Here is the first picture of our babies together. Now if we hadn't seen both heartbeats flickering on the screen at the same time, I would think this was just one little baby! But she labeled them for us! We just can't believe it! There are two!!!!
Here is Twin A's close up. Right now, it is measuring 10.31mm crown to rump, which puts it at 7weeks 0days--which is what I'm at today. Its heartbeat was 129, which they said is great for right now!
Here is Twin B's close up. It is measuring 10.59mm crown to rump, which makes it 7 weeks 1 day--just right! This one's heartbeat was also 129! She said that right now, they like to see twins measuring about the same length. If there is too much of a difference, they worry. So our little babies are looking just perfect!!
Here are their heartbeats--identical! 129 beats per minute. The lines along the bottom show their heartbeats. It is too early to hear them, but it was so amazing to see their flickering hearts on the screen. What an absolute miracle!!
Here is the embryo that they believe was the one that split. The amazing thing is that identical twins don't come about from fertility treatments. An embryo that splits is just random. Ususally people see fraternal twins from fertility treatments! Which makes our twins even more of a miracle!!
God is SO good, and we are just in complete awe of His blessings!! Thank you for your continued prayers--now for both of our babies!!!! I have my first appointment with my OB on Monday, and I can't wait to tell her the good news!!!
