God touched our hearts so deep inside, our special blessing multiplied. ~Author Unknown
Well, we had our second sonogram today and....IT'S STILL TWINS!!!!
Yes, you read it correctly! Twins! God is so good! He has blessed us times two! We are so thankful and give all the praise, thanksgiving & glory to our Father in heaven! We have enclosed some stats to share with you of Baby A & Baby B.
Stats:
Baby A: 25.3 mm long / 9 weeks & 2 days old / heart rate was 172 bpm
Baby B: 23 mm long / 9 weeks old / heart rate was 183 bpm
Here is what baby.com says about week 9:
Your new resident is nearly an inch long — about the size of a prune — and weighs just a fraction of an ounce. She's starting to look more and more human. Her essential body parts are accounted for, though they'll go through plenty of fine-tuning in the coming months. Other changes abound: Your baby's heart finishes dividing into four chambers, and the valves start to form — as do her tiny teeth. The embryonic "tail" is completely gone. Your baby's organs, muscles, and nerves are kicking into gear. The external sex organs are there but won't be distinguishable as male or female for another few weeks. Her eyes are fully formed, but her eyelids are fused shut and won't open until 27 weeks. She has tiny earlobes, and her mouth, nose, and nostrils are more distinct. The placenta is developed enough now to take over most of the critical job of producing hormones. Now that your baby's basic physiology is in place, she's poised for rapid weight gain.
Thank you for your continual support and prayers! We love you all!
So loved,
Jamie & Ben

Where's the double bubble picture???
ReplyDeleteSo, one is 2 days older than the other. Will they come out the same day? Will you be reminding them that 1 is more older than the other, when they get into the age old argument of who is youngest?
ReplyDeleteJust waiting.... ^_^
