What a difference three weeks makes.

At my last ultrasound, the babies were literally just little gray blobs with flutters. Today, I got to see them move! They moved around for a few seconds and then stopped. It was pretty amusing.

Today was my first OB visit. We got all of my meds and supplements taken care of. They changed my blood pressure medication... again. I need to schedule my 3 hr glucose test.

Yuck.

But once I've done that, she will put in a nutrition consult. My goal is to not gain weight. I know this is easier said than done, but I only gained around 23 lbs with each of the boys and I'm heavier now than I started with the boys. I have to be very careful. I'm only 10 weeks now, but we have been going on family walks and as soon as I can really cook again, we'll be overhauling the diet around here.

Here's what we know...

We have what they call di/di twins. Di/di stands for diamniotic/dichorionic or two amniotic sacs, two placentas. 20-30% of di/di twins are identical. So there's still a chance of that. We can't rule anything out for a few months at least.

It's TWINS!

We found out on Friday, May 6th, that we are expecting two babies! I went in for a dating ultrasound and got a surprise. They did push back my due date. It is now December 19th.

I am high risk because of my high blood pressure, so now I'm extra special high risk. We'll see how long the doctor will let me go with this pregnancy. I only made it to 37w6d with Garrett because of my blood pressure.
