Hi,
Im feeling pretty great thankfully. My back gets bad sciatic pains at times, and I know its time to stay off my feet, but other that getting tired quicker, I feel good. Hope u do too...I love the thumb sucking pics. So adorable!! My next u/s is in a week. I cant wait.
I was told they cant tell if theyre identical or not...how come many other women know?? Is it that 1 or 2 placentas are present on scan??
: )

I know what you mean, people could not say enough about how hard it was going to be. It would have beennice to have even one person stop and tell me how great is was going to be!! Because the truth is, they have been my biggest joy! It is so sweet to see the bond the have with each other and how they have bonded so quickly with my other children. It's like, they have never known solitude, so they love having other people around and somehow naturally know how to share!!!
I am very anxious to find out what thse are!!!!I I hope they can tell me on the 30th when I have my next "quick" scan. The tech that will doing the scan has done all of the scans on the last two( this being the third) pregnancies and I think she is just as anxious as I am!!!

Hi...well so far they cant tell, because it looks like they share one placenta , but they do have each their own sack...so maybe May 27th we will know , if identical or not and what sex they have....have a nice day :)..

I felt a million times better today! My dr said I could work until 36 weeks, bummer. Who knows what will happen between now and then. I will stop when the kids tell me to! My blood pressure is really good I check it at work all the time. We are going on a dinner boat ride tomarrow, I am super excited! Its the one we got married on! Super romantic! It would have been nice to have a glass-o-wine, oh well, next time! I have one of those super back Shiatzu massagers from Bed bath and beyond, it is worth its weight in gold! It might be a good investment for you and that back of yours! Feel better soon! :)

My twins have been the easiest babies, so prayerfully, the next set will be just as good!!!! How long have you known what the sexes were? Were you surprised by the news of twins?

twinstwice - 38.7 hours ago
I don't have any scans scheduled yet though I would imagine I would probably have a couple in the summer as I get closer to delivery date to see how they are growing and what position they are in.

Glad you have found something to help with the back pain. How is sleeping? I am already having to totally wake up to turn over as it is getting more difficult!

And don't worry about asking questions, I don't mind. I know it would have helped me before to have someone to talk to about the pregnancy and life afterwards!

 OMG! Your ultrasound pics are so cute! Im expecting 2 boys and almost 20 weeks. All the best.

TWINSX2 - 43.8 hours ago
I do have my family close, and my MIL will come stay 4-6 weeks when the twins are born. I think having twins a second time around will be easier for the simple fact that I do have an idea of what to expect!!!!
Hope you feeling well! I am sooooo glad to be out of the 1st trimester and the ms is starting to fade!!!!!!!

weekazarr - Wednesday, 14 May

At my 18 week scan they told me both kids were 9 oz but they hadn't mentioned anything since then. At 24 wks I get another big long 2 hour scan so I bet they will tell me then. Bummer about your back! I am getting the dizzy nautious heartburn with a headache. Its better today thank goodness! Sometimes this isn't so much fun. One girl at work today was trying to help and make me feel better by asking "How do you eat an elephant", the answer is "One bite at a time, just get through minute by minute hour by hour, day by day! Pretty soon this will all be over!" It kinda made me feel better. My sister told me she read somewhere that diapers.com has the best deals on diapers, it might be worth checking into!

I actually don't have any more scans scheduled. My doc isn't worried much about me this time as I did so well last time. I was in today and everything seemed fine.

About the labour for the second twin... I actually don't remember too much. I do remember the relief with having the first one out that I don't think the second set of labour pains were too bad. And then when I tried pushing the second one out I wasn't getting too far too fast so the doc went in to help her out (I think they used vacuum extraction), I was probably just too tired to do it all on my own and they don't like to leave the second one it too much longer after the first, especially since she was the reason I was induced in the first place (she wasn't growing as much anymore).

My back is quite sore too, especially with lifting my girls up a lot. It was great while I was away but starting to get bad again. Have you gained much weight? I am at 25 lbs already and way bigger than last time!

TWINSX2 - Wednesday, 14 May
I know exactly how you feel!!! I do not think I can handle a c-section, having to come home to 5 under 5 with 2 newborns!!!!!
Yes we were surprised to be having ANY, much less twins. Both sets of twins were conceieved while trying NOT to. The harder we try not to get pregnant, they come by two!LOL=)

TWINSX2 - Tuesday, 13 May
Yes you still have lots of time!!! will pray that your son turns soon so you can have peace of mind!!!!!

Hi, I have boy girl twins that are 9 mos and the boy stayed feet down until the day before my induction. The doc thought they may have to do a c-section, but I went in for all of my pre-admission work up and they decided to check one more time and he had turned!!!!! Believe me I did not think there was enough room, but he did it!!!! Good luck and happy gestation!!! I am hoping for b/g again or 2 girls this time!!!! I have three boys within 22 mos, so the girl twin needs buddies! Take care.

