Today we finish the 12th week and the first trimester. Hoody Hoo! It&#8217;s pretty exciting to be moving out of the dangerous waters of the first three months and into the next phase of the pregnancy. Unfortunately, I can&#8217;t write for long today, so this is just a short note.<\/p>\n<p>Most of my nausea\/queasiness has gone away as well as a lot of my indigestion. My twins still demand their daily siesta, and I&#8217;ve felt a bit more tired the last week or so. This week headaches started, but after coming to campus and finding many others with the same symptom (because of allergies), I realized, &#8220;Hey, I have allergies! My headaches could be from my allergies.&#8221; I called to check what medicine was okay to take and got started. I feel much better today.<\/p>\n<p>Last night I thought I might have felt a bit of movement, nothing so definite as the first time though. Then, I dreamed that I felt the babies move during the night. A very good dream to have.<\/p>\n<p>Today, I had the first person walk up and touch my belly with a smile and slightly tentative congratulations on my baby-to-be. She was not a stranger but a fellow Spanish grad student, and I got to tell her we were having twins. So, I&#8217;m officially showing enough for someone to come up and say, &#8220;You&#8217;re pregnant!&#8221; And I now know that I don&#8217;t really mind my friends and acquaintances approaching and giving me a belly rub.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re looking forward to a visit from my sister Linda and her children Kate and Eric. They arrive tonight. WooHoo!<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow we visit the baby-ninja! I&#8217;m hopeful we&#8217;ll find out the gender, but I know it is unlikely this early. All is going well. Puck continues to feed me yummy food, though I am a bit tired of eating so much and being hungry and thirsty every 2-3 hours (I never thought I would say that). Only 6 months left to go! Now, back to grading!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today is Thursday which means that another Twin Day has arrived, and it&#8217;s a big one.
