So Alyssa had her first experience of getting left on the bus today. She is the last one off and I guess the bus driver didn't notice her and drove right on by her stop.

It is a fight to get her to ride the bus home anyway, now I can only imagine her protests of not wanting to ride!

Baby Belly

29 weeks

Here is the first belly picture we've taken.

Babies update

Since I haven't updated since we've found out were getting girls, here's the latest.

Last week I was 27 weeks along. Both babies were weighing in at 2 1/2 lbs. That was a gain of a full pound for each baby in a 3 week period.

The specialists are concerned that baby B has a generous amount of fluid in her sac..... interpretation meaning either gestational diabetes- results came back normal-- or could cause preterm labor. However, my doctor doesn't seem to be too concerned since the fluid amount is still within the normal range. So I am trying to eat as much protein as possible to strengthen the sacs to eliminate that. (one of many things I have learned through this pregnancy, protein from animal meat strengthens the sac).

PINK X-2

I looks like were bringing more pink into the Sargent house! Ultrasound confirmed 2 baby girls.

Football

Well Cam is winding down to the end of football season. His team made it to the championship game! We hope they come out with a win on Sat.

Ultrasound Pics

Here are the latest pictures of the babies. The Dr. said everything looks good and they are growing at about the same rate. We were unable to determine gender today. :( But at least they look good and everything is going good.

TWINS

Well, I went to the Dr. yesterday for my first checkup. I got a little surprise when she took me in for an ultrasound and we saw 2, yes 2 babies! So I guess we'll see how this little adventure goes. Right now I'm a bit overwhelmed with processing the idea.

I'll be going back in for another ultrasound within the next week for complete measurements to see how both babies are growing. I will try to keep the blog updated.
