Due anytime Summer 2012

Hi ladies.  I know it's kind of early for me, being only 7wks 5days along, to start this, but I wanted to start sharing this journey with others due around the same time as me.

I know many of us (me included) are afraid to put ourselves out there this early, afraid that something might go wrong, but I have known so many of you for you long, that I just couldn't wait any longer to start sharing experiences with you.  I have never been this far along in a pregnancy, and am so sure I am going to have tons of questions.

I am expecting twins, and am still in shock! :)  We have a due date of Aug 9th, but It will probably be more like July 26th, due to it being twins
I feel pretty good most of the time,  but if I don't eat every 2-3 hrs, the babies let me know it!

Just wondering how everyone else is feeling, and wondering if anyone else has questions we can help each other with....

Hugs!!!

Oh yes, I have been dealing with the spotting since dec 18th...off and on.  My nurse said they believe it is from the progesterone meds we are on.  I am down to every other day on the shots, and it has lessened.  Hopefully it will stop soon.  
Are your daughters excited about the pregnancy?  I sure hope so :).

I got my BFP on boxing day, so I'm 5 weeks 3 days along. So yes still very early, and every bit afraid as you are. We're not sharing our pregnancy news with anyone until we're out of the "danger zone" (first trimester). I haven't even told my mom yet!

I go to the doctor next week for the blood work (beta), and hopefully I might be able to get an ultrasound done at the same time.

Symptoms are showing up early with this pregnancy. I'm already looking pregnant from the bloating. And nausea is hitting me early too. We had a son 6 years ago. So this time around we're hoping it's a girl.

It may be crazy, but we've already picked out a girl's name. Haven't come up with a boy's name yet. If this is a girl, her name will be Addison Natasha

Welcome!

Glad to see your having symptoms already! : ) That just means baby is growing! :)  I hope they do an u/s for you w/ your bloodwork.  That would be re assuring.  

I love the name Addison!  Love it!!!  We may be using it too :)  of course, it will take a lot of discussions :)  For a boy name, I like Grant and Greyson, but, again, I'm sure there will be discussions : )

We haven't told our parents either.  I hope to soon, but as of now, only a few people know.

Let us know how our appt goes!!!!

Hey, Ladies!
I decided to join you (mhv- thanks for invitation:-))). According to the latest u/s I am 7w 1 d today. I had 2 miscarriages before and try to believe that this is IT!!! I am pregnant with 1 adopted embryo and already love her/him:-)))
My next u/s is on 1/10 (Tuesday) and I really hope and pray that my baby's heart will be strong and healthy.
So far, so good; not too many pregnancy symptoms- just tired, a little nauseous and bloated. God is good:-)))
