Re: PGAL Check-In 3/28
Next milestone/appointment? 1st appointment was supposed to be last Thursday but they cancelled on my way there. Now it's rescheduled for Friday, which also happens to be my loss milestone. It's not supposed to be an ultrasound (even though last Thursday's was supposed to be...see last week's thread if you want to hear my rant) but I'm thinking about calling and asking if I can get an ultrasound this time because I've had a rough weekend....
Rant/Rave/Anything else: On Friday I had very very light brown spotting and I had mild cramping all day. The cramps weren't too bad so I wasn't worried. On Saturday I started spotting a little heavier brown and it's been going on since then. It has never been red (like my last MC). The mild cramps still come and go and all of my other symptoms have vanished so I'm starting to panic a little. I'm also traveling for work all week so if this is the start of a MC it couldn't be worse timing. I really don't want to be 1000 miles from home and needing to concentrate on work. This week is not going to be fun.
Questions? Not really. Just worries for now.
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? Can it be a boat? I would love to live on a sailboat.
Next milestone/appointment? Today; follow-up u/s to my appt last Thurs when I started spitting. Should see heartbeat today! And regular 8w appt still scheduled for next Monday; 4/4.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: My cold is starting to get a bit better, but damn it's been a b*tch! Being sick and prego is no fun.
Questions? Nada
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? I'm totally lusting after the new Volvo XC90. I have one, but it's a few years old and the new one is just AMAZE! Im hoping maybe the end of this year we'll be able to trade mine in for one.
Married: September 2012

