*What is your EDD/how far along?

July 5th/30w tomorrow 

 

*What team? Pink/Blue/Green/Not sure yet?  

Pink! 

 

*How have you been feeling/doing? 

Pretty good overall--just sleepy

Bi-monthly OB appt today.  Pretty boring--doppler check and OB confirmed that LO is breech like I though  Hoping she turns in the next 6w or so. 

 

*What were your highlights and struggles this week?

DD has been grumpy the past few days--not sure if it is molars or what.  But we did go see the ducks at the park today and she loved it!  She was squealing from excitement  

 

*QOTW: If you had to do one activity with LO every day, what would it be?

Probably swimming--we both love it so much!

Congrats to jen629 for the birth of her DD!! Yay!!!

 

 

*What is your EDD/how far along? Was 11.26, now changed to 12.6, but I don't really know. 7w5d?

 

*What team? Pink/Blue/Green/Not sure yet?   No clue

 

*How have you been feeling/doing?  Besides the worrisome u/s, m/s has made my life miserable. Started taking Zofran on Tues but I am still pretty nauseous all day.

 

*Any appointments or milestones?  Next OB appt is 5.15. CVS scheduled for 5.21

 

*What were your highlights and struggles this week?  Highlight: DD has been giving me good night kisses this week before she goes in her crib. Super love. Struggle: Still having a hard time making sense of my u/s and the waiting game sucks.

 

*QOTW: If you had to do one activity with LO every day, what would it be?  Watch Jeopardy. She loves that show and she hums and sways to the theme music during final Jeopardy.

*What is your EDD/how far along? I should be 6w4d, EDD 12/15/13. *What team? Pink/Blue/Green/Not sure yet?  Not sure yet. *How have you been feeling/doing? The symptoms I did have are all gone except fatigue.  *Any appointments or milestones?  Had our first u/s this week, and we were measuring 4w5d, when we should've been 6w at least.  No fetal pole to be found.  We opted to wait two weeks, at which point we'll know for sure.  There's a very slim chance this baby could still stick, if a whole bunch of things are all off a little. *What were your highlights and struggles this week?  Dealing with the very real possibility of losing a 6th baby.  Highlight I guess is that E was very happy and loving the day of the u/s, which I really needed. *QOTW: If you had to do one activity with LO every day, what would it be? Bedtime.  She loves bedtime and it's fun to have that happy time.  Plus, I get my last two giggles of the night when we do piggies during lotion.

What is your EDD/how far along? 29 weeks....due 7/11

What team? Pink/Blue/Green/Not sure yet? Team Blue

How have you been feeling/doing? Been very painful lately and my pelvis is making walking really tough. Sucked up my pride and took a PT referral

Any appointments or milestones? Had a previa recheck last week and its only moved 2 cm and in order to have another vaginal birth it has to be 3 to 4. I know C/S aren't a big deal but not super excited about having altered lady bits and a scar.

What were your highlights and struggles this week? C is at an amazing age and is such a talker. He blows my mind with what he says and understands. I'm one proud momma

QOTW: If you had to do one activity with LO every day, what would it be? So many things bC right I can barely even walk with him but he loves being outside and just running around

*We are having a girl.
*Feeling the same, tired, crampy, sore.
*Had my L&D follow up. I'm labeled "Threatened Preterm Labor" risk. I have to go in every 2 weeks now instead of the usual 4 weeks. I a switched doctors too. Best decision I've made in a long time.
*Highlights: I'm off modified bedrest. Struggles: Having to worry about baby girl coming too early.
*QOTW: We'd go to the park. M loves slides & would play on one for hours & hours.

12/20 - 7 weeks today 

 

*What team? Pink/Blue/Green/Not sure yet?  

Just a little early to tell.  

 

*How have you been feeling/doing? 

Feeling fine - just super tired. A few twinges of nausea here and there but nothing bad. 

 

*Any appointments or milestones?

Nothing this week. Can't wait til next Wed to see if we see a h/b. 

 

*What were your highlights and struggles this week?

Really, nothing either way. Boring week.

