KCwalza146 · April 2015

Week/Fruits: 17w 5d/ onions

Twin Type, gender if you know (Identical/Fraternal/etc): both girls- I believe di/di due to separate sacs and placentas

Symptoms: I have rheumatoid arthritis- can't do my injections while pregnant. So major joint pain and fatigue, heartburn at night.

Upcoming appointments: Not until April 29th!

Questions/Comments/Complaints/Concerns: I'm going a month between my last appointment and next- that makes me nervous. I also haven't felt them move yet and even though I know that I might not for a few more weeks that makes me nervous too. OH and I'm gaining weight by the second!!

GTKY : What was your initial reaction when you found out you were having twins? Disbelief- I still don't really believe it!

14 weeks/lemons

Momo twins (very rare)

Officially done with morning sickness, so everything else seems like nothing.

Since that are momos we have appointments pretty every week! I had an appointment today and I do the next two Thursdays!

Momo twins are a very scary pregnancy. But luckily, we are now in the comfort zone. I have amazing doctors! I have to be hospitalized at 20 weeks until their arrival so that's always a scary situation. But they are growing perfectly and are as healthy as can be.

We were 100% shocked. But so, so excited! I'm a FTM so I get to knock it all out at once!

@darianmannn wow you have to hospitalized at 20 weeks?! Momo is same sac and same placenta right? I'm glad everything is going well so far!!

darianmannn · April 2015

@KCwalza146 yes! Its extremely rare. And very scary. Their little cords get so tangled. I'm actually very relieved I'll be put in so early because then they monitored 24/7 so they will be very taken care of.

Forgot on the symptoms: sinus congestion /bloody nose. It's driving me insane right now. Tried the humidifier, but that didn't work and the nose sprays make me queasy.

Are you being monitored every two weeks now? My twins are also different sacs same placenta, I was told I wouldn't be having ultrasounds every 2 weeks until 24 weeks.
