PG - 6 Weeks 1 Day - Twins!

Well the DBTs are now gone for another week! I'll have my next ultrasound next Monday.

But the great news is that there are two babies developing. One seems to have a smaller sac than the other, but they were both measuring at 6 weeks 1 day, which is right on schedule. We also saw a flicker of a heartbeat on both of them!!!! So my restrictions are lifted as long as I take it carefully.

So we feel like we won the IF lottery right now. I'll keep eating healthy and taking care of myself to do everything to keep the DBTs away. Plus I have a lot to do at work and to get ready for the holidays. That will keep me busy.

And totally off topic, please keep the Mumbai terrorist attack victims in your prayers. I have several work collegues in Mumbai. I was even trying to hire someone for my team there most of this year. I really wish that the world could be a more peaceful place.

Congrats from a lurker!!!! Try not to concentrate on the DBT's...for folks who have suffered from IF, they realize how fragile pregnancy is and that makes it hard to shake (I know it..i had them up through month 9!). Just think positive thoughts and ENJOY this! Yeah! have you thought of names?

Heather, what happy, happy, happy news! I will be thinking of you and that all goes according to your dreams.

Thanks for supporting my blog. More importantly, it seems every one of my friends is currently in the midst of the realities of pregnancy, fertility and raising children. It means so much to be able to read one person's adventure about the same.

Bouncing Back From Depression

I've been pretty depressed lately. Monday I hit my all time low, which coincidentally was also my dad's birthday. Needless to say I'm sure I'm on his not favorite child list as I forgot to call him I was so depressed. This whole two mortgage thing with no contract in site is really frustrating. Especially when lots of other houses on our block are selling. Our house is really very lovely, just no pool. It has a really flat backyard perfect for putting a pool in though. Anyway, on Monday, Mom called to make sure I didn't forget to call Dad and tell me she read my blog over the weekend and sent me an email about it. Sorry, Mom, I still have yet to check my emails to see what you had to say. Mom told me I needed to bury a statue of St. Joseph in the yard to get it to sell quicker. Wish I knew that sooner. I was going to wait for her to mail me hers, but yesterday I got really mad at myself and wanted to do something to improve my situation, so I found the nea

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni
