Full Term!!

Today officially marks week 36!! This is another huge milestone because I have officially carried the twins full term!!  At this point everything is developed for the outside world.  Anything beyond this point is for the babies to gain weight! Each baby should gain an ounce a day. 

I was looking back and realized that a year ago I had just received my first package with all of the medicine for IVF.  
I remember feeling overwhelmed and excited!! Seems like ages ago when I had all those shots, pills, patches, and doctors appointments.

The first transfer didn't work but we quickly realized it hadn't failed. We still had 3 very good frozen embryos waiting for their turn!! Also, now after carrying twins full term, I realize that I HAD to get healthier first. This has definitely been a harder pregnancy than my first and I am so glad I got healthier and lost nearly 30 lbs before getting pregnant with twins!!  This was all part of God's perfect plan. I didn't understand at first but I do now!  Trust in God and he will take care of you!!


This picture was taken on the morning of our 2nd attempt! At that time I was averaging 18K steps each day and had lost nearly 30 lbs! 




Our two precious babies! 


12 days later we got the call that I was pregnant!!!
