Rejoice with Me! We just found out we're having TWINS!!!

[IdaBriggs]

I'm so happy at the moment, its not even funny! We have been struggling with infertility stuff for eight years now, with three miscarriages in there, and we're officially really pregnant with TWINS!!!

We saw the heartbeats -- we are technically 6 weeks and 5 days along, even though egg retrieval was 4 weeks and 5 days ago, because we get a "bonus two weeks" due to the way these things are counted.

I'm nauseous and exhausted, and so happy I can barely breathe!!!

35. That's awesome! How far along is she?

[Beetwasher]

43. 13th Week

She's hanging in there, but she's having a pretty rough time of it. The nausea was really bad and she was unable to keep anything down and was losing weight so the Dr. prescribed an anti-nausea medication that works wonders.

[IdaBriggs]

48. I have a "secret remedy" (totally safe, of course) that seems to be

helping me a lot. Its not 100%, but overall, its been pretty good (as long as I stay away from the Orange Juice with my pre-natals). PM me if she is interested (although honestly, it sounds like things are under control).

[JitterbugPerfume]

23. I am the g'ma of 6yr old identical boys
