Haven't We Always Been "High Risk?"

Mommy, you are eating for three, so you need two breakfasts.


When we found out we were having twins we also found out that we shifted into a new category of pregnancy. We are now "high risk" and this has meant a host of changes. Kaia now needs to eat for three as opposed to two, I need to make sure Kaia can rest as much as possible when she gets home, and we needed a new doctor. Our old doctor does not handle high risk pregnancies and so this week we learned what it meant to be high risk.

The bigger of the twins.


Kaia wasn't feeling exactly right on Tuesday night and the symptoms continued into Wednesday. We scheduled a doctor visit for the morning and this led to a two day long trek from one clinic to another, to a hospital childbirth wing and finally ending up in the ultrasound room of the coolest doctor I have ever met. The good news is that although Kaia has been having some very small contractions those are under control and it looks like The Gentlemen will stay in place for a good long time. The coolest doctor ever also asked me if I thought The Gentlemen looked identical. He thinks you can sometimes tell from the ultrasound. What do you think?

Smaller, but working on it.
