First Contraction!

Yesterday I had my very first contraction. A couple things happened. First as soon as I got off work I was walking to my truck and I felt very big pressure down there it almost felt like the babies were trying to come out and it literally felt like there was an arm or leg coming out lol I know it sounds weird but that's what it felt like. So I stood there a minute and waited tell it passed it didn't hurt at all but it felt very weird. Then in the car driving home my stomach got very hard all around it tightened up it was hard as a rock. I think that one was a braxton hicks contraction because I heard those are not painful your stomach gets really hard. Then later that night while I was laying down I started getting bloating and a crampy feeling like I was going to start my period or something and it lasted about 30 seconds. Also my back was hurting a little too. In the middle of the night I woke up to what kinda felt like cramps but they went away as soon as I turned over so I think it was just ending. I am glad It didnt hurt and I am glad it was only a couple times through out hrs. I really hope these babies wait longer at least 4 to 5 more weeks! who knows but I cant wait tell they get here! Last night also me and James watched the boys threw my shirt for a good 10 min they were going crazy in there my stomach was going every wear! I love it I am so glad there being so active. Aw I just love my little family!

My belly at 28 weeks


30 Weeks

So I have made it too 30 weeks I'm so happy about that! Its a nice mile stone my next one is to get to my baby shower in 4 weeks. I had another Dr appointment this week and they said baby A is now 3 lbs 2 ounces and baby B is 3 lbs 5 ounces there very close together. They also said they are growing very well for twins that makes me very happy! I'm hoping to get two 5 pounds when this is all over. They also tried to do a 3D ultrasound for us but the little buggers were hiding and would not give a good profile shot so they said will try again next time. The pregnancy has been going pretty good I'm part time at work and trying to relax as much as I can when I can. My next high risk appointment they will start doing the NST test on the baby's I guess I have been doing so well they have not needed to do any yet. The Dr also thinks I probably wont make it to 40 weeks so were hoping for 36 37 weeks if I get that far but will have too see.
