Another doctor appointment and all is going well

I had my appointment with my OB today and everything went very well. The babies all look great. They are all kicking and squirming around. We could see all their little bones and spine and everything. Pretty cool but also pretty weird looking. The sono tech gave her predictions of the sexes of the babies and her predictions were the same as the peri's. I didn't tell her what the peri predicted beforehand because we didn't want to sway her predictions. She was definitely for sure about baby A being a boy. She was pretty sure about baby C being a girl but was totally guessing about baby B being a girl. As of right now, it looks like our boy is the most active of the bunch. He was all over the place. Here is a picture of baby A...


Baby B was giving her the biggest trouble. She was squished between the other two and it was very hard to get anything on her.


Baby C was so cute in this picture she has her hands up by her face. It looked a little like she was sucking her thumb. I think this was the best picture out of all of them. I was a little disappointed at the views during this sonogram because they were so hard to make out. I wish she would have done all of the pictures like baby C - one shot per picture.


An update on me... my blood pressure is still excellent. Hopefully my history of very good blood pressure will help later in the pregnancy. My weight gain is improving a lot! I have gained 4 pounds just since my last appointment a week and a half ago! And Craig says I am not gaining enough... Oh and I did get clarification of my true initial pregnancy weight. It is just as I figured, the weight they started counting was my weight at my first official maternity visit. They don't take into consideration the weight I was two or three weeks before when I was pregnant and had to come in early for the spotting. So, since the beginning I have gained 8 pounds, maybe even more if you count my weight at the very beginning before I graduated from the fertility doctor. I feel so much better about the weight issue. I was thinking there is no way I have only gained a pound...with my stomach the size it is.

Oh... and we did get all the furniture moved around this weekend. I am very surprised and pleased with how well everything fits. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I thought it was going to seem much more cluttered with wall-to-wall furniture and I was afraid I wasn't going to be able to find a place to store small things in the closets. I guess my organizational skills are paying off. :)

That is about all for now... I have my MOM's meeting tomorrow night, so I will let you know how that goes.
