Today I am officially a member of second trimester for the first time ever! I am so happy about this, and can't believe my body has let this LO do so good!
At the same time I'm still feeling a lot of anxiety, although I think most of that is coming from my RE experiences the last week and the fact that Saturday is the one-year anniversary of my first miscarriage.
On Saturday, I have a wedding to photograph so part of me hopes that I'll be so busy that day that I won't even have time to think about my six-month old little girl that should be sitting here next to me. My SIL will be photographing with me and this is her first wedding assisting so feel like I'll be so distracted making sure she gets everything right that I won't have time to grieve until the wedding is over. The weird part is, is that last year we had a doppler check scheduled for the Monday after we found out. We also have a doppler check scheduled next Monday. Talk about deja vu. If I can just make it through this weekend I think I'll feel better.
Re: First time ever in second trimester :)
Congrats on second tri! I hope the weekend goes by quickly for you, and Monday brings you some peace of mind when you see/hear your LO!
Good luck at the wedding, too!
Kelly, Mom to Christopher Shannon 9.27.06, Catherine Quinn 2.24.09, Trey Barton lost on 12.28.09, Therese Barton lost on 6.10.10, Joseph Sullivan 7.23.11, and our latest, Victoria Maren 11.15.12
Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck. Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.

Congratulations on making it to your second trimester!
What a huge milestone!
Good luck this weekend at the wedding. That's kinda neat that your SIL is photographing with you, I hope that she provides a great distraction for you and that you make it out of your weekend okay.
