Dancing baby!


Today I went in for my 11 week doctor's appointment. We were in for a surprise but first, I have to tell you about some of my pregnancy woes.

About 3 weeks ago now, my doctor put me on bedrest for some bleeding I was having. I got better but then last night it started again! I called him after hours and he prescribed something to stop it and put me on bedrest again. Ammon drove me to my appointment and I saw my doc first thing this morning. Thankfully, the babies were just fine. And we were even in for a little treat. The baby you see here on the bottom (left in the other picture above) was totally moving around. It was like he was so happy to see us, he was doing a dance! You can distinctly see his little leg sticking out to the side. So fun! The other one just laid there with his arms across his chest not moving. I guess the first one was such a scene-stealer that he didn't want to try to compete. ;) Both hearts beat very strongly and they look so BIG. They used to be these little beans and now you can see distinct body parts. Even though I keep referring to them as "him/his/he", we don't know what we're having yet. In the next few weeks, we should though, and much sooner than I thought. Usually it's at 20 weeks but my doc said anywhere from 14-16 weeks we can know. I really don't care what gender they are; I just hope they're healthy.

Wow, I would have been nervous. I'm so glad everything is fine. That would be so funny if "he" really turns out to be a dancer - LOL. Heeeeyy, where's your 11 week belly photo? Love you guys!

Forgive me for blog surfing, but I was excited to read yours. You're in my prayers that all will be will with the little Larsen twins, and you, too.

so cool, glad all is well! I was just telling someone that my 12 week ultrasound was the best one ever because they were tiny enough to be bouncing off the walls, but big enough to have arms and legs!
Congrats, I hope everything goes easy peasy from here on out!
