New here....and freaking out....

lrrb

Hi!  Just had my first ultrasound today (we did IVF) and sure enough both embryos stuck, we are having TWINS.   I can't believe it.  I had a LOT of bleeding the first week (none for over a week now) so I'm just so shocked that they both hung in there.

We also have two other sweet girls, one adopted and one biological and are only 5 months apart.  So where I have never had a twin pregnancy or two newborns at once, I do know what its like to have two babies.  

I hope this shock wears off soon.  Someone please tell me it's going to be okay? haha!  4 KIDS?!?!?!?!?!

Congratulations!!!! Twins are amazing and you are going to love it! Your girls are going to adore being big sisters too. My DD absolutely loves "her" babies. H&H 9 months to you!

It will all work out, you'll see! Enjoy your two sweet girls, every minute of it. And enjoy your pregnancy!

It is going to be great! If it makes you feel any better about having four kids... These little surprises will make FIVE BOYS for me!

Congrats, and welcome to the four under four club . You'll be fine! My "big" girls were younger than your girls will be, but in my experience, having two older ones is easier than just having one older one. They'll have each other, and can entertain themselves while you tend to the babies. I wish you lots of luck with your pregnancy

Congrats x2!!! So happy for you and your family! This board is a wonderful resource for your multiples pg!

My best friend has DDs that are 6 months apart! She adopted a newborn and had a biological daughter 6 months later. Such a beautiful blessing!

Ts &Ps for a H&H pg!

Congrats!!  I stopped here before SAIF, so I haven't seen your update there yet.  You'll do fine...you're already ahead of most of us here with your experience with your two girls.  I can only imagine the shock though!

I was a first time mom when I found out we were having twins.I was the youngest in the family and never around babies. Having one was scary enough.  I freaked out too. But it has been the most fun and rewarding experience ever. You just adjust and it seems normal to you. The first 3-4 months were hard, don't get me wrong. Mine are almost 8 months now and we enjoy them so much!

Congratulations!! (How did I miss this on SAIF??)  You're going to do awesome... think of how wonderful your sweet girls are.  These 2 will be, too!

Congratulations and welcome.

I don't know why but I had a feeling you were having twins when I first heard of your positive. You are the 4th person in less than a year that I've had that feeling with.

Congrats! I don't have any advice for 4 kids but I think you will be just fine with another 2 the same age since your girls are so close together!
