Updates: Last week, I was feeling baby movement. njkaren's cervix looks good and she has her next OB appt on the 12th. jcsntms06 joined our group - her DD was born at 33w4d due to pre-e. Thomas2013 was 26 weeks, the same as when she had her DS, and all is well. ijack is having another girl and all looked well on her u/s, but does still have a small fibroid next to her placenta. miafromab also joined the group - her DD was born at 23 weeks due to pre-e and is due with no. 2 in late October. maybenextyear2 also joined our group - her twins were born at 31 weeks due to PTL and is 12 weeks with baby no. 3.

Re: Pregnant (& TTC) After Preemie Check-in!
I'm thinking of everyone!!
I am 28w4d and had a doctor appt today. They aren't doing cervical length u/s anymore but all signs point to things are going great!
Need help with high fat food ideas? Chunky Monkey
That's awesome, I can't wait for that!
I think I may have missed the check in last week, sorry!
Things are going great here. I'm feeling small movements every now and then, but nothing consistent yet. Definitely looking pg though! Had a Dr's appt last week and everything looked great and got to hear the hb. I have my anatomy scan sceduled for April 20th and they also start cervical checks with that appt. I'm not sure how often I'll get those yet. And I start my 17p shots that week too. Seems like so far away but we're so busy I know it will be here before I know it!
Oh, almost forgot to check in myself Nothing going on here, just anxiously awaiting my next appt on Monday. Shouldn't be a big appt, probably just a quick listen on the doppler and then I have a few boring questions, and my first 1 hour GTT. Hopefully I pass! And hopefully DD behaves herself! Then we schedule the big u/s for late April/early May. Belly pic for ya:
Please add me!
