    After more than 18 months of TTC and 1 MC, I got pregnant through IVF/ICSI. Last Friday I had my second ultrasound and my doctor didn't think this pregnancy would be viable because the image was fuzzy compared to the first ultrasound. I was so upset, I can't even being to explain (...but I'm sure many of you understand).

    Fast forward 5 days and I've got an increased beta HCG and a new ultrasound. Conclusion? Twins! Apparently last week the two embryos were sort of on top of each other so they looked fuzzy. This time I saw 2 distinct embryos and I knew what it meant even before my doctor opened his mouth!

    Very happy, much relieved and sooooo tired. I slept 10 hours last night and I'm still having trouble keeping my eyes open.

    Congrats!!

    And I remember being that tired. Exhaustion was my worst symptom. I never threw up, but I swear those first weeks I could have slept 16 hours a day!

    Just back from a business trip so I'm catching up now.

    Thanks to all of you for your best wishes. It's so nice to have found a community of people who understand how special twins are.

    I'm super happy to be having twins and can't wait to tell everyone (just starting week 9 today). So far, so good...no nausea at all! Just tired and lots of trips to the bathroom.
