Hello everyone! I'm so sorry that I've gotten so bad about updating in here but Dawson is a pretty high maintenance little guy & I don't have a lot of downtime.

CD, huge congrats! I love seeing the lines get darker on the tests but nothing beats a digi. Can't wait to hear your beta!

MrsC, I'm sorry your DH had to leave again - I hope it's calmer this time. Your family photos are gorgeous!! You all look so happy & loving. How does DH react when people say the girls look just like him?

Michelle, I'm sorry you & Tyler have been sick. I'm sure that makes it hard to have the energy to take care of Dylan. That stinks that you have to go back to work - I am dreading that.

Mo, great pic! I'm glad to hear your scan went so well. I can't believe you're halfway already!

Stinas, beautiful pics of your twinkies! That would be fun to have one of each. Any ideas for names yet?

Laurie & Angie, how are you guys doing? Are you feeling your little guys moving around a lot?

Jenn, I loved the video you posted the other day of lo blowing raspberries! So cute. Is your DH stepping up more at all? Thanks for the moral support - I wish you guys could wait with me too!

Lindsay, I can't believe Reiken is 6 months old already! He's so cute & looks super smart in your fb pics. You might have your hands full when he gets older!

Getting, I second the request for an updated pic of Fia! How's she doing?

Hello to everyone else!

AFM, those of you who are on fb know about Dawson's scare last week. It was horrible - Thursday morning after his first feeding he started having these weird episodes where he would throw his arms out wide, get really stiff & his eyes would roll back in his head. It would last a few seconds & then he would come out of it & start crying. I took him to the pediatrician & it happened probably 20 times in less than an hour. His dr thought it was seizures so he sent me to the hospital right away. They did an EEG, which required gluing 27 electrodes into his head & then monitoring him for about 18 hours. They also did an MRI which he had to be sedated for, so he couldn't eat anything for 4 hours before. The MRI lab was running late & then the test took quite awhile, so the poor little guy didn't have anything to eat from 9am til 5pm. But the tests came back normal - he didn't have any more episodes once we got to the hospital of course - so they're not sure what was going on. The only thing they can figure is maybe he had a bad case of reflux & his nervous system just went haywire. He's started taking reflux meds & all I can do is just wait to see if it happens again. It was such a terrifying ordeal but my little guy handled it like a champ, which makes me hope things will go well with his lip surgery November 14th. I swear this baby is waaaay more stressful than I ever imagined!

Hope everyone is doing well!

Az...so sorry to hear about Dawson..but Im glad that he hasn't had any more episodes....I will continue to keep him in my prayers... love looking at his pictures on FB! You are doing an awesome job as a mom

 

[azlissie]

Stinas, I hope you don't have to put up with too many people telling you what to name your babies! It's not their place at all, and definitely after the ordeal you've been through I think you should name them whatever you want!

Kathy, thanks for keeping Dawson in your prayers. Silly little baby needs all the good thoughts he can get! I'm sorry to hear you're still fighting infection - this has dragged on for a really long time. Hope your biopsy comes back clean & you can get started!

Bubu, meant to mention before, I think it's great that your DH is doing the herbs & stuff with you - I'm sure it helps to have him for support. Enjoy your trip!

Getting, we're looking at at least one night in the hospital after Dawson's lip surgery - they won't release him until he's feeding well with his special bottle. Hopefully he'll do well & can go home quickly.

I think we should all post pics of the LO's in their Halloween costumes! Let's see them, ladies!

Congratulations CD

AFM, I havent been coming on here much. There isn't much to update except the fact that I am still very nervous about my pregnancy. It has been helping, to stay away from BnB stuff. I have been following updates on my phone though. I cant believe Im 10 weeks!! OMG

I get my ultrasound only on 10th Nov. So I'll be nervous until we find see our baby and find out he is growing fine. Until then im trying to keep my thoughts elsewhere. Morning sickness was never as bad as I expected. I never threw up so far and I am proud of that

Az - Baby Dawson, he is a tough little man and you are his proud and strong mom. Stay strong for you and your baby.

Honey: Sorry you are still experiencing OHSS. That sucks that you are experiencing it this far into your pregnancy. Hopefully things improve soon and you have a great 2nd and 3rd trimester.

Stinas: We did a shoe pic too, lined up our sandals with two sets of baby sandals and wrote a message above announcing their arrival. Some people didn't get the two sets of shoes and the "they" reference meaning twins, lol! It wasn't until we announced that we were have a boy and a girl that everyone understood. Good luck with your announcement.

Azlissie: My heart was breaking when I saw your FB posts. Poor little Dawson. I guess it is good that they didn't find anything wrong with him but how scary that must be not know what caused that. I've had weird episodes with my babies as well. Scary! DH is unfortunately the same, I've given up on him. My parents are a huge help so I have the support I need without him. It's really sad for the kids but I am tired of fighting with him and concerned that they will start to see us fighting so I am done!

Happy Halloween Everyone!!! I'll try and post pics later of the babes in their costumes. We were supposed to go to a POMBA (Parents of Multiple Birth Association) function last Sunday for Halloween but it was outdoors and it was freezing cold and pouring rain out so we stayed home. So we haven't been able to use the costumes we got. We also stupidly carved our pumpkin too early and it's rotten! So on a mission to get another pumpkin and carve it in time for tonight. Unfortunately I'm sick and have no desire to load up two babies and run to the store. I'm still determined to make their first Halloween memorable.

 

[MoBaby]

Jenn you can do like I did and just paint the pumpkin lol.. That's is me being lazy!feel better.
Honey I'm glad the pg is going well and ms isn't too bad.

Az I saw poor little Dawson hopefully it was a fluke thing and he is all better

 

[azlissie]

Here's my awesome Dawson!! I've loved Superman since I was a kid so there was really no question what he would be for his first Halloween

 

[Stinas]

AZ - I only care what DH thinks....but even then, I get the upper hand and I dont care how selfish that sounds. hehe

Jenn - People are just stupid...like DUH...two pairs of shoes....two people lol Im sure ill get a bunch of genius people thinking the same way. Ill post a pic after I do it on sunday before work.

Honey - YAY for 10w!!! Sorry about the MS! I had it too.....it does go away somewhat. I got mine super early, but they say its norm with 2 to get it early? i dk...one or two, still sucks. The nausea still sticks around. Almost puked at BJ's today lol...you get used to it.

Yes ladies with babies....SHOW US YOUR COSTUMES!!!

 

[GettingBroody]

We put Fia and her sign on our parents doorsteps, then rang the doorbell and hid. Their reactions were great fun!

Az - love Dawsons superman costume! Very cute!

Jenn - apparently if you spray pumpkins with diluted bleach they don't rot as quickly... Looking forward to seeing the twins in their outfits!

 

[MoBaby]

Omg fia is to stinking cute!!

 

[Jenn76]

I agree Fia is adorable!!!! Az I think we got the exact same costume, lol! I wanted a monkey because Chris is very much a monkey but DH was against it so Superman was my second choice. Adorable!!

Here are my little ones in their costumes.

 

[MoBaby]

Cute!!

 

[Stinas]

The costumes are super cute!!! Love them all!!
