11 Weeks 2 days- Lots of updates!

It's been a while since my last post. A lot of things have happened in the last couple of weeks, but I've been so tired that I couldn't manage to put this post together.

Let's start by week!

Week 8

- Went to the OB and got a pap smear. Let me tell you, I was FREAKING OUT!!! I've never seen so much blood coming out of there due to a pap smear. I didn't even know they did that to pregnant women. The Dr. said I would have a little spotting but this was major bleeding!!! 3 days later it stopped.

- Got my Doppler in the mail! I found the heartbeats right away, or so I thought ( More details on week 11) I hear "them" everyday!!

- Lots of Nausea

- Went for an U/S at the IVF clinic, everything was perfect. Was told to stop the aspirin.


Week 9

- Hear heartbeats everyday! It makes me feel secure that everything is Ok.

- Had my last appointment at the IVF clinic, had an U/S and saw the twins moving a lot!! Amazing

- Lots of Nausea. Almost vomited while brushing my teeth.




Week 10

- Hear the Heartbeats everyday!! Loving it!
- Lots of Nausea
- A horrible headache had to take 2 tylenol,Disgusting didn't want to but the headache lasted all day and It was very strong.
- No U/S this week :( I was getting used to it.
- First vomit while brushing my teeth. Only once, but everyday I gag while brushing. Disgusting.

Week 11

- Tuesday had an appointment at the OB. Dr came in and said let's see if we can hear the heartbeats. I told him we started listening at 7 weeks. He seemed surprised. He started looking but he couldn't find the heartbeats. I told them they were a little lower (Dr. me) he found a heartbeat and said is this what you've been listening to? I said yes. He said well that's your heartbeat!!!! OMG!!!! I cant believe I've been listening to my heart all this time!!! At the end he couldn't find the heartbeats and he said it was ok, it was still soon. But I started to freak out. He said to come back on thursday for an U/S so I can relax. Yeah right! how can I wait till Thursday!!!
I called everywhere possible to see if I could just get an U/S without the Dr's prescription. I went to Urgent care, but they didn't do U/S that was weird.
At the end I found this place that does 3D and 4D U/S, made an appointment and when I finally got there the whole plaza didn't have electricity!!! Really???? We're in the USA!!!!! I can't believe this is happening.
Had to go home that day with no U/S. I couldn't sleep.
Next day at 10 am I was the 1st appointment at the 3D and 4D U/S place. The image was not clear, she said I was full of gas!! But we could see the babies moving!!! That was amazing!! they were moving so much!!!! I was so relieved!!!

Today I went to the OB for my U/S appointment. I didn't tell them I already had one yesterday. Didn't want to look like a freak. So we saw our babies again today! Moving a lot. Heartbeats 161 and 167.

Baby A

Baby B


- Now I also have Sciatica pain. The nausea is getting better. The breakout is still there. An the OB told me I cant color my hair till 24 weeks. what????? I have lots of white hair. Is killing me. I feel so ugly!!!
I have my first trimester scan on Monday so I get to see the babies again!!! I'll keep you guys posted!!

  1. Congratulations! The doppler story made me laugh, I can totally see myself doing that! I love seeing all the different US pics and I'm so jealous that your clinic let you have one weekly! My IVF clinic only has me set up for one at 7 weeks and one at 10 weeks... its going to be torture!
