Quick Twins Update


We (me and the twins) had a doctor's appointment today for a basic check-up: weight, heartbeat, and growth checks. No ultrasound this time around, so it wasn't a very fun appointment.
Everything checked out A-OK. Baby A's heartbeat was 147 and Baby B clocked in at 157, both well within the normal range. According to the doctor, my weight and blood pressure look great (so of course I treated myself with some candy) and I'm measuring at 19 weeks, which is normal for carrying twins (approximately two weeks ahead of my actual 17 weeks).
After a quick blood donation to check for unfused spinal cords, I was on my way with a whopping 30 minutes to myself before I had to be home for our babysitter. Very exciting day indeed :)

  1. so glad to hear that all is going well. Hopefully the doc gave you something to ease the sickness. I'm so excited to meet the 2 newest heppers and follow their lives! Will you be finding out the sex of the babies? If so, when, when, when? Then I can starting thinking of a new name for the blog :-)
    Miss you all!
