Checkup Time

We had our next checkup this past Friday and everything was progressing well for Jenene and the babies. We were able to hear the heartbeats again and all her numbers were normal. The next thing we have is the 20 week ultrasound coming up in about three weeks. During this we will find out what we are having. Pretty exciting stuff. It is odd for us because with Tyler we never found out. We thought though with these two we are going to have to at least be prepared somewhat. We must have gotten 10 calls on Friday because people thought we were going to find out what they were then. I had to disappoint them all and tell them they have to wait another few weeks. Jenene has been feeling good and the headaches seem to have subsided a bit. Hopefully the rest of the pregnancy goes this smoothly.

We finally got the results back on the Nucal Translucency test we did and everything was normal. We got to go to the hospital and they did a very thorough ultrasound and some bloodwork on Jenene and they are able to determine with about 95% accuracy the risk the kids are at for Down Syndrome. This was a big relief and another hurdle i felt like we cleared. It was so awesome to see them in there and moving around and stuff. I had kind of forgotten from when Tyler was in there the feeling that you get seeing the baby move around and stuff. Now I get to see it with two of them. We are in full panic mode by the way. The house is on the market, we have to find a new car, get a new crib etc. Everyone keeps saying "It will work out". But my questions is "How?" It doesn't just happen out of the blue. I am sure everything will be fine and I just try and focus on the wonderful family we will have when this is all said and done.
