13w4d: Combined results

I got my combined NT results today. They say they don't place "much" in the blood test results with twins, but that, combined with my scan, both babies have a less than 1 in 10,000 risk of any of the trisomies. Woohoo! The MFM nurse said, "basically, you do have a slight age risk (I'm 31), but everything else looks so wonderful that we're going to treat this pregnancy like we would a 20-year-old's" Awesome news, even though I know it's just odds.

Unfortunately, the HG corner I thought I'd turned, well, not so much. I suppose if throwing up 6 times a day is what it takes to have healthy babies, it's a small price to pay. (Well, that and the IVF fees, of course...)

It was around 14 - 15 weeks when my friend stopped barfing multiple times a day when pregnant with her twins.

Hopefully it is just a few more days for you too.
