21 weeks

Let's start off this week with weight gain, because what could be more fun?


Click to see the detail, but the short of it is that I've gained about 30 pounds at this point.  My weight was actually higher yesterday, but since today is my official weigh-in day, I'm left having to round up.  3 weeks to gain 6-ish pounds, which you can see looking at my recent weight gain trend will not be a problem.  But I'm still eager to check off that goal box as accomplished!

Last night, all three babies were active at the same time (in ways I could feel), which is pretty unusual.  Well, very unusual, as in, I'm not sure I've felt all three at once before.  I loved it!


In Brewer Diet news, I've totally been wimping out on the potato.  I eat one every few days, but I just can't do it daily.  If these babies are potato-deficient, I will accept responsibility.

All in all, I'm feeling good, but huge.  Here's what babycenter says about the babies:

How your baby's growing:

Your baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1/2 inches long — about the size of a carrot. You may soon feel like she's practicing martial arts as her initial fluttering movements turn into full-fledged kicks and nudges. You may also discover a pattern to her activity as you get to know her better. In other developments, your baby's eyebrows and lids are present now, and if you're having a girl, her vagina has begun to form as well.
