So here it is, my Week 15.5 highlights!
How far along: 15 weeks and 3 days. (40 weeks is July 26th, 2011, but will likely deliver around week 34-37)
Weight: 131 lbs - gained about 16 pounds since finding out I'm pregnant!!
Maternity clothes: YES! Thanks to my Be Band, I've been trying to use as many of my regular pants as possible. Amy gave me a few maternity clothes that were super helpful. Going to Target to buy at least 2 more pants this weekend!!
Stretch marks: None so far. I've been using Vitamin E oil at night as well as Cocoa Butter lotion (day and night). Must keep the three B's supple (belly, back and butt)
Sleep: WEIRD dreams. I'm still getting up to visit my porcelain friend, but only every 3-4 hours. I can no longer sleep on my back.
Movement: None yet :( but based on ultrasounds, these babies are active!!

Belly Button In/Out: In
Cravings: Oranges - which is about how big they are.
Aversions: Nothing anymore. I remember during my first few weeks, I could smell cleaning chemicals a mile away (especially the one's the cleaning crew at work used to clean the toilets)
Gender: Unknown. Leroy and I fell asleep the other night rambling off random boy names. We didn't settle on any. Leroy and "Winston" for now :) LOL

Symptoms: Back pains, but not because of the pregnancy, it's because I can't get comfortable at night. Off to get a body pillow or a pregnancy pillow this weekend!!
What I miss: Getting 6 hours of sleep without waking up. And mojitos.

What I look forward to: Feeling the babies move
Moods: Sleepiness, if that's a mood
Milestones: Amy will head up my Friends baby shower and Mom, Rachel and Rebecca will head up the Family and Family Friends baby shower (I know, nothing to do with babies, but still exciting. No "milestones" so to speak at 15 weeks).
Medical Concerns: None really, but I did ask my doctor about getting a prenatal massage.
Weekly Wisdom: It's not the end of the world if you have three baskets of unfolded laundry sitting off to the side (even if they've been sitting there for 2 weeks).
Worst moment this week: Getting 5 hours of sleep because of going to bed late, insomnia, and trouble getting comfortable.
Best moment this week: Seeing the twins and their little hearts beating on ultrasound.
Very cute :)
