Quickening

On Saturday, September 17th, I woke up around 5:45 AM to the babies moving. It's such a unique sensation.  It kind of remind me of little bubbles.  My mom was even able to feel one of them on my left side at lunch that day.  I mostly notice them at night when I'm laying down.  A benefit of twins is feeling them earlier!  I learned from my app that it's called quickening and you can start noticing it at 14 weeks.

Saturday continued to be an exciting day because I got the new Fitbit Charge 2, the new iPhone 7, and Seth went and picked up a huge TV.  I guess part of our nesting includes all the latest and newest gadgets!  

I thought I was doing better vomiting wise because I went about 5 days without throwing up, but Thursday hit and I couldn't keep anything down.  I finally had a smoothie and soup so I didn't have to go to the emergency room.  I have had 3 close calls with that now.

On Monday we go in for another ultrasound and will find out the genders.  I'm really looking forward to it.  While I was at my parents for the week we worked on baby shower stuff and we will print the invitations we made once we know the genders in a couple days.

  2. That was an exciting day to feel your babies moving! That was awesome! Your kids will be fun and full of action like you and Seth were growing up too! We sure enjoyed your visit here all this last week. It was fun to do the registry at Babies R Us and make the baby shower invitations and address labels. We are all so excited for you! Glad you felt better today too! Hope next week you feel amazing, especially when you see the babies and find out the genders. Your reveal photos will be so fun to see! Can't wait! Love you guys!