BFP #1: 10/12/16, EDD: 06/23/15,
(pPROM, 16 wks + emergency D&E 12/31/15)
BFP #2: 03/09/16, EDD: 11/16/16
Next milestone/appt: April 7 for first ultrasound
Rant/Rave/Anything else: I can't tell if my bloating is a symptom of celiac disease or pregnancy so eating is very difficult right now. My favorite food might be cross contaminated so now I am going to have to cook practically every night which is no fun, especially because I am working 6 days a week right now.
Questions? nope
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle? A couple of years ago I bought my dad's convertible. I love it but my SO and I both needed new "family friendly" cars so when we started ttc we both got new ones. Now I have a new car (same one a mom friend has, room for at least 2 car seats) but I still have my convertible. I would love to drive it but it's parked at my parents house now and once I get more pregnant it will probably be too difficult to get in and out of. Also when I was younger I always wanted a BMW Z3 (with the James Bond gadgets, of course).
Next milestone/appointment? Friday. Should be a u/s to check on placement/progress.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: I feel like things might not be going well. I have pretty much no symptoms, the ones I do have occasionally are pretty mild, except for food aversions. I hate everything right now. But, I just don't FEEL pregnant.
Questions? I want another blood test to check on what's going on. I'm really concerned about lack of symptoms. Will they give me one for not feeling KU?
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? I would love a motorcycle to cut through traffic (ridding between lanes is legal here), but they're too dangerous and I've never ridden on one or driven one. But I like the idea of it.
@jrussell16 I'm sorry you're experiencing this while you're away from home. Can you call your doctor and ask them what they think you should do since you're out of town? If you have a PPO plan, you should still be able to see a care provider while you're traveling. *hugs*
Next milestone/appointment? - Ultrasound & bloodwork thus afternoon. Seeing the family MD next Monday. OB on April 14 (still soooo far away)
Rant/Rave/Anything else:
Rant: I'm pretty irritated that the wait to see the OB is so long...I'm off work because of the SCH and I'm not comfortable going back on regular duty until I see the OB and get her opinion.
Symptoms: I was worried yesterday because I hadn't really had any nausea over the weekend...then I drank a coffee for the first time in a couple weeks and triggered it to come back, oops. Still no vomiting, just mild nausea, waking up at 4:30 pretty much every morning to pee, sore nipples and tender breasts. Constipation is back, still super fatigued but the bloat has improved a bit!
Questions? - nope!
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? - I'm not really a car person so this is tough for me...probably an Escalade ESV, pretty and practical!
ETA: @MissAmeliaPond - despite being KU with twins, my symptoms are not that pronounced either. I keep bracing myself for an onslaught of morning sickness but I'm beginning to think its not coming! My most obvious symptom is just the sore boobs and nipples...try not to stress, maybe you're just one of the lucky ones!
Next milestone/appointment? First appointment with my OB not just a nurse on 4/4.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: Today marks 6 months since I had my son. It is a rough day to say the least. Last night I was texting my friend about how hard today would be. Her first text today to me was complaining about how long it took to get off the cruise ship she was on and how long the line was at Cafe Du Monde. 30 minutes of texting how her morning wasn't going right. Today I don't have the strength to care about the nothing of other people's lives.
On a positive note last Wednesday I got my first ultrasound. Measuring right on track with a heart rate of 161. I sobbed when we saw that little flickering.
Questions? Not really.
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? A Vespa! In sea foam green with a side car for my dogs. I've given this a lot of thought and wished I lived in an area where a Vespa was more practical.
Next milestone/appointment? Tomorrow with my family doctor, ultrasound on Friday
and first OB appointment on 4/5.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: I'm still throwing up quite a bit, but limited nausea. It literally comes on super quick, I throw up and then things feel better. The bloat has gotten worse, it's out of control at night.
I made it through my loss milestone, but I'm nervous about my ultrasound on Friday. With my last pregnancy we only saw a sac and fetal pole, no heartbeat. I just hope that everything is measuring on track with a nice little heartbeat.
Questions? Not this week.
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? Not really a car person, I guess maybe a Yukon Denali. Eventually we will need a bigger vehicle.
@lilwonder and @comealongponds FX for a good appointment today!
