twin mamas to be when are you due and what/who are you having?

[nesSAH]

robinson380, welcome!!

How is everyone doing today?
Any more scan news?

I can't believe I still don't have an OB

 

[nesSAH]

MamaMac! wow! I am so loving your nursery. Very very beautiful and lovely names too!

 

[Seoul]

Nessah I still don't have an ob either tomorrow is my last appointment with my fertility doctor I have no choice but to find one now.

 

[fides]

congrats on team and bizzibii and mamamac!

 

[fides]

I can't believe I still don't have an OB

hope you find a good one soon that you like. the search is frustrating!!

 

[robinson380]

Had an ultrasound today. Both babies are 1lb1oz. My doc says since they are mono/di she won't let me go past 37 weeks! They will be here before I know it! Scared, excited, happy.....I also have a 13 month old . I measure the size of a 29 week singleton pregnancy and am currently 22w2d! Gonna be getting big fast!

 

[Seoul]

robinson- that is coming up soon how exciting. Best of luck!

Ive had two ultrasounds in the last two days to try to determine what these little ones are but no luck they just don't want to uncross their legs. So stubborn the doc today got a bit better look than the one yesterday and she says she would guess a boy and a girl but to not start buying anything just yet. So frustrating I am traveling to the states next week and want to get some of my shopping done.

 

[nesSAH]

Thanks Ladies!
Called my NP and unfortunately she is out of town. I had my last appointment with her a few weeks ago.

Seoul: I hope you find a great OB soon too!!
I'm so jealous you've had two scans already Those babies are so funny... my other two also gave the techs a hard time during u/s. Thankfully I was team yellow so I just found it funny- lol

robinson380: Yay! for scan and healthy babies. You are definitely getting there
I can relate to you; I have a 15 month and a 4 yr old and DH works like crazy

 

[MamaMac123]

How's the OB hunt going ladies??

Seoul anymore luck on genders???

Hope everyone is doing well

I'm feeling hot and fat and hungry and tired and cranky haha
I'm so ready to be done with my job but if all keeps going smoothly then I've still got 2 more months to go :sigh:

Sleeping is getting more and more rough. Heartburn is getting extreme. Woke up in the middle of the night vomiting because of it the other night. Grossness! Also my carpal tunnel is getting really bad and driving me nuts and the good old leg cramps too. This pregnancy stuff certain isn't all hearts and flowers!

The good is that everything is still going nice and routine gotta be happy about that! The babies are measuring ahead which is good. I feel them almost everyday but still very faintly. Docs said not to worry about how much or often I feel them until after 28 weeks so I'm trying not to stress over it. Just wish I felt them more. It's hard to tell if I feel both of them or just one. Wish I could distinguish between them and know for sure.

 

[Seoul]

Mamamac- poor you I am not looking forward to those things but feel like I am quickly getting to the point. I hope your body adjusts a bit to all the changes and gives you a bit of relief.

My little ones finally showed at todays ultrasound. We are having a little boy and little girl we are over the moon. They both seem to be doing really well and aside from having the placenta too close to the cervix everything looks good but docs are hopeful it will move out the way as the baby grows. Baby A our little girl is also breech so really hoping she turns at some point so that I have some sort of shot at a vaginal delivery.

Hope everyone is doing well.

 

[messica]

Yay Seoul!!!!!!!!!! Lanet was asking up above, I won't share your news but she wants to know!


I will dip a toe in here now if that's ok with everyone

We are due January 2nd and just had 12 week ultrasound last Friday. I was shocked when doc was looking over B trans vaginally said "well that would be an awfully weird place for an antennae, pretty sure baby B has a PEENIE!" I almost died laughing, she had to stop because I was making everything go all jiggly on the screen lol. She said we are at a weird juncture where it's tough to see both with a TV, but even tougher to pin point anything with a belly ultrasound. She tried to see A with TV but at this point baby was nearly hidden by B no matter what angle she tried. Got a crown to rump measurement and hb abdominally and that was about it.