Hi! How are you feeling??? You might try the 1800 number, that was how I signed up for the free stuff. Wow yucky headache today! Do you get those much? I skipped work after lunch today because I felt nauseated and light headed and shaky. No fun! I am so bummed the stretch mark fairy came to my house! Not on my tummy yet, just on my sides! Yuck! Yayyy! Hubbys home now I don't have to cook anymore. He may not be very good about backrubs but he does do all of the cooking! I hope you had a great weekend!!

Congratulations on having one of each, I'm really hoping we have b/g we decided not to find out but I've guessed b/g by looking at our scan pics. Both of the babies heads are down at present, so I really hope they stay that way.

HI, thanks for replying to me, you know sometimes feels like I am all alone in this....have shed tears already. My problem is that my BS numbers are going high again, even though I am taking insulin. but my doctors have asked me to be on bedrest
I am going nuts in putting the GD and bedrest together. Because of GD, I need to walk 20 min to 30 min after my meal, but doctor says feets off the ground all the time :(

Crazy how time has gone by!!!

Glad to hear the dress still fits. I am glad I don't have anything this time around, though I still have my dress from last time. However my boobs are way bigger this go and my tops just don't fit right.

My babes are head up and head down, though I am not sure who is further down as the last US tech I had was really bad... she didn't tell me much at all and I never found out their weights either. I don't know if your weights are big or small, you should be able to find out with your doc (last time they always plotted it for me on a chart so I knew their percentile, maybe you can find something online?). I hope the other one turns too since I want to have a natural birth again. Last time one was head up for over half the pregnancy but she turned in the end and both were head down so hopefully we both get that!

Hey, we had a wonderful time on our trip. A much needed break and now I have all the patience in the world to deal with the girls. And I don't feel crazy about getting house work done either... since I get so tired and sore so quick it is good that it isn't driving me crazy (but of course ask me in a week when the house is in a real mess!)

Congrats on a boy and a girl! That is so awesome. That is what we wanted with the first go but alas that just doesn't happen when they are identical!

Does your dress fit you ok? I was a maid of honor for my best friends wedding last time (I was 34 weeks, crazy hey?). Anyways, I managed to find a nice maternity dress and close to the colour she wanted (there were no other bridesmaids so it didn't have to match anything, lucky me). And there are lot of nice dresses in this one store we have here in Canada but maybe they are mostly cocktail dresses, did you need something more fancy? Oh, and don't go with pointy little heals (I was naive enough to think that I could wear them last time but my feet were starting to swell and well, um, at least I looked good!)

Yayyy! I got to see the kids today! I work right next door to my ob office and it had been 3 or 4 days since I had felt some good significant movement, just little bumps here and there. So I called to ask how long it can go being pretty quiet in there before I need to start to worry? They said come on over we will have a peek! So they put me on the ultrasound and there they were quietly sitting there waving their arms and legs. They are right now upside down with their heads by each of my hip bones and their feet are at my belly button. That was why I hadn't felt any big kicks on my sides. My nurse who is a total sweetie, said that it is super common for the moms 21-24 weeks to come in saying the same thing. It made me feel like I am not such a worrier. I too have crazy amounts of stuff coming out of my nose! I can see the bottom of my belly button, its almost flat now, it hasn't popped like yours yet. I told my hubby that story and he thought that was really cute. He can't wait for mine to do that! It is so embarassing, he keeps lifting my shirt and showing friends my big tummy. I think he is having a hard time being gone too. He has called me a million times in the last couple of days. He even called a friend of his to come over and move the yard debris garbage can to the curb so I wouldn't have to move a heavy rolling container. I recieved another box of free formula from nestle good start today! Now I have 4 free cans as back up. June 3rd is my next big scan! It seems like a long ways away! Milk really helps the heartburn, but only for a little while, zantac is great for overnight. I take 1 pill at night and it helps bunches. When is your mothers day? Do you get free dental work too? I am really craving pineapple and corndogs. Not togeather of course, but I may have to hop to the store and get some. Have a great weekend!! Nap! Nap! Nap! :)

The 4d scan is sooo fun! They look really lumpy. It is cool though! I had it with my amnio, that was the only one of those I will get, bummer. I think I go back for a scan at 24wks and that one I guess will be 2 hours long. Weird. Theres no problems so far, just really complete. Then I go again 6wks later. I got my super-duper industrial breast pump in the mail today. Its a double medela. I hear thats the good one and I only had to pay $55 through my insurance, I guess to just buy it off the shelf is $339 so I finally like my insurance company. I would still rather have a babies in london, money-wise, I'll trade you!! :) I thought your scans we free too? Hubby gets home late sunday night now since I called and said he needs to cut this trip shorter! Those hormones!! That back of yours sounds really painful! My big complaint is this constant terriable heartburn! Yuck! Did your honey get you your mothers day present yet? I got a hanging flower basket of fucias to bring the hummingbirds in. I always got it for my mom every year and its so weird now I get one! Our big remodel begins on our house this month. The city has finally approved our plans for expansion! Yayyyy! Have that honey of yours give you a back rub! You deserve it!! Take care!! :)
