Officially Over Half-Way!

This week marks 21!  I can't believe how fast, yet slow this pregnancy is going!  This week the twins are the size of bananas...measuring about 10.5-11" in length and 12-13oz each!  Its only been 2 short weeks since our last scan and these little ones have nearly doubled in length!  

Overall this last week has been great!  I'm still worried about heartburn, so I've been avoiding onions ๐Ÿ˜ญ (I really like onions!) and eating later, which also seems to contribute to heartburn.  I've also learned from experience that pizza and marinara sauce also tend to contribute to the burn... So I'm willing to give up the marinara, but I'm going to have to get creative about the pizza sauce, because I LOVE ๐Ÿ• pizza!! 

I'm in the "sweet" spot of pregnancy now, so they say!  Morning sickness is actually limited to mornings (unless I forget to snack), headaches have been on the downtrend, my size isn't too limiting or uncomfortable yet, and I'm trying to keep my heartburn in check. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜œ

I also am enjoying this stage because not only can I feel the babies moving, but others can feel them also, which is always exciting to be a part of!  It also helps me to feel relieved that they are happy and thriving in there... enjoying the limited space that is continuing to diminish by the day... seriously ๐Ÿฅด๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผ‍♀️.

Two more weeks until my glucose test and 23 week ultrasounds are taken so here's to hoping the next few weeks are smooth and uneventful๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿฅฐ!
