Trying to Get Pregnant
** TTGP Grad Check-In**
This discussion has been closed.
Re: ** TTGP Grad Check-In**
Good morning ladies! This is my first grad check in too! I really miss the action on this board. (I can miss a whole day and it only takes me half an hour to get caught up on both the Dec. and first tri. boards.) I especially miss cute of the day!
Anyways, this pregnancy has been a little rocky so far. I've had spotting twice and will get the results from my betas today. I have yet to have both spotting and a viable pregnancy, but I'm trying to remain hopeful. Symptoms have been pretty mild, lots of CM, a sensitive sniffer, BLOAT, and fatigue.
I think of you all often! Hope to see you on first tri!
Hello all! I'm doing pretty well here, just a little nausea here and there, but no full blown morning sickness. I am pretty freaking hungry all the time though, so I guess I prefer that symptom instead.
I have a little blueberry in there today! First ultrasound is Thursday, so I'm a bit nervous and very excited about that.
So nice to see how everyone's bumps are progressing! Can't wait until I have something to show other than bloatiness.
Hi there!
Nothing new to report here! I thought I had m/s last week but I think it was just nerves. Only symptoms are super sore bewbies and peeing a lot. I have my first u/s on Friday which is exciting

Wow, you look great, atl! I will have everything crossed that the girls stay put until YH is back in town.
Last Wednesday was a busy news day for us. I found out I passed the 1 hour GTT test. My doctor decided to test me early because of family history. Whew! I won't have to do that again until the normal time.
We also heard back from the genetic counselor and the NT results were great, combining in the blood work results decreased our risk of each of the types of Trisomy quite a bit. I'm 35, so that was a big relief!
Finally, we also scheduled our anatomy scan for May 12th. Everything is moving right along! I feel great, except for still being exhausted. I have a bump pic from last week - my bump grew quite a bit in the last two weeks and I wanted to document it - but I am not posting it. I am wearing my grubby clothes and look awful.
Time is really flying! Can't wait to see more news of baby arrivals in the check in thread, so many are getting so close.
Awww, I was waiting for this post to see if you'd post a bump pic and now I'll have to wait until tonight. Work blocked blogger. Grrrr.... I'm sure you have the cutest bump, and I'm glad to hear you're feeling better!
Ladies, I have an elective u/s this Saturday. I can't wait to find out what sex Baby is. I will report it in next week's check-in
My hunger has stepped up again so it's back to snacking every 2 hours. I'm still waiting for my 2nd tri energy and sleeping has been on and off. Other than that I am fine.
As for me, I had my first apt last week. No u/s or Doppler.
You look great Kelli
Hi everyone, I can't believe all the bfp's!
So I'm a day over 14 weeks and my next OB appt is two weeks from today where we'll make my appt for the 20 week ultrasound. SOOO excited about that, and hope baby cooperates and shows us his/her goodies! Feeling pretty much back to normal with the exception of all the headaches I've been getting.
Still no weight gain yet, but I swear I've felt 2 or 3 flutters, and only when lying still. I can't weight for those everyday movements!
Its been a LONG time since I've checked in, so some of you might be surprised to learn I'm full term!!
Things are going really well. My doctor doesn't do internals so I have no idea what my "progression" is like, but I know he dropped into position and I've had some pretty painful BH contractions recently. I'm hoping he comes sometime next week!
Here I am this past weekend at 37w3d
ETA: I just realized that the picture number says 27weeks. Oops! Gotta fix that!
Morning Ladies... Wow I never thought the day would come that I would be posting on this!! I still feel pretty good, sore nipples and a little nausea.. I also cant wait to get in to bed at the end of the day. Sooo Tired! I have my first u/s May 2nd, We will find out then if we are having twins..
Miss you girls so much...
Morning Ladies!
Everyone looks so great!
Altb, bless your heart for carrying those precious babies. I can't wait to hear when they arrive!
All is well here with me. Second trimester starts either today or tomorrow depending on how you look at it but I am so excited and cannot believe how fast first trimester went. I am still feeling pretty tired but haven't had any sick spells in quite some time so that is a plus. This weekend I am taking a little trip to Florida for a destination wedding so I am looking forward to some relaxing time on the beach!
I lurk all the time, and am constantly rooting for all of TTGP to get their BFPs!
I'm 38 weeks and waiting...not much else to report. I am ready for baby girl to arrive anytime she's ready. I'm starting maternity leave on Friday (thank the lord!). More info in my blog (link in siggy) if you're interested. Always rooting for you ladies!
Here I am today!
you're gorgeous atlb!!!!!!!!!!!
soooo tickled to see you here my love!
btsrc: so glad to hear your scan went good!
Wi-Mommy: congrats! I missed your BFP
Miller: You look adorable!
Mrs.B: I can't believe you're in the 3rd tri already...craziness. GL at your glucose test!
McGee: you look AWESOME! Congrats on making it to full term.
We had our a/s last Thursday and confirmed that little girl is in fact, still a girl
And everything looked great. She wiggled the entire time, I think the tech was getting a little frustrated! hah. I'm doing great, and tomorrow I'm half-baked! I feel her constantly and I just love it. Everything else is going great, just chugging right along...August will be here before we know it!
Kerr! You look beautiful love! I can't believe your LO is almost here!
Yay! I love Tuesdays.
I'm officially in 2nd tri now, which is super exciting. We had our monthly appointment last week, and all looks good. We also got our NT Scan results back (great news!).
I'm continuing to feel better, though today has been kinda rough! As usual, I'm at work, so I can't attach a pic - but feel free to visit my blog for weekly bump pics! https://cupcakesandrunningshoes.blogspot.com
GL to all the TTGP ladies!!
Hello ladies!!!
Everyone looks fantastic!! Things here are going well. We find out the gender on April 30th and I can't wait!! I feel kicks and bumps every now and then and am loving it. My placenta is anterior and I think it's dampening it a bit ... poor DH is just dying to feel the LO kick. Hopefully he will soon.
Here's a bump pic from today ... 22wk1d.
MT, you are SO cute!

