Vanishing Twins

The recent ultrasound result only shows a baby instead of two, and the doctor says that one of the twins did not make it. Though the doctor says that this is quite common, we're kind of sad when knowing this as was already mentally prepared in having twins. I've did a search on the net before in preparing myself for the twins, and get to know the term for this kind of situation is known as vanishing twins. People are telling to look on the bright side, that is ease on the $$ and childcare, but it is still a life.

April Fools and It's not a Lie!

Big news!! My doctor had just confirmed that I'm pregnant recently. Another big news!! The doctor says that from the ultrasound results, there's a high chance that it will be twins!! While families and friends keep congratulating us, we're still yet to recover from the shock. When my husband heard the news, he's very worried about the $$. My in-law says that she will not be able to help take care of the babies.

My parents... well, they are just too happy (besides the fact that my younger brother and my elder sister will deliver another baby soon). This will make a total of 4 babies in the same year!!

Some people may had it easy with their pregnancy. For me, it feels like having minor food poisoning 24 hours a day (with all the vomiting, stomach discomfort, back pain, dizziness, tiredness etc). I've been sleeping at any chance I can get nowadays as well. Worse still I've discovered that I'm lactose intolerance, thus missing out on whatever "A" formulas that can comes with milk. Guess I just have to find other food alternatives to all these "A" thingy.

I do truly hope that I will feel better after the 1st trimester.
