At least 1 boy...baby B was very cooperative at letting us peak but baby A wouldn't spread the legs :). We're so excited to know the gender of at least 1 of the babies. We'll have another ultrasound in 4 weeks so baby A has another chance to show the goods :).
It was the anatomy scan today so the ultrasound lasted about 1 1/2 hours. I was getting tired of laying by the end of it but when there are 2 babies everything has to be done twice. It was an amazing experience to see both the babies and watch them move around. 4 weeks ago I couldn't make out they were even babies but today it was very evident. In fact at one point baby A was kicking Baby B right in the nose. It was truly amazing to watch. The whole time I was laying their all I could think was Thank You Lord for Your creations.
Both babies weigh 9 oz. and are right on size for 18 weeks. Everything looks healthy and beautiful.
Baby A (head on the right). He/She is stretching and arching his/her back at this point.
Baby Boy (head on the left). He is laying perfect for the camera :)
It is now becoming more evident everyday that I'm pregnant. I have had to have the talk with many of my students about not touching my belly. "You can look but you can't touch!" I had a 4th grader last week tell me, "Mrs. Krober, your belly is getting bigger and bigger every day!" All I could do was agree.
18 Weeks
Because of the multiples I will most likely not make it to 40 weeks. In fact my goal is 37 weeks so I've hit the half way point in this pregnancy. It is incredible to think I'm half way to meeting my babies. The babies I've been praying for for many years. Thank You Lord!!!!!
