You can see how much my face has changed in the first one. And the second one shows the babies. I still need to focus on gaining more weight. But it is hard with the limited room in my stomach.
Tim and I had a very nice weekend as I was feeling much better. We made lasagna and decorated for Christmas on Saturday. Sunday we made french toast and went to the warm water therapy pool. I feel much better after swimming, but I am exhausted...so it is a trade-off. Yesterday I told him that I was more tired after floating in the water for 55 minutes than I was after the triathlons.
I am still not positive if I am feeling the babies kick or not. I keep thinking I do, but it is so fast and light that I am not sure. The books say anytime now, so I am very ready. The books also say that ultrasounds will now be able to detect the babies sexes, so we are very hopeful for the appointment on Dec. 22.

Barbara Luke scares every single triplet-mom-to-be silly about gaining weight and makes her feel guilty if she doesn't gain four hundred pounds in the first 20 weeks of her triplet pregnancy.
I lost over 30 pounds in my triplet pregnancy - I couldn't keep ANY food down for my first 30 weeks, and after that, I just didn't have any appetite because the babies were squishing my stomach.
But my doctors were never TOO worried about my weight gain provided that the babies were adequately growing and they could keep me adequately hydrated and keep my iron levels at a reasonable level. They told me to stop worrying about the scale, and focus more on how I was feeling and how the babies' growth was doing. That made me feel a lot better about how things were going.
