new dr appt @ 15 weeks

Tuesday we went to our doctor's appointment with my new doctor... and I loved her!!! It was like night and day and such a huge relief! We were there for about 3 hours!


We had a great ultrasound and FINALLY got to hear the heartbeats (which were both perfect, one at 141 and one at 148). We could see both little babies (who actually looked like real babies and have grown SO MUCH since the last time we saw them), and I was in awe of how well we could see their spines and ribs. So very cool.


Our tech tried super hard to tell us the sex of the babies, but she just wasn't sure. We thought that was a possibility, but we weren't counting on it, so we weren't disappointed. She let us guess, but never would really confirm one way or another, but we think we had a good feeling for what her guess would be. Still, we are just waiting until our next appointment to be sure.


Here are a couple of pictures from the ultrasound:

This one actually shows both babies heads
(noted by the "A" & the "B")


This was a good picture of one of the babes, but I'm not sure which one!

A little profile of Baby A...

And baby B's face...


A few other random notes:
*One baby is head up and the other head down.
*My dr told me already that when we move in August, I should be "laying and pointing only."
*She also told me that she needed me to be Type A about making sure I was resting enough.
*Long shopping days are over also... one stop, then home to rest.
*15 Weeks measuring 22 Weeks!!!

Shanna!!! My stomach kind of fluttered when I saw the little profile picture of Baby A. Those are just such cute sonograms, and man, I can't wait to meet them! But...I can wait till they're good and ready. :)
