What a relief! I have been stressing about this forever it seems like! I absolutely love love my current dr and his staff! However, the hospital he delivers at doesnt even register on a trauma scale.. There is no NICU, no ventilator! My poor babies would have been bag ventilated! I can't even imagine!
I have officially switched to Cheat Lake physicians and they deliver at West Virginia University Hospital and they have the BEST children's hospital around! I am so relieved!
I am lucky enough to work in a dr office and our referral nurse Missy totally hooked me up and I go Monday to everyone's favorite dr here! So Yay!
I called my original dr office and let them know- I was so dreading it!! But - I love them and they love me! Michelle was super nice said she would take care of transferring everything over and she suggested a dr there if I didn't have one. Told her her birthing story.. Just awesome awesome staff! I will definitely miss them!
So- I am 12 weeks today! Wahoo! I was at one point (yesterday) 7 days no vomiting- until this morning. Wonderful!
I did have a slight burst of energy which I am currently paying for today- exhausted! I made homemade pepperoni rolls, homemade cinnamon rolls, homemade potato soup, homemade laundry detergent, cleaned the kitchen, did dishes and about 7ish loads of laundry. Yes, I am crazy.
I will make sure I post a survey soon! :)

Flowers & Oodles of Noodles:: Happy V Day!
I will start with Valentines Day and then back track!
Thursday- I had already worked 2 straight days in a row- the day before a 12 hour shift. I was in bed by 9, asleep by 10! I had another 12 to work on V Day! The day before we found out a coworkers husband had been in a severe mining accident and was in ICU awaiting an organ donor transplant team. It was the saddest situation. This man was such a joy! He was the proud grandpa of two little adorable boys! This month was of course Valentines Day & happened to be their wedding anniversary! He sent her flowers at work the day before this accident happened. I felt that you can never let a day go by without telling the people you love how much they mean.
I texted Andrew and told him I couldn't never tell him how much I appreciate him. I had been a terrible house wife lately and he has picked up all the slack. I was so lucky and couldn't wait for my babies to be chasing their adorable daddy around! Little did I know, he had sent me flowers only a couple hours later! They were beautiful! I secretly hated that he wasted that much money- but that will probably be the last year he does something like that with twins! So- what the hey!
Work went on and on and on. A girl at work said- what is Andrew making you for valentines day dinner? I said probably nothing- if I'm lucky- oodles of noodles. Which I know how exhausted we both were. One hour later on my way home, I said so- whats for dinner? He said ummm oodles of noodles!
Now- do I know my husband or what?!?
Rewind to Wednesday- first official baby dr appt! I had to leave work and come back so the girls at the office were nice enough to call the day before with the half an hour worth of questions! The appointment still took 2 hours! My parents went with me- they were so excited! I had my bloodwork and pap by myself and they went and got my parents in time for the ultrasound! Dr Prouty did such an amazing job! He even did a 3D image for us! Baby B was bouncing all over the place- amazing! My parents loved it and were over the moon excited! Which made me tear up a bit- I've been so nervous as to how I am going to parent two at once and I keep forgetting what miracles I have inside me! Miracles! Lesson learned!

Exhausted!
I am officially 10 weeks 6 days! Last week I was super excited for my appointment on Thursday only to wake up to a phone call saying they needed to reschedule. Seriously?!
The day before my sister called and she was super sick, I told her not to come with me I didn't want to get sick- I'm already chronically exhausted- I don't need a sickness to add to that. She was disappointed. My mother caught wind of that decision and invited herself along! Lol I honestly thought about asking her but she has been complaining about her back hurting and I knew how long we would be in there so I figured it would aggravate her back even more. She was super excited and was even more upset when they cancelled. This is the second appointment that has been changed/cancelled. If they do this one more time, I'm out. They can pack up my records and ill be there to pick them up! I'm that frustrated!
First off, I'm not even convinced that I am at the correct doctor. If everything goes 100%, I won't have an issue. However, if I have to be separated from my babies, I will hurt someone!
I have a ton of questions for my new appointment on Wednesday. Hopefully it will be a quick appointment since I have to return back to work afterwards. They are supposed to call with the history questions, if I don't hear from them by tomorrow at 230 when I leave work, I'm going to call.
As for my actual pregnancy, these babies better be grateful! I am exhausted, nauseous and probably dehydrated from all the vomiting I have been doing. I up chuck at least once a day, barely keep a meal down. This morning, it was grapes! What do my sweet babies have against grapes?! Note to self- dont eat them again. They are a monster to puke back up! Oih!
Not only the usual pregnancy symptoms, I burp like a 300lb man after a drinking contest, and have had a runny/stuffy nose and chronic cough since being pregnant. Super fun.
But- hey it's all worth it right?!?!
