February 2013 Love Bugs

[Anikonjo]

Hey girls, thought I'd update since I had my scan on Monday. My EDD is Feb 10 and we are having identical twin girls! I have to have a scheduled c-section which will be in January sometime, but technically I'm still due in Feb!

awww, congrats! 1st pg updated. identical twins - that is amazing!! you don't hear that every day... if you don't mind my asking, why will you have to have a c-section? i do hope everything is okay with your girls.

Thank you! The girls are doing fabulously and I am getting scans every 2 weeks now to monitor them well. They are sharing a placenta which according to the perinatal Dr could create complications if I tried to deliver them vaginally. Another reason for the c-section is because Baby A's umbilical cord attaches to the placenta at a funny angle which would also cause complications if I even go into labor. So scheduled c-section it is! Which I'm ok with and was considering doing anyways, but now I don't have to make that decision!

oh, wow - you don't sound too worried, though, so you must be in very good hands! sorry if i'm being nosy - identical twins are fascinating to me. glad that you get to have monitoring every two weeks now - that must make it neat to expect to see your girls so often [/QUOTE]

I don't think you're being nosy at all. It's amazing the things I've learned about twins that I never knew! It is very fasciniting. Yes I love have the frequent scans, once I hit 30 weeks I'll be getting scanned every week! They just want to monitor them closely because these next few months are when TTTS can develop and it can be fatal to them if not taken care of quickly. I'm not too worried, I trust my Drs and I trust God. I'm sure I'll completely freak out when it comes time to have them, but I'm not thinking about that now! LOL!

Anikonjo, congrats! I always wanted identical girls when I was little I married an identical triplet - it's definitely a unique bond they share.

Babydreams, pictures are lovely

Found out we are having a boy! Everything was perfect and he was moving around the whole time. Earlier scans dated him as Feb 9th. I calculated Feb 13 based on actual OV and today showed him as est due Feb 11th, so right on target. They're just going to stick with the 9th because my last one came 2 weeks early.

Congrats on your little boy Seity!!!! I agree, those are beautiful scan pics...I don't have any close up of the face like that--wow!

 

[Seity]

Assuming everything continues to go smoothly that's the last scan I'll get. The 3D face looks exactly like the one of his brother. I guess that's not too surprising.
Here's my 21 week boy bump picture.

Congrat Seity on joining club blue! Your bump is so neat.

So happy it's saturday. I'm starting to get super excited about baby arriving. Can't wait for Feb! My boy was active this morning! Even DH could feel him squirming around.

Is anyone else still getting nausea? I'm getting it in the mornings, and it's worse if I'm particularly tired. It usually eases by the afternoon. I wonder if I'm just waking up too hungry... but breakfast doesn't fix it.
