Hi Ladies,

Galapos, finally some good news-CONGRATS on the babies. Lots of luck now that they're here. How exciting!

Schumachm, I'm still praying for you. Do all the crying you need to make sure you can breathe (when I'm stressed, if I don't cry, I feel heaviness and can't breathe or think clearly).

Brooklyn, my boys have been really low on the cervix for at least 2 weeks now. During u/s they can see the head and recently oneof their hands! Rest will help.

AFM oh so much drama, dr visits and tests in the past 2 1/2 weeks but basically, I am now only working at the office one day a week and at home the rest of the time. The babies echos were good but we have another in 2 weeks to make sure they are ok. Seems I have the heart irregularities so I now have to see cardiologist. My cervix is still thinning so I have to see ob or peri every week for checks. I am also now on insulin 3 times a day which sucks but hey whatever I need to do to make sure my boys are healthy. We had our shower this past saturday and it was nice to see people we love plus we got SO MUCH stuff it showed us how blessed we truly are. I am optimistic and hanging in. Thinking of you all and praying things go well for all of us!

Hopefully I can be on a little more these days. Have a good night.

Hazel-I am happy to hear you are still pg. You are going through so much. You have to be scared, and my heart goes out to you. I am praying for you.

Got a call this morning from ob he said I should try taking Terbutaline. Has anyone taken this drug?

Hey girls

I haven't written much, but always read how everyone is doing. I have a question for all of you. Do you all feel gigantic? I had my 30 week appointment today and I am measuring 41 weeks, YIKES! Does this sound typical? How far ahead are all of you measuring?

Hope you are all doing well!

Elijah was so low that they couldn't even see the top of his head on my ultrasounds and i will say I was very uncomfortable.I stayed off of my feet as much as I could and it helped a bit.

Schumach,I did take procardia at 33 weeks to stop what my dr called "uterine irritability".it's a drug similar to terbutaline and to be honest,I hated taking it.it made me feel like my heart was going to beat out of my chest,dizzy,and hot.it did,however,work so that was the most important thing.how are you feeling?I know this pregnancy has been hell for you but I have to say that you are handling it wonderfully.not many people could do that.

Hazel,how are you doing?

Hi ladies,

I hope you all don't mind me jumping in on this thread (I can't believe that I just found it). There's so much to read, but what I have read has been so informative!!

maybe1day, welcome!!!!

kayleia, i am 26 weeks and as of last month was only measuring 3 weeks ahead, but i go to the OB on monday and will get measured again. i am beginning to feel big, and my back is beginning to ache, and you are a few weeks ahead of me. i have heard of other people measuring pretty far ahead and im pretty sure someone on this thread measured something similar

[singlemama2twins]

At 30 weeks,I measured 50 weeks and i was constantly crying to my ob how uncomfortable I was and he asked me how many 50 week pregnant women you see and I said none and he said exactly...your uterus is holding double so meauring quite large is very normal....I was worries because I thought 50 weeks at 30 was abnormal but he said w twins it can be totally normal....

Sorry I am just jumping on this thread. My husband and I just found out we are 6 weeks 2 days pregnant with twins! Had to peel dh up off the floor when the doctor said there were two. We are completely shocked! Two hb's, they both measure the same. I just can't believe it!

Congrats on the new expecting twin mommies!
