3T Graduates

STL34 · June 2011

Congratulations to all the recent 3T BFPs!

Bring on the bumps and babies, ladies! We love to hear how you are doing!

illinigal · June 2011

Good morning all! I hope all 3T'ers will be able to join this post very soon.

I'm still feeling pretty good. No morning sickness (knock on wood), but I get dizzy spells occasionally... that pass quickly. I had an ultrasound at the OB last Friday 6/24 and got to see both my babies.... it was amazing how much bigger they were than my previous ultrasounds at the RE.

Here is my 11w bump pic from Monday. Sorry the white socks don't really go.

diana.filipi · June 2011

Hello :-)

I am feeling pretty great. We have both our betas in (see siggy) and they looked great. I have our first u/s scheduled for the 12th to see how many and heart beats. Our EDD is March 5th.

Thank you for all the support. I wish the very best for those still here; let the baby dust rain.

scherpha · June 2011

Hello ladies! I am lurking every night and rooting for all of you. Congrats to the recent BFPs!!! Party!!!

Things here have been exciting - Payton is now 15 weeks old! She is very alert and chatty. I don't remember if I included this info in last week's update (so sorry if it is a repeat) but she has been diagnosed with a milk and soy protein intolerance. Our two choices were to switch to a special formula or I could go milk and soy free (and continue to EBF). Needless to say, I have been milk and soy free for a week. It will take up to a month to really see a change but it isn't that bad. I have swaps for almost everything. I am seeing some changes in Payton too - mainly her poop but that is a good thing! Stick out tongue

I thought I would have some pictures but my phone won't email right now. Boo!

Sarafuss · June 2011

Hi ladies! Sorry I've been MIA for the past few weeks so this might be a little long. It's been insane. I went to L&D 3 times last week. The first two times were due to PTL caused by a UTI and spilling ketones from the GD. My contractions were 2 minutes apart and pretty strong! After lots of fluids and antibiotics they got the contractions to slow down and eventually stop a few days later. The last time I went was due to another kidney stone But I'm feeling much better now and I'm full term! At my OB appt on Monday they were concerned about pre-e (high BP, protein in my urine and swelling) so I had to do a 24 hour urine catch on Tuesday and I'm waiting to hear the results. So it's possible that they will induce me in the next couple of days. If not, I'll be induced at 39 weeks due to GD. I go twice a week for non-stress tests and bio-physical profiles (u/s) and baby looks great every time so he's a tough little guy!

Here is my 37 week picture and some nursery pics!

Congrats to the new BFP's and ((hugs)) to those who need them!

ETA: The tree is almost done. There are two little owls that need to be painted on the long branch. My stepmom has been painting it and I love it!

Edit again: I'M BEING INDUCED TONIGHT! Ahh! They called and said I have mild pre-e and since I'm full term they want to go ahead and induce. I'm so nervous and excited!

Ya Never Know · June 2011

Ooo, I'm early for this, and eager to report that things are going much better! Due to some spotting and weird symptoms, I had a 2nd beta, and an u/s yesterday. Beta was good, but they did the u/s to make sure the pregnancy isn't ectopic.

The u/s showed a gestational sac in the uterus! They didn't see a yolk sac, or fetal pole, but they didn't seem concerned as they said it's normal not to see that at 5 weeks.

I have another ultrasound on July 6th, at 6 weeks, where we hope to be able to see at least a yolk sac in the gestational sac which will confirm that the pregnancy is not ectopic, or possibly even a fetal pole or a heartbeat! Come on July 6th!!!!!

I hope all of you ladies are doing well. I'm rooting for all of you to be able to move on soon! Sending out HUGE HUGE hugs to all and any of you that need them this week!

MegannJay · June 2011

Morning ladies! Congrats to all the recent BFP's and good luck to all those ladies cycling right now. I had my follow up u/s on Monday and got to see my little girl again! She was being a troublemaker and made it hard for the tech to get pictures of everything but thankfully she eventually did and so far everything looks good. Petri was so awake and moving all over the place. She even flipped completely over during the scan. So cool! We're starting on her nursery this weekend and have a first name picked out (I think it will be Emily) but we're having a hard time figuring out a middle name. Any suggestions?:) pic of my baby girl in my siggy!

scherpha · June 2011

Looking great Illini! I loved seeing the progression in the u/s too!

Sara - sorry things have been hectic! It sounds like you do have a strong boy in there!

A great friend of mine from high school is Emily Mae. I like it!

My cousin's little girl is now about 12 years old. Her name is Emily Rose, that I think is absolutly beautiful! I don't remember any of my others cousin's kids middle names (heck some of them I don't even remember their first names) but her's has stayed with me.

RileyGrace · June 2011

Congratulations to all the recent BFPs, I'm so excited!!! I have to say that I'm especially excited for Ashley to finally be moving over to the graduates post! I'm so happy and excited for all of you!

