How Far Along: 19 weeks and 2 days
How Big are the Babies? They are each about the size of a mango (I think in crown to rump measurement, that's how long they are...)
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Eek... I've gained a few more pounds these past few weeks!
Maternity Clothes: I'm still wearing most of my own clothes. I have one pair of pants that I can still button, but everything else I have to wear a Belly Band to hold up my pants. I just borrowed a lot of maternity shirts and dresses from my coworker, so that's nice. I need to get some pants now, though.
Movement: I still can't feel those little guys! I had another appointment today, and my doctor seemed a little surprised, but she also said because of the positioning of my placenta, I might not feel them as soon as other people would.
Belly button in or out? Normal. Innie.

What I miss: Sleeping without coughing all night--ugh! I can't kick this bronchitis.
Milestones: Hitting the halfway mark (counting 38 weeks as my max)!
Food Cravings: Eggs?
Aversions: Fried food
Best Moment this week: Dr. Hollar chasing them around to hear their heartbeats as they squirmed all around my belly.
What I'm looking forward to: Seeing the boys again on Dec. 20th for our next ultrasound :)
At our appointment today, the doctor measured my uterus for the first time. I'm measuring at 28 weeks! That's crazy!! Especially because I don't feel like I have really popped yet. She said I could have a deeper pelvis and she commented on my "tight abs". I liked that :) Funny because I don't really have tight abs, but it was nice to hear. I feel like my uterus is growing lengthwise but not outwards. Oh well, I know I will get huge one day soon!

Wow, what a blessing, Emily! Congratulations! (Yes I know you're nearly five months now, but I am barely getting caught up on the lives of blog-friends!)
