Bair Family Doubles?

1st Ultrasound: 6 weeks 5 days (October 12th 2007)


Pregnant with Twins! Our first ultrasound was on October 12th. We found out then that there were two lil boogers in there. Baby B however they weren't so sure about. His sac was much smaller than it should be even thought both babies were the same size. They told us that Baby B had a 50% chance of catching up. If he didn't, I would have no symptoms, he would just simply vanish. Soooooooooo..........we prayed and we prayed and we prayed and had all our friends pray that Baby B would catch up and be healthy by the next ultrasound.

PRAISE GOD, after the ultrasound on October 29th, the babies are only a few days apart which the doctor said is perfectly normal. Baby A measured 9 weeks and 1 day (heart rate 176) and Baby B measured 8 weeks and 5 days (heart rate 183). ALL GOOD. Now they look like lil tweetie birds. Baby A was moving all around, Baby B was moving too but not as much. It was kinda neat at one point during the ultrasound the yolk sac was perfectly over Baby B's head and it looked like a halo. I joked to Nick, see a girl. :) The tech tried to capture a picture of it but couldn't get it back again in the same position.

What's going on with me? BLAH...the worst smells in the world to me right now are eggs and pizza. I've been eating a lot of peanut butter and apples. I feel pretty sick until about dinner time. Smells drive me nuts though, the trash and the dishwasher. I'm still throwing up but not everyday, just have the all day sickness feeling. I usually feel better by dinner. I've been having dull back pain, the doc said that could be due to the fact that my uterus is tilted against my back and hasn't flipped up into place yet.

2nd Ultrasound: 9 weeks 1 day (October 29, 2007)
