Howdy Folks...
Life is chugging away over here. Workouts are on hold (again) due to a small bleed that happened yesterday. Ultrasound revealed two happy babies and a small "sub-chorionic hemorage" behind the placenta of Twin A. Its pretty common I guess, and the Dr. said that based on its size its not somthing to worry about, but to take it easy for a week. So that's what I'm doing.
I've gained 3 more lbs for a grand total of 6.5 for the pregnancy. We're 12w 2d today, and I'm feeling really good - FINALLY!!!
Kids had a FUN Haloween and I'll get some pictures up soon I promise... they went trick-or-treating TWICE (not to the same houses) and got way too much candy... so tonight I'm letting them have a candy-fest (eat as much as they like) and after that the rest goes away (ie... Daddy's takin it to work for his co-workers to eat). I'm not anti-candy... but I think they just got WAY more than necessary this year and I'm happy to have it disapear so I don't end up eating a bunch of it too.
Hope everyone is having a GOOD solid start to their holidays. Its so fun to be in weight-gain mode rather than weight-loss mode for the holidays I can't even tell you. Honestly, I almost feel guilty, but I know the kiddos need the expansion and I think I've mentioned before that I'm actually really excited about getting to do a post-pregnancy transformation again, so I'm really enjoying being active and yet eating to gain... its a dichotomy I've not encountered before, and its really kinda fun!

I seem to recall someone giving me support about weight gain this time last year...hmmm..who was that?
OH YEAH IT WAS YOU!
Don't feel guilty. The karma you will receive from this is so worth any amount of weight you take on. And besides, it will give me another person to bitch about post-pregnancy weight gain with. yay!
