Baby Videos

Here are some pictures from the sonogram specialist today. The boys are both doing really well. I on the other hand had some blood test that did not come back well. Once again they show that I am anemic, and my Flinstone Vitamins with Iron are helping, but not enough. So I will have to start taking Iron supplements again. Last time I did this I threw them up everytime I got them down. I start taking them again tonight, I will let you know how it goes.

I also tested positive for gestational diabites. I have to go through some more testing on Monday, but to get me ready for the test the doctor has put me on a Donut Diet. Terriable I know :). I have to eat a donut with every meal and another before I go to bed each night. This is supposed to get my body ready for the blood test so the doctor can tell how my body is handling the sugar. I bet not many other people have been put on a donut diet. I just hope the nurses don't comment about my weight next time I have to weigh.

This is a video of Baby A. The picture is not very good, but you can make out the face. The part that is going right under his chin is the umbilical cord and the stuff off to the right is the placenta. It doesn't make for a great picture, but apparently it is pretty squished in there. Be sure to notice the little fingers that are sneaking around his neck. That would be Baby B trying to strangle him. Even though the babies are in different sacs, the nurse said that the membrane was so thin that they could still beat up on each other.

This is a video of Baby B. He never does really show you the front of his face because his hand is in front of it. He is having to shield himself from the blows to the head caused by Baby A's knee. Apparently we have two fighters on our hands. I hope this isn't a glimps of how life will be once they get here. You can, however, see Baby B's ears and shoulder really well. Too cute!
