Expecting the unexpected...?
I posted here in the years 2003-2005 when I was TTC and suffered 4 MC's,
but eventually gave birth to healthy twins after clomid treatment. They are now 3yo. With another 6yo we thought things were complete, but we never really made a decision one way or the other. Now it seems nature has decided for us: this morning I had a positive HPT. Just one unprotected event did it, I feel extremely stupid and am still getting used to the idea. Although I would very much welcome another child, I have to see this through the first trimester before believing in it. Tomorrow I will see my doctor and have blood testing done. I'll ask him for an u/s in week 7 to check for heartbeat. I -- mom to DS (6yo) mom to DS and DD (3yo) guardian of DH (age classified) and one tiny pea in the making |

I know what you mean about this strange stage though as I also had 4 MC's before having my DD (now 2yo) - it's an odd feeling, you want to get excited, but you don't quite dare... I really hope all goes well for you *hugs* Lucy x |

Congratulations!! That is so exciting! I have another on-line friend with the same situation and she is having her little boy on Monday For some reason I'm having a hard time remembering who you are but I know it will come to me, lol. I've been here since my oldest and he is 9yo now. I have twins too - they are 2.5yo. They are very, very, VERY, TWO, hee hee. -- Nikki, mama to Hunter, Luke, Ben, Brock. |

As I recall you got the news of the twins just about when I was moving back from the US to Europe. You may recall my real name: Ilse. But then, if you don't, that's OK :-) Just wanted to wish you strenght and endurance with the twins at this age. It will get better! |

It came to me last night This is a really cute, fun, yet hard age. They are not talking yet so that adds a little extra meltdown here and there, lol. I'm having to learn new ways of dealing since what works with one does not work with two! -- Nikki |

I'm having to learn new ways of dealing since what works with one does not work with two! Once they start to talk, it gets a little better. You will find they are imitating you and correcting each other. Do you notice them communicating in their own language? Or perhaps with just body language? I noticed at that age that the twins would swap toys at some unnoticable signal, or one would fetch a toy for the other without a clear question. Have you come to the point that they gang up on you? I had them both sitting down in front of the supermarket, with me carrying two bags of groceries... But it makes for great anecdotes :-) I -- mom to DS (6yo) mom to DS and DD (3yo) guardian of DH (age classified) and one tiny pea in the making |

I don't really see/hear a language but they do communicate. It is fun to watch them with their games because you are right - they do have some kind of common plan going that I can't figure out, lol.

But it makes for great anecdotes :-) lalalalalal :fingers-in-ears: No - not ganging up on me yet. I have older boys (7 and 9) and they can be a great help at times. -- Nikki, mama to 4 boys. |
