I was laying in bed nursing Gia in the middle of the night and thought of you and the babies!!!  How is the pregnancy coming along? How are you feeling? Please post to let me know how are you making out. How far along are you now? Let me know if you are having a baby shower. Hugs,

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.

Sorry, it's taken so long to get back to you.  That is very sweet you were thinking about me and the babies. I can't stop thinking about Gia and your situation. I am so very sorry this has happen to you. I just know everything will be ok. I will continue with my prayers. How is Gia feeling now? Are you still moving on time? I really wish we had kept in contact more. You are a sweet woman and are so thoughtful and caring to everyone.  I am shy and have a hard time making friends and had really hoped to make a lot of good friends here coming to the board. Everyone I have met online and in person have been very nice to me, I just can't seem to ever be able to take it to the next step, in the friendship. Anyway, I just wanted you to know how special I think you are and are a great friend to everyone and you will be missed when you move. On to the babies. I am now 20 weeks. I am having three little boys. I am feeling good, but starting to really feel the extra weight around the middle quite a bit. I have gained 10 pounds and I am measuring like I am 34 weeks pregnant.  I am seeing high risks doctors every week for u/s and have from 12 weeks, due to having three and the due to the fact I am having identical twins. I was diagnosed three weeks ago with having the early stages of something called Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome. My twins share a placenta and some of the blood vessels. One twins is taking too much blood and fluid and the other not getting enough. They thought I was going to have to have fetal surgery two weeks ago to try and fix this, but then things stabilized so, now it's a wait and see every week to see if surgery is going to happen. The surgery carries many risks and they are not sure how many, if any of the babies will survive with it. If it works, I still might go into pre term labor and not likely that any would survive this early or not at least without major brain damage.  I am really trying to stay positive and believe everything will be ok. I have to hold on to that every week, that things will improve or at least stay the same. I have been trying to have a baby since I was married 23 years ago and these little miracles have got to be ok.  I am mostly laying around and trying to get in enough nutrients for them. I am drinking three protein shakes a day and that helps on that part.  My family is trying to get a shower together for me. I think we are going to try and do it July 26, if I am not in the hospital. It has been overwhelming thinking about all that we need for three babies. I have been trying to register at a few different stores, mostly online and when I do go into the stores, my head starts swimming! lol I feel like there are too many choices and which is the best thing to get. My niece has been helping me decide what I might need. Anyway, I am sorry I have rambled on so long. Thanks again for thinking about us. You are a sweetie.  Hugs,  Wanda

Wanda, Wow you are definitely have your hands full. But I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers that the twins do good and you will not need any surgery.   Do everything your doctor tells you and rest a lot.  Lay on your left side and make sure to drink your fluids.   Please know that even if we don't see eachother it is ok.  I am here for you.  It's ok to be shy but know you can always count on me if the need arises. I might be moving to WV but my heart is hear with my OH family in MD.  I will be around. Shoot me an email with the links of your registries ok.  I am glad your niece is helping you with that.  It does get a bit overwhelming and especially when it is times 3.    You did no ramble I love to hear about your updates and please let us know how you are making out.  I promise to keep tabs on you since you are too shy to post it on the MD forum.  :-) Big hugs and prayers for your precious miracles. Everything will work out you deserve these blessings from God.   Love always,

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.
Those that mind don't matter, and those that matter don't mind.

Wanda - Don't worry, I know Cira feels, as we all do, that even if we're not in constant touch with each other, we're all friends!!! Personally, every single time I read that you're having 3 babies, I have to pick myself up from the floor.  Either that or restrain myself from jumping out a window!!!  Good Lord, woman!!!  You are da bomb!!! I will add my prayers to Cira's that everything and everyone turns out okay, and that the babies bake until they're done!!!  It just wouldn't do to have babies that are raw in the middle!!!  LOL!!! Please post as much as you feel up to it.  Let us know if you need anything.  Me?  After reading your post, I need a drink!!!!!!!!!  LOL!!! Hugs, Tia
