[mrsf0831]

Morning ladies tgif thought id get this started. I'll answer my own questions later as I gotta get ready for work.

1. What twin types do you have? Ie: sexs and twins, triplets etc.

2. What state are you from?

3. fave tv show?

4. What was you and your s.o reaction to hearing your having more than 1 baby ?

[SassyPants150]

Thanks mrsf0831! Hope everyone has a great weekend!


1. What twin types do you have? Ie: sexes and twins, triplets etc. Boy/Girl...obviously Fraternal

2. What state are you from? South Carolina, although I'm technically part of the Charlotte, NC metro area so sometimes I fib

3. fave tv show? Not a huge TV buff but I do love the Chicago Fire/PD series and Criminal Minds

4. What was you and your s.o reaction to hearing your having more than 1 baby ? Total shock! We went completely silent because we just didn't know what to say. We had been joking about it because I was so bloated. I'm pretty sure we said "Wow" a lot over the next few days. Some days we still don't know what we want to do since it changes our house and car plans but it's starting to sink in.

1. What twin types do you have? Ie: sexs and twins, triplets etc.
I'm 19+2 with g/g twins. The doctors have been saying they're fraternal the whole time, but we'll see if they look alike when they come out!

2. What state are you from?
New York, in the 'burbs of the city, born and raised (I did go upstate for college, but then I came back)

3. fave tv show?
Of all time? The original Law & Order. That's currently airing? Probably Forever (which makes me sad, because the ratings are low and it's probably going to get canceled after this one season)

4. What was you and your s.o reaction to hearing your having more than 1 baby ?
I was shocked, though managed to amend my "Holy shit!" to a "Holy crap!" DH, who is actually a twin himself, started arguing with the tech that twins are supposed to skip a generation, but then he adjusted pretty quickly because after all, this is his normal.

[twofold]

1. What twin types do you have? B/G twins

2. What state are you from? Canada

3. fave tv show? The 100! Also, still in love with Dexter.

4. What was you and your s.o reaction to hearing your having more than 1 baby ? We did IVF and put 2 embryos back in, so we were relieved that the process actually worked and were thrilled both stuck!

[mrsf0831]

1. What twin types do you have? Ie: sexs and twins, triplets etc.
I am expecting twin boys

2. What state are you from? Good ole CT, can't wait to relocate

3. fave tv show? Dh says my shows suck but I have a lot of faves. I will go with, law and order SVU

4. What was you and your s.o reaction to hearing your having more than 1 baby ? I just covered my face and couldn't stop laughing. Dh was just in shock

[wamom]

1. What twin types do you have? Ie: sexs and twins, triplets etc. : B/G twins due in march!

2. What state are you from? Washington, obviously.

3. fave tv show? Friends, hands down!

4. What was you and your s.o reaction to hearing your having more than 1 baby ? Complete shock and panic. It was kind of a fluke we even got pregnant and we have two other kids close in age. So finding out our 3 under 4 is going to be 4 under 4 has us both overwhelmed at times.

Nc is where DH and I want to relocate to, we started our search forjobs after getting married in aug 13. Dh ended up w a promotion so we decided to get that under his belt to add to his resume , so after these babies reach a year we'll try and jump ship to the carolinas.

3. fave tv show?
Doctor Who

4. What was you and your s.o reaction to hearing your having more than 1 baby ?
Relief! My blood work came back higher than any of my other 4 pregnancies, so we thought something might be up. We had a lot of follicles. So, we went in for the scan chanting, "Please not more than three, please not more than three..." and when we saw two sacs, we were overwhelmingly relieved. Then the worry over losing one, or both, set in (given my recurrent loss history).

[SassyPants150]

mrsf0831 We lived in Matthews for a year before deciding to cross the border. We got so much more house for our money due to the taxes. Gas is also about 25 cents per gallon cheaper too! We aren't leaving here

2. What state are you from? Tennessee

4. What was you and your s.o reaction to hearing your having more than 1 baby ? I was a little freaked out, but excited. My husband just said, like it was no big deal, "I told you so." Jackass.

[mymorningcoffee]

Hey everyone.
1. I have twin girls. They are 3.5.
2. I'm from MA.
3. My favorite TV show is definitely game of thrones. I can't wait until it comes back.
2. My husband almost fainted. I am really glad he was sitting when we saw the us. I knew what I was looking at immediately, but he didn't. I old him there were two and he said, "two what?" When I told him he blanched and almost fell over. He got over it quickly, but it was definitely a shock.

He just got that look of extreme surprise on his face and smiled so big. Still melts my heart to think of him just grinning away like an idiot  When we got outside we both were laughing a lot and he was yelling "We're having twins!" It was really cute.

We knew there was a chance (thanks clomid!) but it was a very slim chance (especially with DH's poor post wash numbers). When we went in for our 1st u/s and they said it was twins, DH and I just started laughing.

"Oh honey, I never joke about that."

Some practices don't do 1st tri ultrasounds. My first u/s with DD was my A/S.

[kimstargazer1986]

1. almost 13 week old twin boys. We suspect identical

2. Kansas

3. Doctor Who

4. We were both in shock. I kept laughing. DH didn't quite understand when they said 2 sacs. He then asked if they were conjoined. We immediately had to tell people and we hadn't told anyone we were expecting.

[iluvthe15th]

Hey everyonr just moved over here!

1) I have ID twin girls that are 3yo and a singleton girl who is 5mos

2) MA

3) Walking dead and amazing race.

4) I was actually expecting it which was so weird. The nurses all commented I was be calmest they'd ever seen someone after finding out they were having twins. I just always thought I'd have twins. So weird.

[ntdane]

1. What twin types do you have? Ie: sexs and twins, triplets etc.
11 month b/g twins

2. What state are you from?
Missouri is where I live now, but I'm a Wisconsin girl at heart b

3. fave tv show?
So You Think You Can Dance.

4. What was you and your s.o reaction to hearing your having more than 1 baby ?
I was at the NT scan by myself at 13 weeks. I saw two babies right as the wand was on my belly. I must have looked shocked because the tech said "So....you didn't know you were having twins?" Um, no. I cried a little, mostly happy but a little freaked out. I emailed DH and said we had to meet for lunch so he could see u/s pics. He looked through them, then finally said he could never really tell what he was looking at. I showed him the first pic where there was an A and a B, one for each baby because there were two. His reaction? "We need a new car!" Lol.

Oh hey!

We're near Olympia. I felt the need to participate in the WA love. We're here temporarily, but I've lived here before (during high school while my father was stationed here). We'll be back eventually as well. I love the south Puget Sound area. You can't beat the people, the culture, and the lifestyle. I could do without the rain at times though.

And...Go Seahawks.
