Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice...Twice!!

Once again you all were right! 75% of you voted that we would be having TWIN GIRLS and the ultrasound specialist confirmed it this afternoon. Pictures to be posted soon!

Results...Inconclusive

We went back to the doctor again today and the twins are doing great. They are growing at the same rate and everything has developed perfectly. There is no visible division in the amniotic sac, which would make them MoMo twins. There are no reported cases of this type of twins being of different sexes. With all that said, this time we saw the other twin and it is a girl! The doctor tried to see the other twin, but this time it was turned the opposite way. He could not see the sex for sure, but thought it was a girl too. J asked if we were having triplets, but the doctor said no. The first ultrasound looked like one twin was a boy and the other could not be determined, but now it looks like two girls. We will go to an ultrasound specialist in a couple of weeks to see if he can determine the sexes of the twins. So for now, we are back to square one. We are looking at girl names now and making a list for all possiblities. Good thing the car seats and diapers we bought so far are gender neutral!

You all got the results right in the identical/fraternal quiz, so here's another quiz for you. Pick boys, girls, or one of each. Vote on the poll to the left.

Happy 4th of July!

This 4th of July is especially happy because it marks the halfway point in the pregnancy! K is 20 weeks today. On Wednesday, we have another doctor's appointment. Hopefully, we will be able to confirm the sex of twin A and announce their names! It has been such an exciting time for us preparing for the arrival of our twins. We have started purchasing car seats, diapers and other baby items!

We will be celebrating this 4th of July in El Salvador, so we will miss out on the activities we are accustomed to doing with our family and friends, but next year we will be back in the USA celebrating with our two new additions.
