Re: Pregnant & TTC After a Preemie Check In 5/30/13

    So excited about my last P17 shot today! MFM appt this Monday with growth US. I am excited to see how big she has gotten-she was estimated to be 4lbs at 32 weeks. OB wasn't concerned about her weight at the time, but she mentioned that I should eat more protein since I wasn't gaining enough. So between my 32 and 34 week appts, I gained 6lbs! Overall, I have only gained 18lbs. It is hard for me to eat more with GD since a lot of the foods I am not really fond of. However, I am trying my best to beef her up!

    I'm 35 yrs old & TTC again. My DD was born last year at 32 weeks for unknown PTL. Luckily she was healthy and had an uneventful 3 week stay in the NICU. She's 8 months now (6 months adjusted) and happy as ever!

    I'm still here lurking! Ill be 11wks on Monday. My EDD is Christmas Eve. Fingers Xed for a December baby! I'm feeling well, although yesterday and today, I have felt contraction like pulling. Talking to the dr on Monday about it.
    Looking forward to my 1st Tri Scan on June 11.

    I am still doing ok.  After a week and a half of nothing, I have had a few contractions and BH in the last 24hrs, but I know that still falls in the normal range as long as they don't pick up.  I'm afraid the sudden temp jump into the 80s might have something to do with it...which will make for a long summer.   My OB said I could resume light activity as tolerated, but obviously no exercise, heavy lifting, etc.  She said unless they are faced with the decision to admit me to L&D, they won't bother running the Ffn test every two weeks because it really won't do us much good in the general info area.  The fact that my cervix showed no change was really good news and it isn't likely it will suddenly change without any outward signs at all.   Only a few more days until 3rd tri.

    2 years, 2 surgeries, 2 clomid fails, 2 IUIs, 1 loss, IVF #1 - 10/25/10 = BFP!, DS is now 3.5yrs!

    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

    I will be 39 weeks tomorrow, seriously this is crazy!

    Just left the doctor's office and I'm 3 cm dilated and about 50% effaced.  Finally some progress. 

    Still feeling really good, just way too excited and mentally checked out at work. Since I'm working until the baby comes I'm really hope the baby comes sometime soon. This weekend would be perfect!

    Checking in...34 weeks as of yesterday and utterly shocked that I made it this far with no issues! Had my OB appointment today, and she congratulated me on making it 34 weeks and let me know that they wont stop labor at this point and we are past the steroid shot threshold, all of which seems so surreal to me. I am only up 29lbs still, which is nice since I was up 30 at 30 weeks with Corri, and I have my last P17 shot on Monday! 

    I officially handed in my VBAC consent form and am praying I go into labor on my own before 40 weeks (39 would be nice) so I can give it a try. I asked them about possibly using the foley bulb and was met with a resounding no, they are VBAC friendly, but too conservative to use anything but low dose pit if I need to move things along. Fingers crossed little dude cooperates and I can get my VBAC.

    FX for you that you get your VBAC close to 40 weeks! What a wonderful feeling to not only be almost done with those shots, but that you have made it far enough to say that. So happy for ya!

    Hi ladies! I'm officially the most pregnant I've been, by a day. Had a stressful week thinking about this week all week, but glad it's past. Now I just need 2.5 weeks to get to 37 weeks and I can breathe a sigh of relief. Both appointments went well. I have 2 prog shots left and will stay on Procardia until 37 weeks. Lots of BH, grumpiness and weepiness, and so sore...I am now a waddler. :
