Monday I had to go in for the glucose test and found out I passed (yay)! I was not going to be a happy camper if I had to go back in for the 3 hour test! That sugary drink is the worst and I had a tummy ache the rest of the day because of it :(
Yesterday was my check up with my OBGYN and everything looks good! Both babies are still measuring a little big for 26 weeks, they are now over 2 pounds each and about the size of a head of lettuce! It's amazing how much the move around and will completely rotate day-to-day and week-to-week. Their kicks and jabs are getting stronger and stronger and it's so funny watching my belly move when they are dancing around. When the babies are moving I try putting Jayden's hand on my belly so she can feel them but she doesn't quite get it. Also, now when Jayden tries to sit on my lap, she's starting to find out she's running out of room and will try to push back on my belly to make more room. Little does she know this belly is only getting bigger the next 11 weeks!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope! But this week I did start to get heartburn and indigestion…luckily I just so happened to buy a HUGE thing of Tums at Costco a few weeks ago! Such a lifesaver!
