It's been a while since I updated here, but now that I'm stuck in the hospital, I figured it'd be a good time! The bad thing is that it won't be very easy to put up any of my more recent pictures.
I am fine, the babeis are fine, but I am stuck in bed so that they stay stuck in my belly. I'm at 32 weeks and a few days, and we have some definite goals about how long we want them to stay in, but it's really just a waiting game.
On Thursday of last week, I took a half-day so I could go for my routine ultrasound and ob appointments. I had been told previously that my cervix had shortened and to try to rest as much as possible. I tried to! I guess I didn't rest enough :) Thursday at the ultrasound I could tell something was wrong when the tech left me in the room, dressed and ready to go, but told me to sit and she'd be right back. She came back with a wheelchair and said she'd wheel me to the OB appointment. I was going to be about 2 hours early for that appointment, but she said "oh they're going to fit you in, they know you're coming."
Basically I was freaking out, pretty much knowing that I wasn't going back to work. I didn't know I wouldn't be going back home though!
When I got to the doctor's, they took me before they took anyone else who was waiting, and immediately checked my cervix to see if I was dilated. Indeed I was, so they sent me to the hospital in Hagerstown. They let me drive myself, but told me to go straight there. That's what I did. I called Jonathan, my mom, and my school on the way to let them know what was going on. They admitted me and got me in a room with a gown and everything. Hooked me up to a bunch of stuff and started giving me magnesium to stop labor.
Washington County Hospital does not take babies who are under 32 weeks. I was 31 weeks annd 5 days, and they are twins, so they didn't want to risk letting me deliver. They decided I'd be going somewhere else. It just took an hour or so for them to decide whether I was getting flown to Johns Hopkins, or ambulanced to Frederick. I'm really wishing I'd said "take me to Frederick!" right now. I'm stuck in Baltimore 2 hours away from home now.
The helicopter SUCKED, it was the worst 30 minutes of my life. Especially since I had no idea where I was going, and I knew when I got there, Jonathan wouldn't be with me.
Anyway, I got here, they put me in Labor and Delivery, and I was all by myself. It took Jonathan a good 4-5 hours to get everything from home and finally get here. My parents got here at the same time. Jonathan and my mom stayed the night with me that first night. It was horrible. The beds there in Labor and Delivery aren't really made for a comfortable sleep I don't think, and I was hooked up to monitors and everything. Ug. I ended up being 5cm dilated, which has apparently not changed.
Luckliy, since things haven't progressed any farther, on Friday they moved me over here to the bedrest area. It's more comfortable and they only hook me up to monitors every now and then. I'm also now allowed to get up to use the bathroom and shower if I want to. Hopefully it remains this way and things don't get riskier.
I will be here for a while I think, but it's still really hard to tell. Basically everyone says I could deliver any time, but things are looking good, so it could be weeks. I just never expected this to happen and it's killing me to be so far away from everyone. I've had people visiting though, so I'm lucky. I just hate not having Jonathan here all the time. I think he's also really worried that I'll go into labor fast and he won't get here in time.
Anyway, I'm here now for good it seems. There is a slight chance that we could do really well and either go back to Hagerstown to the hospital, or go home to be on strict bedrest, but it's not likely I don't think. It's also possible that once the babies are born, they'll have to be HERE in the NICU for a while, but do well and be able to be transported back to Hagerstown also. I wish they would just take me to Hagerstown now. I want Jonathan to be able to come see me every day. It would be easier for everyone. This place is so hard to find and get to I think. Of course I flew into the roof, but from what I hear, that's what is going on. Everyone is getting lost or stuck in traffic. It also costs money to park here and the garage is forever away from where I am in the hospital.
I'm not too bored yet. I have lots to do to keep me busy. I'm sure it won't last forever, but that's okay. I'll figure something out when I get to the breaking point. There's tons of stuff to do that I don't WANT to do, but that could still keep me busy :)
I'll update soon. I doubt I'll have a chance to update if things change though!

Third trimester
Here we are sitting at 27 weeks. The very beginning of the third trimester. I haven't updated this as much as I would have liked, but I think once a month is going to be okay :)
I've still been feeling relatively well. My back hurts, my belly is stretching, and my legs KILL sometimes... but my energy level is okay and I haven't had an upset tummy or many headaches. I had a little cold for a week or so, and that was terrible, but it's gone now!
Jonathan and I have started on the nursery over the past few days. We painted the walls and put together one crib. This week we're going to finish putting the furniture together. My baby shower from my family is this weekend, so now we'll have a place to put everything. Adele from Valley ES is also throwing me a shower (soooo nice of her) and that's in November.
Walls painted, crib number 1 assembled
I can't believe it's already autumn, and already time for baby showers! I guess time is flying even though I feel like I've been pregnant my whole life. My belly is probably the size of a regular belly close to full-term. It's scary how I don't fit in maternity clothes anymore!
My belly at 22 weeks
My belly at 24 weeks
My belly at 27 weeks (we missed 26!)
I still get to feel the babies kicking all the time. I guess it's a little more regular now... they're on a schedule. I think Baby Boy is kicking me a lot more, but Baby Girl is in there kicking and punching too. A few times, I've been able to feel a little foot with my hand and push back on it. The little foot will then kick me back or move to the side. It's like a little game!
For a while, Baby Girl was head-up, Baby Boy was head-down. Our last ultrasound showed two head-down babies. I went to the doctor yesterday and Baby Girl is flipped back to head-up. The doctor said not to worry though, they'll have enough room to get to the right position up until 34 weeks. So I guess we'll hope for Baby Girl to go back to head-down. We'll see :)

