Not too much to update. My next OB appt is next Friday and I will schedule my GTT. I so hope I pass the one hour and don't have to do the three hour! We've decided on the name Roman Christopher. We're not telling family so we've just started caling him by name while at home. Here's my 24 week pic:

Yeah - finally not the last update of the day! Things are settling in here a little. Payton is officially 2 weeks old today. She is gaining weight but they want her to gain more so I may have to start suplementing with formula. We will see as of Monday - when she goes in for another wieght check.
Congrats to all the BFPs this week - there have been quite a few! I am lurking and hoping for those in the wait and cycling. GL ladies!

Hi, ladies! I am always quietly lurking and cheering y'all on. Congrats to all of the recent BFPs and GOOD LUCK to Heather on your upcoming beta.
Avery will be 3 months old next Wednesday. I can't believe I have a 3 month old. She is such a joy, always smiling and cooing, I am so thankful to have her in my life. Here's a pic of her watching the TV.
For this child I prayed, and the LORD has given me my petition which I asked of him.

I love this part of the week! i can't see pics at work though, so I have to wait until later.
I had beta #4 today and it was 964! More than doubled which I'm excited about. I have my first u/s scheduled for April 11 and then the second for April 20. If all goes well, I will be released to my obgyn after!
Congratulations to all the BFPs! I hope they keep coming.
It is so great that you now get to be a part of this check-in.
What a great beta #. Good luck on the 11th! Can't wait to see you post the 1st u/s pic. How exciting.

We have our anatomy scan tomorrow! I can not believe it.
And, I have to brag about LGL. I have been meaning to write a blog post about this but have been lazy with getting a photo. She sent me an adorable blanket she made for our babe. Sooo sweet! Hopefully I will post the pic next week.
Love & luck to my 3TC girls. Congrats to Omega-The boys are here!
If there's one thing I've learned while waiting my turn,
it's that in each life some rain falls but you also get some sun.
After 2 years & 2 losses, our little man arrived 8-2011.

Aw, what great pictures! Payton and Avery are darling! You look great, Sara! Congratulations, trish! And yay for the scan tomorrow, Amber! I can't wait to hear!!
Things here are good! I'll be 36 weeks this weekend. We have our "alternative" birthing class this weekend, so that should be fun! I've been struggling a bit with my blood pressure but the readings were good yesterday, so I'm hopeful I can keep it under control.
We had maternity photos taken a few weeks back as part of a package with newborn pics (I was on the fence about maternity ones but it was a great deal). Here's the preview if anyone wants to check it out:
Trish, congrats again and good luck on your first u/s!!
williaw, it is so hard to believe Avery is almost 3 monts old! What a cutie!
Amber, good luck at your anatomy scan! So, exciting! That was really nice of LGL to make your LO a blanket!

Riley and Scherpa- The babes are just adorable!
Well girls, I have less than a week to go. I don't get internals so this baby can be here any day. I have an induction set for April 8 if baby does not show by then. I'm hoping not to use it.
Okay- I've never taken a bare belly but here is 39w:

Ok so things are really moving along over here. My babies want to come out. I had a test that came back positive for preterm labor in the next 2 weeks. I was able to come home, but have to return to the hospital at the first sign of labor. I'm a little scared since it will be a c/sections plus my guys are still too small. I had a growth scan today and Baby A weighs 2lbs 11oz and Baby B is 2lbs 4oz. If preterm labor is an issue they will do what they can to keep them in longer, we shall wait and see how this goes. I will keep you ladies updated.
Here is a picture of what I see when I am sitting and looking down...
I wanted to wish all my 3T girls the best of luck... STL GL with this IVF! H1 I have everything crossed for you love!
I guess I get to be part of this now, which is awesome!! Today, we went for my first ultrasound at 6weeks 4 days. The RE said everything looked exactly perfect! We saw the heartbeat (160 bpm) too! So excited bc it finally seems real : ) We go back on the 18th for ultrasound number 2 and then I will graduate.

