Today was our second doctor visit and we FINALLY got to meet our OB dr who will be taking care of us for next 7 months. I am exactly 9 weeks and one day today. Dr Ali is very nice and is super excited about the twins. We will be going to Springfield to deliver, which is great because they will get the best care there. My next appointment will be in Springfied for some genetic testing and a more in depth ultrasound to see if we have a high or low risk for certain genetic diseases. Basically checking to make sure everything is normal with some routine blood tests and ultrasound. After that we will see Dr Ali on March 11th for our 3rd visit. He said my lab work looked outstanding and was so excited at how healthy Justin and I are.
We have made some major changes in our life since finding out about the twins. I have decided to hold off on school and focus on being a mom. Justin and I felt that this was the right decision for our family. We have wanted a family for a long time and now that we are expecting twins it is better if I just enjoy the pregnancy and focus on the babies. So with that said, it has been hard for me to not be busy 24/7 ,but it is nice at the same time since I have been dealing with alot of morning sickness.
We did get another ultrasound today with Dr Ali and both babies look good. They both have a heartrate of 160 ( normal is 110-160) and they actually look like they got a little bigger. I could be imaging this but to me they look bigger :) So for right now that is the story.... we are just relishing our time we have together now and look forward to seeing how these two develop in the next couple of months.
Enjoy this time Kim... I know it's hard to adjust to, but relax and rest up. You are going to need all your energy :)
