Here you go mommies - a different kind of survey for a change - it's all about your first born! Just copy and paste it in a new note for yourself! Make sure you tag me when you post it!
Let's see how much you remember!
1. WAS YOUR FIRST PREGNANCY PLANNED?
Yes, very much so...our second invitro
2. WERE YOU MARRIED AT THE TIME?
yes
3. WHAT WERE YOUR REACTIONS?
Very excited and anxious since we thought I was miscarrying and found out that I was carrying twins~
4. WAS ABORTION AN OPTION FOR YOU?
no
5. HOW OLD WERE YOU?
34
6. HOW DID YOU FIND OUT YOU WERE PREGNANT?
PAS (peed on a stick)....Twice, before confirming it at the Doctor's office
7. WHO DID YOU TELL FIRST?
Jonathan (husband) and then we called my mom to tell her that their were two (after that I think she had a plane sky write it in Stafford to alert everyone we knew...just kidding)
8. DID YOU WANT TO FIND OUT THE SEX?
yes, and they were more than happy to help us out when the time came (typical boys...both side by side as if they were already "comparing" hahaha)
9. DUE DATE?
for a singleton May 21, 2003....but when they saw I had twins they wanted me to make it past 34 weeks, I made it to 39!
10. DID YOU HAVE MORNING SICKNESS?
yes, mainly from the prenatals...had to take them in the evenings
11. WHAT DID YOU CRAVE?
Steak...I was Phoebe from friends....hadn't had steak or red meat in over 9 years and then that is all I wanted....that and I did consume a Dairy Queen icecream cake every week for at least 4 months.)
12. WHO/WHAT IRRITATED YOU THE MOST?
Being on bedrest for close to 5 months, there is only so much lifetime TV a gal can watch!
13. WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CHILD'S SEX?
both were boys
14. DID YOU WISH YOU HAD THE OPPOSITE SEX OF WHAT YOU WERE GETTING?
We'd ask everyone what they thought I was carrying, everyone thought boy/girl..we'd tell them no...then they'd say girl/girl....again we'd say no...then they'd say boy/boy? (as if there was another option lol!) I am so glad for my little men :)
15. HOW MANY POUNDS DID YOU GAIN THROUGHOUT THE PREGNANCY?
way too many....I was 130 prior to the ivf and the last time I was weighed I was 220, two days later I was in the hospital and that number is unknown to me. So at least 90 pounds.
16. DID YOU HAVE A BABY SHOWER?
yes...several (one very early since I was placed on bedrest)
17. WAS IT A SURPRISE OR DID YOU KNOW?
I knew, we had to plan all of them as I could only be on my feet for so long
18. DID YOU HAVE ANY COMPLICATIONS DURING YOUR PREGNANCY? First we thought we were losing our pregnancy, then told we were having twins, then they saw what may have been a third..yes triplets. Put on bedrest due to cervical shortening.
19. WHERE DID YOU GIVE BIRTH?
Pitt Memorial Hospital NC
20. HOW MANY HOURS WERE YOU IN LABOR?
I went in on Tuesday Morning....nothing happened all day....Stopped induction. Started labor all on my own on Wednesday, still not much happening...induced again that afternoon....that evening was told I was probably going to deliver Thursday morning but the boys had other plans and at 1AM on Thurday I knew they were ready to come out..So I like to tell everyone I was in labor for 3 days. When actually I was the most uncomfortable from 7PM on Wednesday night until the epidural :) then I couldn't feel a thing!
21. WHO DROVE YOU TO THE HOSPITAL?
my husband and my parents
22. WHO WATCHED YOU GIVE BIRTH?
We were in the operating room (just in case anything went wrong) So I was limited to just two, although my DR would have allowed more. My husband and my friend Lynn video taped (just the cord cutting and the babies). My parents and my mother in law were anxiously waiting in my hospital room.
23. WAS IT NATURAL OR C-SECTION?
Natural...yes, you read it right....20 minutes apart...3 pushes for each of them!
24. DID YOU TAKE MEDICINE TO EASE THE PAIN?
I couldn't take anything...I was breastfeeding!

7lbs. 7 oz and 6lbs 3 oz.
