Maybe I'm allergic to testosterone?

Because, you know, my TWO BOYS could be producing that...

Two boys! My house will be overrun by trucks! I'm psyched.

And they seem to be doing very well. Itsy continues to measure behind (5 days, 10% smaller) but Bitsy is a day ahead and right about at 50% for all his measurements. Itsy's placenta is partially covering my cervix, but the doctor really seemed to think it would migrate off. The cervix itself is long and closed, so that's good news.

We couldn't get the proper measurements on either heart, but again the doctor wasn't concerned--he said it's early to get them on twins, but wanted to do the rest at 18 weeks while they still had room to move around.

And I am indeed feeling movement! I wasn't sure, but I could totally feel some (but not all) of the big kicks Bitsy (posterior placenta) made.

Next MFM scan in 3 weeks, then every two weeks for cervix checks.

I'm so excited for you. I will not deny for a second that I was hoping my LO would be a girl (and she is!), but I, without a doubt, would want two boys if I was pregnant with twins.
