I got to see the two hearts, beating away on Thursday, and wow, it's also very transformative for me to see TWO there. The first ultrasound only showed one!

Anyway, it sounds like most of you are moms already? Anyone else on the weekly chat that's going to be a first-time mama?

Me! I'm pg with my first. It's also my very first pregnancy so I have no idea what to expect. I'm happy I've made it to 6 weeks! That's all I can say - AND that I'm really looking forward to seeing the heartbeat in 3 weeks. Congrats on expecting twins! I think there are a handful of others around here expecting their first as well - we are in the minority, but I think that's great b/c we can learn so much from all the seasoned mamas around here!

I'm certain I've said it before but welcome to our group Celeste! I'm so excited you're moving to Portland. There is a great community of moms here, which I see you've already met on the Portland chat thread. I live really close to Portland so it'll be really cool to have you so close by!

Welcome, Celeste! I can relate to it feeling weird to just jump in! I don't know anyone either, but the only way to get to know people it to jump right in, and post post post! Congrats on TWINS!! That must be excited and scary all at the same time! I still remember so much of my first pregnancy, it was so great, even with all of the MS, weight gain, and pains. It makes me teary eye to think about it, and to look at my toddler (when the heck did that happen???). So enjoy it! It'll be over before you know it!
