Re: Twin Moms - Dec 2022!
@mama_katydid I feel much worse this pregnancy. Nausea and vomiting and so tired I can barely function. I had a suspicion because when I tested the test turned positive before I could even get the cap back on.

I have moments of complete excitement where I can’t picture this experience without the twins and moments of complete anxiety. Of miscarriage, of how is my body is going to handle this, how can I possibly give these two little beings everything they need.
This weekend I tested positive for COVID so that doesn’t help the anxiety so any tips are appreciated.
