You’re right. It’s any major temp change, or just letting the twins get cold that really makes life unbearable. I’m lucky that the pain has never pushed me into puking, but I think I am more fortunate in that category than you were.

But seriously, the pain goes away after birth? I was honestly fearing breastfeeding, thinking that this was only a minor showing of things to come. So maybe this sensitivity doesn’t herald anything worse? Oh, that would be wonderful.

Kara was likewise uncooperative. We had a “pretty sure” at 20, but no “definite” till 33. That was scary hard for me because I wanted a girl so much.

Ah, boob pain. It’s nasty, innit? Look for it at any relatively sudden drop in temperature. Even during the summer I had a few times where the difference between the outside warm and the hospital AC was enough to send me into the womens’ room crying and vomiting for half an hour. I can assure you, though, it blessedly leaves when the critter comes forth.

Yeah for a great check up! :) As for the boob issue, it helped me to wear bras ALL THE TIME while I was pregnant – more support, less pain. I’m really sympathizing with you on that pain. I don’t think mine was nearly as bad as what it sounds like your pain is, but I know how tender they can be. Oh – hey….if your finances will let you, get a 4-D ultrasound at 18 weeks and then closer to your due date. It is kind of creepy to see how alien-like they look at 18 weeks, but it is worth it to see a “before” and after picture at about 38 weeks. It is amazinhg because Olivia looked EXACTLY like her 4-D ultrasound at 38 weeks when she was born. :) Plus, they make you a really spiffy video. I wish we did it with RJ and Jimmy. Get some rest when you can! :)

Glad everything’s going so well! And yay on the one-pound weight-loss. I know they always say you should be gaining weight but my doctor told me both times that as long as you’re not wasting away and the baby’s growing properly, it’s okay. Emily never cooperated in the ultrasound so we didn’t know that she was a girl until she popped out. And, yep, boob issues suck and they’re totally normal. Just wait till you give birth :)

Well, aside from the boob issue, sounds like everything is coming along swimmingly well! Congratulations on all the great metrics!
