Singleton baby on the way
Well I am a little chagrined that I put my prediction out here on my journal yesterday because boy was I wrong. We have one tiny little baby. We have started calling the little one Squirt (but Marty can't remember Squirt and always says Sprout). Squirt is just exactly the right size for gestational age (9.2 mm), and has a heartbeat over 70 beats (per minute, I think). So baby deLannoy is so far extremely perfect (as his or her siblings have been). I suppose it's pretty easy to be perfect when you are the size of a grain of rice and suspended in a sac full of water. There's really not that much trouble you can get into.
I must admit that I was slightly disappointed that the other baby did not survive the transfer, but both Marty and I are relieved that we'll be having just one. I'm not sure our house could hold six people! We are now going to have to get serious about remodeling our basement so we can move at least one kiddo downstairs.
