Its been so long!!! I realized that once Nick and I started trying again for another baby, I didn't want to talk about it with the world (if there is anyone reading out there). I was afraid it would take forever or I would have 20 posts about peeing on a stick to no avail. All of the sudden this journey felt private. But here we are again because WE ARE HAVING TWINS!!! We are 13 and 1/2 weeks along and we are so happy! We have been blessed with not just one baby but two. For me, it feels like God. I feel like I lost two and now I get two. I just keep my fingers crossed daily and pray a lot that all is going well in there and that we make it to the end. So far so good.
The last 13 and a half weeks have been eventful. Morning sickness reared its ugly head, but I am so thankful that its beginning to go away and as long as I eat every two hours or so, I feel ok. I have this belly so much sooner than I did with Gavin. I have to wear maternity pants already. With Gavin, I did not show until 5 months!
Gavin is so happy. We told him the great news after we had our first trimester screening a couple of weeks ago. He could not be more thrilled that he is getting two babies. He was so funny when we told him... he first wanted to me to lay down quietly and told me I should not be cooking soup. He then would tell me all the things they cannot do like watch Ben 10 or things that had vampires. He also told me that each of them should squeeze into his car seat in the car, one on each side, unless of course that would crush their bones. He wants a girl and a boy. We shall see. Maybe the doc will take a peek at Tuesdays appointment and let us know what she thinks!!!
I will keep you posted!
