26 Weeks - double digits to go

Another week another pound (or so). 98 days to go - we're both so excited to meet them. I can't believe we're down to double digits. Time has gone so fast!!!

We had another ultrasound on Monday. Everything is looking good, and they confirmed it was two girls. No awkward revelations to a son that we thought he was a girl at first, yay!

They estimated the weights - Twin A 1 lb 13 oz, Twin B 1 lb 10 oz. That's 52nd and 40th percentile, which, assuming you know me because you're reading my boring mommy blog, I'm not thrilled about. I've been working on getting my protein intake higher, so hopefully I can report higher percentiles after our ultrasound next month. And no, just because I'm short and Kurt is average doesn't mean they should be littler babies necessarily :-)

I put together the pictures they gave us for this week so you can kind of see the girls together (Twin A on top, Twin B on the bottom):
The tech called Twin A the show-off because she always seems to be posing for pictures. Twin B is squirmy and harder to catch. 

Here's a picture from a family wedding earlier this summer with Kurt and I comparing bellies (Kurt is pushing his out as much as possible, I'm au naturel). I was at 13 weeks. 

I can't believe I was that small, and that at the time I thought I was big!! I can't even fit into the dress I was wearing at the time, which is a maternity dress.

We'll do an update of this picture sometime soon for giggles.

  2. So what you really meant by having twins is...that you're BOTH having one. Right? ;)

    Love your blog!
