SO yesterday, we had our first level-2 ultrasound at the hospital. They took 110 pictures of my insides and the babies, and here are the results:
- I have a “cervix of steel” according to the nurse. Eric was so proud. But it is good and thick, which means those babies aren’t going anywhere for a good long while!
- Both babies are developing normally. They liked what they saw in their brains, their hearts, and the rest of their development.
- Both babies are very acrobatic at the moment: flipping, kicking, flailing a bit. I still don’t feel them much, but from the pictures, I can’t imagine it will be long now!
- AND…since you’re all dying to know…Baby A weighs 9 oz. and Baby B weighs 11 oz. Good sizes for both!
Oh, and here are some pictures for you, too!
Baby A (Righty):
(A face looking down from the top and two little feet)
Baby B (Lefty):
(a little profile and one foot with all its toes!)
Oh, and did I forget to mention that Baby A is our boy and Baby B is our girl?
Happy Thursday!
I was totally wondering if you were going to say and then the last sentence was my answer.
How wonderful a pink one and a blue one. I am so happy for you! That is uber cool!
Congrats are your darling healthy two babies!
So fun to have one of each!! Congrats! LOVE the photo of the feet and toes. God is SO AMAZING!
I’m so excited that you get one of each, just like I did! What an exciting journey you are on!!!
I’m so excited for you! Congratulations!! I can hardly wait to meet them…but, we have to!!
awe…one of each, how neat!! Congrats
SOOO exciting that I was willing to wait for the comments page to load to tell you congratulations!!!! I am so happy for you!
Kimberly’s right – you should go to the dentist. Although she’s wrong on the calcium thing – they don’t suck it out of your teeth, just take what you’re putting into your body before your teeth get any more of it. Buy some flossers instead of trying to use regular floss – that’s what got me to start flossing. And they told me I had to floss twice a day while I was pregnant, too because I have a very acidic pregnant environment. You should really go, at least to hear their recommendations on what you should do differently since you’re pregnant. It changes your whole body, even your teeth and gums!
Anyway… congratulations again! My friend Joan in Columbus has one of our bouncy seats. If you want it, I’m sure she’s done with it by now, and we can get it to you!
LOL, I love the kudos for your cervix. Yay for one of each kind of baby!!!!!!
cervix of steel!!! now that’s a badge of honor ! LOL!
That’s so great!!! Wow…God is so good. Enjoy not feeling them as much because when they start they won’t stop and then you will be like me and be up until 1 am with all the kicking. 🙂 not that i’m complaining…