Illi - you look great! I can't believe you've got twins in that teeny belly! I'm so excited for you.

Sara, good luck! Your nursery looks great!

Sending love and luck to all the ladies who are cycling right now. I hope we have a great summer on 3T. It's so incredibly hard while you're waiting, but I promise that it's definitely worth it in the end.

I had the same issue at the same stage. At first they had the hardest time even seeing the sac everything was so small. By the next u/s it was amazing how much everything had developed. GOOD LUCK!

ashleyann82 · June 2011

Hello

This is my 1st checkin!

I don't have a beta yet, they are doing it tomorrow but I have been testing since last Friday with cheapies, FRERs and digitals and they have all been + !!! So I'm feeling pretty good about getting my beta drawn tomorrow. Hoping this lil guy or gal sticks

Good luck with everything. Mrs.Johns' LO has the same allergies, she might be able to give some help with your diet restrictions. She's been successfully BF for 6 mths since they discovered the allergy.

My LO has some tummy troubles and we started him on infant probiotic. Ofcourse ask your Dr, but that might help her poops. We use DrUtos infant from Whole Foods refridgerated vitamin section. It really helps his poops not be so crazy.

Hi ladies! Congrats to the recent BFP's! It's so great to see more graduating

I'm still plugging along... I haven't taken a picture since last Saturday (which is in my blog) but she's certainly growing I can see her kick and move my belly from the outside as of the last few days... what a trip. Other than that I gotz nuthin. No news is good news though. I have to take the 1 hour glucose test next appt, so fingers crossed I pass that ok.

Many good thoughts for those cycling or about to!! xo

Papps, you look amazing! Aren't outside kicks the best! Loved those. Good luck with your 1 hr!

LO just turned 5 mths old, I can't believe how fast it goes. Sometimes the days go by really slowly, like when DH is traveling, but the weeks go by so fast. Here's a pic of Rocky living up to his nickname.

mrs.monica · June 2011

Hi lovely ladies! I've missed you all, and I'm so excited to see so many 3T'ers joining the "graduates" Keep em coming! I'm always lurking, rooting & thinking of you. Special congrats to ashleyann & ya never know on their recent BFPs!

Bryn is 2.5 months (it's flying by!) and I'm just getting the hang of having two at home by myself. Ty also just turned 4 last saturday.

I would love for you to "follow" me on my blog, if you'd like. I'd love to follow yours too. Leave a comment if you read, and I'll come visit yours too! Link in siggy.

Here are my LOs!

RileyGrace · June 2011

OMG, Bryn is gorgeous! Hope all is going well. Great to see you!

ashleyann82 · June 2011

Thank you RileyGrace and Mrs. Monica for rooting for me all this time

Really? I also have a cousin who has a 12 year old daughter whose name is Emily Rose. Considering we live in different countries, I'm guessing they're not the same person....but funny, anyway I agree, that the name tends to stick with you (I don't know any of my other cousin's MN's!).

Megan Jay - I don't know if it would bother you (it obviously doesn't bother some people), but Emily Rose is the name of the devil child in the movie Rosemary's Baby.

MrsVo · June 2011

Morning ladies!! HUGE congrats to the new BFPs!!! Big hugs and continued T&Ps for those still cycling.

We had another appointment Monday and it went great! Baby A is a wild woman and Baby B seems to take after her mom and likes to nap. We were told they are for sure both girls so that is very exciting! I've been on a pink, frilly buying spree

heathercara · June 2011

Not much to update. I am not so patiently waiting to hear from the imaging facility about my Level 2 u/s where we find out the sex. They are taking forever to call me back and I am going nuts!! This is my Week 15 shot...I haven't taken this weeks yet...sorry

alhal · June 2011

Good morning ladies!

No bump pictures yet, but I plan to start taking them soon. I definitely am noticing growth, but I don't think it is apparent to others yet. I'm still sick as a dog, unfortunately. I'm so ready to start feeling better. Throwing up every.single.morning is starting to take a toll.

I got results back from my 1st trimester sequential screen (blood work and ultrasound), and everything looks good. The nuchal fold measurement was good. My chances for the Trisotomy diseases are less than 1 in 10,000. My chances for a Down's baby is 1 in 910. I'm not really sure whether that is good or not.

I feel like I haven't gotten to see baby in forever, and I don't have another ultrasound scheduled until Aug. 8 (anatomy scan). I'm tempted to schedule an elective ultrasound soon, so that I can find out the sex and see the sweet babe again. We'll see.

Good luck to all the TTTC gals!

illinigal · June 2011

Loving the cute belly and baby photos in this post! And Sara- such a cute nursery. I hope your upcoming delivery goes smoothly.

firewife9278 · June 2011

Good morning! I continue to send good thoughts and many prayers for everyone to join us here soon!

