Default My 1st U/S was today

1st ultrasound was today (appt was at 12:30 but RE only saw me at around 1:45...I was freaking out by then).....and he saw..........

3 Yolk Sacs! AHHHHHHH!!

So now I wait and pray for these babies. I'm going back next Friday. He saw some fluid in the uterus and said it looked like either early signs or a little bit (can't remember what he said) of hyperstimulation so he told me to really take it easy and watch for any signs like decreased urine output, weight gain, etc. And he recommended a glass of V8 (yuck) everyday.

I'm actually headed out to a wake right now for my great aunt. My parents are there and I'm going to show them the u/s pic..they are going to have a heart attack!

Cindy
