23 Weeks 5 days

The nurse this morning could not find baby A's heartbeat with the Doppler device so Dr. Heuser (she is incredible) came by with a portable ultrasound machine.  The babies moved in the night and are now stacked on top of each other.  Both look great.

The doctor said the fluid in the ruptured sac looks good.  Adequate fluid remaining in a ruptured sac has been shown to be a significant factor in carrying pregnancies beyond 25 weeks as well as reducing the incidence of chorioamnionitis and infant mortality.  So fluid levels are always on our minds and Nanette drinks plenty of water to help keep herself well hydrated.

We wanted to post a picture of the flowers that people have brought or delivered.  The nurse came in and said, "Wow your room smells so good!"  And it's true.  Thank you!
