6w1d

I had an ultrasound today to check for viability.  I was so scared.  I was afraid that we weren't going to see anything.  That there would be an empty sac.  That if there WAS something there, that we wouldn't see a heartbeat.  I haven't been allowing myself to get too excited.

I've still be throwing up daily.  Every morning, sometimes after lunch, and for the second day in a row now - also after dinner.  I kept telling myself that if I was getting sick then it meant SOMETHING was happening.  But it wouldn't always help.  I was still afraid.

So today was the day.  I was nervous and scared.  My friend Alicia was there (because she works there).  I put J on skype on my phone so he could see what was going on.

And guess what?  Not only was there a heartbeat...but there were two heartbeats.  Yes, twins...

    I told my husband how you put J on skype and went to see about the baby and that it was twins- and I started crying happy tears for you! Congrats again!!!

    Holy moly! Congrats! How do you feel about twins? I'd guess you wouldn't be too surprised since multiples are more common with fertility stuff. I'm so glad J got to "be there". More details on your thoughts please!!

    I absolutely love your updates. I seriously need a daily dose! I think i check your blog WAY too much for an update :) But, even without the daily updates, i am so so excited for you guys. I love that we're pregnant at the same time. The next several weeks are going to be tough and really test you in terms of your physical health. Get lots of rest. That is so awesome to see that ultrasound!!! Good thing they only put two eggs in there :) I am so excited. When does J get home?
