Well for the past couple days I think I've been having some Braxton hicks contractions. My lower abdomen gets a tightening sensation and it's a little painful... It doesn't last long though. I usually go have a bath or rub lotion on my belly to help with the uncomfortableness. I don't remember if I ever even had Braxton hicks with my 1st daughter...
TMI- Another weird thing that happens is my crotch actually hurts!! If I'm sleeping and I go to roll over and move my leg up, I get this awful feeling in my crotch that's seriously painful!! I've never felt anything like it before that's for sure... I'm going to mention it at my appointment. Ita almost like a huge amount of pressure pain or something, kind of hard to explain...
My breasts have been leaking like crazy too... And it looks like my belly button will pop out soon! It's flat right now instead of an inny.
I've been so uncomfortable at night mainly. Rolling over, waking up every 30 minutes it seems. My back kills!! I feel huge. I can barely get my own socks on :(

On a plus side, I can't wait to have my 2nd 3D ultrasound on the 20th! So excited to see our girls faces this time.They move and kick so much it's crazy now. I love feeling them with my hand and taking videos. My daughter loves feeling them, then she says "okay mommy, let's let them rest now" lol. She's so sweet.

Were moving in May to a house which is awesome! Today we got a swing set for our daughter for the backyard. She's going to be so excited I can't wait to see her face :) I figured she needs something special just for her this summer since a lot of changes are going to be made with my twins being born.

Can't wait till our girls gets here and it'll be the 5 of us :)

I had wicked 'lightning crotch' from about 30 weeks with Nina, doctor said it's an extension of round ligament pain. Didn't make it any less comfortable, but knowing helped me freak out less, since I hadn't had it at all with my son!

I had that same pain at 20-21 weeks it was awful and was even worse if I say crossed legged I would go to move one of my legs and have to stop because I experienced and awful jolt of pain that took my breath away! But mine hasn't been so bad lately and some days not at all so hopefully yours will be the same way my doctor told me it's just my pelvic muscles loosening

Does your pelvic area feel sore? That's how mine felt throughout most of my pregnancy and it was the weirdest feeling. It was totally normal though and ended up going away by the end (when babies were higher up).
