Tomorrow for me too!!
Had my 18w appt today and the babies were kicking up a storm! As I was reading a magazine in the waiting area, the babies kept kicking the magazine right off my belly! I thought it was early for that but it was too funny. I even jumped a few times because it scared me. LOL!
While the OB was doing the doppler, the babies tried to kick the probe off too. My OB was laughing and said "well, I'm not worried about THESE two!" I've gained 13 lbs in 18.5 weeks. I asked if I was doing OK because I've been getting comments from people about "are you sure it's not quads, you're huge!" and "wow, you're as big as I was when I delivered!" and "Holy CRAP, you've already gained 10 lbs in 17 weeks!" GEE THANKS. But my OB was so sweet. He told me to "tell them that they don't kow **** I see pregnant women all day long and you're doing PERFECT!" WHEW! ha ha! I should have asked him to write me a doctor's note with that on it. :-)
Tomorrow is my BIG ultrasound and I'm on pins and needles about it. Can't wait to see how big they are, how healthy they are and WHAT they are!!! 2:30 Seattle time...CAN'T WAIT!

Ah yes, some people mistake pregnancy as a carte blanche opportunity to make stupid comments. You're baking twins, Sandy, weight gain is HEALTHY and normal.
I'm anxious to read your results from the u/s and sending you good luck for cooperative babies!
Hugs,

I think I am more excited for all of you ladies, then when I went for mine. I gues my additude about this pregnancy has been crappy...I mean I completely care- but a girl we could recycle clothes and girlie things, a boy meant lots of extra $$ and we don't have that to spend. So I'm waiting to hear about all 4 babies today (urs and the other ladies)! I hope they show off. Oh- and on the weight..I just came back to find out in 3 months I gained 11 freaking pounds. I guess all that crappy food has found it's target. Ugh. I think thats 11-15 and I'm only 22 weeks. I gained that my entire first pregnancy. Oh dear- I just have to do better. But for you, you have two babies..I almost typed boys..wonder if thats a sign?! LOL Let us know when you can.
