Here we go! I had my official 6 weeks confirmation of heartbeats sono on Thursday and drum roll please.......2 HEARTBEATS!!! I am carrying twins again! I definitely wasn't expecting this based on my betas but I guess that just goes to show those numbers don't mean a whole lot. I actually was kind of expecting it because I sonoed myself at work and saw 2 so by Thursday I wasn't surprised. But how amazing is it to see 2 little tiny size of chocolate chip babies with little heartbeats flickering! I'm very excited and happy for the IP's. Obviously, it's still very early and a lot can happen between now and D day, but we'll just hope for the best for this family to receive 2 healthy term babies!
As for me, I sweet talked my REI Doc into letting me do vaginal suppository progesterone now that I'm pregnant so I only have to do the 0.3ml of estrogen IM every 3 days! My butt isn't sore at all and I'm one happy surro momma! I will continue this regimen until I'm 10 weeks pregnant. Only 3 weeks and 2 days left! I have another sono scheduled for next Thursday to make sure they're still doing well. 2 weeks after that I'm supposed to have another one, but I have a trip to Jamaica planed already so we'll see when that one will actually happen?
I still don't have many symptoms? I have a little nausea here and there, nothing too serious though. I'm peeing a lot, but I'm drinking a lot too so it could be that? My most annoying symptom is dizziness when I stand. My blood pressure must tank when I stand up because I almost pass out quite frequently. I have to remind my self to stand up like an old lady, nice and slow. Also in the mornings after I take my progesterone i feel little drunk for like an hour or so. I never felt like that with the other surrogacy so I'm not sure where that comes from? I have a theory that being on all the meds prior to being pregnant is what makes me not feel the symptoms much? I could just be crazy,or the luckiest pregnant woman ever, I'm not sure which but you will not ever hear me complain!
