Pregnancy

Well, we found out that we have two babies growing right now! One Twin, Twin A, is growing right on track and has a great heart beat. Twin B is lagging behind a little in the growth area, but still has a strong heartbeat. The Doctor said to come back in two weeks for another ultrasound, in which time two things may happen. One, Twin B will catch up in development and will progress normally, or Two, Twin B will not make it and be absorbed by my body. So, we could still use some prayers thrown our way and hope for a positive outcome in a few weeks.

It is funny though, Jim, Bryden and I have all been saying "babies" for the last two weeks. I guess we all kind of had a hunch that there were two in there. We also named them when we found out we were pregnant, Kiwi and Pip, and Jim and I have been referring to them as such. It is interesting, because Twin B is Pip, very fitting, since right now he/she is a little 'pipsqueak'.

Our due date is February 25, 2009, though usually people deliver 3-4 weeks early with twins!

Thanks for your thoughts and prayers, both of yesterday and of tomorrow!

Pip may be a pipsqueak but I think he/she is going to be a fiesty little one and make up for the slow start. I am familiar with this personality ;) Strong feeling of this since you told me on the phone. Hope all is well. Sending my love to all of you. C
