Re: Pregnant & TTC After a Preemie Check In 7/18/13
But, I've been wanting to do the math on how many Mommies again listed in this thread went full term with baby 2 Well, it's 65.2 percent went full term. I think that stay is pretty hopeful makes me optimistic about this baby! Just thought that I would share.
Well, I had my regular check up yesterday and requested a cervical check because I just had a feeling that things were changing. I'm about 1.5cm dilated and 50% effaced. Without a history of PTL I probably wouldn't think twice about it....or even if I wasn't contracting on a daily basis, but it makes me pretty nervous. My OB wasn't too concerned, but we are moving to weekly appts now rather than the usual 36 weeks. If I can make it until next Thursday (which will be the gestation I was admitted with DS) with little to no change I will feel better....33w3days now.
2 years, 2 surgeries, 2 clomid fails, 2 IUIs, 1 loss, IVF #1 - 10/25/10 = BFP!, DS is now 3.5yrs!
TTC #2 - 6/12 surgery #3, FET #1 & 1.2 = BFN, 12/2012 FET #2 = BFP! DD is 1.5 yrs!
Surprise! 12/16/14 BFP, loss #2 12/31/14
I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
We had a great weekend celebrating my DD1's 2nd bday. My family was here visiting and everyone but my niece who is 14 left on Sunday. She is here until this coming sunday and has been a huge help with DD and has even been cleaning for me (well I offered her $20 to clean).
My dr appointment on monday went well. Ill be 33 weeks on Saturday. My dr said everything looked good and that dd's estimated weight is 4lb 11 oz which is already a pound bigger then dd was when she was born at 35 weeks. My next appointment is next friday the 26th. It will be the same time that I was diagnosed with pre e last time so I will be very happy if everything is still ok at that point.
I'm 17 wks and feeling pretty good. I have been having contractions steady, but I'm being so very closely monitored. Stop over at PB when you can!
Hello everyone!
I am new to the bored and I would like to introduce myself. I am a mother to a wonderful 23 week 6 day preemie girl who just turned 1 yesterday (8 months corrected)! She was 1 pound 3 ounces and 11 inches long at birth, today she is 17 pounds 8 ounces and 29 inches long.
My husband and have decided that in August we are going to start TTC again. We are a bit nervous and scared because she was born early do to placental abruption. We also took fertility medication (clomid) to get pregnant because I have PCOS.
I see a lot of success on her making it close to term and term. Makes me feel confident in TTC #2.
Thank you!
I hope your cervix stays put for at least another 3.5 weeks! I bet that is reassuring that OB isn't too concerned and that you are getting weekly visits from now. Hang in there!
I will add you to the list! Good luck!
Glad to hear that baby is measuring on track! FX that everything stays great and you have another good appt on the 26th.
Congrats again! Thanks for the EDD update.
I will add you to the list! Good luck! We do have a lot of inspirational/success stories and support on this board so definitely keep us updated in your journey.
Congrats I hope you have an uneventful full term pregnancy
That's great that back pains are not as bad for you. I hope that it continues to lessen with time. 31 weeks-woohoo!
Hi! I lurk on here sometimes and want to join in. We're planning on TTC-ing this September. I just got my first period today after coming off bc pills a month ago, so I'm hoping my cycle goes back to normal as I used to be regular like clockwork! I am temping right now just to see what my cycles are like.
I have a preemie born at 32 weeks due to asymmetrical IUGR which was caused by velementous cord insertion. He's now 15 months (13 months adjusted) and still on the smaller side, but doing pretty well overall!
Good luck at your dr appointment.
I'm glad your doc isn't super worried, sometimes that makes ya feel better. Hoping you have some peace of mind with going to the doc more too. That made me feel better too.
Great news! And sounds like a really nice weekend too. Keep it up!
Congratulations!!!
Glad all was ok, and congrats on making past your milestone I posted on your other post too!
Great news!
Welcome, and lots of good thoughts heading your way!
I will add you to the list! Good luck with TTC journey! Glad to hear your preemie is doing well.
I met with my dr today. She said that its a total crapshoot if I get pre e again. Ill be monitored more often and ill check my bp at home between visits and I'll pray for the best.
Talking to dh about when we will try again. I planned on when ds was 2. Dh wants to try now when he's almost 14 months. Time to reach a compromise!!
