From the moment we saw our 2 littles on the first ultrasound we both felt bonded, and have thoroughly enjoyed talking and singing to them (yes, we are that couple) almost every night.
So, once again I was nervous, but mostly excited about seeing whether one or both made it to this point.
I have to say that last night at work I had this "feeling" that I can't really explain that it was one baby. If you've ever read my other blog about work, you'll know that I have gotten weird feelings or thoughts before, and they are almost always right.
And then, I had a dream last night that someone gave me a baby announcement that said "Congratulations...it's Twins!" I asked who that was for, and the lady told me it was for me. I looked at her, gave the announcement back, and said "Oh no, that's not for me...we're having one baby."
So when I woke up this morning, I had a slightly disappointed feeling, because I knew that just one had made it. But don't get me wrong...we are thrilled that we are here, at this point, pregnant!
So off to the ultrasound we went!
And sure enough, there on the screen was one big yolk sac, and one teeny, tiny little white blip that they are calling my baby : ) It was amazing to see the little blip flicker pretty quickly, which is the heart beating already!!!

| Sorry for the poor picture quality...its a camera phone pic of the glossy printout! See the little black hole in the middle with the white circle attached at the upper right?? That's our Little Lerma! |
We couldn't hear the heartbeat yet because it's still too early, but the technician was very confident that all the flickering going on she felt was strong.
That's our baby...nice and strong!
So while I am sad about the loss of the second, we couldn't be happier with how well this one little Lerma is doing so far. We will continue to pray and hope that things go as well as they have been up until this point...just 34 more weeks of hoping and praying, until we can have the sweet little one in our arms!
