Currently Pregnant with Twins!

I am currently 9 weeks and 3 days with 2 sea monkeys...I have no idea what they are...I can't wait to find out! I am praying for one of each but I have this feeling it's going to be 2 girls. But who knows right?

I am just trying to get over the symptoms of the 1st trimester and I can't wait to feel normal again. I am just really tired and nausous all the time. it's crazy! Nap time, anyone?

i thought i was prego with 2 given all my symptoms, nope just one pain in the butt baby! lol im gonna have my hands full if one lil bean was makin all that noise! =) Its just ONE happy healthy baby and I am so in love already! I actually sighed a sigh of relief after we saw it was just one. I only ovulated from my right ovary, the one with 1 egg in it, I had the other 2 eggs in my left ovary that cycle. Twins would have been fun though =)

Good luck to you ladies and your beautiful lil twins.

Angie - Are you needing maternity clothes yet? I think I'm a few weeks away from going into the next size maternity clothes. I'm growing so quick. I'll post recent pictures tonight. It's funny because I literally look like I have a perfectly round basketball under my shirt - I guess with twins you carry all over!!

Hey twin mommies.... I have a question for you. Did you take meds? IUI? IVF? I have a hard time keeping track of who did what, when, so it's easier to see it all in one post. lol

Melissa: Oh yeah....I do wear maternity clothes already...I guess I can still squeeze myself into the regular clothes but maternity clothes are just so much more comfy...you know? they say that if you carry all in the front, its going to be boys...I guess the old wife's tale is right! hahaha

Tess: I went through a cycle of IVF and we put back 3 embryos and 2 stuck! :-)

PS I can't wait to see your baby bump!

I'll try to post them tonight. I was wearing maternity clothes at 10 weeks. Yes they are much more comfortable but nowhere near as cute! I have to dress up for work everyday so it's a struggle. Oh well. You'll see from the pics that I am 100% carrying in the front.

My biggest thing now is the heartburn and the fact that I'm not as mobile as I used to be. I can't really lift myself up anymore so I always use my husband as a support. Things are definately more difficult and about to get worse. We have another ultrasound on 1/20 and then go to the OB on 1/26. After that appt on the 26th, we're on to appointments every 1-2 weeks. They said they'll maybe let me go every 2 weeks if things are going ok. And I have my first baby shower on 2/15!! It's crazy how fast things are going.

Hi Tess - I did 3 rounds of IUI with 100mg Clomid and obviously the 3rd time worked.

Enough of me rambling!!

Melissa! OMG! I can't believe how fast time is flying...already nearing baby showers? That's just nuts!!

Are you taking anything for your heartburn? my doc told me to take Zantacs...so I have been taking those...heartburns are just a pain aren't they? I have them every night...they tell you to eat small meals frequently throughout the day and not to eat 3 hours before bedtime but how practical is that to do...I have taken TUMS before but that obviously didn't do anything!

I started the maternity clothes at about 8 weeks and 4 days. I am fortunate because I don't have to dress up for work!

Were you always curious what was going on in your belly between ultrasounds? I don't have an ultrasound scheduled for another 6 weeks or so and I keep on wondering if the twins are okay in there...I am sure they are but since I can't feel anything yet..I get curious...were you like that in the beginning?

Heck yes I was like that and I still am even though I get ultrasounds every 4 weeks!! I just started feeling them move at 20 weeks but even still it's not all the time and it's not very strong like some ladies talk about. I wonder if it's because there's not a lot of room for them to be stretching out and moving all over the place!! I'll worry every day until they are here and then a whole new set of worries start. I always wonder if there's still 2 but I have been a little bit better about freaking out.

I just discovered 2 days ago that chewing gum relieves heartburn. I found it on the internet somewhere and it actually works!! My heartburn is so bad at night that I can't sleep. So Monday night I got up at 2:30am and needed some serious relief so I got a pices of gum and chewed it until the flavor ran out (I think I was still half asleep!) and it was gone and I couldn sleep the rest of the night. Then last night I chewed a piece right before bed and didn't have any problems all night long. I don't understand it but it's working. I'm also finding that it doesn't matter what I eat or drink... I'll have the heartburn. And I've never had heartburn before being pregnant.

Hi everyone. I am almost 8 weeks pregnant with twins. I am already not fitting into my clothing and everyone is starting to ask if I am pregnant. I was hoping to get through the first trimester before making an announcement. Is it normal to be showing this soon with two?? I am petite to start with so I am not sure if thats why my bump is already so noticeable.

Tess- I did two rounds of IUI with 50mg of clomid
