Hey girls! It's Hayden's mom!

I had to get a new account on here so this is Jess, Hayden's mom :-)

Since I came out in the FB group I thought I'd come out on here and post the link to my belly pics :-)
I am almost 13 weeks pregnant with twins (EDD is Nov 2nd but I definitely expect them in October.)! I have my NT scan on Tuesday at the high risk doctor so I will post some u/s pics if I get some good ones. I don't have any yet :-(

I've been feeling ok, just really tired and uncomfortable already which scares me because I'm not even half way through lol

The twins were looking good the last 2 scans. I had the first one at 6w5d (well I thought I was 7w3d) both babies measured the same.. I had another scan a couple weeks later and both babies measured 8w 2 days which was only a few days off! the HB were 159-169 which is awesome..

I am nervous about my NT scan on Tuesday because I'm still scared of vanishing twin but I'm trying to be positive.

If you don't remember all my drama last year, I am divorcing still and my ex has a new gf also so we are decently civil right now. which is all I need. I am happy now and that's all i'm focusing on, I'm over people judging me so I'm living in my now and it's been good. :-)

anyway, here's the link to my pics :-)

WOW, im so jealous of you having twins

Congrats!!! I hope things go well for you!

Alternamom · #8 April 24th, 2011, 04:43 PM

haha thanks ladies!! I'm really nervous about my u/s on tuesday because I am just worried something will be wrong with one or something.. I am a lot more worried this time around than I was with Hayden..

right now the twins seem identical. Which is funny because twins run in my family so I have the ability to drop 2 eggs but I got the 1 in 10k change of an egg split haha we laugh about that a lot. We aren't 100% though that they are identical but we are hoping to get more answers on the high risk doc tuesday. all this twin stuff is very interesting lol and new!

I'll keep you all update though :-)

congratulations! can we get more info on your new boyfriend?

Alternamom · #12 April 26th, 2011, 05:35 AM

lol he's amazing :-) He makes me happy.. He's a lot different than I'm used to but that's a good thing! He has a 2.5 year old son as well so it's fun when we get the boys together. I'm sure I'll disclose more in the near future ;-) lol

Cari24 · #13 April 26th, 2011, 06:20 AM

Congrats on the babies. Glad you stopped in to give us the news!

Are you and the boyfriend living together now? Any wedding plans in the works?? (not AT ALL saying a marriage is "necessary" just getting the updates since we haven't heard from you in a while). How is your family with everything now? I know they were giving you a hard time a while back.

MoonMom · #14 April 26th, 2011, 07:02 AM

yeah girl, you gotta keep us updated!! We love new material LOL

Alternamom · #15 April 26th, 2011, 07:35 AM

lol Septmeber, NO WEDDING any time soon! haha I am not in a hurry to get married again.. He wants to but he knows how I feel about it now since I just went through it. we are working on living together, we stay with eachother whenever we can right now and we are going to look at a house tomorrow :-) so hopefully it works out for us!
my parents weren't too thrilled at first but they are ok now. They just wish I would have been more careful for a while lol and It's not my fault I have twins, well it is but i didn't ask for it lol I think everyone is anxious to have 2 little twins running around haha and his parents are excited about it so thats good too.

my parents like him so I'm happy about that, they are still giving me a hard time about the vaccines for Hayden but have backed off a lot. things are getting easier.. although harder at the same time lol I know things will work out though so I'm just staying positive for everyone.

OH ETA: I guess I should explain my other ticker, the loss one. Yep I got pregnant in January and m/c at exactly 5 weeks.. it was hard because I hadn't experienced it before. We then tried to prevent but had a mishap and got pregnant again before my next AF showed! and lo and behold I have not only one but 2! It was a total shock! lol
