  Happy Thursday, ladies.

  Nothing new to report here this week. I have been feeling okay other than the migraines. Ended up in the ER on Monday with a terrible one. NT scan is tomorrow! I cannot wait to get a good look at how LO is progressing.
  
  I am still lurking on you all constantly and cheering for each of you from the sidelines! 
  
  QOTW:  Hmmmm....probably Christmas. I love the music and decorating the tree and being with family. I think a close second would be Halloween. I love carving a pumkin every year and dressing my dogs up to meet the trick or treaters!

  Good morning! ((hugs)) to those who need them and I'm crossing my fingers for all of you!  

  
  

  I am 6 weeks 2 days. We had our first ultrasound on Tuesday and found out we are having twins! They are fraternal and are measuring about five weeks, so we were only able to see the yolks. I'm going back in next Wednesday to get checked again. I'm shocked because I only had one lead follicle when I triggered. One of my little ones must have decided to join the party! Baby A is a little bit smaller than Baby B, so hopefully next week there will be growth and heart beats!

  
  

  QOTW: I love Christmas. It's the only time of year that I get to see my entire family.

  Hi ladies!  Still lurking on a daily basis and 'loving' your posts to show support.  I'm rooting for you girls and miss posting with you terribly.  I'm using my update as a PSA .... Do not walk down wet stairs in cheap flip flops. 
  
  Definitely fell down 7 stairs this weekend.  All I could think was, "Fall on your ass.  Fall on your ass.  Fall on your ass."  Well, I fell on my ass.  My butt is various shades of blue, purple and black.  Bruises on my arms, legs and back.  Went to the doctor on Monday because I started to cramp and I wanted to make sure that little bean was ok. 
  
  We had our first abdominal ultrasound (I was shocked I didn't have to bare my lady parts) and we were able to see that our little bean still had a strong heartbeat.  This ultrasound was great because we finally got to see the baby move - kicking and punching up a storm!  Such a relief.
  
  So please, be careful while wearing cheap flip flops and walking down wet stairs .... Please. 
  XOXOXO

  Hey 3T! I have some little updates this week, had a checkup appt last Friday and the baby still has a strong heart rate. I'm 17w2d today- when did that happen!? Our A/S is scheduled for 2 weeks from today, we're staying team green so just hoping that baby is healthy. H and I wanted to wait til after that to buy anything big, but this weekend we randomly found a great deal on a pretty good crib so we ordered on a whim thinking it'd take weeks to ship. Nope, got an email the next day that it shipped and was delivered yesterday, so now we have a crib! It's the only sign in the house that there's a baby coming besides my books since we haven't bought anything else so it's a little weird, but exciting! I started a private registry too.
  
  Hope that you all are doing ok, I still check in and read your posts all of the time.
  
  QOTW Christmas, I love decorating, baking, holiday movies, seeing family, etc.

  @Calindi - I sent you a PM the other day.  I'm guessing your mobile most of the time.  Wanted to say congrats on the singleton!

  Hey ladies,
  
  I hope you are all doing well. I think 3T is overdue for some BFP's, so I am hoping to see some soon.
  
  I am 23 weeks this week. Nothing special to report. Little one is kicking me often and you can definitely tell I am pregnant now. My belly seems to be getting bigger everyday.
  
  Lots of hugs to those that need them.

  Hello 3T!   Sorry to be a little late checking in.  I've been rooting for you all and hope to see more of you on PAIF soon!  Hang in there.  

  
  

  I'm 21 weeks and 5 days.  The twins are doing well.  I go for my next appt. on June 11th.  I'm up 5+ times a night to pee but other than that.....no complaints!    I am counting down only 15 school days until the close of the school year.  Can't wait to have the summer!  

  
  

  QOTW:  I'd have to say that Christmas is my most favorite, but I am true fan of the autumn season and love all that leads up to the Christmas season.....
