Best part of your week? We go for family walks with the dog pretty often, and Zoey usually snoozes in her stroller. But last week she stayed awake for the first time, and seemed to have a great time watching me and looking around.
Worst part of your week? She broke out of her swaddle this morning and woke herself up with the flailing. Foreshadowing of how yucky breaking the swaddle is going to be in the near future.
Milestones? Nothing major, but she has developed great head control and is liking to sit up (assisted) more and more.
PIP those kiddos!
Question for both: What are you most looking forward to for summer? Lots of oceanfront walks (we live on the coast), and cute baby girl summer clothes!
How are you feeling? Not too bad. Still tired, and sore boobs, but that is really it.
What are you craving? Nothing
What is grossing you out? Wouldn't say things gross me out but they are just not appetizing, most things.
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? Nope.
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments? U/s tomorrow with the MFM to try to figure out what the situation (what kind of twins) is! OB appointment on Friday.
Have you / will you found out the sex? Most likely
Any names picked out? Nope- just beginning to throw some around.
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes? Not yet. But I imagine we will need to pick colors soon.
Anything else you would like to add or PIP? Nope!

PMC (Pan-Mass challenge) weekend. H pedals his way from Sturbridge, MA to Provincetown, MA in 2 days, and I volunteer at the registration and the mid- way point. Then we spend another day on the Cape playing mini-golf and eating good food. It will be interesting to see how this year goes!
After 2 years of TTC, lots of tests, and a Hysteroscopy/Laparoscopy to remove several polyps, Clomid/IUI #1 3/14: cancelled due to surprise BFP 3/8/14. Beta 1 3/11: 398 Beta 2 3/13: 728 Beta 3 3/20: 11,482 Surprise BFP turns into Surprise Twins!
@LuckyAngel07 I've been doing a bit of research they will hopefully be able to tell if they are mono/mono, mono/di, or di/di.
In other words do they share an amniotic sac and/or placenta. If they share both (mono/mono) or just a placenta (mono/di) that means they are definitely identical. If they share nothing (di/di) it could mean they are identical or fraternal.
The real reason to find out what is going on is because there are risks that are present with mono/mono or mono/di that aren't there with Di/di- not to figure out if they are identical or fraternal- but that would be nice
Does that make sense?

Makes lots of sense! I never knew those things about twins in utero. Hope the u/s goes well!
TTC since July 2012
BFP #1: 11/9/13; spontaneous m/c at 6w2d, 11/25/13
How are you feeling? Good! More tired than usual, but good.
What are you craving? Nothing
What is grossing you out? DS's poopie diapers have made me gag more than once
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? No
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments? I had an u/s and my second beta draw last Wed. Betas went from 750 on April 2 to over 8000 on April 9, and the u/s showed a gest sac and yolk sac. From LMP I was 6 weeks on April 9, but in reality I was more like 5.5w from O date. I have another u/s on Monday to hopefully confirm viability, date the pregnancy and see a little heart beat
Have you / will you found out the sex? Not planning to this time
Any names picked out? Nope
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes? Nada
Anything else you would like to add or PIP?
Already Mommies:
LOs Age(s): 2yrs 1 month
Best part of your week? All the new words he's come up with in the last week. And when he ordered my coffee order to himself in the backseat while I was pulling through the drivethrough. All I could here was, "mmm, coffee, yep, mmm, hot chocolate, yep, mmm, timbit yep." So cute it made em laugh.
Worst part of your week? Trip to the childrens hospital emerg after he fell out of the car and hit his head on the driveway and proceeded to fall asleep. After a two hour wait with a bunch of sick kids, he's fine and now I know what to look for in the future.
Milestones? I think we are getting closer to converting him to a toddler bed. He is trying to climb into his crib, but I haven't seen him trying to climb out yet...I'm really procrastinating on this one....

How are you feeling? Good. Did tons of walking this weekend, but felt good overall.
What are you craving? Yogurt with granola and fruit.. at least it's something healthy...

Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? On our trip this weekend we bought a stuffed Tigger for the baby's room. It was marked down and matches our Winnie the Pooh theme.

Have you / will you found out the sex? Boy
Any names picked out? Still talking at the drawing board. Aiden is out (DH changed is mind). We're still considering Johnathan Emanuel and possibly Alexander John. I'm leaning towards Johnathan Emanuel because he'll have the same initials as DH.
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes? It's painted and empty. DH is installing the flooring tomorrow! Then we'll pay off our layaway and setup the furniture.
Anything else you would like to add or PIP? DH and I went on our babymoon this weekend to Williamsburg. We had a great time and it was so nice to get away .
