Baby A: Bergin Paul ~ 5 lbs 6 oz (Blonde Hair)

Baby B: Draydin David ~ 6 lbs 2 oz (Brown Hair)

Both Mom and Babies are doing great after having a C-Section this morning!

Here’s finally a picture of Shauna and her growing tummy for you all to see she is real! And, of course, little Miss Merin, got in the picture as well.  I wonder how she’s going to react to having two new babies in the house soon!

Shauna gained 8 pounds last week, but lost 4 this week, water weight I presume. Her stomach measured 40″ and the doctor said the boys’ heartbeats were “dancing together like they are supposed to”.

A C-Section is scheduled for November 29th, and Shauna is contemplating having a tubal ligation at the same time since this will be four children for her. I’m so glad it’s her going under the knife and not me!

Shauna went to the OB doc yesterday. She has gained 4 pounds since last week, but she is starting to retain fluid.  She has only gained 18 pounds total thus far. Her stress test was normal.  And the results of the ultrasound were:
Baby A - heartbeat 132 - 4 lb. 2 oz.
Baby B - heartbeat 140 - 5 lb. 7 oz.
Wowzers!  And she said they are definitely boys!

Shauna is now on weekly doctor visits and still off work, supposed to be taking it easy (although hard to do with a one year old running around).  Her belly has grown two more inches, yet she has lost one pound. Next week an ultrasound is scheduled.  I am so glad she is doing so well!

I didn’t get Shauna’s checkup recorded last week as I was traveling in London. But she had an ultrasound and saw that one baby was head up and the other head down. They measured at almost four pounds each already!

Today was a bit of a scare as she woke up bleeding so went to the hospital. The doctor said she had broken a blood vessel from all the pressure, and that her cervix was still closed, but thinning. So ordered her on semi-bed rest with no work until he sees her next week. I plan to bring her some movies and magazines and offer to take little Miss Merin (19 months) to give her break. I remember when my kids were little - being at work was less stressful than being home with the kids!

I haven’t got much work done today because I have The Learning Channel on, and it’s distracting me! So far, I’ve watched…

Kids by the Dozen - Spud and Miriam Heppner are the parents of 16 children, 9 still living at home! Getting everyone together for a weekend at the lake is easier said than done, but to the Heppners, family comes first.

Raising 16 Children, 16 Children and Moving In, On the Road with 16 Children about the Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar Family (who just gave birth to their 17th child last month!)

Twins, Twins & More Twins Mom, Dad, and thirteen kids, including three sets of twins. From preparing a teenager to drive, to anticipating the homecoming of premature identical twins, life at the Healy home is quite a balancing act. How they get it all done will amaze you.

The Boy With a New Head Petero Byakatonda was born with Crouzon’s Syndrome, a rare condition that meant his head was shaped like a cone and his eyes bulged out of his skull. He now needs surgery or he will die- this is his story as he tries to get the help he needs to live.

Joined For Life: Abby and Brittany Turn 16 Conjoined twins Abby and Brittany Hensel are about to turn 16- that means they’re very busy with schoolwork, sports, social activities and, yes, testing for their drivers license. To most this seems extraordinary, but to the girls it’s just another day.

After this show, I’m shutting the television off!

P.S. Shauna was having pains today so went to be checked out, just for sure. They are thinking it is just Braxton-Hicks contractions. Let’s hope so.