We have an in depth ultrasound in radiology scheduled for July 3rd (as opposed to just docs little machine she can wheel into her office). She called it a "growth scan" so insurance will cover it and said the techs will go over every inch. I am hoping both cooperate so we have a really good idea of both then.

Doesn't matter boys or girls, we're just hoping for healthy and to know either way so we can get to some more gender specific fun shopping

 

[Seoul]

Yay messica so exciting can't wait to here about your next scan

 

[princess_1991]

We have another growth scan on friday, looking forward to seeing our Twincesses again!

Really suffering with this heat though! Swollen feet, low iron count and heartburn are really making this trimester unpleasant, along with the huge uncomfortable belly!

Just over 5 weeks to go and counting!!

 

[MamaMac123]

Congrats Messica! Can't wait to hear about your next scan!

Princess, I hear you on the heat! It's miserable!!!!!

Been having a lot of abdominal stretching cramps the last 24 hours. Not major or anything that worries me, just uncomfortable. I still feel my little squirmies in there moving around a few times a day

Sleep is gettin awful. Have major heartburn, getting up to pee constantly of course, carpal tunnel and leg cramps aching and very restless with weirdo dreams thy leave me feeling not rested at all. Blah

Other than sleep and heat though all is well haha

 

[fides]

Seoul - congrats on boy & girl!!

mamamac, i hear you on getting up to pee all the time - i'll be just about ready to drift off then either one of the boys needs me AGAIN or i have to pee AGAIN - i'm just about ready for a catheter. oh, well - it's good training for the lack of sleep we'll be getting when the babies are here, right?


things are okay here - the SPD is getting really, really rough, and the back pain is meaning i pretty much have to swim daily or i'm in a lot of trouble. carpal tunnel's annoying, and some other annoyances that are frustrating more that debilitating, if that makes sense - just things to put up with.

 

[princess_1991]

so scan today went really well!
Both babies heads were measuring 33+4 weeks, both adbomens measuring 34+6 weeks and both babies are estimated to weigh just under 5lbs (4lbs 13oz to be exact!)
Considering im only 32 weeks, the size of these little chubbas is a little intimidating!

Also the sonographer showed us twin 1s chubby cheeks and that twin 2 has hair!!

 

[nesSAH]

Seoul, Messica: Great news on scans and congrats on knowing genders!!Aw! So excited for you ladies

princess_1991: Wow! love chubby baby cheeks... more to smooch when they arrive. You are almost there missy!!

MamaMac123: I feel you on the weird dreams Sorry about the discomforts. I have never had heart burns with any of my babies but maybe 'cos I eat spicy food and my body is used to it? However, I am still rolling over with nausea and vomiting every other day
And yeah- I get leg cramps at least twice a day! why?!!
Oh! The joys of pregnancy -

Fides: Poor you! I'm glad you can still swim and get lots of exercise. I think I have a bit of spd too... I am the clumsiest person and already tripped over 3x now with my wobbly joints

Thank God! I finally have an OB appointment for next week

The good news is it will all be worth it for those lil' cuties on their way
Wishing y'all beautiful mamas a wonderful week.

 

[MissyLissy]

I can't believe I really haven't been to this twin and multiple section yet! I'm just over 19 weeks, due in November with boy/girl twins! Would looooove to join y'all!

 

[~Brandy~]

Welcome MissLissy! Most of all congratulations Twins are an amazing blessing

 

[ariel01]

Congrats Missy and welcome!!

Hope everyone is doing well and hanging in there! It's exciting to hear about genders and scans and sounds like everything is going well, despite all the craziness we deal with during twin pregnancies! Keep going mamas!

I'm amazed to say I've made it to 35+5 after all of our previous scares and hospital stays. Induction is scheduled July 14, will try vaginal birth as both girls are head down. Can't wait to see the babies!
