Re: Pregnant & TTC After a Preemie Check In 8/22/13

  • I love your great updates, @CurlingRocks! FX baby stays in for a couple more weeks!

    Still TTC here. It's taking a little longer than before, but I'm trying to relax and be positive.

  • Wow, I totally didn't know this board was around.  I guess I should pay more attention.  I have 28 weekers (twin girls) and am now currently pregnant with a little boy at 25 weeks.  The girls will be 2.5 when he is born.  So far everything is going really well, haven't had any complication but my OB is being extra cautious so I have dr. just about every week between the ultrasounds, her reg. appointments, NST/AFIs and progesterone shots.  I am thinking I will probably work until 28 weeks.  I am inching towards 28 weeks, which makes me feel relieved and scared at the same time.  Anyways trying not to stress too much.  Thanks for letting me say my story.
  • Hi! Congrats curlingrocks! Great news!!

    I had what was suppost to be my last cervical length u/s today. It shortened by 10mm over the last 10days and almost putting me into the red danger zone. So that with the strong contractions, I'm goin back for a follow up after Labor Day.
    My p17 shots are also giving me a warm raised allergic welt about 4inch in diameter even though I'm switching sides, using ice, etc. However annoying, I know that's not a big deal and I feel bad complaining.
    I'm a hot ball of mess tonight!

  • I agree @CurlingRocks. The whole point of this thread is to be able to support each other through pregnancy after a preemie. I know for me and the ladies who were due around the same time as I was, it was nice to hear from them weekly even if there was nothing to report. Just to be able to hear that they were ok was great! Lately, it seems like unless something major is happening, ladies don't give updates. It would be nice to hear from people every week even if there is nothing.

    After you @ CurlingRocks, we don't have babies due until December, but I would love to hear how they are all doing! Also, anyone know if @kwells1 had her baby?

  • @MinaE01 Hang in there! Same thing happened with us-got BFP in 2 cycles with DS that we assumed the same for the next pregnancy and it happened several more cycles after.

    @airsica Welcome to the thread and congrats on your pregnancy!  Glad to hear everything is going well so far! When is your EDD?

    @vsalt31 I am sorry to hear about cervical changes and reactions to the shot. I am definitely keeping you in my t&p's

  • Hi there! I'm a little confused about how this group works :/ 
    Is this about listing my situation i.e TTC, and you'll add it to the first long post? or is it a different board like "preemies" where we can discuss TTC etc?

    In any case, I'm aquariogirl: my DS was born at 31 weeks on due to severe and sudden pre-e onset. I'm thinking about TTC but I'm still on BP meds after 17 months...


    DS was born in April 2012 at 31 weeks - 45 days in NICU
  • @aquagirl I will add you to the long list on top for thinking about TTC. I post every Thursday where you can connect with others who are TTCing or just thinking about it. You certainly don't have to wait until this post to express some concerns or ask questions though. You can also just post on the preemie board.

    I see it as a support group for those who are all in the same boat because we have all been through something that most others on regular TTC boards have not experienced. It really helped me get through my pregnancy when I was placed on SBR at 21 weeks. Thank goodness I didn't deliver until 39 weeks, but getting positive feedback from everyone and supporting each other really help me get through the rough times.

  • @punky917 sorry I'm a little slow at getting back at you.  One of the girls amniotic sacs ruptured.  They aren't really sure why, but from their I lasted about 48 hours in the hospital and the girls were here.  My Dr. is being extra careful because they don't have a specific reason for why I went into preterm labor.  It was probably because of the twin thing, but twins aren't suppose to be born at 28 weeks either so here we are with lots of test and Dr. appointments.  It's better to be safe than sorry.  
  • Oh and my EDD is 12/8/13
