But...I knew the chances were long, but this blows!<br /><br />But hooray for viability… you're what 26-27 weeks? I know it's obviously not what anyone hopes for, but it's still an achievement. And it's good to hear that Jate is still doing well. I'm thoroughly impressed with your ability to wait on the gender still. Designing a gender neutral nursery was actually a lot more fun than I thought, so maybe I could do it, but the stress of needing two names would probably make me cave!<br /><br />Sending hugs!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11657607481465480125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808830305872285145.post-33262740495023277112015-04-08T12:30:20.352-07:002015-04-08T12:30:20.352-07:00wow.

I took a huge risk traveling/working out of state during my pregnancy and am glad the girls didn't decide to show up earlier than they did. Looking back, it probably wasn't the best idea to be away from home until 29 weeks with twins. <br />Also, I'm secretly hoping the phlebotomist has a boy. Because I'm mean like that.<br />JenShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00056681492831041470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808830305872285145.post-17911375428270608042015-04-07T17:26:52.132-07:002015-04-07T17:26:52.132-07:00Still praying for you, my friend.

While an ultrasound always feels like it will be comforting I think it then just adds more stress to some degree. This is a great reminder to just be thankful if you don't need more.

I know, I always partly hope they'll get what they think they don't want, so that they learn to be a little flexible, and partly hope that they get what they want, so that the poor kid doesn't have to face any possible thoughts of not being as loved.<br /><br />I'm definitely sorry to hear about the possible accreta, but the way you described it before, I doubt any of us would be surprised. I guess I'm glad it's small? I mean, yes, definitely, if the size of it makes a difference to your possible outcomes. I don't know, but you sound relatively optimistic about it, so I will be, too. :.) In your last post, you mentioned dealing with an accreta with a nearly mandatory hysterectomy--is that true even if it's a small one? You'd also talked about feeling mixed on the possibility of losing your uterus, even though you didn't plan on more kids, which I definitely understand. We can't bring ourselves to use permanent birth control, almost because it's just so galling to have spent the money and gotten the surgery to correct existing problems and then have surgery and spend money to basically have them put back again. (We're definitely taking very reliable measures, though. Not chancing it.) Well, I know if you did decide to try with your other embryos and a surrogate, you could find one in, like, a day, just posting here!emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10445546756521231621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808830305872285145.post-14759388052558109682015-04-03T12:58:03.831-07:002015-04-03T12:58:03.831-07:00Argh, I'm sorry that you're still at consi...Argh, I'm sorry that you're still at considerable risk for accreta. That's scary.<br />I can totally understand not traveling - we went to Hawaii at the end of my first trimester, and then I basically didn't leave the city until SB was born. Because, as you said, I couldn't live with the guilt.<br />But yay for Jate growing as s/he should!Conceptionally Challengedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07600863125990400886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808830305872285145.post-83426650621814969972015-04-03T09:51:34.637-07:002015-04-03T09:51:34.637-07:00Aw, I hate that you continue to have to deal with ...Aw, I hate that you continue to have to deal with stress and real and potential complications in the pregnancy, and more testing and more testing. You attitude is amazing though; you come across as so calm and resolute. (Reading this I feel like I was a complete wimp.)

Shouldn't we just get a pass after all the trouble we go through to get pregnant in the first place? Yeah, I know that's not how it works, but it should. Hopefully spring break will come and go without any bleeding or further complications. I'm glad Baby Jate is doing well though!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16507432917936364757noreply@blogger.com
