We're PREGNANT!!!!

I'm sitting at my desk at home staring at two baby shower invitations for the same day.  One is for my cousin in Oakdale and the other for a good friend in San Jose.  Sadly, I won't be able to make both but soon I hope there'll be one for me.

The HCG numbers are high. REALLY HIGH.  1800 at 13dp3dt.  Dr says there is a strong possibility of twins.  If all three stuck I'm going to be so huge I'll need a wheelchair for the last 4 months. Haha.  And if one of them split??!!!  Don't panic, don't panic...

For now, I'm so grateful and shocked and happy and terrified.  HA. We still have many milestones to get past before we're out of the woods but it's a fantastic start.

According to this calculator  I'm 4 weeks pregnant. I know that sounds weird, but doctors calculate the # of weeks based on your last menstrual cycle. So even though they've only been inside me a little less than 2 weeks I am already 4 weeks along.

If there is 1 in there, due date will be around July, 26, 2015.  If there are multiples it will be sooner.

Have a glass of champagne or wine for me! It will be a while before I can :)

So happy for you, Kerie! I'm here for you all the way!! Single, twin, or more, the child(ren) will be so loved and so fortunate to have you two as parents! It's been a long time and struggle but it will be worth it!

PS: that last post was me (Judi/Mom/potential Grandma!) (Grandmom? Big Momma? Granny? Nana? Bama? The choice is up to you, but I'm thinking...I'm thinking...) Love you ALL!

Judi, how about just grandma Moss? We never had nicknames for grandparents in my family. It feels weird to me but we'll wait and see what the kid(s) like :)

As long as it's not "Grandmother". That's too stiff and formal.
