How far along are you? What size fruit is your baby this week? 7 weeks today. Sweet pea, maybe?? Still too superstitious to put up a ticker... Do you have any upcoming appointments or milestones? My dating ultrasound is next Thursday. First ultrasound was last Friday and we got to see a little blob with a flicker of a heartbeat. QOTW: What are some ways you have been dealing with the PgAL fears? I haven't been dealing very well. I've reached out to a few moms who are either pregnant with their rainbow or have already had their rainbow, and that's helped to confirm that some if my feelings about all of this are pretty normal [thanks, Heather!]. Honestly, I don't have a lot of fears about being PgAL right now, because this part of pregnancy is not where I've had problems. My fear will become more intense the closer I get to the end. I'm just having some difficulty with the conflicting emotions right now. Wondering if maybe we jumped into this a little too soon?! No going back now, and I feel guilty for even admitting that, but that's just where I'm at right now. Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? I've been so sick, it's been a struggle for me to get through each day. A lot of the time, I want to just go on with my life without being focused on the fact that I'm pregnant again, but that's hard to do when I feel so awful all the time. Also thinking a lot about Virginia, as always.

Hijacking post -- I just realized you are 6 months our from losing Virginia. I was 6 months out from our loss of Sydney when I got pregnant too. Thinking of you!!!

i am fully cooked tomorrow and baby is a watermelon  

Do you have any upcoming appointments or milestones?

Hopefully I wont make it to my appointment on Monday. My milestone is to have this baby!! (preferably by the end of the weekend-I cant wait to meet him!)

QOTW: What are some ways you have been dealing with the PgAL fears?

 I just try to remind myself that this is a different pregnancy with a different outcome. I pray for Avery to watch over her brother and I believe she is. 

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?

I'm just really excited to meet my rainbow. I'm anxious and paranoid and elated all at the same time.

QOTW: What are some ways you have been dealing with the PgAL fears? I talk to my grief counselor and another friend who is due 4 days ahead of me with her subsequent subsequent.

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Not much. Just getting ready for a "winter storm" that we're probably not going to get.
