Our BFP 7-17-08

So, I had Lalo buy me an EPT on the 17th of July because my birthday coming up and we wanted to go to a restaurant. Of course I would have had a few drinks as i normally would. This was a week before i was "due". Sure enough it was a BFP. But the next day it faded away, yeah good EPT, Lalo bought another one that day i took it the next morning and its still positive to this day =]. So I went in for my appt and told my doc i had a BFP and he was shocked. SO he sent me for my HCG levels and at 4 weeks it was 904. wow!! He said I'll do an ultrasound at your next appt. Next Appt came no ultrasound. He just wanted me to go for more levels. So i decided to call another Dr. Went in and had a scan done at 10 weeks. The Dr was like "there's the baby and there's the heartbeat". I said "Oh my God, is that another one?" She said "I am not sure" And with a little more looking she said "Yep, there's baby B's heartbeat too". I just laughed and cried and kept repeating myself saying "oh my God". That was the best feeling ever. I was Ecstatic to see the first baby on there and I cried like any normal mother would. But, when I seen a second one. WOW!!! So, Lalo wasn't in the ultrasound room with me. He had taken the other 3 out to the waiting room because they were starting to get annoyed about being there with nothing to do, which is understandable. So when I came out crying he thought something was wrong. He said "whats wrong" and I just handed him the ultrasound picture. He said "What does this mean?" and I showed him the twin pregnancy verification paper and I thought he was going to hit the floor. He said "are you serious?" I said "the picture dont lie". And so I went on to tell the kids. Alexandra being 2yrs 4months wasn't able to comprehend at the time what two babies were. But Esperanza (6) & Cristian(4) were both very able to comprehend two babies and Esper's face lit up like Christmas morning. Cristian was just all giggly. lol. So, we get out to the car and leave the doctors. Lalo was on the phone to his family in Mexico before we got to the highway. They knew before my family did and my family was 20 minutes up the road. My family had been texting me for the whole appt to see if I had an ultrasound and to see if it was twins or not. I just told my mom that I'd talk to her when I got there. So that scared her and she called me. I just busted out crying and told her that there we two babies in there and in turn she busted out crying and laughing. And through all this she was in the middle of Kmart lol. All of my family was so excited that we would be having the first twins in the immediate family soon. The doc gave me an EDD of 3/20/09 as per the ultrasound and my LMP. It is the greatest feeling in the world to see your baby for the first time on ultrasound. I cried with all 3 of the older ones. But to see two of your babies on that screen is just wow. Nothing else can describe it. I knew it was twins. I had a gut instinct. I told Lalo since I found out I was pregnant that I knew it was twins. We even joked about it on the way to the doctors. How ironic right?

Here is our first ultrasound and you can very well tell its twins =] this was 10 weeks
