Week 13/14 Appointment

Well we had another appointment. Everything was pretty straight forward fairly routine appointment. We did get to hear the babies heartbeats. One of the babies was 158 and the other was 160. In the middle of our appointment the Dr. got called out for a phone call so since we were having to wait we got to do a sonogram. I am so glad because they were so cool!!!

In the following picture the babies heads were right next to each other, I think they are looking right at each other.



In this next picture the baby is looking at the sonogram machine, the top right is the baby's head. You can see the eyes, nose and mout, his/her left arm is stick out to the left of the picture. He/She is looking over their left shoulder.



It was so exciting. We love Dr. Tadvic he is amazingly nice and funny. We go back in one month to see him once more then we go to Dr. Maybury til closer to our due date. I think he has the better sonogram machine. Hopefully it will let us record the sonogram so I can put it online.

Jana is doing really well she is not getting sick as much maybe once every three or four days now so that has been good. She is starting to show finally, she is so cute! I would post her belly pictures but she doesn't want me to. We will keep everyone up to date.

Genetic Testing Results - IDENTICAL TWINS!!!

Well we got our results back and they confirm that Jon and I are identical twins! I am really excited. The probability of us being identical twins is 99.99999978436%. So we have told people for 29 years now (short of 2 weeks) that we are fraternal twins. Well after 29 years the Dr. was wrong!!! We are identical. My dad summed it up really nicely. If it wasn't possible for you two to be any closer you just got closer. Crazy!!! We are both excited. A biology teacher names Mrs. Bull told Jon and I when we were in high school that she thought the Dr's were wrong and we should get tested well for 3,000 dollars it was to high of a price to pay but we paid 160.00 bucks now and found and we are very excited about it. Guess now we need to go back and tell her she was right all along!

PS - Another Dr. visit tomorrow to see our twins, we are excited! I can't imagine how much they have grown over a month.

Genetic Testing

Well, we have been reading a lot of books as of late about twins and talking with our doctor and come to find out Jon and I are possibly identical twins. We have been toying with the idea of getting genetic testing done to find out for sure. Well today I got online to see how much it was, I told Jana last night I would be willing to spend 1000.00 bucks to find out. Well I got online and it only cost 160.00 dollars. I ordered the packet this morning and we should get it next week and do the test. We should know for sure by the end of the month if we are in fact fraternal twins or identical twins. If we find out that we are identical we will have to make a special trip to Wylie High School and tell Mrs. Bull she was right all along. We shall know something soon and will let everyone know.
