Hello! Today was the all important 12 week ultrasound and everything was great! The fetuses are all measuring about 2.5 inches and their hearts are beating strong. They also like to wiggle around a lot which created some challenges for the very patient ultrasound tech. (With three fetuses to measure, it took about 90 minutes.)
Since everything is on track, we’ve started sharing the news broadly and it’s no longer secret news. That’s a particular relief now that I’m starting to show.
I attached three new photos. They’re all close-ups. Triplet A was oriented upside down so I flipped that photo for you. You can see a foot! Triplet B gave us the most trouble today and wouldn’t stop wiggling! With Triplet C, you can clearly see a hand and all 5 fingers!
I’m doing ok. Still nauseous which is no fun but par for the course with triplets. Jason is taking amazing care of me.
Love to you all,
Joanna
