yeaa! Welcome to the thread DrJen & SDtrying!

jenny- congratulations on seeing heartbeat! Isn't it amazing.....I was holding back the tears when I saw my little bean. We have the pictures on the fridge. Its so crazy that I have pictures from when it was 8 cell, and when they implanted them, and now its a little tadpole! I could kinda make out the head, and I could see where the heart was fluttering. I am in complete awe!

stephanie- I am not thrilled about the morning sickness either...it hit me really hard this morning on the road, and I had to pull over on the highway!! My RE doesn't prescribe anything for the nausea...so its crackers and ginger ale for me! I think I have actually lost weight! I am 7w3d today, I have a little pooch, but I'm not showing or anything.

sameera- double trouble girl!! have you started to show yet?

have a great weekend!!
God Bless our little babies!!

I am due January 3rd, but with twins only one percent make it to 38 weeks, so looks like December babies for us.

I'm sorry your M/S is bad. I am just naseous, I don't throw up, so I guess I am pretty lucky there.

Hiya to the new people, congrats on seeing the HB, that is my favorite day ever. :)

I think this is a really difficult stage to try to find clothes for. I can't fit my regular clothes and obviously too small for maternity clothes. I like the bella band but I want to look cute. I just feel very dumpy.....but its all for a good reason, I know. I went clothes shopping yesterday and came home with nothing new. I'm so not complaining, though, I'm loving every minute of it (excpet the nausea).

Nicaliw- I went shopping and came home with very little.I too want to be cute, but even though i've been sick and throwing up and i'm still gaining weight. (Too much i think).

Sameera- Don't worry! My twins measured 7mm? and 11mm? for the first sac measurement. I was so worried about the little one, and a few weeks later, the little one ended up catching up! I hear that most of the time one starts off considerably smaller than the other.

Stephanienj - Thanks for your encouraging words~ I have actually quit worrying about it and enjoying my pregnancy.

I can only hope and pray everything works out for my babies and that they are healthy :)

Few days ago I was driving myself nuts and reading/researching about this like crazy then all I was doing was stressing myself out, which obviously isn't good for them! so now I quit!!

Oh quick question for you though - when did you start gaining and showing? your belly getting big??

I am 5'2 -very petite..I was before I got pregnant 94lbs LOL so I am kinda trying to figure out how soon will I be showing? or when my belly will be sticking out?

It already is sticking out just a little bit but not like a whole lot.

Nikki - I went to target the other day and just bought some tank tops and stretchy capris pants and they are perfect for now. I am sure I will be going and shopping for some clothes later when I get bigger and bigger...

sameera- I don't think I have been 94 pounds since I was in Jr high!! I'm sure when you do start showing it will be all baby. As for me, I hit 5-6 (depending on shoes) and I weigh in at a good 130. I was thinner, but I gained about 5+ lbs during stimms. I don't know for sure what I am now...I have really bad nausea daily so I don't eat that much now. I haven't noticed my belly showing...I will only be 8 weeks tomorrow. DH thinks I am crazy, but sometimes I rub my belly and talk to the baby. I know its early for this, but I can't help myself. And sometime when I come home from work DH will put his hand on my belly and say hello.
I just thank God for giving me my little miracle!

steph/nic- I agree that it is quite hard to find cute clothes that fit. I actually haven't bought anything yet. I live in scrubs M-F, and I have a few 'fat' capris that I can still fit into. I live in south Texas, and its hot down here, but I can't bring myself to wear shorts. I am about as pale as a piece of paper, and since tanning is out of the question, I feel I might be punishing society if I wear shorts.

My next u/s isn't until june 11...I have been having some tinted discharge (sorry TMI)...not blood, more like a faint pink. RE said its normal to have some spotting due to all the new blood vessels growing in the uterus, I called just to make sure. I'm still doing 1cc of PIO every night. :cry:

God bless you all!!

Hi Everyone!

I know it's been over a week since I have had a chance to respond! I'm glad to hear everyone is doing good.

Stephanienj - My due date was January 2nd but at my last ultrasound on the 21st it changed to January 1st. I am going for another ultrasound this Friday so i guess I willl wait and see if it changes again.

So the M/S is still here and the exhaustion hasn't let up any. I am so exhausted all the time I barely have enough energy to stay up my 8 hours of work! I am almost 10 weeks so I hope things will let up really soon. I feel awful all the time. I know it is worth it in the end but I would just like to feel good for 1 day!

Promise to keep in touch more! :lol:

Jenn

chelly - I hope your MS gets better it sucks that you have to be so nauseated.. my nausea went away i still get it every now and then but for the most part i am doing great.. except for the exhaustion and what not..

ugh, that is making me so lazy i cannot even begin to tell..

Sweet - glad to hear you will be 10wks isn't that cool how time flies.. I hope your nausea gets better too and hope you start to feel better..

As for me lately i have no feelings to do anything sexual with my RE - is this normal?? i mean really when I was on progesterone suppositries i was going insane with wanting to do stuff..

ever since i quit taking those I don't feel anything - plus with carrying twins i am not sure if it's good idea to do it now.

It's just crazy what hormones does to you!!!

Well hope everyone else is having a great day!

Hi All,

Nothing new from me. I get to see the babies again next Monday. All I do is wait. hehe My M/S is pretty much gone. I am still taking the progesterone. Sameera when did you get off that? I am looking forward to that day. :)

Hope you all had a good weekend. I still need to finish clearing out the nursery. Hopefully this weekend we will get it done.

Hey y'all! I see some familiar names here. Thought I would join in! My dudt is Jan. 28th so far. I have my first US on June 11th. My beta's were pretty high so they sd they will be counting sacs, to be prepared for anything. How exciting, but I only want healthy little munchkins! Lately I have been a little concerned because my breasts are less tender and I feel a little less tired, and no more cramping. When I had a M/C my symptoms diminished so quickly. I am 5wk5d right now and that is about how far along I was last time. No bleeding though so that is good! Which I had last time. I was reading early posts and thought I would join because it is good to hear others talk about how much of a roller coaster ride this is. It's one milestone after another. We can't wait for our beta, then can't wait for the call, then can't wait for the next, then can't wait for the U/S. Gall! This is agonizing! The RE said not to worry about the symptoms that I am just getting used to everything, but she said to beware cuz a whole new batch of symptoms are on it's way. (x-fingers)! As much as I "on't want" the symptoms or i complain about them ........I really really do want them. Now that is weird.....Anyways! excited to have some buddies on here to walk through this journey with.
