Hey Everyone!

Sorry it has been so long since I wrote. I have been checking in on all you guys though and there has been such exciting news!

I am feeling great and getting fat! I have gained almost 20 lbs already. I know that seems like alot for just 11 weeks, but I have read how important it is for moms expecting multiples to gain weight in the first trimester. Plus ( I am so embarassed to admit this) I only quit smoking a couple of weeks before the IUI, so I gained some weight from that too. I just want to give these babies every chance in the world to be born weighing 8 lbs a peice!!!! :D :D

I go back to the doctor May 13 for a check up. I will let you all know how everything goes.

Heathermac....how are you feeling momma? When is your next doctor's appointment? Have you had another u/s yet?

Thanks for checking on me!

Darby its good to hear from you. I'm glad you are enjoying your pregnacy. We miss you on the board...keep in touch.

Darby,

I'm glad to hear from you!! I figured you were EXHAUSTED hauling around twins...I'm nearly comatose and I've just got one!!

I am SO SO SO glad you're feeling great!! I'm not feeling good at all, and I was wondering if you were feeling really bad with twins. I've been sporadic in my postings because some days I just can't move I'm so sick to my stomach. But, I'm so glad for it...it means all is well and I couldn't ask for more.

I haven't had another u/s yet...went for my first OB appointment Friday, and doc said I'd get an u/s @ 20 weeks!! Grr...I didn't want to wait that long, but when I got home, two friends told me they didn't get their u/s until AFTER 26 weeks!! I'd nearly go insane, so I was glad I only had to wait until 20. I go back on May 23...I think. We just closed on a house yesterday so between being sick and all that house stress, I can't remember things as well as I used to.

I'm so glad you're feeling good - I know quitting smoking is tough, and you did it DURING the stress of infertility! DOUBLE HARD!!! Kudos to you, girl!!

How great - you have twins, Cassandra has twins...this is so awesome! I'm so glad to hear you are well and that things are going wonderfully. I hope you three have a wonderful nine months together and those two come out 8 pounds a piece and as beautiful as anything you've ever seen.

BabyBound is right - we do miss you around here, but I understand why you don't post as much...you've got a lot going on!! Keep us updated and keep feeling great!! I've got you in my prayers!!

We're all cheering for you and keep in touch!!
