i have two new lovely symptoms to report - an occasional dull headache and a constant back ache, like in my sciatica. the back ache might be from moving stuff, at least i hope it is, 'cause it's WAY TOO EARLY for these babies to be giving me back grief! other than my constant, ravenous, must east every hour or i'll bite your head off appetite, things are pretty good. i'm tired a lot. i have weird food issues that make me even more convinced that i should be a vegetarian (any "whole" meat product - like steak, chicken breast, a pork chop - makes my stomach turn; on the flip side, any tart fruit is fabu). my belly is popping even more, and we'll have to take a picture soon to document. all my normal fitting clothing is pretty much not happening any more. good thing i have a few baggy items that i can still wear.
here's a picture off one of the zillions of pregnancy websites that shows what a 10 week old alien - i mean baby - looks like. now imagine two of these in my belly!
two more weeks until our next appointment and we can finally let this cat (or cats, i should say) all the way out of the bag!

Aren't the little aliens the cutest and strangest things? Wait until you feel them move. Izzie (my little manchild) likes to bury his head in one side of my abdomen, and kick on the other. So I'll have a little head-lump on one side, and he'll be kicking me and punching me a bit further down. It's funny to watch. (I'm 21-22 weeks along at this point.)
I can only imagine having two of them. Once they start moving you'll have a fun time sorting them out. *grin*
Thanks for your comment on my blog, btw. :)
oh- and the backache thing happened to me, too. Around 8 weeks. I think it's the muscles starting to loosen and stretch, and the fact that we haven't gotten used to it yet. Now I'm 5 1/2 months, and have nary a muscle pain. Ahhh.. Blissful 2nd trimester.
