Tam- congrats on getting to the next step!!

Kim- that's great news, I'm glad your scan went well. I know what you mean about it finally starting to let yourself believe that it is real. I'm just getting to that point.

Irena-glad your scan went well too. Is your DH feeling better about having twins? You had mentioned that he was a bit overwhelmed at first.

Have a fun weekend everyone!

'A bit overwhelmed' is putting it mildly. I think he's also drained by me being sick basically from March on. I think he's trying not to think about it these days.

Hey ladies,
Glad to hear everyone is doing well. We had a great time at the lake and hated to come back. We are now back in the real world and trying to get things ready around the house. My husband will be leaving in 1-2 weeks for a 4-5 month trip, so we have a lot to get ready. We already bought the baby furniture and have tinkered with the theme. I have always loved classic pooh but that is hard to find now. I had a few things from over the years so I think we will still go with that. I just feel like I have to get so much done since my husband will be gone. Wish us luck. Otherwise I am still waiting on my doppler which should be here next week. My pregnancy symptoms have gotten better which of course scares me but I am also glad. I do have a new one now. Numb tingly left leg. It just feels funny. I looked it up and it sounds normal. I also can not get comfortable to sleep for anything. I may ask the MD about Benadryl or something to help that.

JJ: Come on down, the weather is fine. Myrtle beach only got light flooding but it should all be cleaned up by tomorrow. We love our tourist so trust me, clean up is a priority.

Hope the rest are doing well and glad to hear about all the great scans. I am jealous because I won't get another one until 20-22 weeks. Oh well, take care Tonya

Glad to hear everyone is doing great! Irena, those pics are so cool! I love the one on your profile!

Hope everyone continues to have a good week this week! I had to work a lot of OT last week and hoping that will not continue tomorrow.

I have my next OB appt on the 19th but I don't think she will do a sono at that time.

JJ-how do you like the doppler so far? I was thinking of getting one, but decided not to. How often are you listening to it?

Tamtam-I hope you are feeling better.

Tmelt-yikes, your DH will be gone for a long time-what does he do that takes him away for months? At least he should be back in time for when the baby comes.

Irena-those photos are great!

Tina- overtime stinks, hopefully you can have a good week!

Well I have been feeling better and less nausious lately, but when I brush my teeth in the morning I usually throw up immediately-what's up with that? I thought I should be getting better soon-oh well at least I know that I am still preggers-hehe

I hope everyone is doing well.

Hey everyone,

Rebekah: Love the pics. its amazing how big they are already?

Reenabear: Yep its a long time and it sucks. The old man is military and I will be so glad when he is able to retire. We are used to it though.

Hope everyone else is doing well. It has been pretty quiet on here. We went to Target today and bought more baby room stuff. It is so fun. Oh well have a great week all, Tonya

I am having that same problem. I almost can't even brush my teeth these days. I gag so bad and then am so nauseus after for awhile. It's terrible.

I've used my doppler only once, so far. We'll see how long the glow lasts from the u/s until I need reassurance again.

Hi girls,

So glad everyone is doing so well. You girls with the dopplers are making me jealous!

Irena or should I say Rebekah - by the way I love your name, my dd's middle name is spelled the same way, she is Rosemary Rebekah - anyway love the pics your little ones are so sweet!

Well I am officially definitely showing - I think my uterus and abdominals just got so stretched with the twins I just popped out quick this time. Anyway we went to burger king for lunch today and I took Wyatt over to the play area. There was this little boy (probably about 3) and his mom sitting on the floor playing. The little boy pointed to Wyatt and said look Mom the baby is in there. The Mom looked up and said "yes she has a baby in her tummy". Granted I am wearing maternity clothes and that makes it more noticeable, but pretty funny at 13wks. I have my NT scan tomorrow, can't wait to see my little one again
Hugs
Kimmy
