New updates!

Went for my prenatal visit again this morning and guess what! I'm down 2 pounds (from 120.5lbs to 118.7lbs)! I'm so sad and my OB reassured me that I shouldn't worry too much unless my weight kept going down. She also mentioned that with a new diet, pregnant women will normally drop a few pounds for the first-two weeks. Overall, with a 23 pounds gained until this point is quite an achievement according to her. Well, my belly is definitely growing and I noticed more stretch marks than before. Actually, I don't mind that coz I don't wear bikini anyway and it is really a wonderful gift from my twins girls!haha.... Baby A heartbeat is 142bpm while Baby B is 144bpm. Other than that, I'm doing fine.

My next appointment will be in 2 weeks time with Dr Fisher after my ultrasound scan. Then, it will have to depend on that appointment if I still need one more 2 weeks appointment or down to 1 week for the rest of my pregnancy. I was also told that I have to go thru a non-stress test, not for me but for my babies. Think they just strap a device on my belly for 20-30 minutes to check for my babies well-being. According to my diabetes educator, her twins were induced at 30 weeks because they were stressful....

Bought a twin nursing pillow at the Milky Way after my appointment at the doctor's office. I like the colour very much and I hope it is going to be my lifesaver...$53! I guess it is a small price to pay.
