~~June Mommas PGAL Check-in~~

Will do :-)

I've been feeling pretty good overall. Crampy, gassy, breasts feeling heavy when working out, a little tired. With our miscarriage I never felt any symptoms other than the heavy BBs, and I spotted almost daily. So this time around I feel totally different which calms the PGAL crazies. That alone is getting me through that long wait until the appointment, as long as the symptoms continue and there's no spotting.. I feel pretty confident that've got a sticky little baby in there! Though I do wonder when I will stop compulsively looking for blood when I go to the bathroom. OCD TP checker, guilty as charged ! Fave Halloween movie, scream! Remember watching it at my 12th birthday party, still love it today!

@kimmyberly26 thank you for getting this up and running!  I will be working next Friday and sleeping most of Saturday, or I'd offer to pick up - hope you have a great trip!

I'm sorry I'm late - the in-laws were here alllllll day yesterday and then I had to work last night

How are you feeling physically/emotionally? Emotionally, I guess I'd say optimistic.  A good ultrasound Thursday with a very positive doctor's outlook after helps with that.  Physically, I'm exhausted and require a nap every day, my boobs are super sore, and I'm getting more and more nauseated, but only dry heaves, no pukes.  It all reminds me that yes, today I am pregnant!  Oh and my face is resurrecting it's teenage acne appearance.  Awesome.

Any updates or appointments coming up you'd like to share? Ultrasound and appt 10/17 went great - there was a baby bean measuring about 6w6d with a good heart rate according to my doc!  EDD is officially 6/3 based on LMP, I'm not measuring far enough off to go by O date instead.  Get to go back Friday 10/25 for a follow up ultrasound and appt...hopefully all is looking well!
Any PgAL crazy you want to add?  Add me to the list of crazy TP checkers.  Every.time.  And I'm pretty much at the point where I lost my last one, so I think part of me is still waiting for the bottom to drop out...stupid pgal. I miss the naive woman I was when we first started trying

QOTW - What is your favorite Halloween movie?  GIFS are encouraged to get everyone in the spirit. I suck here.  I was always a big chicken when it came to scary halloween movies.  Maybe the Charlie Brown one?

My PGAL crazy for today... I was having a lot of cramps last week and the last few days, nothing. So obviously I'm convinced something is wrong. Waiting until Thursday (dr) is going to be torture.

How are you feeling physically/emotionally? I'm a wreck today. I've been very tired lately and after a nap today I woke up to use the bathroom and to my fear I had very light pink on the tp. That was enough to ruin the rest of my day!
Since then there hasn't been anything, but I'm on edge running to the bathroom what feels like every 20 minutes...if I could ask you girls my H and I had sex yesterday morning could that just be the cause of the spot today?

Any updates or appointments coming up you'd like to share? I don't have my first appointment until the 28th.


Any PgAL crazy you want to add? Nothing else to add right now!

Scary Movies? I don't watch scary movies...

Pintobean39

@livsweetmama .... Yes sex can cause you to have a little spotting.

&ginabina11 I'm so sorry for your loss

How are you feeling physically/emotionally? Eh.  Still super tired and now have a mild nausea that lasts most of the day.  I basically don't feel like doing anything other than laying around on the couch/in bed all day.  Emotionally I am doing better after my first US last week.  I know hearing the heartbeat is a big milestone so I'm trying to keep that in mind.

Any updates or appointments coming up you'd like to share? My next appointment is 10/29.  Fingers crossed that everything is still okay!

Any PgAL crazy you want to add?  I'm definitely doing the check for blood every time I go to the bathroom (which is often) and about five times a day I've convinced myself that I've started bleeding even though I have yet to even spot.

I hope everyone has a great week!

QOTW - What is your favorite Halloween movie?  GIFS are encouraged to get everyone in the spirit.   I'm definitely not a scary movie person  so I would say Hocus Pocus.

@livsweetmama sex can cause spotting - but for the most part it should be jsut brown (old blood) how are you feeling today ?

@ginabina11 so sorry for your loss - your in my T&P's

Livsweetmama

@woodsseltzer09 I didn't have anymore spotting yesterday/night but when I woke up this am I spotted again. I called my dr. this am just waiting for a call back now. Hopefully they can get me in and check an calm me down!

Emotionally I'm feeling nothing at this very moment. Just sitting in the OB's office waiting for my appointment. Just had another u/s that didn't answer any questions and keeps me in limbo for yet another week. Just going to keep doing whatever I have to do as if I knew it was viable.

Once I see my OB I'll have an update as to when my next appointment will be, but at the moment I just wish I had an answer either way.

I hate PGAL, it's such a mind f**k. And I just want to be naive again and not know what it's like this be here. Sitting in a room full of big bellies makes me want to run outside, but instead I'm sitting here fighting back tears.

WoodsSeltzer09

@chusum my heart breaks for you. I remember that pain of sitting in limbo at the dr.s office. I really think they should have a seperate area for woman who just had a MC or are in limbo. To make the process "easier"

@livsweetmama hope you get some answears from your doctor

chusum

@WoodsSeltzer09 thank you. they have a separate GYN and OB waiting room. I could probably ask to sit in the GYN side, but that might confuse the nurses. I'm just going to bury my face in my phone.

@kimmyberly26 -- Thanks for running this check-in! It is nice to hear how everyone is doing. My EDD is 6/11/14. 

How are you feeling physically/emotionally? Updates/appointments?I'm feeling pretty positive today. Had an ultrasound this morning...our blob measured 6 weeks 6 days, with a heartbeat of 141. Such a relief to get good results! Doc (RE) said to keep taking the progesterone for a few more weeks, but he doesn't need to see me again unless I have any issues. We told my immediate family over the weekend and DH is going to tell his parents soon too, so it is starting to feel more real though I know it's still too early to be counting our chickens. Physically -- every day is different. Yesterday I felt like I had a raging hangover all day -- sour stomach, exhausted -- and today I felt pretty normal. Any PgAL crazy you want to add? Still talking in "ifs" and checking the TP. Good to know it's not just me. I'm not really into Halloween movies either, sorry to say. But I do love to see trick or treaters and hope to get a bunch in our new neighborhood!
