The big news is.....we are having ONE bouncing, baby Stout! We are thrilled. We went in for our ultrasound at 4:00 today around 3:30 (we were so excited). Dr. Akin got us right in. At the beginning of the ultrasound Dr. Akin said he saw multiples. He said it looks like you are having twins. After a few seconds looking around he concluded that we had a phantom twin (the embryo tried to implant, but eventually stopped developing, it will either absorb back into my body or I will miscarry that baby). Dr. Akin reassured us that the other baby is not in any danger, and he has seen this in other pregnancies. We are THRILLED to be blessed with ONE little baby and just pray that God continue to strengthen this child and protect it.
We have pictures....see above. Baby Stout is at the top between the two x's. The other bubble is the infamous phantom twin. We saw the sweetest little flicker on the monitor and that happened to be the heartbeat. Praise God, at 6 weeks this child has a heartbeat. Blown away. One thing to read about it online, another to see it with our own eyes. As you can tell we are ecstatic!!
Love,
Em, Colin, and Baby Stout
