Everything looked great at my u/s today. Ed went with me so he could see (with me for the first time) our two little ones with heartbeats thumping away! I just love those little flickers :)
I was told, however, that twins bring an increased risk for GD. So my RE said to limit my carbs and ice cream. WHAT?!?!?! That is seriously all I want to eat these days. So he said I could have them for breakfast and lunch, but try to avoid them for dinner. And I don't care what anyone says, I'm taking that to mean I can have a sundae for breakfast :D
My nausea is still out of control, so I got my script for Zofran. My RE said it was scary that I asked for it by name. I told him I've been around that block before and I know what I need. LOL. He also told me that a generic PNV wouldn't do since I'm having twins and need double the Folic Acid. So now I'm buying the "good" stuff at $65 a month. Ouch. Hopefully we'll hit our deductible soon and they'll be covered for the rest of my pregnancy since our insurance year ends July 31.
My list of meds I'm currently on:
Estradiol - 2x daily
Zofran - 3x daily (drop to 2x when needed)
PIO - AM shot
PNV - at bedtime
Folic Acid - 2x daily
Lovenox - AM shot
Baby aspirin - at bedtime
Colace - 1-3x daily as needed.
Here is today's picture (sorry it's a little dark and hard to see). One of you ladies once said that they look like diamond rings at this point, and I think you're so right! They're pretty symmetrical a this point, which I'm told is a good thing.

Hi there... I have been a reader of your blog for quite a while now... since you were trying to get pregnant with your son. Congratulations on your new pregnancy! I wish you a healthy pregnancy with two healthy babies being brought into this world. I read today about your medications, and also read that you need to meet your deductible for your PNV's. I know that Lovenox is very expensive, and I have eight 100mg syringes left over from when my husband had to use them for a pulmonary embolism in July. Please let me know if you need them or would like them. I tried calling the famous CCRM to donate them, but they never returned my call.
Dessert for breakfast sounds good to me. Plus if you use strawberry topping, it's practically a fruit salad.
Congratulations on your two beautiful heartbeats. What wonderful news.
