We went to the doctor yesterday because I was having some bleeding and cramping. I wasn't real concerned, but wanted to go in just to be sure - I'd rather be safe then sorry. Well, Dr. Nett put to doppler on my belly to hear the heartbeats and there they were - loud and strong. Baby B's was real fast and Baby A was a little slower (but still fast and right on target) - well Mike is now convinced that they are a boy and a girl because of the different heartbeats! We are very eager to find out what they are and we will be able to find out the Tues prior to Thanksgiving.
Well, because she heard the heartbeats she said that my chance of having a miscarriage is less then 1% - so we are basically out of the woods and feel so blessed that the Lord is giving us two children! Man - what a blessing! It is still a little hard to wrap our minds around it and at times it will hit me and I have to pause with emotion. We are just thanking the Lord for this blessing and praying for His guidance and wisdom in raising two children (and hopefully more to come).
I have also been having some "movement" feelings and was curious if was the babies or just gas that feels different. They movements have been isolated to my left side (which is the side I am pregnant on) and so I was sure it was the babies but asked my doctor to be sure before I spread the news. She said I should be feeling them by now because they are twins. So, that is exciting that I can actually rejoice when I feel it and not just think it is gas or something. I look forward to the day when Mike can feel them too! That will be lots of fun for the both of us!
Well - Friday marks TWELVE WEEKS!!!!! PTL!!! End of our first trimester!
