Simply Amazing!


Today was the first OB appointment, and it was simply amazing! First it was just a relief to see them all alive and well.(Not sure why I keep having such anxiety about that???) We had another sono and all of the babies are doing just fine. They have grown from 14 and 15mm to 26 and 28mm in just 2 weeks. (I can't quite picture what 28mm looks like...if you want to convert it, 1mm=.039 inches). Based upon the size, one of the twins is a day younger then the other two. In a normal pregnancy, two of the babies would be due on 10/31/09 and the smaller twin is due 11/1/09. Kind funny! Anyways, the heart rates are good, they are between 162 and 166 beats per minute. We actually got to hear the heart beats today. And the best thing about the appointment was we could see the babies moving on the sonogram. It was just so cool. Their little arms and bodies in there moving. I can't even explain how awesome it was. Anyone with children probably knows...


Marcus mentioned today that in talking to his mom, they discussed the different personalities we will be dealing with. It is already staring to show. One of the twins is hogging the fetal sac. One is horizontal and the other is vertical. Poor things! I posted pics of the babies. They are finally starting to look like little tiny people in there. The last 2 sonograms they were just little blobs of human life. Now you can see their arms and make out the heads and bodies. I can't wait for appointment 2!

  1. God is so good. Isn't is amazing how he forms a life, well in this case "lives". And from the perspective of a scientist....my mind always works overtime. I just pray for my babies to be healthy and happy in there, and it looks like my prayers are being answered. Today is all we really have so I am trying not to rush tomorrow.
    Love you!
