6w5d

Heaviness in my lower belly, cramps and extreme exhaustion! This is where I am at. I am lucky that if I don't feel well, I have been able to leave work or work from home as I am doing today.


We are so excited as today we should be able to see and hear heartbeat (s)!!!

Update.

We saw two heartbeats today, but baby B is measuring 5 days smaller at 6w2d and has a heartbeat of only 72bpm. According to Google, this isn't good and Dr Yeh wants to see us back on Monday for another u/s and bloodwork before he goes out of town. Baby A is doing great, measuring 2 days ahead of schedule at 7w0d and had a heartbeat of 117bpm.

Both girls will make it and thrive. I refuse to think otherwise. I personally think that baby B will catch up as the split happened later. My girls will be fighters just like their mom. They will define all odds.

Nick and I are discussing getting a bigger house that will accommodate twins better. We need a second bedroom on the first floor. We are going to an open house on Sunday to see a home that will fit all our needs as a growing family. We are also researching a new vehicle for me, one that will work for twins and a 9 year old. I am against a minivan, so we will see what we find.
