Appts/ Updates? Thursday for cervical check.weekly appts now.
How are you feeling?
Terrible back pain, contractions I am really tired and done. DS has been a real mama's boy too. I think he knows I'm in pain:( cervix is holding , gonna ask if it is thinning. I always just find out if open or closed. He thinks I will go when he takes out cerclage so must be something going on!
What are you craving? Pot pies..lol no idea why..
QOTW: How is everyone doing on Christmas shopping? Do you do it online, store or both? I have brother and hubby to buy for then done. I do a lot of online but this year got good deals in store so a mix up of the two this year!

I can't tag you Samuelismomma and this phone is about to be thrown through my TV. Or window. Arg. In the future I will look back on today when I have bad days and think, well, it wasn't as bad as 12/08/14.

I'm ready to run check in whenever you need I'm sorry about the back pain. That sounds awful. I wish I had some advice. Chasing a two year definitely makes pregnancy harder. My son is 28 months and runs constantly.

I learned at my doctor appt last week that I passed my one hour glucose! How crazy is that? We set my repeat C-section for Feb 17th (my dating u/s put me as an EDD of 2/20 and temping put me at 2/16). So that is crazy.

Hugs for those that need them.

EDD/How many weeks/Fruit? 6 weeks - sweet pea
Appts/ Updates?  After I received my beta results on Wed (they were good!), my doc said she wanted an u/s even though I was only 5 weeks.  So I went on thursday, a little wary because I knew there wouldn't be a heartbeat but at least we were able to verify the gestational sac was in the right spot and measuring correctly.  Next appt on 17 Dec.
How are you feeling?  Tired, bloated mostly
What are you craving?  Marie Callendar's White chicken & bean chili as a dip with fritos...it's SO tasty!
QOTW: How is everyone doing on Christmas shopping? Do you do it online, store or both?  I do both and I'm really procrastinating this year.  I usually have my xmas cards sent out by now and I haven't even started writing them this year.

EDD/How many weeks/Fruit? Aug. 3/6 weeks/sweet pea

Appts/ Updates?   20 days until my first appt and u/s

How are you feeling? Symptoms wise, just sore boobs, constant peeing, and exhaustion.  Emotionally not as great.  Today is the how far along I was when my little bean stopped growing, so the thoughts of things going wrong again are stronger than usual.  The mantras help, but I still find myself hoping if my symptoms get worse, then I will feel more secure.

What are you craving? Nothing in particular, just hungry.

QOTW: How is everyone doing on Christmas shopping? Do you do it online, store or both? We do a mix.  All the store gifts are done, so we just have a few online stuff to get.  We have free 2 day shipping with Amazon, so it will probably finished by this weekend.

EDD/How many weeks/Fruit? Aug. 3/6 weeks/sweet pea

Appts/ Updates?   First appointment on Thursday afternoon. I'm already extremely anxious about it

How are you feeling? I have ups and downs. My symptoms keep changing and it's really not helpful to a PgAL brain. But I'm still super bloated and my stomach is ... off. Not nauseated really, but not at all hungry and I feel like I have to force down water. So I'm holding on tightly to the symptoms I do have for reassurance. Ugh.

What are you craving?  Nothing.

QOTW: How is everyone doing on Christmas shopping? Do you do it online, store or both? We are going shopping this weekend and hoping to get a good majority done.

EDD/How many weeks/Fruit?
EDD 7/6/14 10 weeks!! Prune

Appts/ Updates?
12 week appt is on 12/26/14. Do they normally do an u/s at 12 wks? In announcing to family when we get together for Christmas on the 26th and I'm hoping for an ultrasound pic that shows a human looking baby instead of the one we got at 8 wks that looks like a blob. Also I want to check again before I announce that there is still a heartbeat.

How are you feeling?
Feeling okay. Been getting headaches a lot. Nausea is about the same-thrown up twice now. I realize I'm one of the lucky ones in the nausea dept but any amount of throwing up sucks.

What are you craving?
Well I got my jalepeno poppers so that crazing was satisfied. Not really craving anything right now.

QOTW: How is everyone doing on Christmas shopping? Do you do it online, store or both?
So far I've done all of mine in store which is weird for me. I have all but my mom and my husbands bought. Have no clue what to get either of them!

@CreechMommy‌ My OB doesn't have an in house u/s but I had scheduled my NT scan around 12 weeks. Maybe you could call now to schedule that if you have opted for that scan?

CreechMommy

@footprint  Thanks - he does have in house u/s, but I think I will call and just ask if they plan to do a scan.  Even if they don't do a scan, I would like them to listen for the heartbeat.

Sorry you are in a lot of pain, hope it gets better @Samuelismomma ‌ . My appointment went great. I got to see the baby and there was a heartbeat of 170 bpm. The baby was moving a little too. I was so happy and relieved.

07-06-2015/10 weeks/prune

Appts/ Updates? No upcoming appointments, next one is in two weeks.

How are you feeling?
I have a cold, so not so good. No fever, but I have a lingering cough. Morning sickness is still around, but not as bad.

What are you craving?
Pizza and Taco Bell. That's about it, lol.

QOTW: How is everyone doing on Christmas shopping? Do you do it online, store or both?
I do it in store, but I haven't been feeling up to it yet. Hopefully next week I will do all my shopping.

Samuelismomma

@rayann687‌ there is something about Taco Bell! Lol .. @kath16‌ welcome to the check in!

sgio7485

@samuelismomma I hope you're doing ok! 

One of these days I'll be on time to the check in! 

EDD/How many weeks/Fruit? 34 Weeks/Butternut squash (OMG...)
Appts/ Updates? I had a little scare last Thursday with some decreased movement so I was brought in for an NST. All is well, but it was scary! Baby was being stubborn. No other updates!
How are you feeling? I feel pretty good, just getting big! I'm starting to feel nervous and anxious.
What are you craving? chocolate!
QOTW: How is everyone doing on Christmas shopping? Do you do it online, store or both? I did a lot online, especially on Etsy. I also did black Friday shopping in the stores. Trying to finish up and wrap this weekend!
