Blue or Pink












So we went to the multiple specialist on Friday Dec 12th and got another ultrasound.
Their hearts were beating at 159 and 162 BPM that is really good.
Their sizes were only different by less than 4% so that shows no signs of TTTS (big thing to watch out for with identical twins)
They were also both estimated to weigh about 3 oz and are about 4.5 inches in length at 14 weeks and 1 day.
They were both very active and looked like they were giving each other hugs and were head to toe going sideways in my belly.
You can see the 3-D Pictures of them above.

I also wanted to let everyone know that we will be having...drum roll please.....two....identical...little....GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let the room decorating begin :)

Due Date set for June 11th

We are prego!!! It is light but it is there and this is a test that was taken before the box said it would have a possibility of showing if you were pregnant are not. You think we would of had a clue


6 Weeks - Little one doing good
At the first doctors visit we got to see a little heart beat at 122 bpm that is good for the 6 weeks we were measuring. We go back for our second doctor's visit on Nov 3rd for the 8 week ultrasound.

Me: If I let myself get hungry I feel quite sick but once I eat 2 or 3 crackers I'm fine so I have started stashing crackers in my car, at my desk, by my bed and in my purse (can be very messy). Hopefully I won't have to have food tucked away for the entire 40 weeks but i guess it could be worse.



8 Weeks - Little one has a little friend
We had our second ultrasound to day and the doctor said "I told you that you were having more than one last time...right?" - No we distinctly remember you saying that there were no roommates. Well she did some looking around and said she was 95% sure they were identical twins but we would need to go to a specialist to confirm and there are additional risks associated with twins that we need to be on the look out for.


11 Weeks - Big deal Ultrasound
So this week we had two ultra sounds both were pretty big deals. the First one was with Dr. Dryden and her big machine where we say the little ones kicking and punching. The second one was with Dr. Krishon (multiple specialist) where we did the NT scan and got a 3D picture of the little ones. they were in a T shape an one ended up kicking the other one's head as we were watching. They confirmed that they are Mono-Di Identical twins that share one Placenta but each have their own amino sac that the nurse said was as thin as a sheet so they can feel each other but don't actually touch.

I am feeling dizzy and not hungry at all still but I spoke with the nurse and she said that that is normal and that I should not be worried as long as my blood pressure says in check.

On the first is Baby A Then is Baby B then both are together below.
