Update 2/11/19

Things have been very stressful. I have lost 2 of the babies. Not sure why. And now they are concerned with my cervix thinning out. So we are watching all this in hopes we won’t lose the last 2. Hard to deal with and discuss so haven’t been talking to many people regarding this.

Update 1/14/19

Went and seen the high risk doctor. All the babies are still doing well as of right now. They are labeling be a quint pregnancy since I have lost one already, which makes the pregnancy higher risk. We talked a lot about different options and the possibility of me having to have a feeding tube.

We will continue following with this doctor. I’m so glad he’s my doctor because he great bedside manner and actually listens to my concerns. This is still all very scary, and all the risks involved scare me quite a bit.

Update 1/10/19

Well went to my appt this morning. And they did find a 5th Sac with a baby inside but with no heart beat. It was smaller and she said it was starting to absorb.

They are very concerned with my weight loss due to the fact that I’m losing so rapidly and are talking about admitting me if the meds they gave me don’t start helping.

I had the gastric sleeve surgery almost 3 years ago, so that is why it’s more of a concern because it’s already still hard for me to maintain let alone with 4 living beings in my body. I see the MFM on Monday 1/14/19 for more of an in-depth ultrasound to find out more and how the babies are doing.

1/7/19

Well I went in for my 9 week check up today. We thought the whole time I was having triplets. But I guess they missed one and found the 4th one today. This literally scares the shit out of me. And I just keep thinking how the hell did they miss one baby. Anyways there’s a baby in all there own sacs. People were asking for an update so this is my newest one.

Baby A is measuring 9w

Baby B is measuring 8w6d

Baby C is measuring 8w6d

Baby D is measuring 8w3d

So this was all on my original post. But we did fertility and I was on Lupron, follistim and did a trigger shot. We did an

IUI

.

I have another follow up on 1/10/19 to check for any possible more that may be hiding. This is all getting more and more scary. Right now I don’t feel exactly blessed but I’m still very scared about all of this. So many risks and I have already lost 10 pounds since I found out i was pregnant ( not trying). I have lots of doctors I’m seeing and will continue seeing what they say is the best to do.
