and we are having one boy.....and.....the....other...one...is....a....mystery! lol. The other one wouldn't give it up! We tried and tried but their little legs were closed shut! That baby was in a complete fetal position and we couldn't see a thing. We had to work on the little boy--he didn't want to show it either, but eventually he gave it up haha. His name is Jacob :-)
They are both healthy, exactly 8 ounces. My due date is now right around Feb. 14--Valentines Day! lol.
Interestingly enough, I didn't gain a single pound since my last appointment! Which, in my opinion, is a good thing :-) The doctor wasn't concerned. She said I am all healthy and the babies are perfect and everything is wonderful!
My next appointment is Oct. 11 she said we should definitely be able to tell by then (hopefully haha).
So we know Jacob's first name, but not his middle. If the other babe is a girl, his name will be Jacob Alan but if the other babe is a boy his first name will be Alan. So--we don't know. We don't have any boy middle names picked out so we will see. Although--nothing is in stone--we have a few other boy names we really like so it's not too out there to think we might name one boy Jacob Alan and the other one of our fav names. Who knows?! We will decide when we meet them:-)
We both called our Mom's right away when we got into the car. I told my Mom we didn't know about one of them and she said, "You just tell them you are having a baby shower and you HAVE to know! Schedule another appt before you come out here!" I was like, um...that isn't quite how it works. Not to mention I have to pay for those appointments--haha. That's not to say it didn't cross my mind. So, it was a good morning.
I will say I do not plan on ever bringing kids to one of my appointments again. It was not fun. Poor Chris was trying to watch the screen and the 3 year old was just dying for his attention. She was throwing things and she wouldn't stop talking. Definitely not used to hearing the word no. Anyway.
Well that is all. At least we know we are having one boy! Hopefully the other will show their stuff next time haha!
