HELP :
JoDoc - EDD please?
Jocie2581 - EDD please
Diego299 - Edd please - Di/Di twins
Bed rest ladies, I think someone was going to be doing a bedrest checkin, but I haven't been able to update this because I'm not really sure. Also, if anyone has any requests for prayers & positive thoughts please let me know. I'm trying to go through posts and update as much as possible. If you're skipped, it's not intentional.

Re: MoMs to be check-in! Week of 9/9
All is well over here. 18 weeks and counting down until our next sono at 21 weeks to see our little boys again. I have been feeling little movements lately but wasn't sure if it was 'really' them since its still early. Well, yesterday it was for sure! All day long I felt their little nudges and I couldn't get enough!
25 weeks 1 day
I was put on modified bedrest last Wednesday due to high blood pressure. My MFM doc isn't concerned since he said all blood pressure will be high if they don't let you rest a few minutes before taking it. I have a machine at home and it consistently gives me 110-120/167-175. I also gained 12 pounds since my last appointment so they are having me take my GD test this Thursday. I'm also doing a 24 hour urine collection starting tomorrow morining. Yay! (sarcasm)
My MFM doc has me on a high protein/low carb diet to help with my high level of amniotic fluid. Since I started this diet last Wednesday, I've lost some pounds.
The girls are growing great, 1 pound 6 oz a piece.
Checking in for myself. Today I'm 15 weeks and I have both OB and MFM appts next week. Hoping to find out about the genders next week, but at the same time I don't want to know.
Trying so hard to drink tons of water and increase my protein. Increasing protein is not easy work!
I bought a doppler this weekend and got to hear the heartbeats for the first time. I found both too!! (Which my OB said wasn't possible..) One at 140ish the other at 150ish.
T&P's to everyone. Been thinking of all of our ladies lately and I am so thankful for this board!
Mono/Di Twins - Due March 3, 2014 (Realist EDD - Feb 5, 2014)
Mommy to Jericho - 2 Years Old.
My OB has recommended an iron supplement because I'm exhausted. I feel like I get more tired every day. Also I'm getting a blood test to check for cholestasis because I've had some itching in my hands and feet, just to be on the safe side. I am definitely starting to get pretty uncomfortable now ... short of breath, no comfortable positions to sit in, nauseous ... yay third trimester, lol.
I am pregnant with di/di girls. 30 weeks 3 days with due date of 11/15/13. I have been on home bedrest since 21&6 due to shortened cervix. I was admitted at 26&6 for PTL and received mag/steroids/toradol and finally back home after 6 days on nifedipine with a pessary placed. My cervix is around 1cm now and next appointment is Friday. I am hoping to make it to 34 or 35 weeks. Baby B is being watched for IUGR since she is only 10.5% on the growth chart. However, discordance remains good at 12%. Bedrest is long and boring, but trying to take it a day at a time.
I had my last MFM appointment today and Baby A is measuring 5.6 lbs and Baby B is measuring 5 lbs. Time is flying by now!!
A- 09/2006 I- 04/2010 N- 04/2012 M & G- 01/2014
I haven't updated in awhile! I am pregnant with twin di/di girls ( Sadie and Scarlet) Had an ultrasound the other day and both girls are head down and super low making it pretty uncomfortable! I will be 29 weeks on Thursday and have my first MFM appointment this Friday!
Hi! 26w3d with my 2 boys. Lots of movement, in fact it feels like the one is training for the Tour De' France some days. I swear he's peddling a bicycle! Otherwise, all is well. I have had strange hip pain though, only on my right side. A few nights ago it felt like someone shot me with a shotgun. (Not that I've ever had that experience, but it's what came to mind) Doing well and wishing I could tie my shoes like a normal person again. Ugh, such is life!
HELP :
JoDoc - EDD please? If that means "Estimated Due Date" it's December 14th, you have it correct on the list. If it means something else, please let me know.

PAIF/SAIF welcome!
I have another ultrasound on Thursday at 10 weeks. I get so nervous before them, just too much worrying that we aren't going to see a heartbeat or something. I don't know if that's infertility brain or just normal mom worrying but I wish I could just believe this is really happening a bit more. Maybe that will be my goal in the next few weeks.
I also worry about when to tell people. I feel huge already although my friends tell me it just looks like I've gained a few lbs. (Yes- I realize that saying "huge" at 9 weeks to this group is ridiculous). I'm trying to wait till 11 or 12 weeks to spill the beans but I feel like people will notice sooner if they haven't already.
Hello! I am 17 weeks 2 days with spontaneous triplets. I am due Feb 15, 2014 with 3 little princesses. Baby A and Baby B are identical and little Baby C is our "singleton". We are planning on naming the Kinley Elizabeth (A), Brinley Nicole (B), and Avery Kate (C). I'm excited to make new MoMs friends and follow on all your journeys!

Twin girls! 3/6/14
I'm 8 weeks and 1 day, I believe. Pregnant with twins, don't know what type, but guessing from the ultrasound pictures some of you have posted of both times, mine are not identical (very blatant thick membrane between the two). Honestly trying to stay positive, but spending most of the day in bed with nausea, and a throbbing in my left temple that does not want to go away since I had a migraine two days ago ><
BUT!!! All the complaining aside, I'm expecting twins! ~happy dance~

I go to my first MFM appointment on Thursday the 19th. I'm really excited to potentially find out sexes of babies but mainly anxious to see if everything checks out okay with their health. I'm counting down the minutes.
