Guess who's in my belly!?!

On Wednesday, me and my babies had a little photo session with our favorite perinatolgist. Let me tell you that I had been a ball of nerves for a week. I am not one to sit back and let things happen. I NEED to know EVERYTHING. I really could not of cared on Wednesday what kinds of parts they had. I just needed a complete kidney count, a good look at their little noggins, and peace of mind that my kids are ok.

The technologist (who was amazing) could tell that I was anxious and agreed to let me see their kidneys first. I was born with 3 kidneys (none of which worked very well) and am down two one somewhat lazy one so, I wanted to make sure that they got L's fabulous pee parts and not mine. Hooray!! They did! Once I saw this, I was able to lay back and look at our babies.

L was working and could not be there for most of the scan. The tech saved the surprise for both of us until the end. She first look at my lower right side and announced It's a Girl! Visions of pink bows and tutu's danced in my head! We have a girl! Then as L stood anxiously, she scanned my upper left and announced It's a Boy! Can you believe it! We have another boy! I have never felt so fulfilled and blessed.

This whole time I have felt all of it is too good to be true. I don't know why I do this to myself but I kept waiting for something to go wrong or be wrong. Maybe it's the fact that I scan patients everyday and there are things wrong. Maybe it's that I have always had something medically to deal with and it is a normal thought for me to assume that there will always be something medically wrong. However, after this last scan, I have vowed to myself and my husband to RELAX. Sure there might be things be wrong but, there is nothing I can do except deal with it when or if it happens.

So here's to the rest of my pregnancy! I am 19 weeks along and starting to feel someone kicking my bladder. My belly is really starting to expand and I can no longer sleep in the superman position (face down arms up). We are tossing names around and trying to come up with a nursery suitable for both a boy and a girl. I like this part! Before we know it they will be here my new excuse for not being a faithful blogger won't be work it will be babies!
