10 Week Belly Shot

10 Week Ultrasound

We had an appointment yesterday, June 26, 2007, to check on the size of the hemmorage. It is alot smaller but still there a little bit. The doctor isnt sure on how long it will take for it to be completely gone but at least its alot smaller. Both babies are really growing. I was exactly 10 weeks yesterday and they are both measuring 10 weeks 6 days. Both heartbeats were 176 yesterday. They were both really moving around like crazy yesterday. The ultrasound lady said that there are 2 placentas so she said they probably are not identical, so maybe we will get one of each!!! We wont know for awhile though what the sexes are.

A Really Big Scare

Well last Thurs night I was getting dinner ready and I had to use the bathroom and noticed that I was bleeding. It wasnt bad at first but then a few minutes later I checked again and I was bleeding very heavy. Dave called the doctors and left a message and shortly after that they called back. They said for me to lay down and if i went through a pad every 20 minutes for an hour then we were to make the trip to the hospital. I laid down for a bit and then we decided to goto the ER. They did an ultrasound and both babies hearts were just a beating. I couldnt believe they were still there after all the blood that i lost. They did blood work and an exam and they couldnt find out where the bleeding was coming from. So we left the hospital at midnight and I was to call the doctors office first thing in the morning for an appointment with my own doctor. So I called and we went. The first doctor I saw (mine was on call in the morning) did an exam and said that the blood is coming from my uterus and was concerned. So we had an ultrasound and both babies hearts were still beating thank goodness. They found the cause for the bleed. I have a pretty good size hemmorage. It is right below the babies but is not touching their sacs at all. So i was put on bed rest until Wed 6/13 when I would go back to the doctors.

We went to the doctors on Wed and the hemmorage is still there. It is still the same size as it was on Friday. The ultrasound lady goes, do you know there is a third Baby? Dave said, What?? But it was the hemmorage that she was seeing. Both babies measured 8 weeks 5 days. They moved my due date to January 18th instead of the 22nd. I am off bed rest but I cant do anything. But at least I can get up and walk around a bit now. I am still bleeding but its old blood. Just praying that it stays that way. I go back on June 26th for another ultrasound to see how things are looking.

Picture of Ultrasound

I took a picture of the ultrasound with the digital camera, its not the best picture of it but at least you get to see the twins. They look like beans but in a few more weeks they will start looking like babies.

Ultrasound Update

We had our first ultrasound yesterday and we are having twins. Both are measuring 7 weeks 3 days and one has a heartbeat of 155 and the other 153. We have an OB consult next Wed.
