One heartbeat??

This past week has been great! We got to see our little ones again through another ultrasound on Tuesday. We were at our doctor’s appointment and our doctor was trying to find the heartbeats and only one was really distinguishable again. So, we checked it out just to be sure. And, they are both doing great!! And, we found out the reason for our problem. They are both laying right next to each other and they both have the same heart rate. So, the doctors couldn’t tell them apart. So, I have a new theory that we either have two boys or two girls… And, we get to find out next Monday! So, stayed tuned Monday afternoon for our blog update!! Until then, please make sure to cast your vote in our quiz. It looks like most people think we are having a boy and a girl so far. So, we will see…

Updates on me… I have been feeling so much better! My brain feels like it is back to normal and the nausea is slowly going away. My belly is continuing to grow (I have included a new belly shot for all of you that are out of town). I am now at the point where I may have to start wearing some of Chris’s t-shirts. Mine are all getting too tight. And, I think my belly is officially bigger than Chris’s now. (Please let me know what you think once you see our latest pic.)

Baby update… We are now 17 weeks and the babies should have doubled their weight in the last two weeks. Their lungs are beginning to exhale amniotic fluid and the circulatory and urinary systems are working. Their hair is continuing to grow on their heads and their eyebrows and eyelashes are starting to fill in.

This is so fascinating to me! It is amazing how God makes our bodies create life. I am really starting to feel blessed that I get to experience this!
