October 2014 Moms

I fainted at the doctor's office.

I had my routine appt this morning, but when the doctor had trouble getting a heartbeat he sent me down the hall for a u/s.  After being on the table for a few minutes, the tech says, "well, there are definitely 2 sacs."  My response was a strangled "what?!?!" and sat straight up.  Tech answers with, "two sacs, 2 babies, and 2 heartbeats." 

That's where I fainted.  I woke up a moment or two later, but as a precaution they put me on fluids and had me rest for a few hours at the hospital  It's stupid, I know, but the idea of twins had never crossed my mind.  There are definitely 2 babies.  Baby A is measuring 11wks 6 days, and baby B is measuring 11wks 3days.  I'm still in shock and I'm not sure how I feel about it yet.

  • Thanks everyone!

    I think I'm going to need a few days to wrap my head around being a mom of 5 instead of 4.  FI is a giggling mess.  He was there and just hasn't stopped grinning.

  • Congrats and welcome to the club :) There's at least a dozen of us, probably more lurking. We were shocked as well, it took a week or so for it to sink in. The Multiples board is a great reference and support group. Hope you're feeling better!
