Re: Pregnancy check-in 9/8/14 edition
I am feeling... tired and starting to get more uncomfortable every week. I am scared for how uncomfortable things are going to get down the road. I keep reminding myself that it is all temporary! I have a long way to go so I need to be more positive.
My MFM and OB appointments are next week!
QOTW: We just announced our pregnancy and that they were twins individually because everyone was spread out. We did have a big BBQ over labor day and announced that they were boys!

I just called my dad and told him about the twins. We told my mil in person since she lives close.
Edited to fix how far along I am. I guess I lost track. Good thing I get weekly emails.
Had our 16 week appt on Thursday and both girls are still looking good. Loved seeing them kick each other. I've been having some pelvic pain/cramping /pressure type pain after sitting too long and then having to walk... Any solutions from you all?!
We announced our sizes with sex reveal cards to our parents after our elective ultrasound.
Bringing them both home...UPDATE...The girls are home!!! 1/7/15 after 20 days in the NICU!
We are 17w2d. We had our Anatomy Scan today at Duke. Wow...was exciting. Feeling OK. We are happy to announce that we are officially team....BLUE!!!! We are excited, but I am feeling a little sad about not getting the little girl I dreamed of. I know I am going to love these two lil boys though! We have a low lying placenta and will need to be monitored. SCH is still there...but doesn't seem to be causing any issues or growing. She said it is just one of those things. Both babies looked great. Our 2nd tri. testing all came back great as well. We are beyond excited.
I will post my QOTW: tomorrow! I am currently working on that!
QOTW- We didn't do anything special when we found out about the pregnancy but when we had the first ultrasound we didn't say anything, just passed around the best picture and let everyone figure it out. The looks on their faces were priceless:). Our mothers were the best as they'd gotten texts of pics showing one of the babies to hold them over until we could see them in person. They thought they knew what was going on and were not expecting to see two when we brought the rest of the pics over. I think the only one we had to help was my grandmother- she wasn't paying close attention to the A and B labels in the pic so I finally had to say something like "A looks great and so does B."
@jfoster516 sending thought & prayers your way!
How many weeks along are you? 30w6d
How are you feeling? Tired and ache-y. . . really my hands with ulnar tunnel syndrome, and they don't start to feel normal until the afternoon.
Any Dr. appointments, updates or other exciting news? Next doctor's appt is next week and then I'll start going weekly.
QOTW: How did you tell your family you're expecting twins, or announce their sexes? We told our parents in person as we are at least 4 hrs from each set. We went home to see my parents for Easter & completely surprised them. We put the u/s picture in a picture frame with the quote (parapharsing here) "How can something so small generate so much love." My dad got it right away. . .even the twin part. My mom took like 5 minutes. . .she was turning the frame upside down, got her glasses, tried to get in better light. We facetimed our brothers to let them know and they were all surprised especially with the twin part.

Qotw: How did you tell your family you're expecting twins, or announce their sexes? I actually ended up in the ER with OHSS (my fam knows about IVF) and they drew my blood and my beta was out of control so my mom kind of knew already, but we just called and told them when we knew for sure. No one was very surprised, but they were very happy!

Feeling "ok". Would be good, except my sacrum/ilium area is in EXCRUCIATING pain! I start PT tomorrow, hoping for some relief , it's getting so bad I can barely walk.
Had our echocardiogram on both babies hearts last week - especially A's as she has a thickened right ventricular wall. And, they both are great! A's wall is indeed "prominent" but, isn't causing blood flow restriction and they have no reason to believe there will be any issues going forward. Phew! HUGE relief!
QOTW: we had family pics done with a cute chalkboard sign & banner I made, then posted online. (Had told family weeks earlier just via in person/phone calls)
How are you feeling?
Any Dr. appointments, updates or other exciting news?
N14 Nov. Siggy: CELEBRATION!

How are you feeling?

Any Dr. appointments, updates or other exciting news?
Passed my 3 hr glucose test! Next growth scan and biweekly OB is next Friday. Can't wait to see them!

After our u/s at 7w, we called our parents and told them we saw the heartbeats. MIL caught on right away. My mother kept asking if we meant the heart beat multiple times.
At 12w, I spent a weekend with a couple aunts and cousins. One cousin (my MOH) and her mother knew I was pg, but not about the twins. Once everyone got there, they offered me a glass of wine, and once I turned it down they all figured it out. I waited for the excitement to settle, then brought out the u/s pic and handed it to the aunt who knew. She screamed 'TWO???' It was awesome!
