I visited with the doctor for the first time and had the usual rundown of exams and testing. Poked, prodded and then they whipped out a contraption with a microphone.. This was not what I was expecting! I thought this would be at the next appointment. The heartbeat is strong and easy to find! Luckily, still only one. :) My mother informed me that my aunt Judy didn't find out she had twins until the eighth month. Yes, twins do run in the family. The ultrasound only showed one because they were perfectly side by side during the exam and when they checked the heartbeat in month 8, they heard two small heartbeats.. Surprise..
I am hypoglycemic and that explains the extra sensitivity to simple sugars. I have lost a total of 8 lbs since 'The News'.. But this could also be normal. I am continuing to eat healthy. I added 2% milk to my diet of nearly no milk at all. I'm still nauseous if I don't eat every couple of hours, however, I do have more energy than in previous weeks. This means I can lift my creek boat again... Ahahaha! Lower Wind is calling my name..
The ultrasound on August 16th at 4pm will be the appointment I'm dragging EJ to find the sex of the little one. This should prove to be a momentous occasion!
Love and Light.

I'm so happy that momma & baby are healthy -- but you need to start putting on the pounds, girlie. If I have to sit down and eat some cookies with you, then so be it. We can't wait to find out if it's a girl or a trouble-maker! I think pink...
