Re: MoMs check in Week of 12/2
I'm 27 weeks today! One more week until check point #2. I'm getting excited
Team/Type - Double Blue Mo/Di
Updates : Baby A is back to measuring behind again. This time 20% instead of 27%. So I'm back to getting full scans every 2 weeks.
Next Appt -Dec 17th. I will be 29 weeks then though, which makes me feel better
QOTW - I went out on Fri with my son, who is 2. I was so scared about crowds but Target and Best Buy we're dead (this was at 11am though) and I got DH an Xbox. Diapers.com had a great deal on cloth so my parents hooked me up with some bumGenius freetimes.. Like 10!! I'm so excited. Yes, I'm getting cloth diapers for Christmas

Mommy to Jericho - 2 Years Old.
Just found out last week we're expecting one of each! I'm so excited and also a little scared that maybe they were wrong. Oh well I'll take healthy babies either way!
I see my MFM Friday. Hopefully everything looks good. My cervix looked great at my last u/s so I'm just hoping that continues.
Didn't go shopping this year. I really missed it, but DH put his foot down because I've been trying to take it easy.
Team/Type: Pink x 2 (di/di)
Any updates? C-section is scheduled for Wednesday at 7:30am. It can't come soon enough.
QOTW - Did you score any awesome Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals? Nothing yet.
Team/Type: Green di/di
Any updates? I started to have swelling in my legs yesterday and more BH than usual. We just got back from a week with my family and a 9 hour drive the night before, so I'm sure I overdid it. I spent most of the day on the couch and things seem a little better today. I guess I better get used to slowing down a little - but it's so hard!
When is your next appt? Dec. 9th for a growth scan. I'm curious to see if the babies have moved or are still ying/yang transverse.

I'm bitter about this today for two reasons. First, I went online to get a train table for DS, thought it would be great for when the twins come. I had the item in my cart and was looking for one more thing for free shipping. By the time I went to check out the train table was gone. I was so mad at myself.
Second, I got a great deal on a kitchen for DS. We had told family we were getting this to give them ideas of other gifts. SIL went out and bought him a kitchen too so now it looks like we either have 2 kitchens and DS doesn't get to open mine or I have to take it back. All in all, not the end of the world but I'm just disappointed that both things I was really excited to get DS have fallen through. I'm sure the pregnancy hormones aren't helping this.
Sorry for turning this into a vent!
Team/Type purple di/di
Any updates? not too much actually - just dealing with hip pain while sleeping - it really sucks.
When is your next appt? Thurs for ob/gyn and then BPPs start at 32 weeks.
QOTW - Did you score any awesome Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals? The only thing I've bought is my twin z nursing pillow since they had a $15 off coupon code - I figured I might as well buy it since I don't think they have a ton of sales on it.

Any updates? No new updates! I usually get ultrasounds monthly and mentally I do great for the first 2 weeks and I feel positive during this time! Well it is like clockwork, when I hit 2 weeks since last ultrasound I start to worry and it continues for the remainder of the 2 weeks weeks until my ultrasound! I seriously pray for strength!
Yesterday I was getting out my decorative snowmen and my putting up my christmas tree and my back/whole body was killing me! I did push myself just a little longer to get more done and then just laid on the couch and started crying. I hardly ever cry and I just laid there the rest of the night!

Any updates? @NBA0703 - I feel exactly the same way. I have been going nuts leading up to my u/s hoping that everything is still OK. I am still only feeling occasional rolls and no kicks. I can't tell which baby I feel either. Anxious to know they're both OK.
When is your next appt? this Wednesday
QOTW - Did you score any awesome Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals?
Nah. I don't like to fight the crowds, especially not this year. We did stop at Lowe's mid-day on Friday for a gift for my dad, but we were just in and out with no lines or drama. I'm probably going to do most of my gift shopping online, but not sure I'll get to it today. I have vowed not to shop for the babies until after my showers.

Mo/di and we should find out sex on Wed!
I've grown tired of eating all the time. I'm still hungry but just don't want to make food. Ugh. DH and DD both got a stomach bug over Thanksgiving, which I somehow escaped. It made me nervous bc I know I've been exposed and hoping the babies were not impacted even though I had no symptoms.
Appt with MFM for growth scan on Wed morning.
Didn't venture out on Friday but I'm supposed to be finishing some photo books now so I can take advantage of 60% off on Snapfish. Still have a lot of work to do!
@tootsscott Are they letting you off bedrest at some point or is it until you deliver?? I hope there is an end to that in sight for you! Glad you made it home tho!
My OB is doing my RCS at 37 weeks due to my type 1 diabetes and the increased risk of placenta deterioration. I think the amnio is a bit extreme since I see people on here who have scheduled c-sections at 37 weeks with twins all the time but I def would rather be safe.
Team/Type: This is still a little confusing to me, maybe you ladies could help me out. We had two eggs and when we had our first ultrasound they were separate and still they are on opposite sides. I need some twin knowledge
Any updates? MS is starting to get much better and I am getting hungry again which is great, but I have to eat small meals about every two hours.
When is your next appt? We have an elective gender scan on the 14th and then an OB appt on the 20th followed by our level II ultrasound on xmas eve, my mom will be in town and is so excited to come along.
QOTW - Did you score any awesome Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals? We went out and got some tommee tippee bottles at babies r us and some wipes, my parents ordered our cribs which were also on black friday sale.

Any updates? Just got back from our appt and we got to see our wiggly little ones dance around today. Most importantly, we finally got to hear their heartbeats on the doppler! Woohoo!
When is your next appt? We're waiting for the MFM to schedule our NT, since there's two they have to do back to back appts for each of them? It'll be before the 26th though.

Any updates?
Oh yes....started leaking fluid late last night but chalked it up to sitting too long and then standing. Well it happened at work today multiple times. 15 minutes after using the bathroom, I had leaked through my underwear and pants. I went to L&D and tested positive for amniotic fluid and therefore a water broke. I'm in magnesium to prolong labor as much as we can and was given a steroid shot to help the babies lung development. I'm in the hospital until they make their appearance.

Growth check and final cervix check was today. Baby A just over 5lbs and Baby B just under 5 lbs. Weekly biological profiles from here on out. MFM doc things Christmas week (week 37) is a very probable week for delivery.
MFM doc also said that the placenta with twins starts to "go bad" after 37 weeks. Like a singelton placenta starts to "go bad" after 40. I had not heard/read that before, so that was news to me and DW.
When is your next appt?
MFM was today, OB is tomorrow. Weekly appointments with both for the remainder of the pregnancy.
