I’m back.....

It has been soooooo long that I am not sure if anyone will even remember me.  (almost a year, and I was a relitively new posted when I "disappeared") 

In March, I was given a huge surprise.... a double pink line on an EPT.  (it certainly explained the exhaustion that I had been feeling!)  Less than two weeks later, an U/S showed that we were having TWINS!  So, yes, that is probably around the last time that I logged in until recently.

The twins (identical boys) were born healthy on Sept. 16th (just two days after my 30th *gasp* b-day, and 5 weeks before their due date)  They only required 11 days in the NICU. 

I am now at the most lovely postpartum stage.... when you begin to shed hairs at a fast rate. 

I was able to make it through the pregnancy with only one trim.  I was able to somehow resist the urge to chop it all off.  My hair is waist length and really really close to what I will call hip length, but needs just a bit more growth. 

I just wanted to say hello and how good it is to see you all.  It has been a crazy, crazy year....but at least up until now, I have survived!

Congrats. I agree, that does sound scarey! Maybe I'll adopt to save my hair! Identical twins though? That sounds great but alot of work.

thank you all!   :)

I am afraid to count the hairs in my brush or in the tub after I wash my hair. This morning a while after I brushed, when I reached back and kind of ran my fingers through the ends of my hair.... there were 20 plus hairs that stayed on my hand.  I have to keep reminding myself that 20 hairs my length looks like even more than it is.  I don't recall this kind of shedding after my 1st son was born 8 years ago, but then again, that was 8 years ago and a very different pregnancy.

I am not noticing any really thin areas and I hope it stays that way. My hair is so heavy that the weight makes it appear thinner than it is anyway.
