Christmas Day

Okay.  I get it.  I'm pregnant.  I actually got pretty excited today, for real.  My second beta this morning was 830.
The beta more than doubled and is well over a normal singleton value.  SuperSue said not to be concerned about twins yet because she has seen some ladies have values this high with singletons.  However, the Great Goog says twins.  Everyone with twins says twins.  I'm thinking maybe twins.
I'm just going to ignore twin pregnancy horror stories for now.  

I'm really not sure what everyone else on the planet is going to eat for the next 9 months, because my appetite is planet earth sized.  

The progesterone in oil, I think, or maybe it's pregnancy, has returned epic insomnia to my nights.  Folding laundry, eating, googling terrible twin names...

Now that it's 11 am, I need a nap.  Sleepytime.  Maybe the boobies will enlarge in the next couple of hours.  I've been waiting 3+ years for pregnancy, but about 15 years for knockers I can be proud of, knockers that might actually require a bra!  Now that would be a dream come true. My first real bra.  Awwww...

  4. Yeah, the bummer with big pregnancy boobies is that they hurt. It doesn't make them very fun.

    If our great-grandma could do twins 85+ years ago, then you can do it now. You come from a legacy of strong women (perhaps not always in a good way--but take advantage of it when you need it).

    Remember: working in pediatrics you see all of the bad stuff--keep your eyes out for great examples of twins. I have known multiple multiples that have turned out alright. Anyway, in for a penny, in for a pound, there's not much you can do about it now!

    I'm so thrilled for you guys!!!!! Enjoy these first days, they're loaded with the wonder of life.

  5. so freeking exciting!! Don't listen to the horror stories.... I was never even considered high risk, didn't even have more frequent MD appts... just more ultrasounds which was nice!. Twin pregnancies really aren't that much riskier than singleton... Okay you don't even know if it's twins yet... Anywho, glad you are able to enjoy it! Congrats over and over! Keri
