It is going to be a BOY this time!!! WT and I are so happy! Not because we prefer boy over girl but after having 2 girls, it feels so good to have a boy. At least WT will not be the only "male" in the family. Found out the sex of the baby as early as 14 weeks as I've been having so many ultrasound due to the bleeding. Finally, the bleeding stopped around 19 weeks and I've not seen any since then. Just hope it will stay that way! Baby's heart beats is doing great...around 140-150bpm each time I go for my prenatal check up.
As for myself, I've gained only 12 pounds at 26 weeks. Far from what the doc expect me to gain since I started the pregnancy underweight. I wasn't too worry about the weight issue as I've only gained 30 pounds when I was pregnant with the twins. However, I've been trying to add more calories into my diet. Again, I've been told to eat ice-cream every night!!
Other than that, my toes have been swelling almost every night now due to increase in blood and fluid volume in the body. So before I go to bed every night, I put my leg in warm-hot water. It helps to bring down the swelling as well as the itchiness.
Another bothering symptom that I've been experiencing on and off since a month ago is the Sciartica nerve pain (at the back of my leg from the butt down). Not as bad as the twin pregnancy, so I'm doing okay.
