I did this with DD too, seems I worry so much all the time. We had our first appointment 2 weeks ago at 8 weeks which is when we found out we were having twins. The doctor said all looks good, the were very close in size and we got to see both of their heart beats. Now I sit here worried that for some reason one of their hearts may have stopped beating. I know it's useless worrying and that everything is more than likely fine but I just can't help but worry about them.
Re: I worry all the time
I'm with you! I've been non-stop worrying since the beginning of this pregnancy. This is my only pregnancy so I'm not sure I would be as worried if I were having 1 baby. I think there is a lot more to worry about with multiples.
Plus, we've had a few complications along the way, so I've never really been able to breathe easy. I always imagined pregnancy to be more care-free, but it's okay, I know in the end it'll be worth it!
I worried like crazy, and I was getting ultrasounds every week! I think 95% of it had to do with the struggles/losses we went through to get pregnant.
My worrying lessened once I could feel each of the babies moving all around in there, which probably wasn't until 20+ weeks. But even now, if one baby doesn't move as much as she did the day before, I get a little scared.
I can only imagine the level of worrying I will do once they're here!
After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!
I worried for both pregnancies and don't really think I got to enjoy being pregnant at all!
My DD I had major issues with my BP from like 25 weeks on and they kept have me do 24 urine tests and blood work. I kept having to check my BP at home. I knew what could happen and I worried about that. I was induced 10 days early because of BP and she was fine.
I thought with the 2nd pregnancy I would be better, nope at 12 weeks I found out it was twins and my OB told me that we would have to take it day by day. Set the whole tone up for that pregnancy.
I also did crazy stuff being pregnant. Every time I went pee I had to check the toilet paper to make sure there was no blood on it. I did this through both pregnancies. I couldn't stop it, it was like OCD and it drove me nuts.
I don't think you stop worring about your kids from the moment you find out about them. That is just a mom.
