Havana - I am so glad to hear all the good news. Yeah!! Now you can really start celebrating. Can't wait to see the pic of the u/s and how much bigger the baby has gotten in just a week. So exciting! We're officially on for our lunch date celebration!
Jkris80 - Michy and I were just talking about twin books earlier on the April thread. Do you have any recommendations? I think we're both looking for realistic books that don't just scare the sh*t out of you. This is supposed to be fun! Also, I know with the triplets you have to see a high risk OB. What were you going to do for the twins if you don't mind my asking? I'm trying to decide between an OB that was recommended to me by several people or researching a specialty high risk OB. I was going to discuss the options again with my RE this week at the 8 week u/s.
Michy - It's hard not to keep worrying about the twins. We were so excited to find out we had two but I do worry about losing one. Just a few more weeks and we'll feel better. Unofficially, once you see the heartbeat my RE said my chances of losing one twin went down to 10% at my 6 week u/s. We were really fortunate with a great u/s tech whom used a special screen that showed blood flow on the u/s so we could see the heartbeat on both. I have no idea what the heartbeat number was but I'll ask this time around. If you're looking for something to be nervous about, think about trying to breastfeed two at the same time!
