and we are having a boy and a girl!!! YAY! I am so happy. That is exactly what I wanted :-) I knew it too, everyone tried to tell me two girls (before we knew about the boy) or two boys but I just had a feeling it was a boy and girl :-) I almost didn't even question it. I just felt like it was a boy and girl :-)
Now, today she couldn't see the bottom of the boy so she couldn't double check, but at our last appointment she was almost 100% positive it was a boy. Today she said she definitely saw a girl. I have an appointment with the actual doctor on the 22nd and he can really differentiate between the two bodies (our midwife has a harder time with twins). She didn't question the sexes, but she has a harder time because she doesn't see too many twins--just because not too many people with twins use midwives and there are so many midwives in the valley the chances of her getting a lot of twins is low. So I am excited about that appointment because I have yet to meet the doctor, and he is going to do an ultra sound and double check to make sure everything is good to go. There is no reason to think otherwise, it's just a policy for him to see us because we have twins. So yay :-) I'm so happy. Everyone is happy and healthy too, good weights and sizes and heartbeats. :-)
My appointment today was pretty cool. It was a group of 3 women all due around the same time. We went over nutrition and myths of pregnancy. We talked about what was normal and abnormal. It was also cool because we got to do all of our own vitals. Like I got to check my proteins and stuff in my urine (sounds weird I know but it's actually kind of cool to play a part in your own prenatal care), and weigh myself, and do my own blood pressure. Then we chart it all visit by visit to compare and make sure everything is looking good.
Chris got to feel the babies for the first time today. They finally kicked hard enough for him to feel. He cried :-) Isn't that cute!
I did too though, I was so happy for him to feel them finally. I love that he really wants to be involved. He comes to every visit, and asks questions and helps me ask my questions and stuff. I really appreciate that about him :-)
Pics to come!
