Yep......to all of our surprise, we found out we are having GIRLS!!!!!
TWO MORE GIRLS!!!!!!
Look at those cute little head side by side!
Baby A
Love seeing that strong heartbeat
Baby B
LOVE the little feet and hands!
The arrows are pointing to the membrane seperating the two sacs....the babies are identical so they share the same placenta but have seperate sacs
You can see from the picture that the baby on the right has a lot more room and fluid than the one on the left. Which is a concern.... so although today every thing looked great....the babies are exactly the same size and all the anatomy looks great....they are concerned that this could present a problem in the future so we are now going to be seeing a perinatologist as well as our OB. We see the maternal fetal medicine appointment on monday so we will see what they say but for now my doctor has put me on moderate bed rest, which means no lifting (that will be a challenge with Mia and Bree) and I have to have 12 hours of laying down/rest time a day (including sleeping hours). We are THRILLED that things looked so good today and will just keep praying that these two sweeties keep doing what they are supposed to do. As long as they keep sharing the nutrients and fluid the rest of the pregnancy we will be good! Because they are identical and in the same placenta, if something went wrong with one, it would also go wrong with the other, which is why they will be monitoring them so closely from here on out. The positive about that is we will get lots of looks at the babies with lots more ultra sounds!

Still dying. These pictures make me cry. So cute! Why do I love ultrasound pics so much?? Love this news and love you!
Congratulations you guys! I can't believe how blessed you are with girls! You are a wonderful family. Good luck with everything:)
OH MY GOSH!!!! 6 girls!!! I love it- Just imagine all the hairspray, dance recitals, and drama! It was my DREAM to have a TON of sisters growing up - what lucky girls!! I hope everything goes ok with this moderate bed rest business...and that monday will have some better news for you! It just cant be easy can it! You got some really cute u/s pictures - LOVE those little arms and profiles!
So excited for all of you! I just had a friend go through the exact same scenario with twin girls, and all turned out just fine with the Grace of God! I have 5 sisters and loved having someone around all the time :) Congrats!
My friend grew up in a family of all girls (as well as my sister in law, 6 little girls all in a row), but when I told my friend how terrible that seemed to me to only have sisters she said, it is wonderful. It is like living a Jane Austen novel. Since then I have wanted to only have sister. congrats! We'll be praying that the little girls grow well with no complications, and that bed rest will be possible!
Congrats!! I just love ultrasound pictures. :)
I was praying for you last night and this morning for two healthy babies on that ultrasound. Praise the Lord! All of those little girls running around your house is going to be so sweet! We will continue to pray for two healthy babies and a healthy mama....
Oh my heart! Congratulations!!! That is awesome news.
Wow!! Oh my goodness! More girls! I love it!! I love the ultrasound pics. So cute already! How's your hubby taking the news? I'm so happy for you! Congratulations!
How sweet seeing them so perfect and safe in your womb ~ what a miracle! They are going to have quite the wardrobe handed down from Mia & Bree. Take care of yourself and will be praying all continue to go well.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
With my twins (also mo/di) we also had concerns of possible ttts, but it never developed, just turned out one twin was and still is bigger than the other. Prayers that things go safe and smooth with yours as well!
FYI- My grandpa had five daughters and no boys. I was the first grandchild (a girl, obviously,) but since then every single child that has been born in our family (13 total) has been a boy. So tell your hubby not to worry much about being outnumbered... he could get a slew of boys with his grandbabies! :)
Sheesh Kec! Six beautiful daughters, that's awesome! Congratulations, and I hope Monday brings good more good news. Loves to y'all from my crew!
Congratulations!! 6 girls sounds wonderfully fun!!
Congrats! 6 girls does sound like fun! Will be praying still
So Exciting!! Congrats you guys. Take it easy, Kecia (so easy to do with 4 kids, eh?) Can't wait to see those adorable twins.
Just amazing!
Such great news - everyone in your family will have a shoulder to lean on and at times cry one. A best friend for each girl! Who could ask for more. Your heavenly father has clearly been guiding you for the past year andblessing your family... we will continue to do so. Take it as easy as you can - quite the oximoron - if there is ever anything we can do to help... you know where to find me.
Yay for more Pink!! I was sort of hoping for boys...poor Kris lol but at least you'll have all those super cute twinner clothes from Mia and Bree :)
Oh my goodness!! Congratulations:) I'll be praying that everything goes smoothly and the babies stay healthy.
I've been following your sweet blog threw the long adoption process... What a great example of faith you and your family all have! What exciting news about your two additions. My sister just had her 5th girl and she has a set of identical twin girls in her mix too. What fun they are! (: Congrats again!

Congratulations! Oh my goodness, all those girls are going to have so much fun together, it's like they have their own little sorority :-)
So this is Michelle, Lida's neighbor. She told me the news this morning. Ah! I couldn't help but thinking that all your girls are 'sixters' instead of just sisters. Good luck with everything. :)
How fun to finally found out! 6 girls will be so much fun! I am so happy for you and glad that are doing well, up to this point. I love the ultrasound pictures. It really is a miracle isn't it? Take it easy and let me know what I can do to help. Congratulations!!!

Congratulations on 2 more girls!!! Wow! My twins were also mono/di and they did great and we had them at 35 weeks 6 days. They were monitored closely because of the risk of ttts, but they never got it and everything turned out great! Lots of water and protein :) Definitely listen to your drs about the modified bedrest. Twin pregnancies are so much harder on our bodies than just a single baby. I had to do modified bedrest at about the same time and then didn't have to go on full bedrest until about 30 weeks. It is tough, and I only had a 2 year old at the time! Hang in there!! I used to have to just sit down and then let my 2 year old climb up on my lap. It is sooo hard not to pick them up. If you ever need help or want to talk more about having twins, just let me know!
