Pure Joy!

These babies are just amazing little men and I haven't met them yet! They have been growing great and have kept so healthy from the day of conception. Maybe it's what I'm doing/eating or maybe it's just them. Whatever it is, I couldn't be happier.

Our last ultrasound appointment was this past Wednesday and these boys look great. Some updates from that appointment:

Jaxson (Twin A) - 144bpm.....3lbs 1oz which measures 1 week ahead of schedule
Jayce (Twin B) - 138bpm......2lbs 15oz which measures 4 days ahead of schedule

I still have about 9 weeks to go and if my little men can hold out, they will surely be big healthy boys. The ultrasound went well. Not only are their weight and heartbeats going good but the amniotic fluid is still great and they are even practicing breathing on their own. That is just awesome to see them actually breathing inside me!!

In addition to my ultrasound, I also was tested for gestational diabetes which thankfully came back negative. I was also able to get the H1N1 vaccine as well. So I should now be fully protected.

I mentioned in the last ultrasound post that the pictures didn't make it onto the disk so I have those pictures as well as the new ultrasound pictures to update......who's ready for a slide show??

You can tell by the ultrasounds that they sure have grown over the last month. Our next check-up appointment is November 19th. That'll be the same as the other checks just to listen to their heartbeats and measure them. Then our next...........and maybe last..........ultrasound is December 3rd.

I'll keep you posted!!

Love,
Holly
