We got to the center today at about 11:30am. Waited until 1:00pm to get my IViG IV. The problem is we have to wait for an available room, as the center is not huge and all the rooms were full after operations/transfers, whatever.
When they finally called us, Super Nice Nurse Girl number 2 came in. (This is the one I mentioned before who asked me if I wanted twins, she only did my IV once before). She is so sweet, very young and I am guessing kind of new at her job? Anyway, she inserts the IV catheter into my hand and man it was not right. She noticed right away and asked Super S to hold it while she left the room. LOL, we were like ok....
She came back, removed it and I had a bug bump on my hand. I asked her for Super Nice Nurse Girl number 1 and told her no hard feelings. Super Nice Nurse Girl number 1, my usual one, came right in and got the job done.
After I was finished I called Dr. K told him I was downstairs and just finished the IViG. He said come on up.
Went to his office and got called right away despite a packed waiting room.
He told me to come next Wednesday for another IViG session and then an ultrasound in 2 weeks from today, approx, March 10th but will confirm date with me next week.
He asked me to get on the table today. He wanted to do a quick ultrasound...
We saw TWO sacs..... no heartbeats yet, and a bit unclear, but defintely two dark sacs could be seen. He gave me a DVD but I can't figure out how to capture a still photo of it to post.
He also mentioned that I am 4 weeks, 3 days pregnant. I asked him how, as online it says 5 weeks today based on retrieval date and 5 day transfer date? He whipped out this little spinning wheel thing, and said something, I did not catch what he said well, but he did say yes that I was only 4 weeks, 3 days and that the ultrasound he saw today reflected that as well. I will clarify next week, I want to be sure.
So two sacs for now, lets hope they both stick around and beat nicely for us in a few weeks. Maybe twins... how amazing could this be!
*** Oh if someone knows, I have seen many of your cool sigs at end of your posts, how can I insert a cool signature at the end of my posts, please share if its not too hard. Also, anyone feeling charitable or knows someone who is, I would LOVE to redo my blog design. Nothing fancy, keeping the same header but maybe widening the middle and adding three columns instead of two. Doesn't hurt to ask does it? xoxoxoxo
mylivesignature.com is where you can create a signature to add to your blog posts/emails etc. there are a ton of color/font combinations. hope that helps!
ReplyDeleteOoohhh two sacks!!!! AHHHH how exciting! I'm SO SO SO happy for you, love!
ReplyDelete*HUGS*

ReplyDeleteDouble YAY!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so super excited for you guys!!!!
Woot Woot!!
ReplyDeleteWoohooo!
ReplyDeleteAs for capturing a still shot, do you know how to capture screen shots on your computer. If so, put the DVD in and play it. When it gets to the moment you want, pause it, and then capture the screen shot. In my case, I use my photo editing program to capture the screen shots because then they open in the photo editing program and I can resize the pic and save it right away.
If this doesn't make sense, email me and I'll see if I can do a better job explaining it.
Twins! :)

ReplyDeletexox
Wow, twins, yay you, congrats.
ReplyDeletexx
OMG 2 babies!! Wishing for one... should be wishing for two!!
ReplyDeletecongrats on the twins! that was my guess based on your numbers compard to ones i got recently :)
ReplyDeleteI too think your dr has your DD mixed up cause you had your first bt at 17dpo didn't you? well 17 dpo is 4.3wks. But don't stress about the sac sizes cause they vary and even being just a millimetre off with the ultrasound cursor when doing the measurments can make a big difference to the dates. Your numbers are great so the bubs are great!!
Oh and an easy way to get stills is, if you have windows movie maker just drag and drop the video you got into the timeline like you would if you were making a movie or editing it then play it to find the preview of the image you want, pause it and go up to the menu above and select 'tools', and then 'take picture from preview' and your done :)
Twins!!! Fantastic news!!! and seeing already the sacs I definitely agree with you that you are 5 weeks and not 4+3. I wonder how he calculates it... Love, Fran
ReplyDeleteSo, so happy for you!!!! Two babies would be great. Very exciting!!!
