Back from 1st ultrasound...we saw....

2 gestational sacs!!!

Holy cow. I asked the doctor if he was kidding....twice ;-)

Baby A has a gestational sac, yolk sac and heartbeat. Wow, amazing. i cried, of course.

Baby B has only a gestational sac at this point. The doc thinks maybe there was a shadow of a yold sac forming, but can't be sure. So, we will see if little Baby B makes it. I know that whatever happens, it is out of our hands at this moment...so we just pray for them both!!!

I am a twin, and while having twins scares me to death, i think my good relationship with my brother comes from us having no age gap at all, we are very close. So, if we are blessed with twins, we will certainly be overjoyed!!!

Thanks ladies for the T&P! Oh, and the fluid from OHSS is subsiding, so no draining needed. still need the big lady pants though....i guess i should get used to that!

That's so exciting, congratulations. Fingers crossed for Baby B to catch up - I think it's common for one twin to be a bit behind.

Wow! Congrats x 2!

I've heard a lot of stories with the second baby being a little behind! Best wishes he/she catches up soon! Congrats!

Wow, congratulations! I hope Baby B is able to catch up soon! And yay for not needing to get drained!

That's awesome! Congratulations and I hope Baby B catches up also. Also glad to hear about the fluid subsiding. I was in maternity pants by 5.5 weeks. My sister thought i was crazy, but it was just not comfortable to wear my normal pants any longer.

On the other thread about returning from the RE, I'm in Austin. We are actually going to cookoff this weekend in Houston. I'm not sure how long I'll last with my cankles, but it'll be fun until then!
