The babies are now about 3.5 inches, or 9 cm long. They are both doing well. Each comes with his own little button nose that is too sweet for words. By the way, the doctor said he was 'very confident' that Baby B was a boy (this we had prior knowledge of) and today he added that he was 'pretty confident' that Baby A was a boy as well! Looks like we might have two little brothers in there. We had our hearts set on having a little girl and a little boy, we were surprised at how disappointed we were initially! Sadly, we'll have to pack away all the adorable baby girl outfits we've been accumulating and wait for the next round. Luckily, the darling baby shoes that Jaima bought us are quite 'boyish', so they will get lots of use. The doctor also spotted some nuchal translucency, a little fluid collection behind the back of the neck in Baby A. It could just mean that the lymphatic system isn't quite developed yet, or, less likely, it could be an indication of other concerns. Just when Melissa's been feeling better and we thought we were out of the woods! Our prayers continue that our little babies are both well. Our next appointment is in two weeks on April 20.