@missameliapond It doesn't hurt to ask for another blood test. H has a motorcycle and I refuse to ride it with him. It is way too scary. Except one time we went to a friends a little over a mile down the road (strait shot, barley any turns). I refused to bring 2 vehicles so I rode on the motorcycle with him. He doesn't have helmets so I wore my snowboarding helmet. I was terrified the whole ride.
Weeks: 6
Next milestone/appointment? Ultrasound tomorrow! I am so nervous. I am terrified of seeing an empty sac again.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: My symptoms went away last week and caused me to freak out and become anxious. This weekend nausea started up again but a little worse than it was before. Still not throwing up. I am just thankful to feel anything at this point.
Questions? nope
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? Chevy Suburban would be more on the realistic side and the Cadillac Escalade would be more fantasy. I love big vehicles. My parents have always had a conversion van (the ones with the high top and the TV inside). That is what I learned to drive on so small vehicles feel weird.
- BFP: 3/10/16 — Baby Girl born 11/20/16
TTC#2 April 2019Next milestone/appointment? 4/7 ultrasound, still over a week away, sigh....
Rant/Rave/Anything else: I was complaining on Saturday to my husband about not feeling morning sickness. Saturday comes and I'm miserable All Day Long :-( and then this morning I threw up. I never threw up with my DD, so that was new. So far I've been OK since that incident but I guess I shouldn't have complained about feeling good because I think I jinxed it.
Questions? nope
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? I would have my car now but with more trunk space, 2015 Subaru Outback.
Weeks: 7w 3d
Next milestone/appointment? 4/5 for the 1st appointment and I'm assuming an ultrasound. Today is 3 months since we found out we'd lost our last baby. I've just been trying to stay busy and ignore it I think.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: We actually ended up telling my husband's family at Easter. We weren't planning one way or the other, but it ended up feeling right.
Questions? Does anybody else have a FitBit or other device that tracks your heart rate? I'm starting to get really scared because my resting heart rate is not at all elevated. With the last pregnancy it was clear to see the trend of an elevated rate that started with ovulation. And from looking online that is what's supposed to happen. But this time there was a slight peak right before ovulation but it went back to baseline and has stayed there. Do you guys think this is a reason to contact my MD?
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? Well last year I was finally able to get my first SUV which has been great. Since we live out in the country it was really nice to have a better vehicle in the snow this winter. Unrealistically, I'd love to have a Ford Mustang with a manual transmission. My first car was a stick shift and I loved driving it!
TTC 6/15 - Positive Test 7/30/15 - MC 8/4/15
Positive 10/1/15 - MC 12/28/15
Positive 3/3/16 - EDD 11/11/16
@ash111916 I wish I still had a convertible. I traded my last car (VW EOS) in for a more practical one & SO wish I had both!
@MissAmeliaPond I think you should request another HCG check. You have a history of loss. I don't think it is unreasonable to request that they check it and your progesterone level.
@comealongponds I hope you don't get hammered later with MS, but I find it awesome that you're cooking 2 and not horribly sick.
@emmieann22 loss milestone days are the worst. Creepy internet stranger hugs to you.
@m6agua FX & @EDK2010 FX for a great US. Try not to stress. It's SO hard. I know!!
@rspalding001 Sorry you threw up. I hope it's not the start of something worse. I will feel like I jinxed myself too.
I hope I didn't miss anyone!
Weeks: 4+5
Next Milestone/Appointment: I have another check of labs and first US on Thursday AM. It's so early I am only expecting to see a gestational sac. I think that it may even be too early for yolk sac. I have a weekly RE check with US and labs until they release me to my OB. I think that will happen around 8 weeks.
Rant/Rave/Question/Anything else?: I need to stop POAS. I did one again this AM. The test line is visible before the pee makes it all the way to the end and it's as dark as the control before 5 mins is up. They aren't going to tell me anything anymore other than if they start to fade. I'm doing everything in my power to remain optimistic that third time is a charm. My nipples are sore, my boobs are starting to feel swollen/hard, and I'm gassy/bloated a lot, but other than that I am feeling pretty decent. By the evening my body feels tired and all I want to do is lie down but the fatigue isn't overwhelming or anything. I'm taking comfort in having at least "something" symptom-wise. With my losses the symptoms never advanced much beyond this and/or lessened some. Only time will tell.
GTKY: I really like my car I have now, an Audi Q5 except for the fact it's part of the VW diesel scandal! I think that once the baby comes I may need a bigger car (carting a baby and 2 dogs around in my car would be tough) & I want a Q7. I was in one at the car show in January and it's a lot fancier inside than my car. I'm not really a car person so I can't really think of a sports car that is a must have.

