  • Hi can I be added please! My EDD is May 29th with one bean! I'm 7w1d today and I have no updates but a boring appointment on Monday.
    @beebee08 I can take over if no one else minds
  • Loading the player...
  • No big updates, except I am in need of some maternity pants...at 10 weeks, this is cray cray.  We have our next OB appt/ultrasound at 12 weeks.  Another 2 weeks til I get to see them again.  Getting off my suppositories soon, super stoked about that!  My nausea has gotten better over the last couple days, it worries me a little...but I'm trying to think positive thoughts :)

  • Hi! Nothing really new here- been feeling okay but nausea creeps back up off and on. Still exhausted and in bed super early though!
    I ordered a few pairs of maternity pants as I am getting uncomfortable and did not really like the belly bands. My question is- the thighs and butt fit okay now in the maternity pants! Should I be buying bigger sizes if I want them to last a few months? The belly part is elastic with plenty of room to grow but I am nervous that they fit okay otherwise?? I already ordered a size up from my pre-pregnancy size.

  • I had my NT scan this week. They are both still there and look good. I am still shocked that I am having twins. I tend to get overwhelmed thinking about how I will manage everything. I need DH to start doing more but I don't know how to ask without him getting defensive.

    I work more than he does and make 4x more so working less is not an option for me.

    I am telling a few girlfriends tonight, but overall I am not ready for this pregnancy to be common knowledge yet.

    I stopped all progesterone which I happy about and now are just taking the lovenox and baby aspirin.

    My next appointment isn't until November 14 because I am going to be in Florida for awhile!

  • I don't know if anyone saw my post earlier this week, but we had a scary week!  Tuesday I started bleeding and cramping at work.  I called my RE and they said to come on over.  Everything looks good on u/s and the SCH I had is gone, so that's reassuring and probably where the bleeding was from, but I am still freaking out.  I was already nervous but starting to enjoy and believe I was actually pregnant, and now I am a nervous wreck again!  I start weaning meds this weekend, and my next u/s is Wednesday.  I took off from work and they have been really supportive.  I think I'll feel better once I'm through the first trimester, but then I guess there's always something to worry about!

    I'm 9w3d. Still dealing with lots of nausea, yesterday I could hardly get off the couch! And yet I'm still so worried about something going wrong. My previous loss milestone was 9 weeks, so I'll be a wreck till I see LO again, or pick up a hb on the Doppler. My next u/s isn't until the 24th which will be 11 weeks.

    Can I be added please? :-)

    Currently 3 weeks 5 days and if it's a singleton due date is June 26th! To say I'm excited to be here is an understatement haha!

    Next beta is tomorrow and u/s should be close to the end of the month.

  • Forgot to check in! I'm so happy that everyone is doing okay this week. We are 10 weeks and have told both families at this point. At the end of next week, we're going to start telling friends. It has been so exciting! I'm having some trouble picking a midwife - I keep going back and forth between two that I loved. I know that we'll make the right decision, but I really wish I knew how to "know" who is the right match for us. Anyways, we've done four interviews/consultations with four different midwives and/or midwife practices. I know we have done our homework, so I guess it's just a "go with our gut" kind of thing.
