20 weeks!!

Wow!  20 weeks!  It is hard to believe we are half way there!!  Most likely, we are a little more than half way there, but officially the little ones have made it to the half way point.  With each day that passes, it feels more and more real.  I've got quite the bump now and I have started to feel little movements from the twins.  No big kicks or punches just yet, but after seeing the size of their feet on the ultrasound today, it's only a matter of time!  ha!

Anyway, today was the big 20-week ultrasound at Maternal Fetal Medicine (the high-risk place).  They have much better ultrasound equipment compared to the OB, so we always love the pics that we get from them.  The ultrasound lasted for about an hour and a half.  And again, the ultrasound tech was awesome!  We even got a few 3d shots!!  :)  There's always a doctor that reviews the photos afterwards and comes in to check on how things are going.  Today's doctor was like a football coach!  lol  Andrea said she thinks he missed his calling in life.  =P

So the short version of this 1 1/2 hour ultrasound is that everything is looking good.  Baby A is still a girl... Edyn Carmel.  And Baby B is still a boy... Harrison Lee.  Edyn is 12 ounces and Harrison is 13 ounces.  Thats over a pound and a half of baby!!  Edyn's heart rate was 148 bpm and Harrison's was 132 bpm.  Both heart rates are in the normal range.  Everything else (heads, hands, feet, legs, etc) is looking good and normal!  Edyn was in a odd position, so it was a little harder to get her to cooperate, but after the ultrasound tech jiggled her around a bit, she was good!  Harrison was a little more chill and cooperative.  He also wanted everyone to know that he was a boy!  Over and over again!

We have two more appts coming up in the next two weeks.  One on the 17th at the OB and one of the 22nd at MFM.  The one of the 22nd is the fetal echocardiogram, so they will be looking exclusively at their hearts.  The next appts after that are not until mid-November and early December.

In other news, we recently purchased cribs, mattresses and bedding, so we are making progress in the nursery!  :D
