18 1/2 Weeks and Counting




We had our level 2 ultrasound today at St. Johns. Doc ordered it because there are two babies. It took about an hour as opposed to about 15 minutes and they looked at all the organs in detail. They did confirm that they are pretty certain it is a boy and a girl! I'm kind of glad they aren't both the same sex if not only because they switched which one was baby A and baby B! I didn't know that was possible! I have my regular OB checkup on Tuesday and will clarify then. They said that the boy, who was B, is now lower so they called him A. Here's pix of both their heads and the boy's profile. The girl was not very cooperative and had her head facing toward my back the whole time, so they didn't get a great picture of her. The tech said I was going to have my hands full with her. We shall see!
Some stats:
Girl hr 154
Boy hr 142 (both are down from 163 BPM)
Both weigh 12 ounces, in terms of grams the boy is just a little heavier, but both are growing at the same rate so that is good news.
