First OB appt

Hi friends,
 My DH and I had our first OB appt today. We love our OB. He came in and talked to us about precautions and food and stuff. Then he took us back to the ultrasound room and wanted to do an ultrasound to check the heart beats. Baby A's was 161 and Baby B's was 141. They were music to our ear's. We also got to meet our sonographer. I also got like 5 vials of blood drawn. My OB has agreed to see me every three weeks til 18 weeks and then every other week. I also found out that I will be delivering via C- section around October 23rd.  I can't wait to see our babies next. I can't believe tomarrow I will be 7 weeks.

Our babies

Hi friends,
 I love love writing this update. My babes and I made hopefully the last 3 hour trip to LR this morning. While we didn't know it would be our last appt but we know our clinic is miracle workers. I can say we are having twins :)
this is Baby A : You can already see little legs and arms forming and she has a heart beat of 121. Isn't she beautiful already.


this is Baby B: You can already see his little nose and head forming. His heart beat was 116. Isn't he handsome.

We get to see our miracles in two weeks again. I can't believe we are expecting twins. My babe's and I cried tears of joy when we saw them. We have our first OB appt on Wednesday.
