So….what’s new? A BIG NOTHING!

The babies are the size of a lime! Well four limes! Drink anyone?

Giving a 12 week update, since we will be completing our 1^st trimester this week, and we are trying to think about what updates we can give out. We haven’t been to the doctor yet, and at our last appointment with Dr. Hermann, it was just a quick, “ok, good luck” visit. It seems like forever since we have gotten to see the quads and check on them, Danielle is scared to death that when we do get to go it will be bad news. This seems to be a theme for our pregnancies- DON’T GET YOUR HOPES UP. But we keep reminding her that it will all work out like it’s suppose to, and there isn’t anything she can do different now to change that outcome.

Our 1^st appointment with the Maternal-Fetal Medicine doctor is April 9^th, which just so happens to be my mom’s birthday (so Happy Birthday, and I hope that brings us some good luck). We will be going to see Dr. Michael Zaretsky at Children’s Medical Center Legacy in Plano. That in it’s self was a major project, finding a doctor that would take you with quads, that takes both insurances, delivers at your choice hospital, and has a highly rated NICU for the babies. It was a full time job, and once you finally get everything ready and you have your selected doctor, you just have to wait, because they don’t see anyone before you 12 weeks. Also we may get to find out some of the sexes of the babies at this appointment.

We have really been lucky in the fact that almost everyone that has had quads, has a blog, so we have been able to read, read, read, (at least 2 blogs start to home coming a day), it’s really given us some insight for what is going to be happening for us in the upcoming weeks. We had some hesitation with opening up for everyone to see, but if it wasn’t for people like that we would be in the dark about a lot of things, so expect us to be completely open from cravings to constipation. (Speaking of cravings, I have been woken up by Danielle the last week around 4 a.m. each morning with a new one, the last one that I can remember is the 4 a.m. wake up for McDonald’s French fries.)  We have so much to do, but we are frozen, we don’t want to start doing anything because we don’t want to get too ahead of ourselves and something happen. One thing is that our Explorer that we bought 3 days before we found out we were having quads will not fit our family, and it appears that a family of 7 with a triplet stroller and a twin stroller will not fit into anything other than a small bus…frankly I don’t think I can do it!

About Us

Our 1st post...so where to start. We are Josh and Danielle Vereze, we are high school sweet hearts and were married October 30, 2004. Since then we have been on a crazy trip. 

It was six long years of trying to have a child, we sought the help of a fertility specialist in October 2008...Round 1 was a failure, Round 2 was a failure, and Round 3 was a success, we were finally pregnant. After countless negative pregnancy tests over the years, we finally received a positive. We were jumping, screaming, and over joyed, words can't explain how that felt (I think we told everyone we knew within 15 minutes). We discovered that we were pregnant with twins, however we were already having complications, and around nine weeks, we miscarried both babies.We were destroyed, our world fell apart.


We decided to try one last time, our 1st round of tests showed that the procedure more than likely didn't work. Well it worked, however we weren't able to enjoy this pregnancy at all, we were stressed out the whole time and bracing for another miscarriage. 9 months later our lives changed forever, Georgia was born July 30, 2010, perfect and healthy.Since her birth she has become the center of our world and we wouldn't have it any other way. 


Attempting to catch lighting in a bottle again we went back to the fertility doctor to try again...did the procedure and WHAM! Pregnant. Our numbers (betas) were very high which our RE (fertility doctor) thought there were two settling in. Well based on the title of this blog, you can tell there was more than one, two, or even three. There are four! Our fertility doctor was shocked, we were shocked, our OB/GYN was shocked..(and I'm using shocked as a nice term). So here we are, the start of a new journey!
