Here we are at 16w1d. Cervix is a super long 4.5cm, heartbeats were in the 150s today, and everyone is moving around like they are supposed to be.
Now, technically, they aren't really supposed to confirm gender this early. It's all supposed to be "Maybe" and "Well kind of looks like it might be...." But they bend the rules for me a bit because I've got a history and everyone wants to be nice to me.
So before the big gender reveal, how about I put some pictures in your face? Nothing special, they look like every other ultrasound picture on the planet, but they're mine and that makes them awesome.
Ok, I think it's gender reveal time. You ready? Not sure I am, but here we go anyway.
Twin A is definitely a girl! We got very clear girl bits. The technician tried to hem and haw and then just went, "Oh yeah, that's definitely a girl."
Twin B is probably .......... another girl! We didn't get the definite three line indication that showed us girl bits, but she mooned us with legs wide open and there was a definite lack of boy bits so by default.....
Holy fucking guacamole!
I did not allow my brain this possibility. I was certain it was two boys. I was hoping for at least one girl, but I never thought it was actually a possibility to have 2 again!
