Thanks for the congrats messages girls.
24+1 today and both girls kicking and going crazy. Last night Emma (twin 2) moved lots like I have never felt her before, and a hard lump appeared. Not sure if it was her bum/head or what. I think she has moved quite a bit cause I can feel her loads more now than I used to be able to cause her placenta was cushioning her movements.
Jessica is still as strong as ever.

Hi hun, fantastic news about the twins being girls and lovely names too. You must be so excited and bet you can't wait for the big day to arrive. I don't remember much about Samuel's birth now - it seems such a long time ago even though it was only 9 weeks ago - so treasure every moment and make sure you take loads and loads of pictures. Look forward to tracking your progress and hearing the news about their arrival. Big hugs Px

Thanks hunni, good luck with your scan. I shall be looking on the mutiples forum for that announcement. Are you hoping for anything imparticular.
Its so strange- we only found out a week ago, and not I cant remember not knowing about 2 girls, AND I cant tell you the amount of pink we have bought- LOL.

Honstley girls, what you say brings tear to my eyes,
You are all so lovely and supportive!
GemGilly- We know of a few people who had success at the Bridge. In fact, we are going to see friends of friends who had twin girls Xmas Day as a result of treatment there. And the fathers brother-in-law also had success there.
I could not speak highly enough of them.
I am always about for any questions you may have. I was lucky to have support when I was going through it, and would love to be there for you girls too xxxx

Hi Kelly I have been following your diary from day one and I am so pleased for you, twin girls is amazing!! I have just been told this week that IVF with ICSI is the nest step for us since we have had two failed attempts at IUI. We also go the Bridge Centre in London Bridge but have all our scans etc at the Rivers. Knowing you had such a fabulous result at the Bridge really does give me hope although I am totally petrified!! Good Luck with the rest of your pregnancy, it seems to be flying by! Gem x

Thank you hunni for your kind words.
I wish you every success with IVF. Everyones journey is very different and I dont just mean the final result. Personally, I did not find it too hard going, but then we were one of the lucky ones.
One thing I will say, is even if the treatment does not seem to be going well, it CAN still work out. As you could tell by my diary I had very up and down days when injecting and scans were going on etc, BUT it can still work out.
If you have any question, please please do not hesitate to contact me.

Lovely names
yes Jessica Lin does sound American Lovely idea having your mums names as your little ones middle names Oh it's so exciting!it's good to hear that girls are born through ICSI. Everyone I know who has had IVF/ICSI have had boys
I take it you're going to go on a mad spending spree and buy lots of pink things!

That's really sweet news, congratulations. You can start buying lots of pink babygros now!! Jo xxx
Long overdue update! I am now 30+3 and both girls seem to be doing fine.
We have had a few scares and been on the delivery suite a few times and a hospital stay, but noth staying put at the mo.
I started Mat leave on Weds, so its nice to relax.
All ready now, nursery is done, bags are packed, just waiting until the time is right.
Got 32 week scan on 25th where they will look at the sizes and placentas. At 28 weeks both girls were measuring 2lb 12oz each which is great and ahead of a singleton even.
Hoping for about 4lb's ish on 25th.
Jessica's placenta is low and near the cervix, so unless it moves, we are looking at a C Section. Depending on their sizes it could be sooner rather than later.
Last Monday at 29+5 my bump was measuring 38 weeks, so not sure how much I will grow before I pop!!!!!!
Anyway, good luck to you girls going through IVF or approaching it shortly.
