So on February 7th at 1 am I took a pregnancy test because I was over a week late. To my surprise it came back positive. So that became our 5th pregnancy.
I was cramping from that point on. I finally called my OB doctor the morning of the 22nd. He had me go for an ultrasound. I was actually really nervous. When I went the lady started with an external ultrasound. When she put it on she seen a sac with a yolk but could not see an baby. I started shaking, I thought something was going wrong. Then she did the internal ultrasound. She found the baby with a heartbeat. It was a sigh of relief. She said that she was going to check my ovaries to see if I had a cyst on it. On her way to my ovaries, my husband said what was that, just want to make sure that it isn't twins. So I was looking at him not the screen. Then the lady goes, Oh my goodness, you are having twins. I asked if she was joking. Oh course she wasn't joking. There they were both with heart beats and both babies where measuring 4 days small. However, their heartbeats were both on the low sound of normal.
On 2-28-11 I had my 8 week appointment. The doctor did an ultrasound and both babies heart rates were normal and Baby A was measuring a day ahead and Baby B was measuring a day behind. Another sigh of relief. From my ultrasound you can tell that Baby B's sac is on the smaller side. When Baby B was looked at by itself, the sac was just a little bit smaller than Baby A's. The doctor said that I had nothing to worry about.
My next appointment is March 28th. That will be my 12 weeks appointment.
