A plan

Our babies measured 7 weeks and 1 day.  In 2 weeks, at the 9 week mark, we will have another ultra sound to check on them.

Dr. Shomento is lining this up for us in Great Falls.  She wants to us to go to a perinatologist...a specialist for multiples and IVF pregnancies.

It's a relief that we don't have to make decisions like who to see on our own.

I'm waiting today to hear from the new doctor's office to schedule the ultra sound.  Yet another thing to be excited about and nervous...ultra sound number 2.

Dr. Shomento said that at 20 or 22 weeks we will have a high tech very detailed ultra sound, something that seemed the same, but also sort of different than normal, since we are an IVF pregnancy with twins.

In the midst of thinking about another doctor and doctor's office I have high hopes for friendly and caring people.  And I have comfort knowing that Dr. Shomento and Julia are only a phone call away.

On a side note...I've been having some pain in my uterus area off and on, ever since retrieval back in March...

I'll admit it had me worried at times.  But guess what we also saw in the ultra sound Friday?

My left ovary is still giant...it is shooting out hormones like crazy at this point...it is the one that during retrieval was poked and prodded the most because it was most full of eggs...

No running for me yet.  It's nothing to be worried about, it's just doing it's thing after a cycle of stimulation.  But Dr. Shomento did say that if the other clinic says I have ovarian cancer when they see it to tell them that I DO NOT.  Just call Dr. Shomento.
