we finally got a new scanner last night, so i was able to scan the ultrasound pictures. there’s not much to see yet, but here they are….
i guess they’re the two dark spots in the middle **shrug**?
and here they are solo
baby a
baby b
so, there you have it, hopefully they will both still be there at my next ultrasound appt on the 8th. the fact that i haven’t had any morning sickness, especially with twins, is really making me nervous, especially since i have read some things that suggest women who don’t have morning sickness are more likely to miscarry. of course i’ve also read that’s not true and some women who have no morning sickness at all deliver healthy babies, but i still can’t help but be scared shitless. i’m sorry i haven’t been the best iclwer this month, i’m just very distracted, but i really appreciate all the comments i’ve been getting, thank-you for all the congratulations!

congrats on your twins!! i wouldn’t worry about the lack of morning sickness. i had about two weeks total of sickness in my entire first trimester, and a friend of mine had absolutely no morning sickness with either of her pregnancies, and she has a healthy toddler and is due with her second in august.

Great pics! Wow, amazing isn’t it? I can understand that this can be terribly nerver wracking and morning sickness for many is a sign that all things are a go. But, it’s not always the case for everyone.
Good luck to you. Hopefully you keep yourself occupied and distracted till the 8th! Will be thinking of you,

Congrats again. What is the dark spot to the right of the screen in the picture with both babies on the screen?
It’s scary to to dare to dream when we’ve been hurt so many times so I understand your fears. Your fears stem from love for those two beings. I hope you can find a way to mediate or something else to help you find peace during this anxiety filled time. *hugs*

i don’t know what that other dark spot is, some of my inardns i guess, it’s not in my uterus so it’s definitely not a third.

Such beautiful babies!
Sooo exciting! You’re fears are so understandable, it’s ok to be worried. As time passes I hope you’ll be able to really enjoy your pregnancy!

Katery….morning sickness would most likely kick in, in about a week or so! The pics are beautiful. Good Luck.
My SIL (singleton pregnancy) too did not have any morning sickness, and her daughter is pretty and so healthy!
Don’t worry! Morning Sickness is not a necessary barometer of how the pregnancy is going to go!
Sweetie, I am sooooo happy for you!

first up… congrats! they are beautiful little blobs!
second… I know it’s ridiculous to tell you not to worry. Instead I will say… try to enjoy this time. Even if the worst does happen, then you will still have some happy memories. (I wish I had heeded my own advice on my second go round).

I am thinking of you.

honestly Kate please don’t worry about the morning sickness – my sister had none at all, I think once she got up too fast and said she felt a little queasy but generally she was fine, disgustingly healthy really and she had a beautiful baby boy.
Your blobs are adorable, try not to worry too much (I know it’s hard) today, right now, you’re pregnant – how awesome is that?

Congrats! The deal with nausea is if you don’t get it, you’re lucky! Having or not having morning sickness doesn’t mean anything. Can’t wait to hear more news after your next ultrasound!

yes, i know that having morning sickness doesn’t necessarily mean anything, but when you have been through as much as i have you hope for a text book pregnancy, morning sickness and all.
