Everything looks just right, two heartbeats and the little ones had grown like weeds.
But, it was also the last time I'll see Dr. Hope and his staff for a while. They deemed us ready to move on to an OB.
I'll be honest, I'm scared.
Over the last two years, they've become family.
As we got ready to leave, Nurse Peppy gave us a green bag. The same type of bag she gave me with my foll.is.tim pen and all the IVF paperwork in... Only this time, there was a little red box inside. When I pulled it out, and opened it up to find an ornament. It was "Thing 1" and "Thing 2" from Dr. Seuss! M. and I laughed because just the day before he had started to refer to them as "Thing 1" and "2"...LOL.
Here's a peek at 8 weeks, 3 days...
YAY!!! Grow babies!
ReplyDeleteI love your story:-) Grow, babies, grow!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!! Grow babies!
ReplyDeleteWoot!!!! So glad to hear that everything looks great!! That is so thoughtful of your nurse :)
ReplyDeleteI am still so excited for you. eeeccckkkkk.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on graduating from the R.E.! Bittersweet, but it marks a big occasion, I think.
ReplyDeleteAnd those are some mighty cute eight week old babies!
Happy graduation and yeah, I get it. I was sooooooo scared to get out of the hands of people who were so kind to me. I love the ornament. I may have to steal that idea! Many hugs.
ReplyDeleteGlad things are goign well. You're little ones are looking great!! I struggled with leaving the RE's office last week and haven't seen them nearly as long as you've seen yours. What a very cute and thoughtful gift.
ReplyDeleteWoot!
ReplyDeleteTransitioning from an RE to an OB/GYn is tough. Because you go from being a big fish in a little pond, to a little d
fish in a big pond. I definitely missed my RE.
Oh, that's so exciting. Congratulations on your graduation! I can imagine that it must be hard to transition, but it's so great that you get to move on to normalcy! :)
ReplyDeleteYay! I'm SOOO so excited for you! It's sort of a selfishly excited because I'm glad to have you has a twin pregnancy buddy!
ReplyDeleteI was scared to leave my RE too, and still am a little. I feel like I really went though a lot with my small center. But I'm very grateful to finally be able to move on.
How sweet that she gave you ornaments! So glad you had a great appointment.
ReplyDeleteThe ornament is so sweet!
ReplyDeleteI was really scared to leave the RE too, even though we hadn't been with them for long they understood what we'd been through and were so understanding and respectful of our fears. It was honestly the best experience I've ever had with any doctor or doctor's office as a whole.
What a sweet gift though.
ReplyDeleteI think they will always be "family" to you, but you have graduated and it is time to make a new family. Hell, I give my OB a Christmas card every year because of how close I got with her during my pregnancy. Good luck!
They are beautiful. Grow!
ReplyDeleteYou will be fine. And if you need anything, know I am an email away.
Hugs to you, M, Miss O and The babies.
Congrats on graduating...hope you go into caring and expert hands...
ReplyDeleteWell, I had loved the movie....Thing 1 and Thing 2....LOLOL!
Happy Graduation! They are looking so sweet=)
