Weezie - Congratulations! It sounds like it was a rough road for you this week...I can certainly relate to that but I am glad to hear you and Gavin are doing well. :D Rio - I was at the hospital all day with Abby but by now you are a Mommy so congrats to you too! I can't wait to hear the details. Ho...

Congratulations Tammy! Hoping your NICU stay is short, which it sounds like it will be. :D Post pictures when you can! Wow, everyone is getting SO close. I still can't believe Abby will be 5 weeks old this weekend, and yet she is still the smallest one in her NICU room. She's doing great though. Up ...

Abigail graduated to the healthy baby room! They are no longer considering her a "sick" baby. She started her feeds 8 days ago and is already more than half way to full feeds. Once she gets there they will start to bottle feed. She weighs 2 pounds 13 ounces now! She's doing just great and they think...

Hi girls! Thanks to all for checking in on me and my blog. For the family's sake, it is much easier to post updates there. I'm hanging in there though. I am getting so antsy to start feeling better. I want to start getting Abby's room ready and finally do some shopping at Babies R Us, but I just nee...

Hi everyone! Well, I am an August mommy too. It's a very long story but I have posted it on my blog so I won't re-type it here. Even the blog doesn' tell you the half of it. Long story short though, 2 days after I was admitted my water broke so they just said, labor or an infection, whichever happen...

Magic Magin - thanks for checking in on me. It's so good to hear from you. Seems like it's been a lifetime since last November. I am glad to hear you are taking a break and getting mentally prepared. That's half the battle I think! Well ladies...this may be my last post for a few weeks. :cry: I am b...

Oh Sugabeanzs, congratulations! I just logged on quickly before I head to the doctor and I was stunned to see your news! I am SO glad that the girls are doing so well. Good for you for carrying them as long as you did. I hope the time in the NICU flies by! I can't wait to see the updates. Congrats a...

Holy cow Rio! 50 people? That's awesome. You must have gotten tons of stuff. :D Sorry the GD is giving you such a hard time. I feel for you with those insulin injections. Cincy - how was the work shower? Sorry to hear about the high blood pressure. I hope the procardia is keeping it under control. L...

Just an update...I am still at home. Got some rest last night thanks to the sleeping pills. I am only taking half a dose, and only as needed until we can get through the rough patch, but it was nice to feel a little better this morning. Abigail looked good at the u/s today. And doc is so nice...he t...

Thank you all for your support and prayers. This community of mommies is a lifesaver. I don't know what I would do without you all. I am so glad everyone is doing so well with their pregnancies. And Sug - congratulations on making it to 30 weeks! You inspire me because now I am struggling with prete...

Hi girls. This is tough for me to write but I wanted to let you all know...the TTTS has finally gotten the best of us and we lost one of our baby girls. She died last Wednesday at 24 weeks 2 days gestation. Her little heart just stopped beating. It all started last Tuesday when we went for our routi...

Hi girls! Rio - so sorry about the GD. I hope the diet is not too much of a pain to deal with and I really hope you can stay off insulin. No more shots! Sug - congrats on a healthy 28 week report! Sounds like the girls are thriving. Jomae - you be careful with the dizzy spells. I know I was having t...

There's 3 different types of twins, and with IVF it's likely they are fraternal. I transferred 4 embies and much to my surprise 1 split! You can make a good guess by looking at the ultrasound. If they are in 2 separate chorionic sacs, they are fraternal. If it appears they are in one sac, they may b...

Congratulations on the twin pregnancy! My first u/s was at 6w6d and our heartbeats were 125 and 130. I am now 22 weeks pregnant with my identical twin girls. Are yours identical or fraternal?

I was told by my RE to take it until 28 weeks but my peri took me off of it at about 14 weeks because of a subchorionic hematoma.
