hi ladies - well, DH and i had a huge huge whoops. we have almost-12 month old twins and just found out i am pregnant. extremely early, only about 5 weeks (although I thought i was further along) but pregnant nonetheless. i went for an ultrasound yesterday since the nurse estimated i'd be 6 weeks at least, but the tech only saw a gestational sac (empty). She said with the size of the sac she thinks i'm only 5 weeks so it's a bit early to see an embryo, although at the end of my u/s she did detect a secondary yolk sac whatever that is!
i work FT as does DH, and we have a ton of help already with the twins. my parents, in laws, and a nanny who is wonderful and available 4 days/week. however i am so so scared and stressed! i'm worried that i won't be able to run around with our twins as they learn to walk and run, and also will be too tired to play with them and give them the attention they need and deserve. plus i'm so scared to start the whole newborn stage again with two 20 month old children. please tell me these are all normal emotions. i'm thrilled at the possibility of being pregnant but scared when that whole thing wears off and then reality sets in of having 3 children under 2 years old! help! any advice or support is greatly appreciated.
Re: 3U2 - scared silly!
Good luck and welcome to the board!
The easiest thing was they were so young there wasn't much, if any, jealously.
It was and still is hard but it is so much fun. My boys are best friends and many people ask us if they are triplets. You will love it! Good luck.
Besides, if having 2u2 was so terrible, we wouldn't have decided to add another child to our family!
