prego update

I haven't taken a new photo yet, but went to the Dr yesterday. I am having these ridiculous pains in my belly, especially with sneezing and deep laughing. I really felt like I blew out one of the kids after I sneezed this weekend. :P The Dr said it is ligament pain (DUH...as a PT I should know that, at least I am not going to rupture my appendix or anything). She said to get a support brace. Sounds like a good plan.
I was concerned I gained too much weight, as my butt and legs are now enormous and I know I am not carrying any children there, but she said I am on track. Ho hum...that's life.
I am at 14 weeks now, but my uterus measures at 20 weeks. Does that mean that they might come early??? Or just that I am going to be quite LARGE carrying these two little bundles???
I went shopping after my appointment yesterday and bought way too many maternity clothes, because I was in a hurry so I just took what looked decent, whoops!!! We do have three weddings coming up so I needed a dress, and work clothes. But I'll have to go through it all and return a few items before my husband has a heart attack.
We'll take more photos this weekend and I'll post those ASAP!

Hey:) Don't worry...your uterus will always measure bigger than the week you're in because you are having twins. Be careful of buying too many maternity clothes early on (I amde that mistake) because you will grow out of them (very quickly). They say you should buy your pre-pregnancy size, but I was a small and then became an XL by the time I was 8 months, and I only had one baby. Everything on me was bigger including my arms and thighs...partly due to water and also fat:( Your belly will also get SO big that the bottom will hang out below the shirts and you'll need XL just to make sure you don't expose skin. It's all beautiful though:) You make me laugh
