How many ultrasounds - carrying twins?

I have a question for those who have been pg before with twins. How many ultrasounds did you have? Did you get one at each OB visit?

DH and I finally told immediate family today that we are pg. When I spoke with my SIS she told me that you only get 2 u/s. She said they did one to confirm the pg ...

Hi. I don't have the same experience but wanted to let you know not to give up. Your post got to me because you said your egg quality was not great. I was under the impression that they cannot measure the quality of the eggs -just the ovarian reserve and quality of embryos. After my second IVF ...

My 1st beta on 2/4 at 15dpt was 2864. My 2nd beta today 2/11 at 22dpt is 27800. I know I should be happy about strong numbers but ...

My RE says anything over 50 is good on the first beta so I think you are ok. I'm still new to the whole beta thing but I did find this:

I'm sorry to hear it didn't work for you this time. I felt the same after my 2nd failed IVF. The only thing that changed my mind was a question on one of the adoption sites I ran across when we started to look into adoption. The question was - "Have you grieved/mourned the loss of your own children ...
