Rama, I wanna hear about your family/friends reactions? I love hearing that. And how are you doing?
I'm not going to include internet/TCF friends because, well, y'all can see those reactions around, hahaha.
We were wearing shirts that said Player 1 for MrRama and Player 2 with a little Player 3 in the lower right for me.
FIL - Figured it out after SIL's reaction. Quiet, obviously holding back emotions, gave me a super long and tight hug. SIL - Once she noticed the Player 3, she squealed, "OHMYGOD"ed, hugged me, and cried a little. Friend - Was literally in the middle of a breath when she noticed and went dead silent. Then she gave us looks and did the choppy, "Is that? so you? are you?" thing. She wouldn't say it, so we had to let her off the hook and just nod and say yes. Her reaction was very surprised and kind of muted, which I'm not surprised about because of somewhat recent triggery reasons. But she seems happy for us. Friend's husband - "Ooohhhhh, congratulations, you guys." He's just a very lowkey guy.
We tell my mom (and hopefully dad) tomorrow. I'm still debating on whether I want to tell my siblings in person in two weeks or tomorrow with my mom.

Soooo fun!!! Are they aware of the multiples?
No. We are not telling people this yet and maybe not until they're born.

Oooooo! You're family will be like 'you're so big you look like you're carrying twins' and you can be like 'how rude' and have so much fun with people.

Oh my god - I was not understanding the shirts!
I thought you were saying Player 1, Player 2 and used a little Player 3 to indicate that there were three babies, but you weren't sure about the third.

Sac 3 was a handful of days behind and neither a fetal pole nor a yolk sac were visible, so she's calling it a lost pregnancy.
Both MrRama and I are having a hard time with this, lots of mixed feelings, the whole nine yards of what you'd expect. We're so, so happy for our twins. But we'll both feel like there was always supposed to be a third little Rama running around with them and that hurts. It's a very bittersweet place we're in right now.
So sorry about your loss, but how exciting that you're having twins! Edited to add because my fingers are too quick: Twice as much to help you get through the grieving, and then twice as much to love and snuggle.

I am so sorry, It must be so hard. Take your time to heal, and know you are allowed to mourn the loss even though you have 2 others growing strong. Lots of hugs lady!

I'm so sorry for your loss, Rama. Congratulations on two healthy babies. They are so lucky because their sibling's awesomeness will transfer into them and they will just be extra, extra awesome.

Today? Awful. I woke up feeling like I was run over by a bus. :( As soon as my SIL wakes up, I think I'm going to go home because I thought powering through work would be fine. Silly me. x_x

Sorry, Rama! Coke is your friend. Or whatever works.
