Yep, it's twins! We got to see the heartbeats for each of them, about 100 bpm or so. It varied, above and below that mark. It was awesome. One of the fetuses (as my Dr. called it) was a little harder to measure and measured a day or two behind, but said it was no big deal and that they looked great and the heartbeats were strong. So that was all good.
Last Thursday, right after I puked up everything I had eaten all day, I felt a gush and started bleeding. It was just the one gush, and then I spotted for a few days, each day getting less and less. I had almost no spotting as I went in to the ultrasound. After the ultrasound, I felt another gush, just the once, and am now slightly spotting. I had small clots each time, with the initial gush. My Dr. did not seem concerned at all, and just said to call if it gets heavy etc. I don't have much cramping at all. I am really trying to hope for the best!
I go back in for another ultrasound at 8 weeks, or 13 more long days.
Congratulations! I spotted for the first 9 weeks of pg. I'm hoping your spotting resolves soon.... Ick on having to wait 13 more days for a second ultrasound. Will your doctor not get you in sooner.
ReplyDeleteYay!

is also pregnant with twins post-FET and has had a lot of spotting along the way, so you aren't alone, but it still really stinks and I hope it settles down soon so you can enjoy growing your duo!

ReplyDeleteYay for twins!
(Emily over at "A Hope and A Wish..." (http://emilymorrisfoster.blogspot.com) is about 3 weeks ahead of you with a post-FET twin pregnancy and she has had a lot of bleeding/spotting as well, so you aren't alone. That said, I hope you don't see any more blood!
Twins, wow! Beautiful pics!!! I hope the spotting stops soon.
ReplyDeleteYay twins!!!! With you high betas I had a feeling there were two buns in there!!! :)

ReplyDeletehow wonderful! I am very very very happy for you.
and the bleeding? gosh darn, that just sucks and is scary and I hope it stops. I know it is "common" but that does not help when it is happening to you.
