Ultrasound at 26 weeks

On Wednesday May 10th, David and I went for our second ultrasound. I think we enjoyed this ultrasound more than the previous one. We were prepared to see two babies!! During the ultrasound we learned that both babies weighed about 2 pounds each. Twin A is breech on my left side. Twin B is transverse, or laying across my stomach, with his or her feet close to the head of twin A. In fact during the ultrasound we could see the head of twin a, and the foot of twin B, it appeared as though twin B was kicking twin A. The hospital has new technology that allows you to see the baby in 3d images. The nurses are learning how to use this technology, so we let them play for a little bit. It was pretty cool to see the baby in 3d. Since we had to go to the hospital for the ultrasound, we will learn more about the results when we go to the doctors on the 16th. After that appointment we will be sure to update you again. The remainder of ultrasound pictures have been added to the photo gallery, including the 3d images. The 3d images can be difficult to see. I had problems seeing the profile of twin A for a couple of days, so don't feel bad if you can't see the profile.

I am still continuing to feel well, or as well as you can feel carrying twins. I am very tired by the end of the day. My leg is doing much better, I no longer have any pain from the blood clot, when I walk longer distances. I am counting down the days until school is over. We only have about 3 weeks of school left. I am looking forward to the lazy days of summer.
