Long time

It has been a long time since I posted on here but most of you who follow me on Facebook you have gotten updates. Those of you who have not seen my pregnancy blood test went from 145 to 1425 to 3440ish. Then last week I had an ultrasound and was able to video chat with the parents during the procedure. We saw two sacs and two heartbeats! One was 114 and the other was 124. They implanted one from each father and one of each sex so it looks like I will be having a boy and girl again. The nausea is of course horrible again. The clinic has started me on Diclegis. This is my first time using this but with my boys and the twins I took Zofran, which has since been deemed unsafe to take during pregnancy. It is a medication you take twice a day to prevent the nausea and vomiting. It works good but I have had some breakthrough symptoms. You can up the dose if needed but I am waiting to do that if it gets unbearable. I am beginning to taper off my medications so hopefully the injections won't be happening for much longer. I am not sure how much of that I have shared so I will say I now take 2 pills in the morning (levothyroxine, and Diclegis). Then one injection everyday and one Mondays and Fridays. Then I take Prenatal vitamins, baby asprin, vitamin D, and Diclegis at night. Also I do two vaginal suppositories a day. So needless to say I can't wait to finish with them. I know how important they are to the process to I don't mind taking them but as soon as it is safe I will be happy to stop them. I have another ultrasound in two weeks to make sure they are growing correctly. Wish me luck!
