I'm Officially on the way to becomming America's Next Top Momma! x2- Ultrasound #1 -


Here's the recap to date: Beta #1 - 500 - 10dp5dt, Beta #2 - 3671 - 14dp5dt

The first pregnancy scan (u/s) was initially scheduled for this Thursday, however, last night we had a bit of a scare. I went to pee and had an unpleasant surprise - light pinkish brown spotting. Needless to say, I freaked the Fuck out! Panic and worry shot through me and I was beside myself.

I had the u/s moved up and we went this afternoon for the big news. We sat in the room waiting for the RE for a good 20 minutes. OMG this was worse than the TWW. The 20 minutes felt like 20 hours. I don't think I've ever felt so much anxiety and overall nausea at one time.

The Doc started the U/S and formally introduced us to our 2 beautiful little beans. Yes! We are having TWINS!!!! They are snuggled side by side. Both are perfect in size and are measuring exactly what they should be at 5w6d :) Baby A and Baby B both presented very faint heartbeats as it is still too early but we are scheduled for out next ultrasound in 10 days. Hoping to hear the beautiful sound of our babies' hearts.

The doctor said that many women spot and I should try not to worry. Relief.
BTW, I just realized I know nothing about babies. OMG I'm having TWINS :0

    Congratulations! I spotted with our first twins, and our RE said the same thing. And it went away after less than a week. Try not to worry and enjoy your babies!

    Being an egg donor is a wonderful thing to do. This is because you know that you are helping other women who cannot have children get pregnant and begin a family. It is a very satisfying experience, especially if you get to know the recipient and can share their joy with them.