I hope all goes well on Friday and that they give you the blood test you want. We're due on the same day so I am right there along with you!
Weeks: 5w2d
Next milestone/appointment? Ultrasound on 4/11
Rant/Rave/Anything else: Beta numbers are looking good, so no more blood draws for now.
Questions? Wondering whether or not to tell some of my nearest and dearest? Part of me wants to tell them the good news (since I only got to share bad news the last three times) but part of me wants to wait until the ultrasound (2 weeks just seems so far away right now)
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? Right now my dream vehicle is anything bigger than the one I have. I have a Corolla and just don't see that being very practical with a toddler, new born, and hauling groceries or whatever else. Hubby seems to think I'll get by just fine. We'll see...
@jrussell16 Sorry about your spotting. Hopefully it stops soon to give you some peace of mind.
@EmmieAnn22 Sorry your friend wasn't more understanding to your needs.
Good luck to everyone having ultrasounds this week!

@af2013nl obviously you have to do what feels right to you, but personally I've found comfort in telling people. My husband and I have taken the attitude "well these are the people we'd tell if things went badly, so let's tell them while it's happy." It's also helped me to get a little more excited because I can see their excitement that isn't tainted by the fear we feel.

FX for your tomorrow @m6agua!
Next milestone/appointment? I got a call this morning that my first appointment with the OB will be this Wednesday morning! It will include an ultrasound. I am feeling so nervous, but I'm glad I only have 2 days to panic.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: I was feeling great this weekend, even through all the Easter festivities and pretend drinking. Today I feel like I've been hit by a bus. I am sitting here downing Chex mix that I made because I wasn't capable of eating anything else for lunch.
I'm going to my u/s by myself because my H will be home with our kids and my neice who we will be watching. I had hoped he's be able to go with me. :-(
Questions? Nope
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? We were approved for a car loan on Friday, and are going minivan shopping this weekend. If anyone has a recommendation, I'll take it!
BFP 3.8.16 EDD 11.20.16
Next milestone/appointment? 4/14, next ultrasound. I've already had 2. No bleeding since that 1 day early on and it looked like the SCH was gone on the last ultrasound check.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: Rant: my appt on Friday started with a CRNP who admitted to me that she's not good at using the ultrasound machine. She couldn't find the baby and had to call the doctor in, who then found it. It was a fucking terrifying 5 minutes and I wish she wouldn't have tried to use the machine if she didn't know how. I'm still salty about it, but I should just be thankful that the doctor said everything looks on track. At 7w4d, I was measuring 7w2d and the heartbeat was 140. Praying that this baby keeps growing. Even though the doctor said it's normal, I still wish the size would match up exactly with the day.
Rave: H is bringing me Chipotle for dinner and I could not be more excited for it.
Questions? Not at the moment.
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? Yellow jeep would be pretty awesome.

BFP #4: 5/20/18. EDD 1/23/19.
Next milestone/appointment? Ultrasound on Thursday. I'm pretty nervous. I just want it to be over already.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: I have been so nauseous lately. I definitely wasn't this sick during my last pregnancy. It's just like my hangovers- I know I'd feel better if I could throw up but I can't.
Questions? Any STM's have good ideas for entertaining my toddler while I lie around feeling sick? She's been watching an embarrassing amount of TV lately.
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? @kns1988a yellow Jeep Wrangler was my dream car FOREVER!! Also sorry that CRNP gave you such a scare. That blows.
Anyway back to the car thing, if I had to answer now I'd just want my little gold ford ranger back. I had that truck in college and I looked really good in it. I don't think it'll be a practical choice for me for a long time though
edited because the mobile app is a whore.
Next milestone/appointment? Nurse check-in and first u/s on April 21 - it seems like such a long time to wait!
Rant/Rave/Anything else: I almost bust out with the news yesterday during a family video chat for the shock factor because my mom and SIL were chatting in the kitchen (behind the laptop) and my dad, brother, and grandpa were in front of it and I was curious how long it would take for the ladies to catch on. But I am so not ready for everyone my mom is going to tell so I held it in.
Questions? Anyone else feeling itchy? I've been getting super itchy in spurts - my scalp, my tummy, back/shoulders, legs. It also could just be the weather changing drying out my skin, but I'm willing to take any pregnancy symptoms I can!
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? I think Fiats are so cute!
Next milestone/appointment? First ultrasound was scheduled for 4/4, but it's been moved up to 3/30 because I've been cramping, having a lot of low back pain, and spotting
Rant/Rave/Anything else: Just a lot of nerves. My betas look good- they went from 102 on 3/15 to 7,172 on 3/22, but my progesterone dropped from 42.8 to 18.7. I started spotting yesterday. I'm trying to stay optimistic, but it's not easy. Hopefully, I'll find out one way or another at my ultrasound Wednesday.
Questions? Has anyone else experienced a big drop in progesterone? 18.7 is still a good number, according to my OB, so I haven't been put on supplement. I'm just worried that there was such a large drop, and I'm wondering if anyone else has ever had a similar experience.
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? We just got a new (to us) vehicle about 6 months ago. It's a white 2012 Mazda CX-9, and I absolutely love it. Honestly, it is the perfect SUV for our family. If I could upgrade, I'd totally get the 2016 CX-9. I used to be all about Toyotas, but this vehicle has converted me to a Mazda lover.

