16 weeks


Well I have officially started to swell up like a balloon:) My ankles are so swollen and my gigantic size 10 shoe no longer fits. And my maternity clothes are no longer fitting either...I can't seem to keep up with this fast growing belly. Yesterday, I had my first cervix check and everything looks great and they say I am starting out with an extra long cervix which is a good thing. Now, I will have weekly appointments to monitor this to be sure its not shortening. To my surprise I also got to see the babies. They have grown so much in the past 3 weeks. They actually look like babies now and not aliens and I am afraid to report that they may have the Hopperton's head...their heads are huge..good thing I am having a c-section!! The ultrasound tech also took a guess on the gender. We first checked out Baby A and there were 3 little lines so we are pretty sure that is a girl. Baby B wasn't cooperating all that much but the tech said if she had to guess she would say a girl. So I started getting a little nervous....3 girls...oh no:) Then we looked at Baby C and there it was plain as day...showing off his stuff...its a boy for sure! So we are thinking 2 girls and a boy. I have another hour and half ultrasound next Thursday that will be looking at the anatomy and the development of the babies. I have become so spoiled seeing them so regularly. We are so very BLESSED!
