What a fun packed day I had yesterday. I went back to work after a week of sick leave only to see four patients before the nausea and vomiting took over.

Not a great start but I did have my first OB appointment in the afternoon. Thank goodness Michael was there. There is a LOT of information to take in but I feel like I'm in really good hands with my OB. Dr. Bloomenthal has a lot of practical advice and she's very understanding. Apparently she specializes in complicated pregnancies which I didn't know when I first contacted her.

We had our second ultrasound at her office, and from what she could see, both babies are doing well. They are active and have strong heartbeats. Although it's still a little early to definitively say, but one of the babies looks to be a boy and both are sharing a placenta with no membrane separating them. From that conclusion, she thinks we're having IDENTICAL TWIN BOYS!!

This means I have to have ultrasounds every two weeks at BC Women's Hospital to make sure they stay healthy. Good times!!
