Success after IF

efhoping

It's hard, I ain't going to lie!

I've been really sick and so tired. I am thankful for having a great support system. My MIL and mom have been awesome helping out. The first trimester I could eat or stay awake. I will say it's getting easier now that I am not as sick and I am getting a bit of energy back now.

I am just tired and you know twins are demanding, especially when they want their momma!

Now if you ask me if I could go back and wait or do the same thing, I will tell you I would have still done the same thing. You get passed it somehow and it's only 9 months right and then you get to take care of twin toddlers and a NB :)

I hope I didn't scare you, just being honest from my experience.

 I can tell you, you won't as much about your belly this time around. The girls sit on it, kick it and I still have a healthy baby in there:)

Good luck and feel free to ask questions:)

Re: efhoping

  • Thank you so much for your honest opinion :)  I greatly appreciate that so I can strategize and plan!  My parents live out of state and my inlaws live out of the country so I am a bit worried about handling things but what can you do?  They do not even know we are cycling!  How did you handle the rest after transfer and lifting restrictions, did you have any?  They want me to rest for two days, I think one day is pushing it and not lift anything heavy until ultrasound, which is impossible!  What about being exhausted and nauseous while chasing your twins?  I guess I am at the point where I am worried about the snowblasties even surviving thaw, I just found out that they are being thawed today and will be checked tomorrow morning, so perhaps I am getting ahead of myself but I am trying to think positive.  I hope to be asking you a lot more questions in the future, good luck with the rest of your pregnancy!
