Week 13

The nausea is subsiding and the joy of sharing our terrific news is so fun and exciting.

Week 12

Another wonderful day of scans! We gladly sat through 1.5 hours of measurements and analysis watching every movement. The sonographer said Baby B is the "good child" finding a comfy position to rest for the duration of the analysis with a small hand gesture at times and its little lips opening and closing. Baby A, on the other hand, is a "trouble maker" who did not sit still for a moment trying to flip, cross legs, and show off long arms and legs.

Peter and I decided we could sit and watch our two little wigglers

all day long. Every day is a little miracle! This is just so amazing!

Week 11

Today was my first visit with the nurse practitioner. We got through all the nitty-gritty, then we got to look at the babies! They have grown so much in a week, I just can not believe it. They are right on schedule and you can see all their parts including fingers and toes! Today they were very active. Baby A hogged the screen as soon as the u/s found it. It completely uncurled all the way and shoved Baby B out of the way. Baby B clearly wanted us to know it was there too, so it did non-stop somersaults! It is all so amazing and surreal to us.

Week 10

A very exciting day indeed. Peter and I took a trip to Duke to get an ultrasound. We saw both babies had grown tremendously in two weeks, there heart chambers were becoming more apparent, Peter saw the eyes of one little one, and both were wiggling about like crazy! I think we were both most excited about the movement. It was not just a random fluke that they happened to move, they were REALLY moving around and waving at us. It was the neatest moment ever!
