Wow its been awhile since I posted a journal entry. I find time being swallowed up before I know whats happening. Already I'm approaching the end of week 14 (woot) and officially in the 2nd trimester. I've noticed that my morning sickness seems to be slacking off a bit with the days and time I'm sick getting shorter and shorter each bout and the days I'm feeling good lasting longer and longer between sickness. I'm really glad about that cause being sick kinda sucks.
As christmas comes closer I'm hoping that I'll feel well enough to get the shopping done and almost anyone who asks what I want for christmas gets a standardized responce of "I'm sure you'll think of something but if you can't baby gift cards from Babies R Us would work as well". I know that these 2 kids will be quite the financial strain on the pocketbook but if we manage things right we should be ok. Also with the weather picking up and snow and ice all around I'm being more careful then ever when getting around. I don't want to risk slipping and falling which could be very bad. My sister has suggested I check out some sort of shoe product called Yaktrax or something like that. Apparently its designed to prevent you from slipping on icey walkways and stairs. Not sure how it would work though. Guess I gotta do my research.
As I progress through my pregnancy I'm finding a need for supporting pillows to be growing. I'm hoping to get a body pillow soon to help me stay supported and that in turn should also help me get a more fulfilling nights rest. I seem to wake up all the time. Irksome. I'm also finding that I hope the "heater" system provided by being pregnant kicks in soon. Its getting very cold and being small doesn't make surviving the winter months very easy. Anyway thats it for now i guess.
So much for the morning sickness tapering off. It came back full force for Sunday and Monday and today is the first day I've felt well enough to do anything. I find pregnancy to be full of surpirizes. My sister claims she told me what to expect but every time I turn around it seems theres something new to expirience and either she didn't deal with it or simply forgot to mention it before it happened. Most irksome. I've noticed I seem to show more when I'm not sick then when I am sick. This may have something to do with how much I eat. Less when sick more when not. I can also feel a hard place in my tummy that I think is the twins. Kinda exciting. I do wish for this Morning sickness to go away though. Its not very nice and I'd rather get on to the part of enjoying being pregnant.

Today is a good day so far. Not too much in the way of sickness but in fatigue oh yeah. Got almost no sleep last night. I am grateful however that the sickness seems to be tapering off and I don't spend as many days being miserable as I do being well. At week 12 I'm excited to be getting to the end of my first trimester. Also I've started to show finally. for the first time in my life my stomach sticks out past my hip bones. Sometimes I feel hardish type lumps about 2 inches long and I think thats probably one of the twins. Its really exciting to see all the changes that are occuring. One change I'm not looking forward to that has already started to appear are the back pains. oh goody only 6 more months of that and of course its only going to get worse as the time goes on but other then that I'm really excited about all the changes currently happening.
