valigrl21:
Any updates or appointments coming up that you'd like to share? First ultrasound tomorrow afternoon. My 2 miscarriages were both found at my first ultrasound, without any "symptoms" that anything was wrong, so I was blindsided. I am trying to remind myself of what happened those other 2 times, so I won't be blindsided again. But there's a part of me that wants to be optimistic and excited for tomorrow.
I am a mix of emotion now and will be until the ultrasound. DH and I are driving together in the same car, instead of meeting at my appointment because I am worried I may have a last minute panic attack and decide to run away to hide instead of go to my ultrasound.

I hope your ultrasound goes well tomorrow. I will pray for you! Keep us updated.

Am I alone in feeling so negative all of the time? I just want to get through Friday one way or the other. I can't take this anymore.

I have been actively trying to fight my negative attitude, but every morning I wake up and think "I wonder if today is going to be when I miscarry." Terrible, I know but after 2 losses in a row I have very little faith that things will go well this time. Hang in there! I'll say some prayers for you that friday goes well.

km_md · June 2013

Updated EDD?

EDD is still January 24th

Symptoms?

I had one super bad week of nausea, but it has gotten a little bit better. I'm really tired all of the time, my boobs are sore, I'm peeing a lot, I've got quite a bit of reflux and my stomach is still being a bit weird and uncomfortable, oh and lots of bloat still happening!

Any updates or appointments coming up that you'd like to share?

1 week until my first u/s!!! I'm so so excited. Today I'm 6w5d, which is the most pregnant I've ever been, so I'm feeling pretty good.

The other day it was cake and last night it was a hamburger. The other day my hubby made bbq chicken and all I wanted was plain rice. Takes me a really long time to eat nowadays!

had a great u/s last week at 8w5d but the dating was different that my RS's measurement the previous week at 8w3d. so i have been a wreck about why my baby is measuring 4 days behind and fearing the worst.

Thanks, LMBH and everyone else. That's exactly how I feel every day. I wonder if I will feel any better after the first ultrasound. And if not, when?

Thinking of all of you too, every day.

SJ&Beanie810 · June 2013

Updated EDD? Our officially due date is 1/12 now

Symptoms? Nausea, fatigue, sore nips

Any updates or appointments coming up that you'd like to share? We had an ultrasound last week and everything looked great so I'm trying to be more relaxed now.

GTKY: Any cravings yet? I love turkey BLTs. I also am in love with stoffers mac&cheese.

kschref · June 2013

Updated EDD? Stil the same, January 13.

Symptoms? Throwing up everything, everywhere all the time! So gross. I cannot keep anything down. Have lost 5 pounds so far...every day my weight seems to drop just a little bit. Really hope this stops soon. Also, sore boobs and I swear they are the only part of me that has gained any weight. They are so heavy right now!

Any updates or appointments coming up that you'd like to share? Just had my second u/s yesterday and it went great. Of course, now that it's over I keep thinking "But what if the heart stopped now? Now? Or now?" PgAL blows. My doc is giving me a third u/s in two weeks so I can prove to myself I made it PAST 8 weeks, and then we're done with that until the A/S. Hopefully by 10-12 weeks I'll be able to use a doppler and not freak out so much.

So, DH and I were flying back from San Diego and I was so sick on the plane I could hardly stand it. I decided to buy a snack and saw Oreos in their "menu". I never eat those, but for some reason they sounded AWESOME! So, when the lady came by, I asked for them and she said "That sounds good, but we don't have those today." I almost punched her in the face. When we got to our layover, we only had 10 minutes to get to the gate and board the next plane. DH got me there, and then ran all over the airport like a madman and found a place that sold little packages of Oreos. When we got on the plane, he opened the package for me and I'm pretty sure I ate all of them in the time between the plane engine starting and barely taking off. By the time we got home, I was really struggling not to throw up. Just before we pulled into our driveway, a cat ran in front of our car, DH had to slam on the brakes, and I lost it. He said he actually considered running over the cat because he knew hitting the brakes would make me throw up again, but he thought I'd be more upset about the cat. Love my husband.

