Thank you all for your information and reassurances. I have regained my calmness again, even adopting a que sera, sera attitude. If it’s twins, so be it. If it’s a singleton, so be it. If it’s a miscarriage…well, that would suck, but we’d get through it. We’ve already gotten through worse. I think I’m still in disbelief that we’re back at this pregnancy place again.
And now for a completely different topic—I’ve been holding out on you guys. Three and a half weeks ago, we rescued a dog. Colby is a 22-pound spaniel mix, five years old and the love of our lives. Seriously, we could not have found a more perfect dog. He’s a huge lover and insists on cuddling in our laps wherever we happen to be sitting. He has been a lifesaver for me—something to concentrate on besides dead babies, potential babies and gestating babies. And M, who wasn’t sure at first whether he wanted a dog, is completely in love with him. We’ve started taking him to dog obedience classes, which is a great distraction from all the other stuff going on in our lives.
In honor of Colby, I am going to post my first-ever photo on this blog. You will never see a picture of me, my belly (if I ever have one) or my baby (if I ever have one), but you will see my doggy.

Colby is the cutest! He is so sweet. I am glad that you were able to find a dog you liked. I was wondering about that not too long ago. I wondered if you decided to put that plan on hold or not. Thanks for posting his picture.
Colby is so cute!! I have a dog named Colby too! :)
That's great! Colby will elevate your mood and help you relax through these anxious weeks.
Oh my goodness he is PRECIOUS! I'm so, so, so happy that you rescued a dog. I want to get a rescue dog so badly, but my husband won't let me, says one is enough! Still wishing you the best...
He's a beautiful addition to the family! I'm glad you were able to find such a nice dog.
What a beautiful dog! Fur babies just amaze me at how much love and warmth they can provide. :)
Very cute!
Cute! Makes me want to have a doggie! I like the name too.

Beautiful addition Colby is. He will always agree with what you say and will never hold a grudge. Dear, sweet pets, worth their weight in gold they are.
