XAAF I know this is a scare to you... it looks like your beta is still climbing up there and you are right there might be a vanishing twin and you are now right on singleton. Don't get yourself too work up and TRY (I know its very hard) to relax. If you could ask your DR to do ultrasound for your peace of mind. You are the patient you have all the rights to ask for it specially you are paying them. Stay off your feet as much as possible and if you can elevate your feet up when you lay down. Drink plenty of fluids. Did he say anything that your suppository could cause some bleeding? Your HCG is not climbing properly but when theres a vanishing twin that's what happen - ask your doctor he should explain all these to you and what causes the bleeding. I will keep checking on you. Take care! that all goes well.

I haven't been feeling too bad, actually. Thanks for asking! They still haven't had an opening in tech school for DH. There were no openings right after BMT, so now he's scheduled to go Jan 1, and he'll be gone for my due date. Thanks, USAF! lol He's thinking about staying ANG for a little while longer because we're trying to get a house and he doesn't want to have to uproot right now. The closest bases to us are McGuire and Dover, and they're both a few hours away. He doesn't want to take me away from my family right now b/c they'll be the only ones here for me while he's in tech school.

Now all the m/s you've had totally makes sense with 2 babies! Hang in there- it'll get better!

According to your hcg levels beta base says your doubling time is 79.36 hours.... now this is putting in your first beta then your last beta... Because you haven't done a beta in several days you will have a better idea come Thursday for that beta... I know your worried and I am soo sorry this journey is not easier on you... I will be for you and your little one and sending you many many

I had to go to the RE due to some issues I was feeling and they wanted me to come in.

They found HUGE cysts, fluid in my uterus cul de sac (did you guys know we had cul de sacs in our uterus?) Also the most fearful of all of the symptoms I was having was from what they call a subchorionic Bleed. It basically is the placenta seperating a tiny bit away from the uterus.
It is not bad at all but I have to take it really easy becasue it can turn into a hemorage and I COULD (but won't) m/c... that is why I am having some major cramping and pain and the bleed can make me bleed but it is ok it is very common.

With all of that crazy news. Getting to go in made me very excited becasue I got to see both little heartbeats.

it was the most amazing time of this journey. I can't tell you how much joy it made me have. I can't believe that two little beans are living inside of me.

Baby A is 6w3d with 119bpm
Baby B is 6w0d with 117bpm

God is Amazing. I do believe this is real now and I am scared at the same time cause I do not want to do anything that will harm those babies.

Lots of Love to you all.
I seriously could not be here and so happy if I did not have you guys to talk to and reach out too.
Thanks so much
God Bless all of you.

Oh my goodness, Martha - that is wonderful news that you got to see your babies and their heartbeats!!!! It must have been an amazing sight to behold. I am so sorry about the complications, but it sounds like you are in good hands with your RE (they seem very on top of things) and it is comforting to know that it is very common. I know you will take good care of yourself and the babies! Big hugs to you and your two little beans!

Xaaf/April, I am sorry you are going through this. I will follow what Mandy and Mwalls have advised. I will be asking God to give you some peace of mind and relax!

Hope2besoon, hi! How are you?

Oh April - I honestly don't know enough about betas to give you any useful opinion. But please know that I am praying for you that everything will be fine!

He's set up to go into 2A5X1 (Aerospace Maintenance). I wouldn't mind McGuire at all, because it's fairly close to NYC, and I could go visit friends all the time, but DH absoultely HATES NYC, so he would definitely pick Dover over McGuire! lol

Dear Marthita,

OMG!! COngratulations!! What an amazing sweet moment today when you listened your twins heartbeat!! Somewhere I read that girls and boys hearts beat at different paces. Maybe we could have an early guess about the sex....

I had cysts before in my ovaries after stims. They are not fun but left by themselves. What is a cul de sac? Sorry for the ignorance, but do you have one or two placentas?

I am pretty sure that if you take good care and REST as much as possible you will fix the situation and the twins will snuggle tighter in there.

Love you!
