Shauna: 9 week Preg Check

Posted by kim on May 13, 2007

Shauna went to the doctor Friday for a full first pregnancy exam. They did another ultrasound since she’s still had some vaginal spotting. Still two babies in there! Definitely fraternal with two sacks and two placentas (My twins had two sacks but only one placenta, so could have been either fraternal or identical). Baby A’s gestation was estimated to be 9 weeks and 2 days along with a heartbeat of 171. And Baby B was 9 weeks, 1 day, 176 heartbeat. I plan to keep adding updates of Shauna’s Pregnancy Progress, so check back!

On a side note, the joke is that there is “something in the water” where Shauna works (Samuels Orthodontics) as her co-worker had twins last year, and another co-worker’s daughter is expecting twins as well!

Fostering a sharing and caring environment at home is nothing short of difficult. Especially for twins, who are often times expected to be each other’s best friends, expectations can be overwhelming. Bunk beds for your twins can grant them individual spaces while still learning valuable lessons about compromise and cooperation. The bunk bed helps save space in the kids’ room while your twins work together toward a common goal, whether it be making the bed or deciding who gets to sleep on the top bunk. Comfortable, secure, stylish, and a space saver, bunk beds can also be a vital learning tool for teaching your kids an important lesson in cohabitation.
