[wanna be a young mother]

I FINALLY made it to 24 weeks!



Which means the twins have a 50/50 chance of survival! If they were to come now the NICU would actually try to save them at this point. This was my first goal (and took the longest to make it to!) and I am so happy we did it!

The three of us are doing GREAT! Had my cervix checked 1.5 weeks ago and it was thick, long and closed! So far no signs of preterm labor and the babies are growing at the rate singles do. I am now doing bi-weekly appts. So my next one is the 8th. At my last u/s baby A was breech and baby B was still sideways. Baby A moves soooo much. She even changes positions during the u/s. I just hope she goes head down soon!

I have my 3hr GTT and I'm sure I'll fail it like I did with Nevy lol. So my sugar intake will be cut off. I have been following the Gd diet since 12 weeks but I do allow "some" sugar but once it's confirmed I'll be stopping all sugar intake. I've gained about 5lbs so far. Which for me it really good! I know once I get strict about the GD diet I'll stop packing on weight. So I'm happy I've gained something.

Well thats it for the good news and now the venting comes....lol

I hurt EVERYWHERE! My hips, back and legs are killing me! I can't remember the last time I had a full night of sleep. All I do is eat and attempt to sleep! I feel like a whale and I'm not even in the 3rd tri yet!

I just hope and pray I can make it to 37 weeks at least! I really want to go full term. My next goal is 30 weeks, then 34 weeks and last 38 weeks.

Well thats it for now. I'll try to keep everyone updated but with packing, moving, building a new house and getting ready for the twins (while chasing Nevy around) leaves me with no time. So as I have time I'll pop in for updates! I hope everyone else is doing well!