I'm still in shock that I'M posting here!

We had our first u/s on Monday this week and saw one sac/yolk sac, which they said was right on schedule for 5w5d. I go back on July 11 for the next one, and hopefully we'll see a beautiful heartbeat that day! I'll be 7w5d, so I'm hopeful. My RE also had me schedule my RN visit and my first OB visit (so those are 7/21 and 8/1), because as long as all looks good on 7/11, I'll be graduating

And I'm going to FL next month for almost a week, since my mom spends summers there, and hopefully we'll be checking out some maternity outlets!

ChicagoWeded2007 · June 2011

Hello from Aruba!

I am now 6 weeks pregnant. My only symptom is pretty bad chest tenderness. I have started sleeping with a sports bra on to ease the pain. Also, I tend to get car sick, but no other nausea.

We had our first u/s before leaving for aruba. I was at 5 weeks and 2 days, so no hb yet. But there was one yolk sac and one fetal pole in the right place (in my uterus). I can't show you the picture because I'm in aruba and my husband made me leave the picture at home so I wouldn't stare at it all week!

Next u/s is on Tuesday. I'll be 6w6d then and hopefully we'll see a heartbeat!

I'm so thrilled for you! Good luck at the next u/s, seeing and hearing the HB is so amazing!

goodgollie · June 2011

I don't have any pictures, but can tell you I already look as far along as I did when I was 18-weeks with DS. =P I'm feeling great! We had our first-tri screening on Tuesday and it was awesome! I'm going to be seeing MFM for a u/s every 4 weeks to check growth and cervical lenth, then my regular ob every 4 weeks, so I'll have an appointment every other week. I feel really good about this pregnancy and am glad to have the more frequent monitoring so I can continue to feel like that. Congrats girls!

I was curious how baby Hercules was! You look great!

leecrystalwed08 · June 2011

Congrats to those new BFP's! So exciting!

Here we are at 25 weeks. We FINALLY got Baby B measured and her heart looks good! I only have to see our MFM once a month from here on out. Kicks, kicks, and more kicks is all I feel now...I LOVE IT! You wait so long for this day to come and now that it's here I never want it to stop! GTT at my next visit and I hope I pass! (Good Luck to you too Papps)

Have a great Holiday weekend everyone!

Glowconsin · June 2011

((big hugs)) to all that need it.

I'm loving all the recent additions to the group!! Congrats in particular to FireWife and Ash!!

Illini, you have the cutest little bump

HC, love your baby belly. Can't wait to hear what you're having.

RG, I'm in love with your little man!! Love the shirt.

Mrs. Monica, your little lady is just gorgeous!

No real update from me. My next appointment is next Thursday. Mr. Glow swears I've popped in the past few days. I tend to believe him. Yesterday, someone was randomly asking me if this was my first (never met this person before). I asked her how far along I looked out of curiosity (she didn't know about the trips yet), she said at least 6 months (24 weeks+). Yikes.

MyHusbandMyHero · June 2011

Hey girls! I hope youre all doing well and cant wait to see all of you on PAIF!! I had my 3rd u/s yesterday to follow up the not so great news from last week. Looks like my amnio HAS increased but not to a "normal" amount, and our hb went up from 124 last week to 180! woo hoo! I was 8w3d yesterday and measured 7w3d. Our RE is begining to notice a pattern of our LO being "consistently a week behind". But atleast we have a weeks worth of growth from last week and great hb increase! I scheduled my first OB appointment for July 12, and my class on early genetic testing for the 18. Our RE wants us to go back each Wednesday for a follow up u/s with him until we have our OB appt.

I dont have a bump yet, but I have a u/s pic to share! Love you girls!

(( dont mind the 7w1d at the bottom.. the u/s machine wasnt updated!))

AmberZ2be · June 2011

Hi ladies!! I am seriously always lurking and checking up on you all. ((hugs)) to those having a hard time.

A huge congrats to the newest graduate, Ashleyann!!!!!!!!!

MrsMon-Bryn is too cute. I think I need to refollow your blog, bc it is no longer showing up in my feed. I don't want to miss out on the cuteness.

Riley-Love that Rocky photo of Jack. He is so sweet. I want to kiss those cheeks.

Sorry no updated bump photo from me today, but I should be adding some to my blog in the next few days. I have had two baby showers already, which is so surreal.

rous27 · June 2011

Good morning ladies! Congrats on the recent BFPs! Good luck to those cycling. I'm thinking of you ladies! So not much to update on me. I feel like my bump has been the same size for several weeks now. Which makes me think it's due to grow a ton here soon. I am almost in the 3rd trimester! That excites/scares me. I really don't have anything set up nursery wise and I feel like I'm running out of time. It really is great to see all you ladies' bumps and babies. I love grad check in!

This is me at 26 weeks. My allergies have really been bothering me so I look all weird and tired.
