times two
12:35 am ~ 16
Filed Under: Pregnancy

Well I’m finally at my computer for more then 10 seconds so I decided to update. Thanks so much for all the comments on our exciting news!!! You know that’s probably all I’m going to be talking about for the rest of my life so get used to it!

I had a dream shortly after I found out that I was pregnant that we were having twins. I had never even thought about that possibility before so I found it kind of funny that I had a dream about it. I told Preston the next morning and he told me that he too had been having a feeling that we were having twins. We sort of laughed and he teased me about it for about a week and then that was about it. So we went in on Nov. 21st for our first prenatal visit and while sitting in the waiting room I said “hey honey, ya think they’ll find two heartbeats today?” Just kind of joking about my dream while trying to not worry too much about if there will even be a heartbeat at all. I was so nervous for some reason, I kept thinking what if I miscarried again and for some reason didn’t know it this time. Silly me.

So it’s my turn to see the doctor and I’m feeling sick to my stomach with worry. The last time I was there was for a check up after the surgery I had so I didn’t have good memories of that office. And just my luck, they put us in the same exact room that I was in when found out I had miscarried. So, the doctor comes in and does a pelvic exam and says “Wow, your uterus is definitely growing!” I didn’t think much of it. I was too busy praying for a heartbeat. So she starts the vaginal ultrasound and sort of sweeps the wand by once really quick and then kind of giggles. I’m like “uh… okay”. Preston says “Was that….” and has this look on his face. I’m like what the heck did I miss something? She points to baby #1 and there’s the heart beating perfectly and then there’s this second black spot next to the baby’s sac. So I say “What’s that?!?” Half expecting her to say “Oh that’s a cyst/tumor/giant hole” and she starts laughing and says “Well……..” pointing to baby #2 “…..you’re having twins!” I just start crying, Preston jumps out of his seat and starts hugging me and crying. It was awesome. I was in such shock. My crying quickly turned to laughing and I still laugh every time I look at the ultrasound picture (which is about 800 times a day). I still can’t believe it. They are so perfect and cute and I love them so much. They are both the exact same perfect, right on track size with excellent heartbeats.

I was more in shock that I was right, that my dream was right, than the fact that we were actually having twins. I feel so blessed. I feel like I don’t even deserve something so incredible. God just keeps on amazing me. What’s next?

So with two times the baby has come two times the “all day sickness”. It’s been really bad but it’s slowly getting better. I so tired. I sleep a lot and a lot of the time I feel kind of bad for it but then I have to talk myself into not feeling guilty and remind myself that my body is working on two babies. My jeans won’t button anymore. I bought a Bella Band this weekend to hold them up while they are unbuttoned. I love it, it’s such a great idea because I was having to wear belts with unbottoned jeans and long shirts. I’ve gained one pound so far. I was looking at my 4 week picture compared to my 9 week picture and WOW. I’m really showing. Maybe I’ll post a picture sometime soon. I’m not too keen on posting pictures anymore, as you could imagine.

Well anyway, I’m tired and I’ve got a horrible headache so I’m off to bed.

Filed Under: Ebay, General

I seriously considered buying a Playstation 3 just so I could resell it on ebay. Now I’m pissed that I didn’t! Can you believe that??? Who on earth would pay that much for a video game system???

Meanwhile, I got my SNES that I bought on ebay in the mail today. The guy sent me the wrong power adapter so now I have to hope that a) it works and b) I can find the right one. Here I am sad that I can’t play my SNES while people camp outside and freeze while they wait to spend retarded amounts of money on a Playstation 3.

Okay so I am officially throwing up. Several times during the day and night. And I’ll admit, as much as I hate to throw up, it sure feels a lot better than fighting it.

Tomorrow I’ll be 7 weeks. I am getting semi nervous because I started miscarrying at 7w3d last time. Once I make it to 8 weeks I might feel more at ease… but actually probably not. This seems to be going by so fast already. I remember last time it seemed to go by slow…

Hey this is sort of cool… I am 6w6d today, I got married when I was pregnant last time at 6w6d.

Okay well I’m going to find something to drink because I am so, so thirsty.

New 1st appointment
6:35 pm ~ 6
Filed Under: Pregnancy

I’m so frustrated. The first time I made my appointment they scheduled me for the wrong doctor so I had to reschedule. Well tonight at 5:30pm I get a call saying that I have to reschedule again and that I can’t come to my appointment tomorrow. Aparently they had a meeting last night and agreed to not do ultrasounds before 7 weeks anymore. I was going to be 6w2d on my appointment tomorrow. I had felt that this was too early to begin with, and even spoke with the nurse to make sure that an ultrasound was reasonable at that time. She told me that 6w2d would be just fine and to make the appointment since that was the only one available until the end of the month.
Well now there is still no appointments available until the end of the month. So now I have to wait until November 29th for my first appointment. I will be 9w1d.
I don’t now why I’m so upset over this. I guess I was just really excited for tomorrow. I should of just gone off my initial thoughts and not made an appointment so early even though they said I could. I wanted to be sure a heartbeat could be seen at my appointment because I didn’t want to go between appointments worrying that there wasn’t a heartbeat.

Remember that morning sickness I was talking about? Yah well it is now all day sickness. The day I posted about feeling nauseous was the first time I had felt really nauseous with this pregnancy. Well since that day it has been pretty much non stop. It’s really bad in the morning and then it will back off and come back throughout the day. I’ve also been sleeping like crazy. I am SO tired. No matter how much I sleep I am still so tired. I basically slept all day today. And food? Forget about food. Nothing sounds good at all. I am having to force myself to eat. I am still getting enough to eat, but it’s work for me because nothing at all sounds even remotely good.

But I’m not complaining. It’s all a nice reminder that my body is working hard on making our precious little baby
