20 weeks and 1 day

The girls are doing GREAT!!! We had a small scare yesterday, I was having some cramps that I had never felt before. We went to L&D and I checked out fine. Apparently sometimes cramps just happen and they didnt see anything wrong, so they sent me home. I had a follow up appointment today with my twin doctor and he said the girls are perfect! D was also able to come and it was so fun being able to watch the babies together on the u/s screen. D tried to take a video of the ultrasound, but he got in trouble by the U/S tech. LOL.

They are both weighing 13 oz and everything on their bodies looks very healthy. We were finally able to see the four chambers of their hearts, which we werent ever able to see before (which had me worried), but it was very clear today that they did in fact have FOUR! So, as of now, we have nothing to worry about. They will see me again every two weeks until week 28.

I am still puking. It started around week 8 and has continued ever since. It has eased up a bit, but I had to leave work today to puke yet again. My bad cold I had about week 17 is still hanging on, but I am now only left with a cough - its still very annoying though.

My doctor also told me that since my cervix looks great I can continue all normal activity! I have been so worried about being on bed rest only b/c I still need to work - so this is just great news for D and I!
