20 Week Anatomy Scan

edited January 2017 in Pregnancy and Babies
Scan went well, they have me coming back in 2 weeks they couldn't get a good shot of one part of their heart. I am showing some protein in my urine, if anyone knows what this means please assist. Drum Roll please.... Baby A is a GIRL, Baby B is a BOY, I'm beyond thrilled. I am not looking that big considering I'm 20w not in maternity clothes, but nothing really fits either... Track pants work :D

    I had some protein in my urine along with higher blood pressure, so they had me retest in a week. I was told it could be a symptom of preeclampsia. I retested and there was no protein present and blood pressure was normal. I think what happened was that a woman was in the office while I was waiting to go in and I overheard her tell the nurse that she thought she had a miscarriage. Well that totally got me going, as I've had 3. So, of course my blood pressure was high! :(
    I was told that the extra protein could have been because I ate some extra cheese or something. It's funny, but cheese has been like the only thing I've wanted to eat for the last like 8 wks! Hope all is well, and congrats on the boy/girl twins!!! It's so exciting! I'm really looking forward to my boy/girl twins as well!! ❤❤❤ 24w4d already for me!

    Thank you so much ! I am very happy. It took me 6 IUIs and 5 transfers, and a few years, but finally getting there. I did use donor embryos , but I"m okay with it all. Was fortunate to do it all in under 2 years, but age is not on my side. Now I need to keep my sweeties healthy and in me for at least 38 weeks which is my goal.