yay! I get to post in this! Yesterday we had an appointment with my RE and got to see the gestational sac and yolk! There was no fluid or evidence of a subchorionic hematoma which is also good. I never got my betas drawn because he said since he can see fetal growth and its an intrauterine pregnancy, betas aren't necessary. My progesterone level is borderline though so I have to add that to my geriatric pill box. I'm just so excited to be this far along!
Izabella Grace was born on Tuesday 3/22/2011 after a long labor 27hrs, and a csection after some distress for the baby. She had a NICU stay but was discharged home with us and she has been doing well since. She was born at 37 and 5/7 days and was 7lbs 3oz. We didn't know the sex until my husband was asked to stand and tell the room what our child was, and oh what a moment it was. He wanted to be the one to present the reveal, not the MDs or Nurses. It was an amazing moment and so emotional in the best of ways. She is doing well and we are in love and overjoyed with everything. Like many have said before it is so worth everything we have all been thru when you get to this moment.
I'm going to try and post a pic, but am never good at that, so we'll see how it goes. I know I post only occasionally but figured many would want to see this update and we are soo excited to finally be parents. Blessings to Everyone and best of luck for a slew of BFPs very soon, hopefully April will be a GREAT month.
We have our anatomy scan tomorrow! I can not believe it.
And, I have to brag about LGL. I have been meaning to write a blog post about this but have been lazy with getting a photo. She sent me an adorable blanket she made for our babe. Sooo sweet! Hopefully I will post the pic next week.
Squeeee! I can't wait to hear the results of your anatomy scan!
And, that LGL, she is a sweetie. What a very kind thing to do for someone!

Hi ladies! I unfortunately don't have any updates. I went in for what was supposed to be my NT Scan on Tuesday, and the Kaiser OB said they only do b/w first, then if anything comes back that raises concern, then they'll do the u/s. I didn't even get to hear the heartbeat
I now have a home doppler so I can hear the heartbeat anytime I get anxious, so that's nice. Other than that things are going well. I have another appt end of April, then my anatomy scan in May
Keep those BFP's coming! I'm rooting for all you lovely ladies
I'm so jealous of the home doppler! I have totally been looking them up on Amazon. Which one did you get?
I'm sorry you didn't get to get an u/s. Will you get to have an u/s in April? I sure hope so.
It's so good to hear from you!

Hi, ladies! I am always quietly lurking and cheering y'all on. Congrats to all of the recent BFPs and GOOD LUCK to Heather on your upcoming beta.
Avery will be 3 months old next Wednesday. I can't believe I have a 3 month old. She is such a joy, always smiling and cooing, I am so thankful to have her in my life. Here's a pic of her watching the TV.
For this child I prayed, and the LORD has given me my petition which I asked of him.

It is so great that you now get to be a part of this check-in.
What a great beta #. Good luck on the 11th! Can't wait to see you post the 1st u/s pic. How exciting.
I can't believe you have a 3 month old! I remember you from TTGP!
Your LO is adorable and I love that she is watching TV. My kind of girl. ;-)
We have our anatomy scan tomorrow! I can not believe it.
And, I have to brag about LGL. I have been meaning to write a blog post about this but have been lazy with getting a photo. She sent me an adorable blanket she made for our babe. Sooo sweet! Hopefully I will post the pic next week.
Love & luck to my 3TC girls. Congrats to Omega-The boys are here!
If there's one thing I've learned while waiting my turn,
it's that in each life some rain falls but you also get some sun.
After 2 years & 2 losses, our little man arrived 8-2011.
Sara-cute belly!
Scherpa-Payton is a cutie!
Williaw--3 months old already?? I want to kiss those adorable cheeks!

