Ultrasound update

[judecorp]

So, the ultrasound.

Yes, there were two distinctly separate gestational sacs, one on top of the other in the uterus. Each had a yolk sac inside. There were no fetal poles visible, and no heartbeats to be seen. They are confident that it is just too soon and that they will indeed be there.

I go in for another ultrasound a week from Thursday. There will hopefully be little babies with heartbeats in them at that time.

Anything can still happen, but at this point, it looks like we may never get out of debt! :)

Yay for embryos!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

I can't wait until we can actually SEE one! Hopefully next week!

In honor of the second frankenbaby I recommend adding a Boobaby tag. ;-) (as in Boo Berry, not Boob-aby.. crap.. I guess its funnier in my head)

Count Kidula?

[anitsirk.livejournal.com]

are you going crazy until then? i think i would be.
i ultrasounded myself at work when i was barely pregnant with annabelle and i didn't see anything but a sac either.

um...2? oh.my.gosh.

take care, mama.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

I am really trying to just be chill about everything. There's nothing I can do either way, so I am just going to keep enjoying being pregnant until someone tells me otherwise.

I can't wait to see the little heartbeat(s), though!

And, umm, Kristina? If having 2 freaks you out and you just popped out a 10.11 lb kid at home with no drugs...? *dies*

[angelhsent.livejournal.com]

yay two is good very very good

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Thank you! We are excited!

[estrange.livejournal.com]

Wow, twins! Well hopefully they will see at least one heartbeat in there soon. This pregnancy I was pregnant with twins too, did you know that?

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Yes, I remember that they saw a second sac on your first u/s!

I can't wait until we can see some heartbeat action!

[afullmoon.livejournal.com]

Yea what was yours and jen reaction? I think I might have fainted.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Well, Jen knew before I did because she was watching the u/s screen and I was laying on the table. But the tech was NOT talking at all, just saying things like, "I see a sac but don't see a fetus, blah blah blah, too early," but she didn't say anything about TWO until she turned the screen to face me!

I am still in shock! We were kind of giddy, though.

OH! I thought so! YAY!

[rainbow-slinky.livejournal.com]

Go babies!!!!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Keep those fingers crossed!

[rainbow-slinky.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, hiddentask is going to add you and wants you to add her back! :)

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Okay, no problem. :)

[buddhafly4224.livejournal.com]

heeeeeeeee!!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

*dies*

[violacat.livejournal.com]

Wow! That's pretty much as coherent as I am right now. Wow!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Yeah, me too. :)

Hey, let's get together before we move, okay?

[mayna.livejournal.com]

TWINS!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THe jude drama just gets better and better. I need some popcorn for all the excitement. ;-)

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Ha ha ha! Pass that popcorn, willya?

Keep your fingers crossed for next Thursday!

[indigodove.livejournal.com]

That's good news...still sending good thoughts your way that all goes well.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. Keep them coming!

[prunesnprisms.livejournal.com]

Wow. That's highly interesting news. yay!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

We are cautiously thrilled and scared all at the same time.

[meglett.livejournal.com]

i'm not an MD, RN or u/s tech, but i too feel confident that it's just too early to see poles and heartbeats.....but FX for 10ish days from now. TWO. WHOA.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the doctor was pretty confident that it was just too early, also. He basically said that we could sit tight and expect twins. (He also said a bunch of other condescending crap that I am SOOOO not even going to think about. Asshat.)

TWO.

[sassywoman.livejournal.com]

YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am happy for you beyond belief! Holy cow! You're going to be a Momma times two!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

I do not know how we are going to do it, but by god, we WILL.

Keep your fingers crossed for heartbeats. Your prayers keep working!

[scirocco.livejournal.com]

You'll really be in debt AFTER the babies are here, if you think NOW is bad. On the up side, all your friends have lots of little kids clothing now, and it'll soon be SURPLUS.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Ha ha ha, totally. I mean, that was my point... we'll NEVER get Jen's student loans paid. So let's just forget it! :)

[violane.livejournal.com]

Wow, that is very cool (and slightly insane)! Congrats, and I'll be thinking good thoughts for the next u/s!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the good thoughts. *hug*

[hazelpeach.livejournal.com]

Two? Dos? As in 1, 2? Wow...

That's amazing...

::gets a handful of the popcorn that's passing a'round:: I'd be staying a'tune'd until the commerical breaks are over.

Wow. WOWZA... Damn.

BTW, are you going to find out the sex before the baby(ies) are born? Just curious!!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Yes, we will find out the sex(es). Not sure if we will share or keep it to ourselves, but we will probably share. We just don't want to get a ton of gendered stuff.

[kjames.livejournal.com]

when? WHEN will you get to see the actual babies? i forget how soon!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Well, we have another ultrasound next Thursday (one week from today!) and there SHOULD be beating hearts in there at that time. That will be just about 7 weeks.

[colorbars.livejournal.com]

He he. Glad you're happy. :)

When I mentioned to badgerthorazine that you're pregnant she said "That little thing? Pregnant?" I think I'll need to bring smelling salts for when she finds out about two. {g}

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Little? I am SO not little! I'm actually quite bulky!

[cappucinogrrl.livejournal.com]

I'll be thinking even more happy baby thoughts for you. xo.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Hopefully there will be heartbeats next week. Real heartbeats in my belly!

[spacecadetjen.livejournal.com]

Getting out of debt is highly overrated.

And I'm so excited for you! :-)

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Ha! I dream of being out of debt and someday being able to, you know, retire. :)

[mermil.livejournal.com]

Holy Crap. Congratulations! My brother announced he was having twins by calling me and saying in a hollow voice, "You. Have. to. Come. Home." He also held his head in his hands a lot. ;) But twins are very thrilling and when you panic, just remember-- they can amuse EACH OTHER. Insta-Family!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think the idea of having twin KIDS is pretty awesome. It's the whole twin BABIES thing that is terrifying!!

[skiadaimonos.livejournal.com]