BFP 01/28/2019, EDD 09/29/2019
Weeks: 8
Next milestone/appointment? April 14th! Getting closer but still so far!
Rant/Rave/Anything else: We got through our EDD milestone Saturday. It was a rough day but we were so thankful for this little dumpling to help get us through. I actually had a good apt with my nurse today and was given some good snack ideas to help with my fatigue.
Questions? nope!
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? I have never been into cars that much at all and probably couldn't tell the best from the worst apart. I have always liked old Camaros though!
I posted an update in the u/s thread, but thought I should post here as well. I was pretty freaked out the entire appt, until we saw the heartbeat, at the end. It's currently at 125 and baby is measuring at 6w6d. Everything looks good and right on track (I'm 7w based on my LMP).
With my last pregnancy the first u/s I had was at almost 9w and the heartbeat was up in the 160's, so when I heard this one was so low I freaked for a moment... then I was reminded that it won't spike for another week or so. It's hard not to be on edge with every little thing, right!?
Good thoughts for everything else that has appts. this week! May you soar through them ease and flying colors! I feel like all of our nerves deserve a break!
ETA (because it's cute): My mother in law came with me today, to the u/s appt. My husband 100% couldn't get out of a meeting he was attending, didn't want me to go alone, etc. She and I have a very close relationship, so it wasn't weird to have her with me or anything. It was adorable because the last time I think she had seen a u/s like that was when she was pregnant with my husband 31 years ago... and even then it was much later in her pregnancy. It was really sweet to see her tear up with big proud-mama feelings.

BFP #2: 03/09/16, EDD: 11/16/16
Weeks: 8! My latest loss milestone is tomorrow and I'll feel much better once that is past.
Next milestone/appointment? April 6th. Ultrasound and then I move on from my RE to an OB.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: Tomorrow is a special milestone. I found out I was pregnant with my daughter the day my grandmother died (March 8, 2010.) A few days later, I was cramping and bleeding horribly so I went to emerg. My beta was something like 13,000 and the u/s was indeterminate. They thought I was around 7w by LMP. I was told the pregnancy was definitely failed. A D&C was brought up. I was almost positive I'd seen two sacs on the ultrasound so I asked for a repeat U/S in two weeks. I had multiple betas between that initial visit and my repeat ultrasound. My beta plateaued around 35,000 and then started climbing slowly again. They kept preparing me for bad news, but I was pretty sure I was still pregnant and that I was experiencing a vanished twin. Then on March 29th, 2010, I went in for my repeat ultrasound and there she was, little heart beating away, and one small sac where her twin had been. I was 10 days earlier than they'd calculated (I ovulated REALLY late on Clomid) and it'd been twins, which is why the beta was so high. I'm so glad I asked for that second ultrasound. I'm always going to remember that day. Quite honestly one of the best days of my life, seeing that little blob with a heartbeat.
Questions?
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? Honestly, I absolutely love my little car and I don't want anything else.

I do worry that some providers jump to conclusions a little too quickly sometimes which may very well result in potentially viable pregnancies being terminated unknowingly. Which is why I share my story fairly openly.

