Our twin girls arrived on Jan 10th at 36.3 weeks via c-section. They were both healthy and came home with us on the 4th day post op.

Its taking a team of four to care for them. We are very excited (and tired) :D

For all of you who are trying/in 2ww/waiting for scans/various milestones, I'd say ...

It all depends on mom's health. In our experience, my wife's work life ensures a good and healthy routine. She eats more healthy on weekdays than on weekends.

Thank God for the flexibility, rrom week 25 onwards, my wife has modified her schedule by coming home by 3 PM, relax/nap and then work for 2 ...

We bought the only available belt at the local store. Her back does feel better with the belt. She uses it more when she's up on her feet. While sitting down, it gets uncomfortable and she takes it off.

Folks,

Any recommendations on the pregnancy support belt?

We are 55% of the way through and my wife's back really really hurts. Please do share recommendations about pregnancy support belts if any specific type or brand worked well for you.

Congratulations. Hope the babies are doing fine.

Recommend reading chapter 12 & 13 of this book: Everything Conceivable by Liza Mundy.

We are also in the same boat - having twins and waiting for the movement.

Until this morning, my wife had not felt a thing and we were starting to get worried. Out of the blue, while waiting to get a table at this breakfast place, she felt "something" and then felt it again couple of times since ...

Jenden, Thank you!!

We are going to call and confirm with our doctor and Monday.

I went and hunted the cereal aisles and found several brands which do not have this Vitamin A. Following are the brand details.

Brand: Peace Cereal

Are there any cereal brands that have little or no Vitamin A?

Hiya folks,

Our doctor ordered some immune system tests after the 2nd m/c (the most recent BFP until wk4).

My wife tested moderately positive for two of them:

APA-Phosphatidylethanolamine= 30.2 (normal: < 16)
APA-Phosphatidylserine = 34.6 (normal: < 16)

a) Has anybody experienced such issues ...

I'm so concerned now as this thing is not stopping for my wife and it has been about 2 months since the IVF.

Hi Ogr1,

Do you recall how long did it continue for you?
What was the diagnosis?

Howdy folks once again ...

Our 1st IVF attempt ended with a chemical pregnancy. HCG levels reached 12 on day 14 and the subsequent AF brought an end to the attempt.

Ever since that day, my wife has had an AF flow every 10th day. Our RE did a sonogram and said that the lining was too thick and ...

Jackie and Denise,

Thank you for your prayers. Your words did give me strength.
