QOTW: When did this pregnancy start to feel real?

Ladies, cheering you all on! Sending hugs to all of you who need them. Lots of love...

 

My update is that we ended up in L&D on Sunday because of decreased fetal movement. We were there for 5 1/2 hours but all checked out a-ok. Quite a relief.

We got these pictures while we were there, which was a nice souvenir!

As for your question, some days this feels REALLY real, and some days it still doesn't feel real at all. I've heard it's even hard to realize it's real with a baby in one's arms. Each day is different for me.

Hi all- I constantly lurk and am keeping my fx for those of you currently cycling!!

I'm 12w1d and hanging in. Had my NT scan and everything looks good. I've been having some cramping and a bit of backache which of course my Dr assures me is normal, but causes worry on my part! Just trying to stay calm and appreciate that I am pregnant today

As for whether or not it feels 'real' , my answer is no, haha! I know it is real, but it's hard for me to imagine getting to the finish line. Just trying to get through one day at a time and to enjoy some daydreaming here and there!

Here is my pic from yesterday

Hi ladies! Miss you, giant hugs all around!
I am doing good... just still trying to wrap my head around the fact that LO could be here at any time! This journey to actually become parents is almost over and a little overwhelming to think about at times. But I am truly grateful for all the love and support this board offered while we were struggling through IF. Don't know what I would have done without it! But anyhow, it's just a waiting game these days. I'm feeling good, just ready to get the show on the road and find out who this little person that we created is. Here's our pic from this week. We had a growth u/s to check on baby as I am measuring small so we got to have a sneak peak at the face!

Things started to feel real after 20 weeks. Before that I was so sure it would end in a loss. Even now I can hardly believe it's real. My thoughts are with you ladies. Hang in there! Dont give up.

@ronniesgirl1981 - Thanks for this post.

These are the kinds of pregnancy updates that will always make me smile, because they give me hope.  And my happiness for all of you is so strong that it actually manages to drown out my jealousy (for once).

Congratulations to all of you.
