13 Weeks 6 Days

Xmas and Boxing Day

Well the twins had their first Xmas yesterday.  If you can count in my womb.  In the morning we went to visit Adrians family for breakfast then we picked up Oriana and went to Justyne, Dave and Morgans place at Kooralbyn.  It was a very warm day but luckily a storm came by just before dinner and cooled the place down.  We had a fantastic roast which I could have eaten over and over again and then finished off with a triffle.  I think the twins were very happy with the food selection today.  Mum got me some Maternity clothes for Xmas. Am very comfortable now as my belly is starting to push out.



Lets start a competition...  What sexes do you think they are?

13 Weeks 2 Days

So we now have a new due date : 26th June 2013

Went to see Dr Carmody today for the 12 - 13 week scan.  We had this lovely lady that did our ultrasound. Here is the first snaps of Possi and Billi.  Possi is Twin 1 and Billi is Twin 2.




Both at 13 weeks are very healthy.

Heart beats - 165 & 169
Length - 66mm and 70mm

Possi wasn't really to interested in us today and was more interested in sleeping.  Took the lady around 10 - 15 mins of nudging my stomach and me coughing for Possi to turn around so we could see the arms and legs etc.







 This is Billi.  Billi has already implanted "himself/herself" as the dominant twin.  Taking the top bunk and stretching out as much as possible.  Billi was also often hogging the limelight getting into Possi's pictures.









As there are two placentas and two sacks the likelihood that they are identical are reduced.  Around 70% of this criteria are non-identical whilst there is still a small percentage of identicals.  We will just have to wait to find out the sexes to maybe be a little clearer.  If we have a boy and a girl they are not identical. Otherwise we have to wait until they are born.







This is Possi.  Possi did not really want us to visit today.  He/She was much happier to just curl up in a ball and sleep.  








Whats next?

Dr Alexander (Obstetrician) on 10th January.
15 - 16 weeks appointment

Followed by next Morphology screening 5th February.
19 - 20 week - Scan (we will hopefully find out the sexes)

11 Weeks 6 Days

Once again up at 5am even though I would have loved to keep sleeping.  I am always extremely hungry in the morning and by the evening I am hungry but cannot find the energy to cook or if I do cook I am not hungry by the time I finish.

Today we did some Christmas shopping and then picked up Oriana and drove her to Nona.  We told Oriana today that she is going to be a big sister and she said that she had already called god about a brother or sister and he had said yes and she had been waiting patiently for you to come.
