TWINS!!

Yhea I don't believe it either. We just found out yesterday with our first ultrasound that their were two little ones in there...not just one. WOW what a shock. First feeling that came over me was scared. I'm scared to death and don't know what to do with two. It's starting to sink in. I know that it will take time, but thank God that we have a wonderful support system with both of our families and great friends. My cousin whom also has twins and my best friend that is having twins in September both assure me that the feelings i am having are normal. They both went through the same shock and awl. I just can't believe it yet.
The ultrasound went very well besides finding two..lol Their heartbeats were both good at 154 and 156. Baby B we could actually see the spine which was kindof neat. Now with twins I am considered high-risk and will be seeing a maternal fetal specialist. So we will get lots of ultrasounds and lots of pictures of the babies. I do have their first pics and I will try to post them later.
Yesterday I also had to do the 1 hour Glucola test (sugar test). Normally you do not have that test till you are about 24 weeks but because both of my grandfathers are diabetics they wanted to check me early. Well I got a call early this morning that I failed it and had to go in today for the long 3 hour test. Let me tell you...that stuff is gross! Today's was double the sugar and 4 blood work pokes later..when I got home I checked my sugar because I wasn't feeling well and it was only 54...no wonder I was dizzy and shaky. I don't want to ever feel that way again. So we will see what the results are probably next week and we have another appt at the dr's in 2 weeks. I'll try to update as much as I can!
