GTKY: If money were no issue and you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?

How far along are you? 12w1d

How big are babies? 2 little plums

Appts this week? Had my NT Scan and Harmony test yesterday. Both babies look great and very healthy. They're fraternal and unofficially A is a girl and B is a boy. Exactly what I wanted!

Rants/Raves? I hate the progesterone suppositories! Last night I popped it in, sneezed and it came flying out. Really hoping I can stop them in the near future.

GTKY: If money were no issue and you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? Either somewhere tropical on the beach or in Italy. I guess if money were no issue, I'd have a summer home in Italy and a winter home in the islands lol

How far along are you?
10 weeks 3 days

How big are babies?
A pair of strawberries

Appts this week?
None until Nov 7.

Rants/Raves?
I've not been feeling very pregnant lately. I guess I thought that with twins there would be some big difference. No bump yet either. I can't wait until my next appointment. I'm hoping after hearing their heartbeats one more time I will be able to be a little bit more positive and upbeat about the pregnancy. My viability u/s at 6 weeks feels like it was so long ago and it was so early. I've just been kind of bummed out the last couple of weeks.

GTKY: If money were no issue and you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? New York City!

**12w4d. Come on, second tri! **The size of plums **next apt is 11/2 (next Wed.). **rants/raves: my acne has been so bad this time around. Yuck. **gtky: I'd go back and forth between Italy and Savannah, GA.

@mia1116 you will love B/G twins!

mia1116 · October 2016

@chickyclg I'm so excited! I totally wanted one of each

Luckyu317 · October 2016

@mia1116, did they say how much longer you have to take the progesterone? I got to stop mine at 10 weeks.

mia1116 · October 2016

@Luckyu317 I didn't get to talk to the dr because she got called into a delivery. I put a call in today to go over the report from the scan and ask her, but they still haven't called back.

How far along are you? 13w3d (Unless these two make it to 40 wks they will be April babies)

How big are babies?
Lemons

Appts this week?
No - just going in for MaterniT21 blood draw. I'm so incredibly nervous. I know that something isn't right since they are measuring 1 week apart.

Rants/Raves?
Nada this week. Too tired

GTKY: If money were no issue and you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?
I'm such a damn homebody that every time I think about leaving where we live now (close to our immediate families) I think "Nah, not worth it." Vacation homes though? Bali, Banff / Canadian Rockies, or Spain.

I hope all is well @mdlorenz mine measured pretty far apart for a while so I know what your going through, it was always scary. Thankfully my son caught up at 32 weeks but then my daughter started having IUGR. I think twin pregnancies are a complete mind game since it seems like something is always wrong. Have you thought of buying a home Doppler? I had one and it was the best thing for the peace of mind I could have ever purchased.

@mia1116 how did they tell you so early? I did a blood test last time that told gender and checked for a bunch of conditions but they said that they can't do it this time because they wouldn't be able to tell who the blood was from. I have to wait until the anatomy scan in 5 weeks...

mia1116 · October 2016

@Jkp7749 the tech told me I couldn't hold her to it, but their bits looked very different. B has a very definite boy nub. A's is hollow and she sees lines that should form the vagina. Even to my untrained eyes they looked different. I got the Harmony test for genetic screening, but I'm pretty sure that will just tell me I'm having at least one boy. But it should tell me if either baby has any problems since they're fraternal.

mdlorenz · October 2016

@chickyclg - I'm hanging onto the slim chance that the difference is no big deal, but I have this sense that it's not the case. I'm not so worried right now but I know that certain aneuploidies are not compatible with a long life. It's going to be a long 7-14 days for the result of the NIPT. And I wasn't originally planning to do *any* aneuploidy screening so now it's a mind shift.
Twins are totally a mind game. Thanks for the positive words!