Amber--GL tomorrow with your scan!
Aw, what great pictures! Payton and Avery are darling! You look great, Sara! Congratulations, trish! And yay for the scan tomorrow, Amber! I can't wait to hear!!
Things here are good! I'll be 36 weeks this weekend. We have our "alternative" birthing class this weekend, so that should be fun! I've been struggling a bit with my blood pressure but the readings were good yesterday, so I'm hopeful I can keep it under control.
We had maternity photos taken a few weeks back as part of a package with newborn pics (I was on the fence about maternity ones but it was a great deal). Here's the preview if anyone wants to check it out:

Hi girls,
I'm so excited about this week's BFPs including my BFP Buddy. . . StillWaiting! We'll get to be pregnant together for about a week!
Riley and Scherpa- The babes are just adorable!
Well girls, I have less than a week to go. I don't get internals so this baby can be here any day. I have an induction set for April 8 if baby does not show by then. I'm hoping not to use it.
Okay- I've never taken a bare belly but here is 39w:
That is a great baby belly! Love it! I can't wait to see pics of your LO! I also can't believe you are about to have this baby! It seems like you just announced your BFP!

STL- I'm stalking 3T on your progress. I've got everything crossed for you girl And when baby comes, I'll be crossing those limbs too.
Ah, thanks! I need all the luck I can get. Right now its looking like this cycle might get pushed back until the end of May. I'm really hoping that it doesn't.

Ok so things are really moving along over here. My babies want to come out. I had a test that came back positive for preterm labor in the next 2 weeks. I was able to come home, but have to return to the hospital at the first sign of labor. I'm a little scared since it will be a c/sections plus my guys are still too small. I had a growth scan today and Baby A weighs 2lbs 11oz and Baby B is 2lbs 4oz. If preterm labor is an issue they will do what they can to keep them in longer, we shall wait and see how this goes. I will keep you ladies updated.
Here is a picture of what I see when I am sitting and looking down...
I wanted to wish all my 3T girls the best of luck... STL GL with this IVF! H1 I have everything crossed for you love!
This! All the babies & bellies are looking adorable:)
I guess I get to be part of this now, which is awesome!! Today, we went for my first ultrasound at 6weeks 4 days. The RE said everything looked exactly perfect! We saw the heartbeat (160 bpm) too! So excited bc it finally seems real : ) We go back on the 18th for ultrasound number 2 and then I will graduate.
Hoping lots of others will get their BFP soon!
Love the pic! Looks like you are all boobs and babies! I'm still sending lots of T&Ps to you and your LOs. Stay in there and keep growing little guys!

SHE's HERE!!!!
Izabella Grace was born on Tuesday 3/22/2011 after a long labor 27hrs, and a csection after some distress for the baby. She had a NICU stay but was discharged home with us and she has been doing well since. She was born at 37 and 5/7 days and was 7lbs 3oz. We didn't know the sex until my husband was asked to stand and tell the room what our child was, and oh what a moment it was. He wanted to be the one to present the reveal, not the MDs or Nurses. It was an amazing moment and so emotional in the best of ways. She is doing well and we are in love and overjoyed with everything. Like many have said before it is so worth everything we have all been thru when you get to this moment.
I'm going to try and post a pic, but am never good at that, so we'll see how it goes. I know I post only occasionally but figured many would want to see this update and we are soo excited to finally be parents. Blessings to Everyone and best of luck for a slew of BFPs very soon, hopefully April will be a GREAT month.
Squeeee! I can't wait to hear the results of your anatomy scan!
And, that LGL, she is a sweetie. What a very kind thing to do for someone!
I'm so jealous of the home doppler! I have totally been looking them up on Amazon. Which one did you get?
I'm sorry you didn't get to get an u/s. Will you get to have an u/s in April? I sure hope so.
It's so good to hear from you!
I just wanted to thank all of you who continue to come back and share with us and support us. It really means a lot to me. Im glad you are all doing well and everyone is looking great.
Jill i LOVE your photos! I am so happy to see so many outside babies!!
Mari keep those babies cooking!
Papps we request bump pics!
Thank you all for sharing!! xoxox
