Annnnd.....the OTHER bean....haha! That's right! There's another one! Deuces!!! Well the other one is perfect and the heartbeat was 114. We were in shock.
Here's a family pic:
I was concerned that the one on the left was small but the doc assured me it was because it implanted lower and is on a different viewing plane but they are indeed the exact same size. Two little heartbeats. I cried and cried and felt a huge weight lifted for about two seconds only to be replaced by "holy sh!t...twins!" I don't know why we were so shocked and it sounds silly considering that we put two eggs in, so of course there was a real possibility that we could have twins. I just didn't feel pregnant. How can I be making two humans right now and feel fine??? And cuckoo confession #1 I literally took a test everyday until this morning because I didn't believe it. But today was different. Before the appointment, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. I looked prego-I can't explain it, I don't mean a huge bump or anything. Maybe it was bloating or progesterone induced hallucinations...but I saw it for a split second. And then came the small wave of nausea that has stuck all day along with a ferocious headache out of no where. I still don't know how we got here. Me and R keep looking at each other and going "twins...huh" We spent the afternoon making calls and telling our friends and family. We are so blessed and are scared and excited all at the same time.
In other news they found a dermoid cyst on my right ovary measuring around 6cm...yikes. The doc said no worries and it can be removed at a later time if it doesn't resolve on its own. Still a little scary considering it was not there on the anatomy scan when we started this whole thing. So we will have to wait and see what the OB says. Our next appointment is May 23- the first with our OB who is already my gyn and I already love her. We can't wait to see those little seahorses again! Well, that's about all I can say right now. So glad to see my friends doing well in blogland and hope to keep hearing your good news.
Whoa! Double the congrats!
ReplyDeleteHooray!! Congratulations to you both!! I'm so excited for you! :)
ReplyDeleteAHHH twins! I totally called that! Congratulations to you and your wife! That is amazing that both had great heartbeats too! I went for my heartbeat US at 6 weeks and they could hear it yet! I was devastated but went back two days later and it was there. About the whole pregnancy symptoms.... it feel like the later in the first trimester I get the more they come around. Hopefully they will resolve by 14 weeks. And your due date is less than a month from mine :)!
