9w0d


Well let's see, I haven't wrote in awhile. I was pretty much down for the count last week. Bleeding started again, of course the dr's put me on bed rest again. Both babies still look great. I go back to Dr. Richman tomorrow night and then back to the specialist on Friday. Hopefully the clot shrunk. I had some heavy bleeding again at work on Sunday night. I really just wish this would all stop. It's so scary seeing that blood. I haven't really been feeling too good, not sure if it's just normal pregnancy feelings or what, but I just feel horrible. I mean, I know I had it easy with Tyler and now there are two in there, but I honestly feel horrible. It could be from the blood loos, but who knows, I just wish it would all go away! Oh I forgot last week I went and had my last official visit with Dr. Manara. That's what the ultrasound pic is from. Aren't they getting so big. That's a good thing!!! I really am going to miss some of those girls is that office. They were all so great! They said last week that is what the blood could be from, the vaginal ultrasound, but Sunday night, I have no idea. It was bright red. Well, I'll write more later in the week after my dr visits.

Ok. So as some of you know, we had a little scare on Tuesday night. I came home from one of our pocket parties, not feeling too good. When I went to the bathroom before I was going to lay down, there was blood. Well we were scared. We went to the hospital and finally after about 4 hours we finally got to see both heartbeats...Yes, both babies are fine. Thank god. But, they did find a blood clot on the placenta. I was put on bedrest until 24 hours after the bleeding stopped. I was still bleeding until Friday. Let me just tell you how great my husband and son are to me. They fed me breakfast, lunch and dinner in bed. They are the best. Well Friday we met with tthe high risk dr's over at Voorhees. I guess I will be seeing them every 2 weeks. I'm not sure of the dr's name, but he was hilarious. I loved him. They were all very nice at the neonatal unit. They did another ultrasound, Both Baby A and Baby B were perfect. Actually measuring a day ahead. Both heartbeats were 159. I played a joke on Ricky and told him that means they are both girls. He freaked out called his dad and everything. Don't get me wrong, we just want 2 healthy babies, but Ricky is really hoping for 2 boys. Well tonight I go back to work. Excited, need to get back on schedule. I have a dr. appt with Dr. Manara on Tuesday, My birthday, so I'm sure I will be posting again. The pic is from Friday's ultrasound. I was 7w3d.

7w0d


Well today we had our first visit with Dr. Richman. It was a great decision picking him to be my OB. He is great. Ricky and I both loved him. He had us laughing through the whole visit. He confirmed my due date as June 2nd. He said we will scedule my c-section for anywhere from May 14-May21. He said I will probably go out on disability at 28 weeks. That's really early. Going to try and hold off longer then that. He said both Baby A and Baby B are looking great. We still haven't heard the heartbeats yet. I'm gonna make one of the girls hear do it tonight. Maybe Dr. Manara can do it next week. Who know's we'll see. Tyler is very excited about the babies. I really think he is going to be such a big help and a great big brother. Each day it sets in a little more "2 Babies". Crazy huh! I can't wait until they are here. Ricky and I both are exstatic. You should of seen Ricky's face today when he saw the heartbeats again. It was so awesome. Dr. Richman wants me to have the triple screen between 11-13 weeks. He wants me to call the high risk dr and have them do it. He also said with twins, I'll probably be going in every two weeks. I feel very comfortable with him. He is great. Next week, back to Dr. Manara, probably for the last visit, then back to Dr. Richman on the 29th. More to follow.

Well yesterday we went for another ultrasound...It's twins...We saw 2 beautiful heartbeats...Ricky was pretty nervous, kept asking Dr. Manara if it was just 2, "you don't see anymore in there do you?" It was great to see how excited he was when we found out!!! We are both very excited about the 2 lil babies coming into our lives. He said my due date is June 2nd, but I will definitely go in May...Monday I have an appt with Dr. Richmond, he is my new OB, Chrissy loved him, then the 21st back to Dr. Manara, probably for the last time....So exciting. I have been so tired, it is ridiculous. I mean, I know they say you get tired, but, this is unheard of. Monday night was the first time I got sick. Nothing to Ricky, but he was cooking, I was on the couch and smelled something and then went running for the bathroom. It was awful. Hopeflly that doesn't happen again!!! Reading on line so many things, but it is so crazy just to think there are 2 little babies inside of me right now. One web site said they are the size of lima beans...lima beans with beating hearts already!!! Crazy, huh...
