Ok ok ok - I'm posting! This whole things is starting to seem very real and very exciting. I have been reading up on what it is like to have twins. There are three phrases/words I keep reading over and over again:
1) exhausting
2) "a blur" (when referring to the first 6 months) and
3) I wouldn't want it any other way (when referring to the time after the first six months).
Sounds like this is going to be one wild ride! Hopefully Michael and I are up to it.
Did some maternity shopping last weekend. Maternity clothes are the best thing ever! I have had trouble with heartburn all my life so, as you can imagine being pregnant, with twins no less, isn't making it any better. Anything less restrictive around the middle is the best in my book. Bring 'um on.
Our ultrasound was exciting and long at the same time. It was Michael's first time seeing the babies as babies and not as kidney beans. But because this was my 1st trimester scan, it was mostly scan, snap a pic, measure, scan, snap a pic, measure, scan, snap at pic, measure……….you get the idea. Not a lot of "Look, see the baby, and see it move" shots. Our babies are measuring where they should be.
My next scan isn’t until 18 weeks sometime in July. We should, if the babies oblige, know the sexes. In the meantime, grow babies grow!
That's what she said anyway ...
