Appointment Update.

Well then. Had my first appointment and I am indeed pregnant. Here's an upside-down picture of Shrimp:
 And here's an upside-down picture of Shrimp's twin.
WHAAAAAATTTT. NO history of twins on either side of the family; apparently there's a 1 in 80 chance of twins without genetic predisposition. I heard both their heartbeats and saw one of them dance a jig. Everything else seems to be hunky dory, twins are naturally a bit more risky than one baby, but other than that things are fine according to the doctor. April 24th still, although typically twins are delivered pre-term.

So if you're already buying us baby stuff, go back and get two of each. We'll be in shock for a few days.

  1. For those who can't read, that means we're having two kids.

  2. Also, I take back the statement about no history of twins. My cousin has them, and I was their nanny for six months... perhaps a testament to the state of shock I was in that day. Also Andrew's dad's aunt had twins.