I have an ultrasound tomorrow and I'm too nervous to update before then! I'll be back tomorrow afternoon with word on my baby bird.
Awesome Kid #2: Due November 2016!
Next milestone/appointment? 1st midwife appointment on Wednesday! Next milestone will be seeing a good ultrasound, whenever that will be
Rant/Rave/Anything else: I'm still very calm and not worrying, but I realized that I'm so focused on being in the present that I can't picture this pregnancy in the future. I got a save the date for a wedding in October that's going to be a weekend thing at a campground (with cabins, not tent camping). I was all ready to RSVP before I remembered that I "might" be hugely pregnant then and wouldn't want to sleep on a bunk bed. I'm sad my PGAL brain automatically put a "might" in there. I thought I was doing so well!
Questions?
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? I love my prius. I'm not super into cars. DH dreams of having an Audi. We'll see...
@jrussell16 I hope they fit you in for an ultrasound! Sounds like you've had a hard weekend. Hang in there, mama!
@lilwonder Yay!!! Congratulations on your happy ultrasound!!!
@ash111916 I hope your bloat goes away!
@MissAmeliaPond I'm so glad your dinosaur blob is doing well! Excellent choice in nickname, btw
@comealongponds Yay for happy ultrasound and DH getting to see the heartbeats!
@EmmieAnn22 I'm sorry your friend wasn't there for you on what I imagine must be an incredibly difficult day. *hugs*
@EDK2010 FX for a happy ultrasound on Friday!
@m6agua I hope your ultrasound goes well. Let us know! And I totally get being thankful for nausea. I've barely had any, but today I had no appetite and was delighted
@rspalding001 Sorry your morning sickness got so bad so quickly!
@Randerson42 I wouldn't be worried about your heart rate. It's supposed to increase later in the pregnancy when blood volume increases. At any rate, a slight increase or decrease (or lack of change) in heart rate isn't cause for concern as long as you're not symptomatic (dizzy, light-headed, sweaty, can't think straight, etc.).
@MrsBinPA I still POAS occasionally. There's something so very satisfying about seeing that dark, dark second line!
@Af2013nl Welcome! Glad your betas look good! I'm telling pretty much everyone I'm close to this time. Like you, I just told pretty much everyone the bad news last time. I want their support no matter what so I'm not hiding it. That being said, waiting 2 weeks for your ultrasound isn't thaaaaat long, even though it probably feels like forever!
@MollySm Yay for such a soon first appointment and ultrasound! Hmm...chex mix actually sounds kinda good. I will add that to my list of possibly acceptable foods.
@kns1988 Ugh, that ultrasound sounds like it was terrifying. I'm glad everything turned out ok!
@SRose109 Sorry you're feeling so gross
@lajoliedreamer My back is more itchy than usual. I think it's the weird pregnancy skin. My back isn't oily or anything, but it's breaking out like crazy.
@recontrezmoiI'm not sure about progesterone. I hope your ultrasound on Wednesday goes well. I'll be thinking good thoughts for you. Let us know how it goes *hug*
@honeybeewebb2424 I'm glad you got through your EDD milestone ok.
@KilgraveMadeMeDoIt Wow, that is an incredible story! Thank you for sharing

Next milestone/appointment? We are 3 weeks past our loss milestone. Ultrasound is Thursday and really hoping all is well and stays that way. Excited and nervous.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: I'm trying not to read into my symptoms too much... I only seem to get a bit nauseous once a day and my boobs are sore when I get up but get better as the day goes on.
Questions? Nothing I can think of.
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? Fully loaded 4 door Jeep Wrangler... A bit out of the budget right now.

@comealongponds glad everything is looking good!
@killgravemademedoit hope your doing ok today. Your story is amazing. It's crazy how often our intuition turns out to be right.
@missameliapond yay for good results!
I had my ultrasound this morning. Measuring a few days behind but my O date could be a day off, also I do think I implanted late. I thought I was 6w1d but they said I am 5w5d/6d. Also I was a small baby at 5lb6oz so that could be a factor also. She thought there was a heartbeat but it was hard to tell. I go back in 2 weeks to check again. I was so thankful the sac wasn't empty.
ETA sending good vibes to everyone else with appointments this week.

Next milestone/appointment? Had 3 beta draws last week--over double both times. Doc office sent in the order to do an US this Thu or Fri to check that baby is in my uterus.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: I wish doctors offices weren't so slow to call back!!!
Questions?
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? I would like a "fancy" but practical car--like a Lexus or something. But with pink pearl paint. haha

Miracle #3: EDD 11/28/16
Weeks: 8+4
Next milestone/appointment? We had our 2nd ultrasound today. At first the sac looked empty for like a full minute. I almost cried on the table. Then we saw the baby but I could not see any movement/flickering. But finally, finally!!! We saw the little heartbeat and a perfect sized baby!
Our loss milestone is at 9 weeks on Friday, but I feel like we are kind of "there" because we made it past our first 2 ultrasounds. But still... So nervous!
RE wants me back for one more ultrasound in 2 weeks, then I am released my OB.
Rant/Rave/Anything else: I'm still getting over the scare from my u/s today.
Questions? Nerp
GTKY: What is your dream vehicle (realistic, practical or not, however you want to answer)? I would love to have a convertible one day, but I'd really love to have a family big enough to warrant a suburban!
Awesome Kid #2: Due November 2016!
Yay @m6agua!!!
Thanks @zrain! Ya'll are really helping me be a little more relaxed.
@redhead0917 So sorry to hear about your ectopic, that has been such a big fear of mine. Praying that everything is where it belongs now!
