Week 8:
I'm running laps around my mummy's uterus these days! Well at least one of us is doing our cardio.
I'm nearly an inch tall & weigh one whole gram & my tiny earlobes are visibly developed.
Week 8 for the larger of the two came yesterday. And this morning....up came my oatmeal and toast. Not even 5 minutes after I ate it.
But I have to be truthful too...I was going poop, and it didn't smell very well so I started dry heaving, which lead to the upchuck. How am I ever going to handle baby poop? :-)
Had an appt with the family Dr today. I just love him, he's so good. Did a routine physical almost. Not poking around the vag area, he said he thought I've had enough of that lately. haa haa Boy was he right. He asked if I was going to breastfeed and I said I hoped to, so he needed to make sure my nipples weren't inverted. Took a look at them and said "Those will do just fine" lol
At the end of the appt he said obviously you haven't told your parents yet, so don't worry, I won't blow it for you. But on your way out check the waiting room because I think your dad is supposed to come and see me today. We are planning to hold off until week 12-16 to tell everyone and that's just so hard to do.
He's recommended us to an OBGYN that delivered his twins, so the Dr has to be good right? The standard here where I live (Canada), I believe, is that you don't actually get an u/s until week 18-20. The only reason we got one early is because of the fertility issues...So we are blessed that way. But now I have to wait 10 more weeks until another u/s???? How am I going to manage that?
I FINALLY heard from the clinic today...They are on holiday until Aug 17. So I'm pretty much graduated from them. Their purpose is to achieve pregnancy, which they did! They did however suggest to all their fert patients to get an NT scan. Not that it matters to us if our baby has a defect....But it would be nice to know before hand. And it's performed during week 11-13, and it just gives us another chance before week 18 to see the babies...So we said yes. They will call us back with date and time.
That'll all she wrote.

8 weeks already. This pregnancy is going to fly by for you. Sorry to hear about the MS. They say that morning sickness is worse with twins, but that wasn't the case with me. I had it at night for about 2 weeks so I could only eat cereal for dinner or nothing at all, and then it was gone and I was great my whole pregnancy. Congrats again!
I'm so happy that everything is going well!!! That morning s/e has to stink, but it's all so worth it! YAY!
