Hello MoM's!!
This is the check in for the week.
Is there anyone who is willing/able/eager to help with the checkins? I don't mind posting a new thread each week, but I am not able to copy/paste from the prior weeks stats and update from Mobile. I don't know when my computer issues will be resolved and I don't want to miss out on the new people coming and there have been quite a few new babies born since my computer decided to revolt.
Please PM me if you can help. Thanks!!
Mono/Di Twins - Due March 3, 2014 (Realist EDD - Feb 5, 2014)
Mommy to Jericho - 2 Years Old.
Re: MoM's Check In Week of 10/28
Week - 22w0d
Team/type - blue / mo/di
Upcoming Appts - Fri is my full anatomy scan again. At 19 weeks baby A was measuring behind so I'm going weekly now. I'm nervous about it, I hope he stays at or below 25%.
QOTW - I'm sure I won't be able to raise three boys (I have a singleton boy who is 2) without having various jerseys for different teams. DH is a big lakers fan, so DS already has a lakers jersey. I think we also have a 3mo Lakers sleeper, so we will probably get more. We don't really do football games, mostly because DH isn't home on the weekends and works Mondays. So that's when I watch TLC
Mono/Di Twins - Due March 3, 2014 (Realist EDD - Feb 5, 2014)
Mommy to Jericho - 2 Years Old.
Team/Type? Green/di/di
Updates? I'm really starting to feel a lot of movement, which is fun. DS (who's 2 1/2) was able to feel a little bump the other day which was really cute. Definetly starting to get sore, winded, and tired a lot more easily. And weight gain! I started out really slow but I gained almost a pound A DAY last week. Not super worried about it as I'm still below where my MFM suggested I try to be by now, but it's really making me watch my diet a little better.
Upcoming appointments? Nothing until November 12th when we have our next growth scan.
QOTW: Will/Do your babies be wearing/wear any sports related onesies?
Absolutely! I'm a huge Packer and Wisconsin Badger fan so we're stocking up now, especially since we moved to a new state. DH is also a big St. Louis Cardinals fan so they will have plenty of that to wear since we live in MO now.
32 weeks 1 day today. See the MFM on Thursday and will start my weekly NSTs. Got my Rhogham shot last week. Still need to run to CVS to get my flu shot. I believe both girls are still breech and they continue to kick me in the crotch which hurts...bad. Have multiple BHs each day but when I was monitored at the hospital last Monday my cervix was still high, thick and closed. fFn test came back negative that day. Hoping to find out when my MFM will let me schedule my c-section with my OB. OB last week said he may even push it to 39 weeks. Ahhh. I'm hoping to schedule it for the week after Thanksgiving (37 weeks). Once we know, we'll get airline tickets for my mom to get out here.
QOTW: We are Lakers, Dodgers and USC Trojan fans. Maybe next year they'll get USC shirts. Otherwise DD wears a Dodger hat or shirt we got from Old Navy.
Hang in there ladies!
I also am seeing my perinatologist and OBGYN next Monday. I am excited to see the babies again and see if we can figure out if something is up in my ribs causing me my pain. Hopefully they are still being troopers and growing like crazy!

Upcoming appointments? I have an endocrinologist appt on Thursday and my OB on Friday. Im excited im up to every two weeks now for the OB! Startting at 32 weeks I will go in to L&D twice a week for NSTs (due to being type 1 diabetic). So its going to get really busy really quickly for me.
Team/Type? Green for now di/di
Updates? Nothing really. I feel like my belly popped this week and there's been a ton of stretching and sore hips. I don't think I feel movement yet but their placentas are anterior.
Upcoming appointments? I see the OB today and my ri tomorrow.
QOTW: Will/Do your babies be wearing/wear any sports related onesies?
They will! We are cubs and bears fans do I can guarantee they'll have those. I bet someone gets them white Sox stuff tho.

PAIF/SAIF welcome!
Team/Type? Pink x2!
Updates? Had our diagnostic ultrasound last Thursday. The tech couldn't tell if there was one or two placentas. No dividing line. Kinda bummed we won't know if they're identical or fraternal until they are born. The girls look really great though! They only have a few day size difference (at 16 weeks they were a week apart in size). We also had a midwife appointment yesterday and we talked about typing out our birth plan (which I've never done before with my other 2 pregnancies).
Upcoming appointments? My next OB appointment isn't until November 14.
QOTW: Will/Do your babies be wearing/wear any sports related onesies?
Ohhhh yes!!! I'm a huge 49ers fan!! We already have some hand me downs from my son that the girls can wear. And I'm sure we'll be getting more!
Team/Type? Waiting for gender u/s and we think di/di with fused placentas.
Updates?
I'm still having m/s. I'm ready to eat again! And feel babies move!
Upcoming appointments?
Nov 7 MFM hopefully u/s and find out genders. Nov 18 OB w GD test.
QOTW: Will/Do your babies be wearing/wear any sports related onesies?
DH and I don't like sports. But 15 yr old son loves the USC Carolina gamecocks college football team. So in sure we will have to get a onesie or shirt for him to be happy lol
Week? 35(tomorrow)
Team/Type? Blue di/di
Updates? No updates since I've never posted before but I'm just chugging along with everything still looking good. Only thing is baby b is still breech! And he probably doesn't have room to turn
Upcoming appointments? Have a check up on fri. Will finally see the dr delivering my babies (she's only in the office 4 times a month so I've only gotten to see her once so far). We'll discuss my birth plan and figure out exactly what I should do since baby a is head down but baby b is breech. If she is comfortable delivering a breech baby or turning him once baby a is out then I can try for vaginal. But if not then I need to decide on a csec!
QOTW: Will/Do your babies be wearing/wear any sports related onesies?
I don't like sports at all.. I'll watch them if we are at my inlaws since they are avid fans of all sports and there's always some sort of game on tv. But unless my husband or his parents buy the twins the onsies they are sticking with the cute animal and jungle onsies! (Which are cuter anyways IMO)!
Mo/di... This should be confirmed on the 7th
M/s is getting better, still get tired in the afternoons, starting to get a pinching pain in my lower back ( I think it's from carrying DD and the boy I watch)
Anxiously awaiting my appt with the perinatologist on the 7th. Want to see those babies again and make sure they are both ok.
Yes, DD has Denver Broncos and Rockies gear. My stepdad also just sent a bunch of Marshall gear (he went to school there). I'm from Chicago so I need to get my hands on some Cubs gear!
Finally feeling good enough to post!
Week: 15 weeks today! Yippee!
Team/Type: di/di so far team purple
Updates: Started a migraine cycle on Saturday morning that had me throwing up on and off on Saturday, everything on Sunday, was okish on Monday but again, threw up everything I ate or drank yesterday Finally got ahold of the OB office after calling two days in a row and they have me doing a 48 hour stint of alternating between 600 mg of ibuprofen and the prescription of hydrocodone with Tylenol every 3 hours. I think it finally broke the migraine. I haven't thrown up today and feel pretty good Past that, I was gaining slowly and feeling decent.
Upcoming appointments: November 8th I will see my OB one last time before I fire that practice. It is a HUGE group of doctors that neither my husband nor I have been happy with. After multiple stressful days, I found a two doctor MFM practice at the other hospital in the area and I will see them for the first time on November 17th
QOTW: Probably. I have been a Cubs fan since I can remember, but I married a California boy who is a Dodgers fan.. this could get interesting ~laugh~
