23 1/2 Weeks

If you've ever wondered what you would look like if you had 2 mangos inside you, here it is! At 23 weeks, the babies are the size of Mangos...a little over 1 lb each, and I'm starting to feel it! My back is starting to throb, in addition to my already sore tail bone. Not that they aren't going to be more than worth the pain, 3 months is sounding farther and farther away! At this point, they are moving all day and all night long...I'm starting to wonder if they ever sleep!?



Just so I don't forget once they are here...everyone says that being pregnant during the Winter is the "way to go!" However, I'm starting to think a moo-moo, pool, and a pregnant belly would be better then getting through flu season pregnant with a weak immune system! So far, I have had 3 pretty bad colds/coughs, which is more than I remember having within the past 15 years! I've gone through an entire bottle of children's nyquil...which I feel very guilty about, but it was the only thing that got me to sleep! I've now been sick for over a week now with a slight ear/sinus/respiratory infection. I don't know if I've ever been sick with a "cough" but I now know I never want to be again! Its been a rough week for me and the little munchkins but I stayed home from work the first part of the week and got to spend some QT with Jackson...he even got to lay on our bed with me during the day!:)
