5w, 1d
DH has been informed. All went as well as it could I suppose. He didn't get home from work until after 10. He sat down on the couch to tell me about what he was up to all day. I interrupted him and the conversation went something like this:
Me: Do you want a beer?
Him: What did you break?
Me: Do you want a beer?
Him: How many kids are in there?
Me: Do you want a beer?
He got his beer and I urged him to tell me about his day. He said he didn't think he could then, that he really only had one thing on his mind. But he went on anyway. Then he said it was my turn to talk. I said I had a present for him. I held up one big stuffed bear. He started laughing because he knew why I bought it. Then I said, "Only problem is, this bear comes with a friend," and I held up the second bear. "Oh no." Then he went on to say, "If I knew that was going to happen, I would have shot half my load outside the cup." This is the story I get to tell our children.
We talked a bit. DH voiced his concern that with two of them in there it causes the risk of losing both. I definitely agree with him but I am not concerned enough about it to pursue some other option. The conversation didn't last too long since I was so tired.
Felt completely awful today from the moment I woke up until about 3:00. Finally feeling better but now I am just so tired. I was depressed most of the day. Probably a combination of shock, hormones, and just not feeling well at all. Once I started feeling better and could act more human, my spirits definitely were raised.
I called the high risk doctor office today. I have an appointment with them on the 28th, the Monday after we get back from vacation. I almost busted up laughing when the lady asked for the reason for the appointment and I said, "I have a unicornuate uterus and am carrying twins." I don't know which part of that statement is more bizarre.
I've been trying to decide what to do about my OB. I really really love my current ob/gyn. However, he is located near my old house an hour away and doesn't deliver at any hospitals near here. The hospital to go to if there are issues is the one where my RE is located, but that is still 45 minutes away if there is absolutely no traffic. My current ob/gyn is not affiliated with that hospital. Since I am due in the dead of winter, that was just one more factor to consider with trying to travel to a hospital to deliver. In the end I decided to give a call to the first ob/gyn I ever saw when I was 18 because she had such a wonderful bedside manner. She is affiliated with the hospital that is 10 minutes from me, a hospital I have faith in and I know provides a lot of individual care. I will meet with a nurse from her office on the 29th, day after my high risk appointment, to exchange health information and have some blood work done. Then the following week I will have an appointment with the OB.
Hopefully my mom doesn't have much going on for the next 9 months because it is looking like I will be needing her help watching the kids for lots of upcoming appointments.
I saw my friend J tonight and got to tell her that everything was good, times two. She was really excited. When she got pregnant with her son, she was initially pregnant with twins. She ended up miscarrying one of them but she did have some good information about carrying twins in the first trimester.
Off to get some rest.
