Here is my facebook entry....
How it all went down: Today I had my
first ob appt with my new doctor (last week my appt was with his nurse).
Riley met me there. We spent a lot of time going over my labs and
talking about my lack of a thyroid, pituitary tumor, and high blood
pressure. I had to change ob’s because mine literally delivered her
last
baby two weeks ago. She is doing more cosmetic and only gyn care now. So I
was really
nervous about meeting the new
doctor but he seems really nice and I will trust him to take on my
care. We talked about my betas. My first one was 2910 and my second one
five days later was 17, 575. He said first let’s make sure through
ultrasound that the baby is viable and then we will go from there. He
took me first down to ultrasound and then would bring Riley and Ben down
to be with me. That is when I started crying and I knew he was a good
doctor when he grabbed my hand and said, “It’s all going to be ok” and
didn’t leave my side through the entire sonogram. Riley and Ben were
there but kinda of up against the wall because the room was SMALL! Riley
was saying, “Baby it’s a God thing, it’s ok.” When my sono popped up on
the big tv screen I INSTANTLY saw the two sacks and said, “OMG RILEY WE
ARE HAVING TWINS.” My doctor said, “Yes ma’am you sure are.” That is
when the water works broke even more and Riley is going “What, what,
OMG, YES, we did it!” Ben says, “Mommy are you ok, are you sick?”
because I was crying so hard. Both babies had their own sacks, fetal
poles and we heard both their heart beats. I am a week behind what we
though. So the babies are 6 weeks and 3 days. Riley is just beyond
himself excited and I think he has texted everyone in his phone. My
neighbor texted me and said he did a dance in the driveway! Lol. As soon
as the appt was over I called my brother and my SIL to tell them. Then
we drove to Riley’s parents to show them (they had to pick up the older
B’s since our appt ran over). We asked the kids how they would feel
about two babies and they didn’t really understand. We showed them the
pictures and the boys were like, ok and ran off. Brit looked star
struck. My Inlaws couldn’t believe it but they are so excited. I can’t
believe it myself. Shocked is not even the right word. I need a day to
wrap my brain around this. God is good. I learned a very powerful
lesson. He ALWAYS provides and he always answers prayers just in HIS
timing. Oh and after ALL this time seeing doctors and fertility
specialists (back in the day) I found out I have a heart shaped uterus.
Wow, interesting! Which took my already high risk pregnancy to extra
extra whole new level. :)
Oh. My. I am soooo happy for you!
