Archana, thats a great looking list.
3 Ultrasounds today, how exciting!!!
Let us know how the little ones are doing
Rdoc

Thanks for the list.

I am planning to make a diary kind of thing for each one of us...lets see !! Anyone is most welcome to do it or to add their views. I don't think it will be possible without your support.
This is so exciting journey that each and every moment must be penned down. Few years down the lane, when our children will grow up, they will feel great to have so many cyber friends and to read about their birth story.

Sonu911, thanks for updating the list, it looks really great.

I am getting so nervous. It's even worse than the 2WW, I can't wait to see the little heart beat next week.

I look forward to sharing the next 8 months with everyone.

Sonu911, I love your trigger about Paris Hilton; it's too funny. It made me smile, thanks. Congrats on the US, it looks like we are pretty close with our due date. Yeah, ...

Congrats to Tamara: wow three, I am so excited for you.

Jennie, how exciting to see the heartbeat. I can't wait for mine next week.

Hello to everybody else.

Pumma...Thanks dear!!! Well, any living organism will have more brain cells than Paris Hilton And yes, we are running neck to neck.

On a quick note ~ Is it ok to have green tea in pregnancy?
And I think some kind of sickness has kicked in...I am feeling very uneasy, my heart is pounding like it will pump month's blood in one hour...uhhh!!! Not complaining....guess its just a reassurance that my little angel is working fine.

Sonu, my heart seems to be beating faster as well. I did have that with my last pregnancy which unfortunately resulted in a miscarriage also. Last year they were saying it's because I am nervous but I did not really believe that. Now it seems to have started again. So perhaps we are just pumping blood for two, which we are. Don't worry, I think it's fine and just remember about what's going on in there. I am not sure about drinking green tea. When I was pregnant in 2003 with our little boy I had no caffeine whatsoever, however, I did have decaf coffee, which I guess has some in it. I would skip the green tea for now.

Hi everyone. Belly is growing with the three babies already. I give it two weeks before I can't wear my regular pants. My IVF doctor scheduled a meeting with us to discuss are pregnancy on 5/7 (routine) and then I have my next U/S on 5/12 to see if everything is progressing.

In the paperwork that I received from my IVF clinic it says to stay away from green tea (which was my favorite thing to drink) because it has a chemical in it that blocks how that body uses folate which is so important during pregnancy.

Hope this helps.

Hi everyone,
had a very scary thing happen today. Went to work as usual, on my third trip to the restroom saw a tinge of pink which scared the hell out of me. It then turned into a brownish discharge. I called the RE's office, they brought me in for an ultrasound. By then the discharge stopped. We saw 2 sacs, its Twins!!!! I am excited but very nervous. my RE said a little bit of bleeding is quite common and can happen with the progesterone. Anyway the babies are 5 weeks 3 days old, my next ultrasound will happen on 4/30/08.
Hope all december moms are doing well.

Hi Moms!

So sorry for not posting. We had the U/S on Friday, then left town for vacation.

I will catch up with personals next week when we're back, but wanted to pop in and give you an update.

It's triplets too! On the way to our U/S I told my DH that I wondered if we had one in hiding and sure enough...one little bean was off by his/herself.
We are still cautious as only 1 had a heartbeat (we could see and hear). The other 2 were measuring one week behind and no heartbeat / small sacks.

The RE isn't sure if the 2 little ones are going to make it. It's in God's hands...I'm praying so hard that all 3 little ones will be okay.

I go in for my 8w U/S next Wed, then I'll be released to by OB.

Has anyone else gained weight? I'm up 7 (holy cow) pounds! Goodness...I already look like I'm 4 months. It's hard for me to pass a refrigerator or bathroom....

Hope all is well with each of you and can't wait to catch up next week.

Hey all

Our thread was getting lost at the bottom somewhere, just thought of bringing it up.

Last night while inserting my progesterone vaginally, i discovered slight brown discharge. (sorrry tmi!!!) I wiped it off. I haevn't had any after that and I am feeling absolutely normal. But just to be on safe side I have restricted my movements and resting a lot. Trying to keep my PMA and believing that 'THIS WILL WORK'.

On the other note, as I have read on this site and elsewhere, this is a normal phenomena, and most of the pregnant ladies have it. But no preg lady would want to see that colour...

Pl. God...make this happen!!!

Hugs and wishes for all!!!!
