Re: ~*~ Grad Check-In ~*~
We had a fabulous u/s yesterday. We got to see one beautiful blob with a beating heart. Words cannot describe that feeling and I immediately starting crying. It was a huge milestone for us, we've never made it see a hb before. I was measuring only 6w1d but my OB thought that was right on track. I must have implanted later than I thought, but I'm not trying not to stress too much about it. We don't go back for another 4 weeks. FX for another great report then.
QOTW: I haven't really let myself get too excited with this pregnancy yet. I need to make it out of 1st tri and then maybe I'll calm down. Right now I'm busy googling miscarriage rates after seeing a heartbeat and not enjoying this pregnancy like I should be. No advice from me about good sites and books yet.
I lurk and think of you all often and can't wait to see you on the other side!
Love the invitation, so cute!

Hi girls! (((Hugs))) to anyone who needs one. Or wants one!
I had a great u/s yesterday and I'm so relieved. Baby measured right on track and we got to see the heartbeat! 114! It was the sweetest sight to see baby just fluttering away in there. I've been pretty sick and my fibro has been really bad lately but I'm making it!
I've been stalking and I have my fingers crossed for all of you who are in the 2ww. Can't wait to see more familiar faces in 1st tri.
ETA: Opps forgot the QOTW: honestly I haven't gotten any baby books yet. I know, weird! Instead I'm always on pinterest and reading various blogs etc...
Oh and Monimu13, I love your wedding photo! Too cute and your dress is fabulous!

Hi ladies! I haven't been around here for a while not sure who is still here that remembers me! You are always in my thoughts and prayers! Always lurking too see how you all are!
Things are doing well with me. We found out at 19wks that baby is a BOY! We could not be more overjoyed, we also found out I have partial placenta previa which is where the baby's placenta is covering my cervix a bit so I am on pelvic rest (no sex), no lifting, and no hard exercise. Now we are just praying he moves! Most of the time it does resolve itself is that other % that worries me!
You can check out my blog for some updated photos and info!
QOTW: Well I do love TB! I am also reading the Mayo Clinic pregnancy book but other than that just the fun apps they have!
Katy I love this! I hope you are doing well and feeling good!
Hi lovely ladies,
Hugs to anyone that needs them. We had our MFM appointment yesterday and it went better than expected
I am allowed to return to work next week as long as I still take it easy. While we were at the MFM we got to see the babies and got to see what they are..... we are team blue all the way around. I am happy that we have 2 handsome and healthy babies on board. Baby A is weighing in at 6 ounces and Baby B came in at 7 ounces.
QOTW: I really don't read any one baby websites online. I do have a book for twins that I am constantly reading

Had an insane u/s this morning: thought we were at 7w2d but turns out we are at 6w3d X 2!!! Two healthy strong heart beats and twins matching in size! Dr. was very pleased! I burst into happy tears when I saw the first little heart beat, then panicked when we saw a second one lol. But I think I am good now. My husband is SO excited!
Here is a crappy pic taken of the u/s with my cell phone.
QOTW: I have downloaded about 6 pregnancy books onto my kindle for ipad. Today I downloaded a s#@t ton more on twin pregnancies! I am usually so prepared but NOT FOR THIS! I love "the pregnancy count down book"by Susan Magee.
Hi Ladies!
I have my second ultrasound tomorrow and if all goes well- I'll graduate from the RE. I'm already in a panic about it, but trying to stay positive.
Hope you're all doing well!! xo
I'm still lurking and praying for everyone! Hugs to everyone!
We had our 20w appt today. OB said that all of our genetic/1st tri screening came back negative! Our little man's heartbeat is at 156bpm!
Here's my horrible pic from this week, but I'm half baked!
QOTW: Other than the obvious TB, I read blogs and ask friends that have already BTDT!

Love the idea and the invitation! Also love that you are just doing immediate family, that is definitely what I would do too.
Hi everyone! I have not checked in in a little while, but I want to say that I hope you are all doing well! I miss all you 3T girls!
I can't believe I will be 31 weeks on Saturday. Time has really flown by like crazy. Our nursery is going to be finished probably by the end of next week. We settled on a jungle animal theme, inspired by adorable bedding I found in Target:
https://www.target.com/p/jungle-stack-by-circo/-/A-14348303#prodSlot=medium_2_24
QOTW: I'm reading a book now called "Bringing up Bebe". It is about observations that an American woman made while living in Paris and observing the "French" way of parenting. Its more of just an interesting read than anything else, and I am reserving judgment on what I even think until I am done with the book. For more practical info I really usually just talk to my OB or our pediatrician-to-be. Or my mom, she has been such a huge help.
