14 weeks

Officially, no matter how you look at it, in the second trimester now.  Woohoo!  Yay us!

Here's what babycenter has for me:

How your baby's growing:

This week's big developments: Your baby can now squint, frown, grimace, pee, and possibly suck his thumb! Thanks to brain impulses, his facial muscles are getting a workout as his tiny features form one expression after another. His kidneys are producing urine, which he releases into the amniotic fluid around him — a process he'll keep up until birth. He can grasp, too, and if you're having an ultrasound now, you may even catch him sucking his thumb.
In other news: Your baby's stretching out. From head to bottom, he measures 3 1/2 inches — about the size of a lemon — and he weighs 1 1/2 ounces. His body's growing faster than his head, which now sits upon a more distinct neck. By the end of this week, his arms will have grown to a length that's in proportion to the rest of his body. (His legs still have some lengthening to do.) He's starting to develop an ultra-fine, downy covering of hair, called lanugo, all over his body. Your baby's liver starts making bile this week — a sign that it's doing its job right — and his spleen starts helping in the production of red blood cells. Though you can't feel his tiny punches and kicks yet, your little pugilist's hands and feet (which now measure about 1/2 inch long) are more flexible and active.

And as it turns out, I got to see these three little squinting, grimacing (gee, this isn't as cute-sounding as I intended) little people today!  Had an OB appointment with Dr. Uribe.  In stark contrast to the previous two appointments in that office, I didn't have to wait very long!  Got called back at 11:06 for an 11:00 appointment.  Waited another 30 minutes or so in the exam room, but I'll take a 40 minute wait over a 2 hour wait any day.  Much better.

It was a quick appointment.  Weighed in (their scale said 165, but mine this morning said 165.6-- I think their's is off).  Tried to pee in a cup, but my performance anxiety/shy bladder got in the way (and I ended up having to chug massive amounts of water and wait it out afterward).  Dr. Uribe came in and checked out the babies on ultrasound.  Everyone is present and accounted for.  Baby A (closest to my cervix) had a heart rate of 160, Baby B (mid-uterus, to the left) had a heart rate of 160, and Baby C (fundal, a/k/a at the very tip-top of my uterus) had a heart rate of 158.  They've all stretched out and claimed their own third of the real estate-- so far no kicking each other in the head, though that's definitely coming.

My uterus is measuring at 20 weeks now-- so actually less ahead than last time (I think I was 11, measuring 18, so I've lost a week).  I am definitely showing, though.  I got my first comment about the pregnancy from a stranger yesterday-- a woman asked me if I'd like to try some ice cream and when I said yes, she added "I know the baby wants some!"  So then of course I had to say "3 babies!" just to watch her eyes bug out.  Hee hee.

That's about it.  We're headed to Houston tomorrow, to introduce the trio to their family.  I might have a little surprise for the family too... stay tuned for that.
