I have had some interesting dreams lately, which from what I understand is normal for pregnancy from the hormones. Last night I had the most interesting one that I have to share. I was dreaming about getting my ultrasound (that is coming in 3 days, yay!). The tech was doing the looking around and was passing numerous little sacs. He or she (don't remember) would pause on each one to see the heartbeat flicker, which was cool (granted I have never seen one in real life). I was thinking that the tech kept going back to the previous ones and check because he did it a number of times. Then he left without saying a word to go get Dr. Kee.nan. (Which by the way is interesting because he won't be present at any of my u/s checks being 6 hours away- that I know of anyway.) The Dr. came in and proceeded to tell us that we are pregnant with 5 babies with heartbeats! LOL! I was like, how can that happen from 2 embryos? And he said that one split to triplets and the other to twins. My husband was almost passed out at this point. Ha ha! But, the kicker is that he told us that he thought they all wouldn't survive because of vanishing twin syndrome, and we would likely end up with just triplets. Wow! This dream was so real, it was hilarious. I was thinking in my dream that I was one short of Jo.n & K.ate + 8 and that I would become HUGE!
My last part of the dream was, before I woke up for a 3 AM bladder emptying, I told the Dr. about my friend from church. Now this part is real life...I have a middle-aged lady at church that is a big prayer warrior and has adopted 2 of her kids in the past (teenagers now). When she heard about us doing EA she said she was going to pray for twins for us. I was thinking cool. Well, a couple weeks later she told me that she was praying in a grocery parking lot one day for us and the "twins" and heard a voice from God tell her that it was going to be triplets! So for the last 6 months or so that has been the running joke. I asked her if she wasn't sure that it meant that I would be carrying 3 embryos and then not all of them survive to pregnancy. But she said no, it was the same experience she had when another couple in our church was adopting traditionally. She heard from God they were going to adopt twins. But the mother said that was impossible because the baby boy they were getting was only a single baby....but 3 months later they were chosen to adopt a little baby girl, too. So the unrelated boy and girl are only 3 months apart, thus almost twins.
So, I am only thinking I am carrying two babies right now, possibly one. But Tonie is adamant that it is three. I will be grateful for whatever God decides to bless us with, just a little more scary when you get past two. We shall see in a few days....
