Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi all, sorry to be absent for so long. My husband had back surgery (disc fusion) on Friday and I had no idea it would be such a tough recovery. Today (Wednesday) is the first day I left him alone at home. Hopefully he will be ok but I am nervous about him trying to walk around by himself (like most men he thinks he can push the limits of what Dr. told him to do/don't do).

Some good news - I went to the ob yesterday for a sonogram - he said the babies look great and they are definitely....TWO GIRLS!!! I think they will be adorable but my husband is a bit disappointed that he won't have a boy to teach football. He'll get over it I'm sure! We have so many girls names we like it's hard to decide. Jaqi - I like Isabella a lot, too. Also Ava, and Hailey - although one of our good friends used Hailey for her daughter's middle name, so I'm afraid she would be territorial about the name should we choose it.

How are you guys doing? Ashley when will you find out the sexes? Jaqi I constantly feel a lot of weight low in my pelvic area but I assumed it was just the stretching of the uterus pushing on all the other abdominal organs, not to mention the extra weight of babies and related fluids, etc. The twins are about 6 ounces each and measuring almost 17 weeks. I'm feeling generally great and the time seems to fly by.
