I have also already been released to OB/Gyn. We will have another u/s in 4 weeks on 3/25. That seems like forever. I have now spotted twice, the other day I think was from the pap smear they did at the OB. So, I tried not to freak out, and it went away over night.

I am having a little pain on my left side down around where my ovary may be. Not severe, but it is enough to let me know its there. I again, am trying to stay calm and just hope it is my uterus stretching!!

Hope you all have a great day!!

Glad to hear there is lots of good news on here and everyone is doing well!

Kory - I agree, with multiples, especially 3 possibly 4 that seems like a LONG time to have to wait. If I were you I would get a second opinion or ask your ob for some follow up sooner.

Claudia - I should have mentioned that my appt on the 4th is with an OB not my RE. I too was released! I hope they do an u/s.... I know I'm seeing the nurse not the doctor as they were full until April.....

Does anyone else still not really 'feel' pregnant? Besides being a little tired and very constipated I feel quite normal..... Makes me paranoid. Frustrating thing is I can't remember how I felt with DD, I know my boobs hurt more but I also know it's common for them not to react as much in the 2nd pregnancy....

congrats on all the ultrasounds!! it's so exciting that we are all pretty much at the same stage!

i had my first OB appt yesterday, but all we did was talk. he would have done a pap and cultures, but b/c i'm still on the progesterone suppositories, he wants to wait. and i go in about 3 weeks for u/s. they will do that nuchal translucency scan then too. i'm excited, but nervous, b/c that seems so long away.

and i don't really feel preggo either. i have gotten used to most of the symptoms, so i don't really notice anymore (except for the heartburn...).

i hope everyone has a nice day today. i'm busy at work, and looking at the snow coming down pretty badly. makes it about the 4th day in a row it's snowed here........

Christie - I have had pains on both sides on and off. I am just attributing it to stretching or constipation as it goes away sporadically. I have just developed this shooting pain in my butt that probably isn't related but is still very annoying.

No pregnancy symptoms really here either - I was just telling my dh last night that I really wish I would start showing so I would have some proof that this is real. I have tender (.)(.) but they haven't grown much as far as I can tell, I got extremely tired in the evenings, am very hungry a lot more often, and am always thirsty but that is it. No sickness, no nausea, no heartburn, nothing that I would notice excessively if I wasn't looking for every little thing!

[mum2abbylily]

Actually the shooting pain in your butt is probably your sciatic nerve - I get that too (on the left side going down my butt to upper leg) It's really common in pregnancy....I had it on and off all through with DD.

[fossie]

I have heard of sciatica but thought it was too early for that. Was just kind of chalking it up to being suddenly so sedentary!

[CatIz1]

Christie - I've been getting a pain on my left side as well every so often.

I'm with you ladies- I don't feel , just tired all the time and once in a while I'll feel nauseous. I wish I could do my u/s already so that I know everything is ok. 7 looooong days to go - I don't think I can wait that long.

Hi All

I hope to join you - I am due October 10th and I've kind of been holding off joining this thread just because I was too nervous to believe it was true, but now that we've seen our twins heartbeats, I feel a bit better.
I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying pregnancy!

[fossie]

Celeste! I too was very nervous, but I try to talk myself into a bit of logic and realize my posting on the web is not going to jinx it - now if only I good believe that about looking at baby stuff! It's great to have another person expecting twins! Has your doc told you that October 10th is not going to happen? Mine said to count on about three weeks before that date at minimum so I guess I am really due in September but I am so far behind those girls that I am more comfortable here - hope all will have me!

[norcal]

Hi Ladies! Checking in for today. Glad to hear so many of us are doing well.


Sx's - I am getting the stretching and constipation pains that come and go. Not really heartburn, but indegestion and really tired at the end of the day. My sciatica nerve acted up on me after that long drive up from Southern California last weekend, but tother that that it's been ok.


So excited! I'm going to buy my belly band today after work. Not that I expect any sympathy but it's been really warm here so most of the clothes I've had that fit are too warm now.

[hopin4baby]

i had to go in today to the dr becuase i have been cramping and spotting. they did and u/s and we found 3 babies but the forth was no where to be found. the dr thinks that the bleeding is from that baby. he wants me to be off my feet for the rest of the weekend.

congrats to all of you that have been able to see your little beans in the past week.
to the new mommies to be

[fossie]

Kory - that is great that you got to see them sooner than you thought and good to hear that three are doing well and that you may have an explanation for the bleeding and spotting :-(.

I am embarrassed to admit this since it is sooo early but tomorrow I am going to a baby show with three friends that are VERY pregnant and I too am thinking about purchasing a bella band, Holly. I wanted to wait until the first trimester was over or at least until my first ob appt. but my pants are all digging in to me!

[fossie]

OK all - I KNOW I am a freak and spend way too much time googling things that are going to make me worry way more than I should but was just wondering if at your U/S appts. did they tell you heart rates and if so what were they? I am worried that my two are so different and that one is too low. Baby A was 165 and Baby B was 143.

[flamingpajamas]

Ok you guys, am I the only one who feels horrible? I have a lot of nausea and heatburn and I am so tired. I have no appetite but I force myself to eat because I know it make the nausea better. At times I feel like I can barely be at work. I keep my office door closed because the smell fo the coffee and food from the kitchen are so awful to me. Does anyone else feel this way? Ugh. I can't wait for this weekend. Maybe I am still recovering from this flu bug, but I am afraid this is going to be my new baseline for the next 4 to 5 weeks! Yikes!

[hopin4baby]

i know how you feel i havent had much m/s but i have gone cold like symptoms 3 times since i found out i was preggy.
