You know I will share the details of yesterday's ultrasound appointments with you at some point - but just wanted to add a quick post today. Below are the ultrasound pictures that show all 4 of our little ones. We are both pregnant with twins - who are technically quadruplets, even though they are being carried between two wombs. We were able to see all 4 little heartbeats flickering on the ultrasound screen. Pretty amazing and quite unbelievable! I think we're still in shock - but super excited about what the future holds for us. Thanks for all of your supportive hugs, phone calls, and texts!!
P.S. Happy Birthday, Julie!! :)
The Johnston Quadruplets!! :) The ultrasound on the left shows the two babies inside of me. And the ultrasound on the right shows the two babies that are inside of their aunt.
We are still in shock! It is crazy how things turn out in life! I am smiling ear to ear for you guys - and shaking my head at the same time!! So excited that you are allowing us to be a part of the journey! You have quite the story to tell!
Lot of love, prayers, and best wishes to you all!

My husband and I got married in 2005 and tried to start our family back in January 2008. We started our 1st round of in-vitro in December 2010 - which is when this blog was started. Despite a near perfect cycle, it resulted in a negative pregnancy test in February 2011. We were fortunate to get 6 extra embryos from that cycle that were frozen. In March 2011 we started a Frozen Embryo Transfer cycle. Despite another great cycle (on paper), all 6 of our frozen embryos had to be thawed to get 2 good ones for transfer - which failed to result in a pregnancy. In 2012, we took the first half of the year off and then tried a couple rounds of IUI with and without fertility shots - still no baby. In 2013, we did our 2nd round of in-vitro with my sister offering to be our gestational carrier. We ended up transferring 2 embryos into each of us and were blessed to welcome 4 babies in October 2013.
