First Sonogram :)

Well we went on Monday to visit my OB/GYN. We discussed all that had happened since the last time we saw him (he did not deliver our twins) and how that was coming along. We also asked if the same type of thing could happen with this little one. He pretty much said that it could happen but the likelyhood is very slim since what happened with Angelina is not like a syndrome or genetic. It just happens sometimes and most often in twins. So we are not to worry about that unless there is something to worry about.

It took awhile for the sonographer to get this little one on screen because the placenta is attached high and then the baby is also placed high in the sac. So with the type of sonogram we had to do it was almost impossible to get a good look at it, but finally she did! We got to hear the heartbeat (music to my ears!) and could see the flicker of the heart on the screen as well! It was a bit emotional for me but good all the same.

We will go back on 10/21 to do a follow up sonogram to get a better look at this little bean, do blood work and all the rest of the exam stuff.
