Baby4 us, I probably won't know gender for another 5 weeks or so. It makes it difficult and that is only if they both cooperate. LOL My DH chose the nursery theme, that was what he had as a baby so wants ours to have the same. I have done it 4 times before and chose everytime so I am letting him choose as much as he wants to. It is pretty rare to have a dh be so involved as to want to pick nursery themes. The walls in our room are a sky blue, he wants to paint the trim ivory, and we are getting cherry furniture. If one is a girl on her side I will just do a lot of pick accents. You don't know the gender? Did you want a suprise? Hope you have a great day.
32 yr old with 36 yr old dh been married 4 years, I. First IVFw/ICSI scheduled January 2006..... BFP on Feb 6, 2006. Due October 14th...It's TWINS!!!!! Babies arrived 14 weeks premature, boy 1lb 11 ounces and girl 1 lb 9 ounces
Hello Everyone - I have been away from the board for some time now - it is nice to check back in and see how well everyone is doing!
As for me, I will be 34 weeks on Sunday. Last u/s (3 weeks ago) showed the boys measuring in at 4 pounds and 4 pounds 3oz! Hard to believe - but I do feel 'heavy' (figure that's about 10 pounds of baby and 'stuff' in there I am carrying around).
Dr. Took me out of work at week 29 just to be cautious and try to prevent premature labor. My only issues are back pain if I am up too long or try to do to much and terrible reflux! After I eat, it feels like the babies are kicking the food right back into my throat! (nice thought, huh?).
So, I sit at home and wait for any signs of labor. I am excited, but trying not to think too much about exactly HOW they are going to get out of my belly and into this world. Hopefully, rather painlessly and quickly!
I am experiencing some lower abdominal cramping. Doc says this is normal. I think my uterus is just so big it actually hurts!
Anyway, nice catching up with everyone - good luck!
Hey Sussie88....good to hear good news. I am only 11 weeks with twins and it has already been quite an experience. I will be glad to know what the genders of my babies are. I know what you mean about wondering how they are going to get out of you....been thinking along those lines myself. Take care and gets lots of rest. Sylvia

37 yrs. old, DH is 39 -- TTC for a year and a half.. One blocked tube. Completed two IUI's (both on 1050 iu's of Gonal-F). BFP Sept. 28. Annabel born on June 7th - 1 day after my official due date!!
I was just reading about the worries about how the baby is going to get out of you!! I love it! This is my second, and I know some of the others of you have other children too, but even though I have done this before, I am concerned about how that is going to happen this time. You just forget about it. I mean, I know how it happened and it wasn't that horrid of a deal, but it is hard to believe. I can only imagine what those of you with twins are thinking, I guess it is the same though. They are coming out one of two ways! Crazy!
33 years old, DH 34, married 9 years, one DD-5 years old concieved naturally after 2 years TTC, TTC for 2 years for #2, Clomid for 5 months, IUI 4 times with Gonal-F (2 canceled, 2 failed), 1st IVF in August, BFP 9/5/05, Due Date May 17, 2006, DS born May 8, 2006
I go to the Doc tomorrow for my routine exam. I can't wait to see what position they are in now. They keep flip flopping around - although I don't know how they are doing it, they have to be running out of room in there!
As far as delivery - I made it clear to the Doc that I do not want to go BOTH ways. One way or the other! So, if there is any inkling that one baby won't be turned the correct way for a natural delivery - then take them both. I don't really want to be cut open, but I also don't want to be sore in two areas and labor for hours to deliver one and c-sec the other.
Well, the good news about having twins is I'll walk out of there with 2 babies - so if it is bad, no pressure to have another
