Success after IF

Total Shock...

Found out this morning.... I'm pregnant with TWINS.

I'm on a rollercoaster of emotions today.

I'm feeling very, very scared.

 Is that normal?

    Baby N conceived after 1 miscarriage and more than 2 years of TTC. Diagnosis was low sperm count. We found success after 3 months of anastrozole to increase DH's testosterone and one IUI.

  • Congratulations! I hope your reaction is normal because that is exactly how I reacted. I think I am still in denial that there are actually two babies in there. Just take a deep breath and take it one step at a time.

  • Hurray! Congratulations. Yes, it's normal to be worried. It'll be fine though; you just make it work!

  • It's completely normal to be scared.  Pregnancy can be scarey and overwhelming.  Just take one day, one hour, even one minute at a time and you'll be fine.

    Congrats.

    Kelly, Mom to Christopher Shannon 9.27.06, Catherine Quinn 2.24.09, Trey Barton lost on 12.28.09, Therese Barton lost on 6.10.10, Joseph Sullivan 7.23.11, and our latest, Victoria Maren 11.15.12

    Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck.  Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.

  • Double congrats!   The whole range of emotions is totally normal from joy to terror and everything in between, including a lot of "holy crap, what did we do, we're not ready for this?" type feelings (which is particularly ironic given how much most IFers go through to get pg in the firstplace)!  No matter how ready you think you are when you're TTC, there's always a certain amount of panic that sets in when you realize you're actually going to a parent.  Deep breaths.  You can do it!

  • All of the emotions you are feeling are perfectly normal. Although we were prepared for the possibility of twins, DH and I were still floored when we had our first u/s and saw the flickering of two beating hearts. Tears were shed, and not all of them were out of happiness. I still have moments of fear and uncertainty, but recently, I am also experiencing more moments of overwhelming happiness, excitement, and gratitude. Give yourself time to feel all of the emotions you are experiencing right now, and know that none of them are "wrong" or mean that you are any less grateful to be expecting. Congratulations!!