Yesterday, the doctor also told me that for twins, the average delivery happens at 35 weeks. Of course, that's just average... I could go the full 40. 35 weeks is the beginning of December though, so I think my goal is to be finished with the nursery and be ready to leave school before Thanksgiving. That way I'm prepared before the holidays, even if I still go until January 11th. The doctor yesterday said she doesn't see any reason to tell me to be prepared for bed rest, but it's also hard to tell what could happen in the coming weeks.
I'm getting really excited to see the babies and hold the babies. I'm also getting really nervous about everything that's going to come along with it. Mostly financial stuff, but also the responsibility of two human lives. The excitement outweighs all that though :)

It's a.......
.......boy AND a girl :) Saturday was our "anatomy scan" at the imaging center. We got to see two of each body part (and I guess sometimes four) except for those little body parts between the legs. Only one of those.
Baby Boy!
His profile
His arm and leg (with a little elbow and a little knee)
Baby Girl!
Her face with her hand in front of it
Her little legs and feet (this is my favorite!)
The past few weeks have been really exciting because I'm feeling the babies kick me all day long. Jonathan's gotten to feel them too, which is great because it's so much easier to see this as a REAL THING now. It was real before, but now I have constant tangible reminders all day long.
Everyone is healthy and growing perfectly. Even me. I've gained 16 pounds and I don't care about sharing that. I weigh about 150. I'm sure I have a long way to go in that aspect, but that's okay with me. I feel pretty good for being pregnant! I can't complain because I know some women are just miserable all day, everyday, and I can't say that about myself.
I am starting to see the OB every 2 weeks instead of every 4, which is a pain, but also nice. I get to keep updated on how the pregnancy is progressing. I'll also get to see my little ones every two weeks because they do an ultrasound just to find the heartbeats each time. It's too hard to find both heartbeats distinctly with the doppler they use on one baby. Most people don't get an ultrasound every two weeks, and I'm even going to get to go for the longer ones every 4 weeks at the imaging center too. That's where they print the pictures out for you. Saturday we got 11 pictures of each baby. Feet and hands and spines and brains :)
Jonathan and I also registered at Target too. I did most of the picking-out, but it's exciting to think about all the fun stuff that goes in the nursery!
Overall, things are going well. School makes me exhausted, but I have a good husband to take care of me and wait on me when I get home and need to sit down and relax. He feeds me too, and that's been really important!! I've been having back pain and heartburn and all that, but it's nothing I can't handle. I don't sleep all that great, but I do get sleep. I'm feeling pretty good and starting to like being pregnant! I like my maternity clothes and I love getting to talk to people about the babies. It's exciting :)

Getting kicked
Tomorrow, Jonathan and I are leaving for Ocean City for a quick 4-day trip with his family.
Last week we had an appointment at 16 weeks (July 27th.) It was really uneventful, but we did get to see the babies for a minute or so on the monitor. Just long enough to check heartbeats.
It's really cool to be expecting twins, because apparently I get to have more ultrasounds than the average singleton pregnancy! It's great to see how much they change in just a few weeks.
It's also amazing how much I'VE changed in just a few weeks. As of Monday the 28th of July, I'd gained 5 pounds. Yikes! I guess that's good, but it freaked me out. It wasn't until then that I realized how different I really do look! I have to wear mostly all maternity shirts now, and I'm slowly growing out of my regular pants as well.
The most EXCITING news from the past few weeks has been the fact that I get to feel my babies kicking me all throughout the day, every day. At first I just felt little flutters and taps. Now it is a lot stronger, and I've even felt kicks from the outside with my hand. Jonathan hasn't felt it yet, so he doesn't believe me. It's funny because there will be kicks in two different places, and his hand will always be on the opposite side.
I have another doctor's appointment at 20 weeks on August 25th and I'll be going to that one alone. Then, that Saturday, the 29th, we have our BIG ultrasound! We get to spend an hour or so looking at all the little body parts... eye sockets, hands, feet, spines... all that good stuff. Of course, if the peanuts are cooperating, we'll know who is a boy and who is a girl :) That'll be really exciting. Jonathan will be there with me.
Things are going great. Especially since I don't really have to wait in anguish and anxiety between each appointment. Now the little ones tell me they are there and they are healthy by giving me little kicks and punches :)
This is me at 16 weeks (July 26th):

