29.5 Weeks

Stretch marks: So many. 
Sleep: I still wake up to pee once a night and feel pretty uncomfortable through the night. I don't sleep great. It doesn't help that I am a very light sleeper (since becoming a mom) and your brothers get up around 6 am. 
Best moment this week: Feeling constant movements from you and your brother. 
Movement: Still so much movement! You guys are active boys. 
Food cravings: Still sweets. I honestly think I could eat ice cream every single day (but don't). 
Gender: Two sweet boys.
Baby Stats: You each weigh 2 lbs. 11 oz! 
Symptoms: Many of the same symptoms...sore back, swollen feet and fingers, pain in my tailbone, difficulty sleeping, restless legs, but now I'm having Braxton Hicks contractions, mostly in the evenings. They are not comfortable. 
Labor signs: Nope (thankfully). 
Belly button - in or out? Out. Very much out. 
What I miss: Energy, better sleep, my pre-pregnancy clothes, my pre-pregnancy body.  
What I am looking forward to: Meeting you and your brother.






Cute little legs crossed.

Update

Stretch marks: Lots. 

Sleep: I wake up to pee once a night. Last night I didn't sleep well at all because I was so uncomfortable. I tossed and turned (which is not easy to do at this stage in my pregnancy). 
Best moment this week: Feeling you both move at the same time. 
Movement: So much movement! You guys are active boys. 
Food cravings: Still sweets. Sometimes french fries or other salty things. But mostly sweets. 
Gender: Two sweet boys.
Baby Stats: According to BabyCenter.com, you're supposed to be around 1.5 lbs and are the size of a rutabage. 
Symptoms: Many of the same symptoms...sore back, swollen feet and fingers, pain in my tailbone, difficulty sleeping, but now I'm having Braxton Hicks contractions, mostly in the evenings. They are not comfortable. 
Labor signs: Nope (thankfully). 
Belly button - in or out? Out. Very much out.
