Twin Pregnancy Highlights So Far

I've never been pregnant with a singleton so I don't have anything to compare this pregnancy to, HOWEVER here are some things going on with my twin pregnancy and some of the highlights!
 Sickness in the first trimester was pretty constant but I was used to it then that I didn't realize it! 
I had that constant sick to my stomach feeling with no desire to eat any food (which is very bizarre for me haha.)
 Feeling them both move at the same time is truly MAGICAL! It's crazy that just in their movements I feel like I get to know each one on an individual level already... I will never understand just how amazing it is!
 Back pain started earlier on than I had imagined and I know it is nothing to what it will be! I cannot sleep without my pregnancy pillow and lots of other pillows around. I had my first prenatal massage and it was AMAZING, however I realized I had more knots than I even knew. 
 My breasts have already doubled in size and it makes me scared for when milk comes in cause I hear they double again!!! EEEEEK!!! I already have a maternity bra that I wear 24/7 in hopes of less sag when they go back to normal size hahaha.
 It's true what they say about 2nd trimester... you really do feel so great and have more energy! I'm now reaching the point where my stomach gets in the way and the idea of picking things up off the ground is painful haha. With my growing stomach I feel so blessed to have so many maternity clothing options in today's day and age! This cute dress is a Pink Blush Maternity dress and I LOVE IT!!! 
HOWEVER, with each change in my body, each ache, each pain, each "fun" pregnancy symptom, I FEEL SO BLESSED!!!! I've loving pregnancy and the miracle taking place! I feel more beautiful than ever before and often find myself in awe that my body is growing two beautiful little girls!

Life is a gift and the ability to create life is truly a MIRACLE!!! 
Don't forget it :) Take a moment today to really enjoy the miracles taking place around you each day!
