A little update on us
I had my 12 week appointment this week, and saw two little heartbeats again! It looks like sac number 3 has disappeared, and this time I feel 100% certain that it is twins, and just two!
I am now enrolled in the twin clinic, and will have crazy amounts of appointments and ultrasounds too I guess. The doc said that his goal is for me to get to 34 weeks, which I think is June 8th, and that if I get to 37 - 38 weeks then they will deliver me. (June 29th - July 6th.) We'll see what they tell me at the twin clinic when I start in 2.5 weeks. I want to keep these babies in as long as possible! DD was breech, and broke my waters at 38w5d, so I doubt I will be able to make it to 38weeks with two, but I sure am going to try! This past week has been really bad with morning sickness, but thankfully I am getting good sleep at night. I don't think could handle all day puking on 4-5 hours of sleep! Peanut butter has been my friend - I can always count on it to stay down! ![]() DH's schedule keeps changing a bit. He's gone for training this month, and is still set to deploy. It is now looking like it will be late Spring, possibly early summer. ![]() I can't think if there is anything else I wanted to share! I'm sure there is, but I'll just have to add it in later! I can't wait to get out of this first trimester! And get back to a life of no sickies! ![]() Advertisement

So happy to see you guys are doing good. Sucks your hubby is going to deploy. Mine is leaving this. Month but he will be home in time for this one. I hope you have someone to help when twins get there. I can only imagine how much work it would be. Man I wish I could have twins

Re: A little update on us
34 weeks? How come that number? I would think that they would want them to make it to full terms at 36 weeks. My singletons were both born at 39 weeks and the twins were born at 37weeks 2 days and probably would have been happy to not be evicted lol

Re: A little update on us
so they'll automatically deliver you at 37-38 wks? Will you be having a repeat c-section or something else I'm missing? If babies are growing well and doing well, no reason to evict earlier than they want to come! My cousin's twins were about 39 wks when #1 punched a hole in the sac (her hand was in the vagina). They knew she was going to need a c-section because #1 was breech but the docs still waited until she went into labor on her own or if either baby showed signs of poor growth (which they didn't). I'd fight them on induction early if there's no medical indication for it! Studies show that longer is always better in the womb if baby/babies are doing fine otherwise.

Re: A little update on us
Congrats on having to healthy heartbeats! So exciting! Can't even imagine all of the appointments you'll be having.

Re: A little update on us
Ah, okay. So then I'm guessing you had a c-section since DD was breech then that makes sense why they would choose a specific time range to get it done with 2 in there. Glad to hear you'll have lots of help even though your DH will be deployed
