Checkup

Today I had a checkup. I would be lying if I said I wasn't super nervous. Exactly what I am now is how big my first set of twins were when their hearts stopped beating. I was really nervous to hear the heartbeats, especially since I had food poisoning a couple of weeks ago. When I went in to the nurse to check my blood pressure and stuff, she said, how are you? I said, oh fine...I just always get a little nervous to hear heartbeats. She said, oh don't worry. Then she had to leave for a bit, and apparently I was nervous, because I got all teary eyed and had to get a tissue. It is almost like it is too good to be true...and I am just waiting for something to happen to take it away. But I trust in my Heavenly Father and even though I get nervous and worry, I think my spirit is at peace, but my mind is going ninety to nothing. All was well at my checkup today. I met Dr. Jacobs...who is not only Jewish and wears  Yamika (SP?) around, but is very bubbly and outgoing and friendly for an older doctor. I liked him a lot. I have yet to meet the other two doctors, but he seems great. The heartbeats were just fine, he didn't tell me the number, but did say I measure 22 (which normally would be 22 weeks)...so that gives you an idea of how big my belly is. I measure 22 at 16. (I change on Wed.) So all is well, and it was a relief to hear heartbeats. Now we are counting down the days to the ultrasound (next week...Sept. 21st) to find out the sex of the babies. :) What a blessing. I can't wait to find out and know what they are and then name them!!! :)
