Second Ultrasound

Baby A

Baby B its crunched in a ball while it was sleeping

I was 12 weeks and my apt was going to be on Feb 25th. That Sunday I started getting some pain on my left side and it was hurting whenever I would be standing. When I would sit down it would go away. Since I have never been pregnant I had know idea what was normal or not. I thought well if its still doing it by tomorrow I would call the Dr. The next day I woke up got out of bed same thing. I was having a hard time standing with out it hurting. I was thinking it was my ovary or something since it was in one spot kind of where its located. I got to work and started to worry about it. James wanted me to call them right away and get scheduled in that day instead of waiting tell Thursday. He worries a lot! I do too but it seems like every little thing was freaking him out. I called the hospital and talked to a nurse. She said that because the pain goes away when I sit then its perfectly normal it was round ligament pain. Since everything is changing in there my stomach and intestines everything was being pushed up because the babies are growing. I new I would get pain from stretching and things like that but I have not had any pain yet so I don't know whats ok. I asked to still come in that day since I had an appointment that same week anyway. She changed it and I went in. I felt bad because James wanted to come but he could not get off work at such short notice. I talked to the Dr about it and he said I was fine I got my ultrasound and looked at the babies. Baby A is on my left side and baby B is on my right there side by side right now. Baby A was awake and moving around like crazy bouncing and kicking it was so cute! Baby B was sound asleep. I was surprised baby A was not disturbing baby B haha. It was very cute! Both there heart beats were grate and they looked good sizes. The Dr had a hard time getting baby A's heart beat at first since it was moving all over the place! When we were done I called and gave James the good news everything was fine. We could breath again!

I love the twins not the symptoms

My growing belly 11 1\2 weeks

After our apt. I was alot more calm I was happy they were looking good and I was even more happy there was two. I was not concerned about the pregnancy being sick getting fat things like that the only thing I worried about was money. Im sure every parent worried about that but mine would be doubled! The best we can do is save as much as we can before they come try and get as many diapers wipes baby stuff we can. And hopefully the baby shower we can get things we need too. But that aside I was happy to be having my family and becoming a mommy! I was starting to throw up every morning now like clock work and sometimes at night. I always had to keep something in my stomach other wise I would be so sick. I was starting to hate foods too. I was having a hard time eating mostly at night. I was just eating cereal every night that's all I could eat. Everything sounded gross! I always thought that you would have all these weird cravings and want to eat anything. wow was I wrong! I know every pregnancy is different and mine was the one that would not let me eat! week 9 10 and 11 were all the same sick in the morning still not able to eat at night. I was trying to get all the nutrients I needed during breakfast and lunch and then I could just eat my cereal at night. At the end of week 11 I started to ease up on the throwing up I was not throwing up every morning only a few times a week. It was mostly just dry heaving. I was still not able to eat at night. I was also starting to get a little belly. I could not wait tell I got big and was able to show I was pregnant!

Its twins!

I was having a very good pregnancy I felt great and was not sick. I was four weeks along and had no symptoms yet. week 5-6 was great too... The very end of week 6 I started to get sick throwing up and not feeling good at all. week 7 was the same. We had our first Dr apt Jan 28th just a couple days after I was week 8. Through out the whole time James and I would talk about twins we thought it would be fun to have twins. I never thought it would happen to us but I liked the idea. James did too. He would keep saying I hope its twins I want twins. The night before our apt. He said I bet were having twins I predict that right now I no for a fact we are! I thought it was cute but weird that he would be 100% sure it was. That day at the apt. we did all the normal things we talked to the Dr about any concerns we had the Dr filled us in on anything we needed to know. We got on to the ultrasound. James had told the nurse right before that he was hopping for twins. The Dr started looking around and I saw the baby it was so tiny like a peanut he kept moving back and forth I thought it was the same baby he was just looking at it in a different angle. I had never had an ultrasound before so I had no idea what to look for. James was standing on the other side of me looking at it and the nurse was standing by him all the sudden I hear him say it is! I didn't know what he was talking about finally the Dr said. Well there is 2 of them in there. I looked back at James and said you were right! We were not even shocked we were just excited! After that we called ever one. My mom was so excited there was no twins in my family well my siblings I have 6 of them. James mom was so shocked she didn't believe us she had to talk to the nurse! I was such a great day not only were they healthy and great heart beats there was TWO! ( The picture at the top is with both of them. So tiny!)

When we found out

James and I have been trying for a family since we got married on September 29th 2007. It did not go as well as we wanted it to. We kept everything natural no help for 2 years. We finally decided to get some help since we were not getting pregnant. I went to the Dr and was put on clomid. Its a sort of fertility pill to help with getting pregnant. I took it for 3 months and nothing. We started giving up hope thinking it would never happen for us. The following 2 months I got off of it and thought whats the point? I always felt like something was missing and I new it was a baby. I decided to try one more time with the clomid but this time I doubled the dose. After we tried I thought ok if this doesn't work will have to go get on something different and try again. The thought of having to go through so many different options in fertility made me want to cry. A few weeks passed and I started to notice some differences. I was having to go to the bathroom pretty much every 5 min! I was never like that. I started eating bigger portions and I was starting to have cramps all day every day. I new something was off but I thought maybe since I wanted to be pregnant so bad that I was making myself do all these things. Jan 1st I decided I should take a test it had been a couple weeks after I missed my period but that was normal for me I was never regular. I went and got a test just from the dollar store I heard they worked fine but if it said yes I would want to take another one just in case. I wanted to take it in the morning. I had to work the next day so I took it with me and did it there. As soon as I took it I sat there just hoping it would have two lines. I looked down and there it was 2 lines! I just sat there looking at it for a minute I could not believe it was there. I hurry and called James to tell him he was going to be a dad. He of cores didn't believe me it took him a second to let it sink in. He was so excited! I wanted to get another test just to be on the safe side so on my way home I picked one up. When I took the second test with James we sat there for a minute waiting. There was 2 lines again. We couldn't help but get teary and hug each other. It was the most important day of our life's too know we would be having a baby finally!
