No more Apricot and Buttercup the twins will now be referred to as Hansel and Gretel.
We got the results of the genetic testing and we're having a GIRL and a BOY....I am over the moon with excitement. This is so perfect, I can't believe it. Ivan always suspected that Dr. S put back a girl and boy embryo.
Tomorrow I will begin the 2nd trimester...wow how time flies. I'm feeling better although this weekend I felt very queasy and was in a lot of pain but I'm not complaining.
I can't believe I'll be 13 weeks tomorrow. I never thought I would get this far heck I never thought I would be PG. Sometimes it feels like a dream...a wonderful dream.
My belly is getting bigger but I'm still in that awkward stage where I just look and feel fat. I'm dying to get bigger and use maternity tops. Right now if I did I would just look like a fat girl with a big shirt. Maybe I'll post a pic so you can all have a nice laugh.
I think now that I've overcome the hurdle of the 1st trimester I can start enjoying things and believing that all will be okay.
