Back again - this time twins!
Hello everyone! It has been quite some time since I have spent much time on theBump website, as my son was born 2 1/2 years ago. Last time I was here, it was a pretty standard pregnancy and I guess I was one of the "lucky ones" - no real complications, no bad pregnancy symptoms. Just a smooth, easy pregnancy. Well, I guess someone thought it was too easy because last week I found out I am expecting twins (mo/di)!
That was the last thing we were expecting to hear, to say the least. I am getting used to the idea and getting more excited each day, but still scared to death. I am sure that is nothing new to this group. Along with the financial and life changing fears come all new worries that I haven't really had before - worries of all new pregnancy complications. I am 10 weeks along - due June 17th. I am 5'1" and 107 lbs. So far no major body changes, just really nauseous this time around and very "crampy".
I really appreciate everyone here and there support and guidance. I am sure I will be on with lots of questions and reading everyone's updates. Thanks to all for making us not feel so alone in all of this - especially for someone who was so unprepared for "twins" news!

7/30/12 - B/G twins born at 33w4d due to PPROM
Congrats! One of the girls in my twin MoMs club (find your local club if you can), is small like you, delivered her twins between 34 and 35 weeks, and they were bigger than mine delivered at 35w6d by a few ounces each, and had zero NICU time, so it can totally be done! Don't worry about it unless you have to. You're body will handle it! Oh, and I am not small at all!
Good luck and congrats!
