Babies babies everywhere....




It's been awhile since I have posted, and I am sorry about that but I have been teaching and going to Dr's appointments and trying to have a social life on top of it all! These little cherubs in my uterus seem to want me to do nothing but sleep and eat and feel nauseous. 

I am sending this on to all of our family and friends now (this blog was previously just going to our parents until we were out of the "danger zone". Feel free to bookmark this and check back frequently as we will be posting pictures of the babies and my growing belly as the weeks progress. There is a place to comment too, so feel free to tell me how cute the little ones are and how big I am getting! 

I am posting two ultrasound pictures from this morning.  The first one is "baby a " and it is lying on its back. It's head (and cheeks) are lower left and its little body with arm and leg buds are tilted upwards. It kind of looks like a teddy bear right now, and it is so cute!
The second one is "baby b" and it is laying on it's side with it's head taking up a large portion of its body! Hopefully the baby will grow into it's head (hahahah)! They are both so precious, I can't even stand it. 

Next week we see the little jumping beans moving all over on the ultrasound!

2 for the price of 1- So far...

The ultrasound on Sunday went great and everything looks very healthy. We found out that we have 2 yolk sacs which means both embryo's implanted. For now, it looks like we have a multiple pregnancy on our hands. I say "for now" because we really have to wait until we get heartbeat confirmation at 8 weeks. It sometimes happens that the twin "disappears". We hope this does not occur and it only occurs in 30% of cases (70% chance of not happening).So I am sending both little buggers lots of love and encouragement to GROW GROW GROW. 

I feel pretty good. I am really tired...all the time. My bed is the most wonderful place right now. I am almost a zombie. It's good though, I would take sleepiness over morning sickness any day! 

That's all for now, we go in for another ultrasound January 12th. 
I'll keep you posted!
