Twins

Hi, I dont know if this will help anyone, but i am in the same situation. I have been on the pill for years. I came off it about 9 months ago and have been trying ever since, and nothing has happened. I have tried the methods people always say to use- certain times of the month, propping myself up afterwards, and lots of other random things, but nothing seems to work. At first I kept thinking every month that "this would be the month" but nothing has happened yet. I am currently late on my period and hope that it might be the right time. I have 4 year old twins and I was not trying for them. I was on the pill and was really happy to find out I was expecting twins, although they were not planned. But with them, I had no idea I was pregnant and one day I walked passed the tests and just got one, and took it. It was positive. I do not know what made me buy one, I didnt even think i could be pregnant. The next day I had terribly sore breasts, and the following week morning sickness kicked in. So every one is different with 1st signs :)

Its so important to keep your pre-natal appointmen

After two miscarriages and uterus surgery I thank g-d was able to get pregnant again. At my 34rth week regular check up with my OB, I was diagnosed with preeclampsia. I had protein in my urine, high blood pressure, swelling in my feet, hands.... I was send to the hopspital immediately for monitoring. The doctors there monitored me overnight and released me with strict instructions to see my OB the vey next day. When I went to the visit, my symptoms had already worsened and I was sent back to the hospital to determine the next step. Since I was still in my 34rth week, my doctor had advised me that he wanted to wait as long as he could to give the baby a chance to develop further before they delivered me. The policy they stood by was as long as the benefits outweighed the possibility of danger to mother and child. Withing 1 day my conditioned had worsened and I developed Toxemia and the HELLP syndrome. I had an emergency c-section right away. Thankfully my son and I were just fine.
I am sharing my story so that everyone knows how important it is to keep every prenatal appointment. If I had skipped that appointment, I cannot imagine what might of happened. I would have never know I had this condition, it would have rapidly gone down hill, I would have ended up seizing...and who knows what would have happened.

Not everything happens for the worst.

I was having trouble getting pregnant in the previous years then when i finally did i ended up having a miscarrage due to stress after that i tried again for anouther five years and finally ended up gatting pregant. I was 8 weeks when the doctor said the baby had lost it's heart beat. I was so upset. After that I thought it was just not ment to be so I just gave up. Well about 4 months later I ended up getting pregnant and I am due in 9 days. I am having a boy!! So not evertthing happens for the worst it happens for a reason. Good Luck to anyone who is trying to have a baby.

Hydrops & Downs

Hi my wife was 24 weeks pregnant and we lost our little angel. All tests up and till the 24 weeks was fine, no Downs or abnomalities were detected. On 24 weeks we discovered during our normal 24 weeks check up that our child had Hydrops and the Dr's performed more test and we discovered that our little bot had Downs as well with little chance of making it to 30 weeks. Total devastation. We miss you boy and Mommy and Daddy love you dearly. This happened 1 week ago.
