Still needle free and happy as can be!

Everything went good at my appointment last Friday. One baby is measuring 4 days smaller than the other. The smaller one's heartbeat was 182 and the bigger one's heartbeat was 167. I started to freak out a little at the size difference but Dr. said it is normal for them to measure different and they usually like to see them within a week of each other. I also got pap culture done (UGH) and I opted to do the non invasive genetic testing where they test for chromosome defects. I hesitated getting this test done because it won't change anything but if something were to be "off" with either one I would want to know so I can research and prepare. My last appointment with RE is Oct. 17th then he is going to release me to my regular OB (which is a midwife) I will make an appointment with her after the 17th to discuss ALL of my questions regarding birthing twins, my past placenta issues and what Dr.'s she will be sending me too. Here is Johnson & Johnson's latest pic!
The smaller one (one on top sort of) was waving at me. It was amazing!!! I also decided to announce on Facebook here is the picture and status I posted 
"We began this year on one path and God led us to take another. This summer has been one of the hardest and greatest. IVF was nothing like I expected. To my prayer team who walked this journey with me. Your love, support, celebrations and most importantly prayers undoubtedly kept me going. I can't thank you enough! Scott, Carter and I are extremely Blessed and over the moon! My miracles with a side of science :)
Or in other words... Holy S#!@ we're having twins!!!!"


I received so many heartfelt comments, messages and texts. I printed them all out to put in the babies scrapbook! It was an emotional day reading everyone's comments. We are truly Blessed. Well that's all for now. Just super anxious to know genders so we can figure out names! We have it narrowed down though. I think. Lol.
