I am now 24 weeks pregnant and the twins seem to be doing fine. We are definately having a boy and a girl. Their names are Joshua Spencer and Emma Michelle.
We had a Pediatric Cardiology appointment to check their hearts. The Dr. said that there is a 5% chance of an issue with their hearts due to the fact that they were conceived via IVF. We didn't know how their hearts were going to be checked but it turned out it was another ultrasound.
Both babies looked great. The ultrasound tech was hoping that they would sit still during the appointment but of course they would not. The Dr. said that both hearts looked great and that he didn't see any major issues. He couldn't rule out 100% that there wouldn't be minor deformities but that there definitely weren't any major ones. This of course is great news. He also gave us a brief anatomy lesson about the heart and said that everything looks great.
We are traveling up to NY next weekend for a baby shower with my family. It should be a fun trip. We are also planning on having a baby shower here in VA on November 18th. I am hoping we get everything we need for the babies or at least close enough.