*What is your EDD/how far along? May 9th...Can't believe I'm 38 weeks.

 

*What team? Pink/Blue/Green/Not sure yet?  Blue

 

*How have you been feeling/doing? Pretty good other than swelling.  My hands & feet are swollen-but I can't complain.  Looks like I have the chance to make it to 39 weeks.

 

*Any appointments or milestones? Appt. went okay on Tuesday.  They were a little worried about the swelling. I may get induced the end of next week. Not thrilled about that....but I ended up getting induced last time as well.

 

*What were your highlights and struggles this week? Landon has been more vocal since starting his speech-so I'm really proud of him. He's got a few new words & sounds!! I'm also pretty thrilled that we've gotten a lot of things done (or at least usable) for this LO.  I'm still hoping to go into labor on my own....we'll see.

 

*QOTW: If you had to do one activity with LO every day, what would it be? I'd love to spend the day playing hide & seek with him.  He loves it.  He & I have a lot of fun doing it.  I also like to watch him play basketball with DH.  He is so sweet. I'm afraid I'm gonna miss that when this LO is born.

*What team? Pink/Blue/Green/Not sure yet?  Not sure yet.

*Any appointments or milestones? Not yet...first appt and ultrasound is next Tuesday and I am stupidly nervous.

 

*What were your highlights and struggles this week? Highlights - had a great talk with my boss yesterday and really encouraged me work-wise, Struggles - Wondering if this pregnancy is progessing like it should and worrying I won't see a heartbeat, school has been overwhelming lately and studying has been almost non-existent b/c I can't concentrate.

 

*QOTW: If you had to do one activity with LO every day, what would it be? Cuddle time! LOL We usually have about a 20 minute window every night where we cuddle in my bed as a family and watch a little TV before DS goes to bed.

<<Peeking in>>>  Can I join the fun?????  I just got my betas back today:

16 DPO = 784  Prog = 21.2

18 DPO = 2026 

OMG, is this real!?! 

I may have to go undercover until mid-July.  I'm not sure if my SIL's are on here...I don't want them blowing my cover... 

 

luvmyducks:

Congrats to jen629 for the birth of her DD!!            Yayyyyy Jen!!!!

 

 

 

*What is your EDD/how far along?  Will have an u/s in 2 weeks to formally date the pg, but from my dates it looks like we are due 1/1/14 or 1/2/14. 

 

*What team? Pink/Blue/Green/Not sure yet?    We are team green all the way!

 

*How have you been feeling/doing?   This might sound nuts, but I "knew" I was pg 4 days before I tested.  I was nauseous and had the same lower back pain I had when pg with DD...  The nausea is ok this week but about 1x/day I feel like I'll be sick.  It's still pretty early - I didn't get m/s with DD until 6 weeks....

 

*Any appointments or milestones?  7 week u/s on 5/14, just a few days after I turn 40.  Nah, I'm not too scared.  I was recently diagnosed with Factor V Leiden and 1 MTHFR gene, so they did put me on aspirin therapy today in addition to extra folic acid.

 

*What were your highlights and struggles this week?  Highlight was great betas!

 

*QOTW: If you had to do one activity with LO every day, what would it be?  Either read together or play outside, rain or shine!

What is your EDD/how far along? EDD 6/11, 33.5 weeks!

What team? Pink/Blue/Green/Not sure yet? BLUE!

How have you been feeling/doing? Pregnancy wise I've been ok, just tired and slightly uncomfortable. But I messed up my back yesterday so that's putting me in a lot if pain at the moment. It's getting better so I hope I'm back to normal soon!

Any appointments or milestones? I was on bedrest with DD at 32w so I'm excited that is not the case so far this time! I start the BPP/NSTs 2x a week next week. Excited to see our little guy again and pray my BP stays under control!

What were your highlights and struggles this week? Highlights avoiding bedrest so far and feeling this little dude move like crazy! Struggles my back combined with DD wanting me to hold her constantly. I just can't and I feel bad :

QOTW: If you had to do one activity with LO every day, what would it be? Read books she loves them! She also loves to play outside its just exhausting for me right now :
