Update July 17 - TWINS - I am having twins
The title that is being displayed in this thread is no longer properly updating. I hope that you call continue to check here for updates.
Hi everyone.
I have mentioned in several threads that I am pregnant with our second child. Today was my 13wk ultrasound and we just found out that I am having twins, so babies 2 and 3 are on their way. Just to be clear, twins do not run in our family, so we are all quite surprised. However, it does explain some symptoms that I have been experiencing that are worse than with my son or that are new with this pregnancy. My neighbour has been insisting that she thinks that I am pregnant with twins, so I will tell her when I see her later this week.
I am a high risk pregnancy to begin with due to my own per-existing medical condition, so I am already under the care of a GP, hematologist, and OBGYN. The babies will be born in Saskatoon, just like our son.
DS will turn 3yrs old in early Sept. My official due date with the twins is August 24.
The ultrasound tech told me that the babies are measuring at 14wks
Baby A: 8cm long, 159bpm
Baby B: 7.9cm long, 153bpm
I'm looking forward to the responses in this thread.
My mind is still processing the information and coming up with a variety of things we need to consider.
I'm looking for advice, information on special freebies for twins, etc.
Thank you!
