Well, since I had been pretty quiet here for a while, and with the influx of new faces, I didn't really feel like posting a designated BFP thread. But I recently tiptoed on over to PG35+. At barely 6 weeks there is not much to report - I have my first MW appointment next week.
It's been a long journey, so I'm feeling relief but also the typical anxiety. Just praying for a smooth 9 months and trusting that the timing is perfect!
Looking forward to seeing many more "grads" soon

And the peace of God, which surpasses all understand, will guard your heart and mind in Jesus Christ (Philippians 4:7)
Not tons to report here. 24 weeks, 3 days today. We were in London last week for our Babymoon. It was lots of fun - perfect mix of walking around, seeing shows, great food and relaxing. Definitely starting to feel more tired and moving a lot slower. But otherwise feeling good. 24 week appointment earlier this week and all looks good. I get to look forward to the Glucose/Gestational Diabetes test at my 28 week appt.
I have another u/s tomorrow morning. However, for those of you who read my thread last week, I did end up going back in for a re-check. I passed a little bit of tissue and was freaking out on Friday. I went in Saturday and everything was ok. LO was measuring at 7 weeks and h/b was 115. RE also said it was normal to pass tissue during pg. Praying and hoping for a stronger h/b and more growth this week. I so appreciated everyone's concern and well wishes last week. It helped!!

That's good to hear @Lesliem0901. Hoping for more positive news!
I'm just past the 18 week mark. I started feeling the LO last week, I think. It's pretty exciting. The MS has been tapering off and my energy has been climbing up. I'm grateful for every bit of extra strength/energy I can get!
Hi ladies 25 weeks this week hmmm...cauliflower! Lol went to dr for checkup yesterday. He said she was little over a pound and looked great! Cervix is looking perfect. Will still get stitches out at 35 weeks! I have glucose test in 3 weeks at 28 mark. Rooting for all you ladies! So glad to see good updates here!

@Samuelismomma my neighbor had her cerclage removed and her son stayed put till 41 weeks. Maybe your little girl will keep cooking after stitches come out.
Had A/S appt yesterday. For those that don't lurk we are having a girl!! Everything looked good. Just have to go back to get more pictures of the heart since she was not being cooperative
Hugs for all that need them this week. You ladies take care.

Had to retake all tests and a mamm that put me behind and then on a DE waiting list for 12 months.
Picked a donor!! (10/13/13) Got matched. Estimated transfer in December. After 2.5 years of patiently waiting I will finally cycle....can hardly believe it. DE cycle got cancelled. One of her tests came back positive. Waiting for another donor. Donor picked!! (1/18/14)
DE IVF #1 (4/26) BFN DE FET #1 (6/4) BFP! Beta 1=339 Beta 2=852 Beta 3=9957 EDD 2/22/15!!
With a sad heart I have to inform you that all signs are pointing to miscarriage. Betas have slowed, and the doctor is not seeing growth. I'm absolutely devastated.
I will eventually join you all on this board again, but I need to take a break for a little bit. Thank for you being such an awesome support group.
