Hello Ladies,

Thanks so much for all your prayers and positive thoughts, you are all so special!! Well Baby A's heart is beating at 174 bpm and Baby B's heart is beating at 172 bpm. Baby B is a little bigger than baby A, but they both look wonderful!!

Ok now to a little snag...from what the doctor can tell the babies are what they call monoaminotic twins which means they share the same sack. I have to go see a specialist in a week for them to do another sono to get a better look to see if they can see the membrane in between that the doctor cannot see. If the babies are indeed monoaminotic twins there can be some complications which are the babies can get tangled in each other cords, twin to twin transfusion (where one twin gets more nutretients than the other). I have done a lot of research on this even before so I am well aware of the complications and under no circumstances am I terminating this pregnancy!! The doctors try to scare you, but my dear departed FIL sent these babies to me and I love them and will do everything in my power to make sure they are safe and healthy!!

Now I am off to celebrate with my wonderful DH!! We are going to Atlantic City for the weekend to celebrate our 2nd Wedding Anniversary and I am so excited!! Thank you again for all your support and love you don't even know how much it means :) Once I know when the specialist appt is I will let you all know!

Love & Belly Rubs,

Lisa

What great news! You sound ecstatic and very confident, so I'm sure the little snag will be nothing at all. Have fun on vacation!

Best,

Lisa, I am so glad all went well and that your twins look good! If they are in the same sac the doctors should monitor you pretty close!!! Congrats and enjoy your anniversary!
