I hadn't realized that I have not written in 6 weeks. I've been really sick. Whomever named it "Morning Sickness" has never experienced this before. It's not just for mornings anymore!!!
The first ultrasound week 5, showed twins! We got to see them again on week 6, and last week at the regular OB (we were released from Dr. Loret De Mola on Oct 13). They are measuring the same size, have their own sacs, and look good.
C-section date is scheduled for May 17, but Dr. Zart will be happy if they make it to April 26. Their lungs will good to go at that point. Twins want to come early so I am preparing my mind for that. Nothing about this road has been easy, so we'll just take this twist and turn as it comes.
I've been emotional at times. Scared. Not sure if I'll be a good parent. Not sure this is the right thing for us. And then others times wanting to meet them so badly already. It is such a rollercoaster. I never thought I'd have two at the same time, so it is a huge adjustment. My body can't go the way it used to, and that is a big change for me.
Bill has been good about getting dinner and doing some stuff around the house. I have zero energy. Hopefully that will subside by week 13/14.
We've got to start thinking about where the babies will live, if we are going to remodel the upstairs or look for a new house. So many tough decisions.
We''ve told some people already, the ones that knew something was up medically, but the others we will wait until after Thanksgiving to tell. I figure a quick note in a Christmas card will be good.
it's been almost 2 months since we found out, time is flying. they will be here before we know it!
