I noticed some of you have not been very active on TB lately. If you do log in, hope you will all keep in touch and keep us updated!

AFM...

1. How many weeks along are you?   17w6d - Team Purple!

2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)?  Still dealing with placenta previa and some spotting.  Hoping the MFM doctor is right and it will clear up soon.  My next appointment is the a/s on March 9.  MFM office told me to allot 3 hours for the appointment!  This pregnancy is so different - I am spending a lot more time at doctor's offices. 

3. How are you feeling lately?  Been having some groin / hip pain that is a little frustrating.  Hoping it eases up tonight and I get some more sleep.

4. QOTW:  What made you smile this week?  During our bedtime story cuddle, DD told me she wanted to say goodnight to the babies.  She lifted up my shirt, peered into my belly button and said - Mom, I can't see them - it's too dark!

How many weeks along are you? 28 weeks on Monday!! CRAZY!!

2.
Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? I have my monthly check up also on Monday

3.
How are you feeling lately? Nesting! I am going nuts lately getting things organized & ready. Physically, not terrible. Baby moves like crazy a lot which I am enjoying since this will be my last baby.

4.
QOTW: What made you smile this week? My 4 year old got student of the month at school (pre-k)- the theme was honesty, so we are very proud of him!

Thanks @lawmom747

How many weeks along are you?
40w2d - overdue!!!

2.
Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)?
On Wednesday did the battery of weekly tests, everything looks good. I had been having regular contractions and OB thought I'd deliver on Wednesday or Thursday.... Obviously not. She didn't think I'd made it to my next appointment, which is 7:30am on Monday. On Monday if I haven't delivered, she's going to do a membrane sweep. If that doesn't work, induction on Thursday. So there's a light at the end of the tunnel...

3.
How are you feeling lately?
Awful. The pain in my pelvic bone nearly drops me at times. Sometimes I can't even walk. Im fat. Uncomfortable. Overdue. Im just ready for it to be over!

4.
QOTW: What made you smile this week?
DD made me a bracelet out of beads. I love it.

I've attached a picture of the bump for reference on how uncomfortable I am! How I'm able to be upright is a mystery!

1.
How many weeks along are you? 
8w1d (EDD is now 10/10/15)

2.
Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? 
Siggy shows my most recent ultrasound results I do have a breast ultrasound on Wednesday (3/4/15), and then an OB appt and ultrasound on Monday 3/9. Then I will be going to St. Louis to an MFM for my NT scan.

3.
How are you feeling lately? 
Pretty good! Nausea is hitting me harder every day, but overall, I'm doing really well.

4.
QOTW: What made you smile this week?
My kiddos have been so much more snuggly this week. Teething (DS) and growth spurt (both DS and DD) has them a bit fussy, but super snuggly, and I'm soaking it up

lawmom747

Hang in there @Mommalawyer - the end is in sight!!!

@iheartsippycups2 - other people are starting to make me panic that I need to do more for the babies right now...so please send me some nesting vibes...

@cshm11 - yea for snuggles - DD has been pretty snuggly lately too and I'm enjoying every minute of it!

sailorgal

13 weeks and baby is a boy. We did NIPT and all came back low risk so that all made me smile of course.

Otherwise feeling tired and sick but finally started to feel like this may all be a success.

iheartsippycups2

@mommalawyer You look great! Just looks like a basketball under your shirt! BUT I know how uncomfortable you have to feel right now!

@lawmom747 The nesting will kick in for you, trust me! I just want to get things organized before I get too big & really don't want to do anything. I think it also is because I have had the shower already, so I didn't want to look at the stuff piled in my living room anymore! LOL

1. I'll be 15 weeks tomorrow.

2. No real updates. Had an appointment last week and scheduled my anatomy scan for 3/30. Hurry up, time!

3. I'm doing pretty decent overall. Nothing worth complaining about.

4. Something that made me smile hmm...DS makes me laugh all the time but I can't remember any specific stories at the moment. Oh we had a new person start at work last week after having an open position for a couple of months so that made me quite happy. Some reduced work stress is always welcomed.