Hi Ladies! I haven't checked in with you in a long time. I'll be 22 weeks tomorrow, boy did that go fast. We found out we are having a boy and are very excited because we were both convinced we would only have girls. lol
And here is my bump pic from 21 weeks.
Best of luck to everyone and congrats on the BFPs!!
Hi ladies!
Everyone looks great! It will be awhile before I have a picture that is anything other than post-stim bloat.
I don't have much to report just yet. I'm just shy of 7 weeks and have a second u/s next week. The ultrasound last week showed one perfect little baby otter (or "blob" according to DH :P). We hope to see the heartbeat next week since it was too early last week.
I miss you ladies and hope everyone is doing well!

Lots of love and luck to my TTGP IVF Buddy Kathy4678!
Good morning! Everyone is looking great! I can't believe some of you are already into 2nd tri, and so many are very close to the end. I love the bump pics!
As for me, I feel great. My only big symptoms are sore nipples and constipation. Most of the time I don't feel a thing. I'm waiting for the nausea to kick in soon, although I hope I'm lucky and don't get it at all! My betas continue to rise, but my progesterone has been declining. We're keeping an eye on it, and hopefully it doesn't go below 15. If so, I'll be put on a supplement. That number fluctuates, so no worries right now.

I love, love, love seeing you in this thread!!
I am officially half baked. I will be 21 weeks on Thursday. Last Thursday we found out that there is a boy growing in there. I had so many girl vibes but DH and SS were right, he is in fact a boy. I am convinced I am growing another clone of my husband now. Baby Logan has a big head and long legs just like DH and SS. He looked perfectly healthy though with a heartbeat of 145 BPM and measuring in at approx. 13 ounces.
I am bad with bump pics. Any of the pics I have taken are on my digital at home. I do however have an updated picture of the little man taken during our A/S last week.
steff, it's still so exciting to see you here!!

This! And Hi PB!! xoxo
I am just picturing those adorable little baby otter PIPs from before and swooning! Hoping you hear that perfect little heartbeat next week!

I don't have any exciting news really. I'm comfortably into 2nd tri now and maybe beginning the whole more-energy-plus-nesting thing everyone talks about. New developments include horrible nightmares and needing to eat ALL. THE. TIME.
Every time DH puts his hand on my belly and feels something, it's my tummy growling. 
If I could ask for some T&Ps from you all, if it's not too much trouble, my grandparents, who are 94 and 96, just were moved into assisted living over the weekend. They are declining really really fast, and we are just praying that both of them live to meet their great-grandchild. I get very emotional thinking about this and would love any vibes you could send our way.
All the T&Ps I have to everyone out there in Bump-land who needs them. Love and miss you all.

Hi, hon!! Did you get your cell phone back? And did you find some good TV for this week?

Lots of T&Ps for your grandparents, PB. Mine have been declining the last few years and it's hard to think of them not being around. ((hugs))

Just finishing up the first trimester and received great results from my NT scan.
I have a lot more energy now than a month ago for sure.

Yes, and Yes! I've been watching judge shows. My brain is turning to mush! Lots of T&P's for your grandparents, PB! Love you.
Everyone looks great!! I don't have much to report. We are having another ultrasound Thursday. I am crossing my fingers that everything looks good and my RE will release me to my OB. I still have massive bloat from the progesterone I am on. No pic though, it isn's pretty lol.
Hi Ladies,
Everyone looks great! Congrats to the new BFPs as well. So exciting!
Things here are going really well. My new passtime is watching LOs kick and roll in my belly - it's crazy! I mostly feel B - baby A is kind of underneath, so I don't feel him as much, but he still gives me the occasional thump to let me know he's OK.
I've had to cut back a bit on what I do - if I walk or am on my feet for a long time, I get some pretty intense pelvic pressure and BH contractions. It's hard to cut back when I feel fine otherwise, but I need to do what's best for my little guys. I guess it's true - twin pregnancies require a little more rest! As long as I don't overdo it I feel really good.
I have my glucose test today and another appointment and u/s on Thursday - wish me luck!
This pic was taken 2 weeks ago, at 24 weeks, but I look more or less the same now. Plus, I'm AWing that I made the shirt I'm wearing.
Like this one??