Ultrasound #1
On Wednesday, Jonathan and I went to the Women's Imaging center to have our first detailed ultrasound. We got to watch our two little ones on the screen for at least 30 minutes! It was so great. Everything looks good and we even have an educated guess on gender!
Both babies are 3 oz. and about 7.5 cm in length. I guess that's good! Both are measuring right about where they should for 13 weeks and 3 days. Heartbeats were normal, I think 154 and 146... something like that. I wish I'd had her write that down for me.
Apparently, Baby A looks very DIFFERENT from Baby B between the legs... Baby A's area looking "pronounced". So the technician made an educated guess that we will soon have one baby boy and one baby girl. Nothing could make me happier :) I guess we will find out in a few weeks if she was right.
On a side-note, my ovaries are beautiful? I didn't know that was relevant, but apparently it is.
I was so happy to get the pictures to keep also. We got 12 photos, 6 of each little one. Different little poses also, so we can see different parts of them developed. Saw ribs and spines and heads and brains. It was great. Some stuff, I couldn't see... but she said it was there, so that's fine by me. Jonathan was beside himself. I kind of knew what to expect, but I think he was amazed. He also wasn't feeling his greatest that day. He had something stuck in his eye, and we actually went to the Urgent Care place on our way out of the medical center so he could see a doctor. They had to dig it out with a needle :( He wasn't very happy about that, but at least he got the thing out!
I showed off my belly last night and even got two belly rubs. Made me feel weird, but whatever. It's the only time people are going to rub my belly, so why not let them if they feel so compelled? I don't care. Haha. We got to show off our first baby photos as well, which is fun for us. The other people probably don't care that much, but that's okay. Some people we know didn't know I was pregnant yet. They could tell by my belly last night, though. It's sticking out there haha.
We have another appointment on July 27th... a Monday. I'll be 16 weeks. I don't know that they'll do another ultrasound then to see if we can find out the genders, but I'm still excited to get back to the doctor. I think it reassures me and helps me feel like this is REAL. What also helps is looking at baby stuff online ;)

First post
I should have started this a long time ago... that way the big news I got on Monday would look on here the way it felt to me. Like a big surprise!
I'm 12 weeks pregnant, due on January 11th.
So here's the story, from the beginning. This could get kind of long!
In March, Jonathan and I started a conversation (and actually, he started it) about having a baby. We ended up saying, "Well, let's just see what happens." As in, we're not TRYING, but we're not NOT trying.
About 4 weeks later, I knew I was pregnant. I woke up one morning feeling different in many ways. It wouldn't have been obvious to anyone else, but something was different! I had one pregnancy test left from a different experience in December, so I used it that Monday morning (May 4th.) It imediately showed positive. I was home alone and not going to see Jonathan until that evening, so I kept it to myself all day. It was soooo hard to not text him or call him, but I didn't! I had to tell him in person.
That night, we were going to my Nanny W's in Gaithersburg for my mom's birthday party. We got in my car to leave the house, drove for a few miles, and I said "so I have something to show you..." I pulled out the stick and gave it to him. Of course, he had no idea what it meant by looking at it, but he knew what was going on. The ride to my grandmother's was quiet and akward. I don't think either of us were expecting it to happen so fast!
So a week or so goes by, we'd been to Indiana for his brother's wedding... came home, celebrated Mother's Day and got back to the swing of things. We called and told our parents and my grandparents May 11th or so.
I went to see the Nurse on May 18th, but nothing exciting happened there. I knew I had to wait till June 29th to have an exam and an ultrasound, so it was a lot of nausea and exhaustion and waiting for the rest of May and almost all of June.
Finally, Monday, June 29th came (two days ago) and I woke up a nervous wreck with butterflies and almost wanting to puke. The morning sickness had been gone for a few days, but suddenly drifted back into my life starting that morning. Jonathan took a half day so he could go with me. We arrived at 2:45 and didn't have to wait too long.
The nurse weighed me... 135.3 lbs. Just about one pound more than when this whole thing started. The doctor came in, did my exam (while poor Jonathan had to sit by and witness) and then used the doppler to find the heartbeat. There it was! Loud and clear and thumping away. I was soooo relieved. I was told to get dressed so we could get over to the ultrasound room.
We sat in the chairs, got the screen ready, and as soon as the wand touched my belly with that cold gel, all the relief vanished and I was overcome with dizziness and fear. There were not just one, but TWO beating hearts on that monitor. Jonathan and I saw them with our own eyes. The ultrasound didn't last very long, but the doctor has ordered for us to go for a "diagnostic" ultrasound next Wednesday because I have twins growing inside me.
We talked with the doctor in his office for a few more minutes, but basically I don't remember that conversation.
Now that two days have passed, our family and friends have heard the news, and I'm not so dazed anymore, things are starting to become clear to me. We have a lot to do, a lot to plan for... but we're both so excited. Overwhelmed and scared, but excited and happy. We know that this is going to be the scariest, hardest thing either of us has ever done... but we both know we can do it. Thankfully, we have a supportive family and we have each other.
Now I just need to get through my personal feelings about this, make it right with myself, pray about it... and we'll be good.