BirdieToldMe · June 2013

Updated EDD? January 23 -- I had an U/S today (got bumped up from Monday because I was so nervous). HB of 141 and my LO looks perfectly on track! I'm beyond relieved.

Symptoms? Still no nausea to speak (write) of. I thought I was about to gag this morning but then I didn't. So far, I feel pretty normal except for sore boobs and I am finally admitting that I'm more tired than usual.

Appts? July 3 at about 11 weeks. We'll likely just do a doppler. My OB made it clear to me that I can come back in two weeks if I am still stressing but I'm on Cloud 9 today!

GTKY: The only thing I'm noticing is that take out is definitely preferred over cooking right now. I don't have a ton of energy and nothing really sounds good except for something (anything) I can go pick up. My poor kids and DH.

KaloramaKB · June 2013

EDD: still technically 1/6 but since multiples rarely go full-term, my doctor told me to be prepared for a early to mid December delivery.

Symptoms: insatiable thirst, peeing all the time, constant nausea most of the day, puking an average of 2-3 times a day, and kinda cranky.

Update: had a great 2nd ultrasound on Monday morning at 9 weeks and was supposed to officially graduate from my RE but unfortunately experienced some bleeding Monday afternoon that scared the crap out of me. Was put on a 10 day course of antibiotics because my RE was concerned about infection. Fortunately, no more bleeding (fingers crossed) means that the scare was just the result of the internal ultrasound. I have had about 50 of them over the last two years and never had this reaction before but they were a little over eager this time trying to get clear pics of both babies.

Had the option of a repeat ultrasound next Monday with my RE but declined because I don't want to cause another scare unnecessarily and I have my first OB appointment on 6/14.

Cravings: Jimmy Johns subs. I can't get enough of them! Also, craving fresh fruit a lot too.

sept9107bride · June 2013

Hello I am new to the check in. I've had 2 losses and following that, two sons. I'm still quite the nervous nellie and we definitely have not told anyone (except my running group...due to me only walking now out of nervousness). I am really excited for all of the ladies in this group and look forward to counting down the days with you. Honestly, at this point I try not to think about being pg too much, not for another month at least.

Updated EDD? Jan 18th most likely. Due to dates and BD time we somehow think this was a late swimmmer!

Symptoms? Standard tired and slow brain but yesterday was my first bout of true nausea which made me feel relieved actually!

Any updates or appointments coming up that you'd like to share? June 11th...first u/s. Unlike previous pregnancies when I wanted to be in the office all of the time, this time I wish I could just wait till July. Just in case. So hopefully next week will go well. DH has said he'd go with me (yay!)

Ice cream. Oh wait I just crave that every single day hahaha

I always laugh at the early multiples thing because my brothers are twins and my mom carried them until 43 weeks. Still it is wise to be prepared for early delivery.

cyndilouwho77 · June 2013

Updated EDD? Nope still 1-8-14

Symptoms? Other than having to pee all the time, the last two days my symptoms have disappeared....its kinda scaring me =(

Any updates or appointments coming up that you'd like to share? I'm still holding out for that initial apt. July 3rd.....I am starting to be anxious about it since they labeled me high risk and then put me on the back burner for 7 weeks =(

GTKY: Any cravings yet? This past weekend was bad, nothing stayed down so now I am scared of food and don't ever have the urge to eat. I am eating little meals but maybe only about three a day. I am kinda a mess right now!

housewifebecomesher · June 2013

Updated EDD? Jan 23

Symptoms? Nausea, I can smell everything from miles away, headaches, not so much food cravings as eating everything in sight!, sore boobs, middle of the night trips to the bathroom

Any updates or appointments coming up that you'd like to share? June 10, first ultrasound can't come soon enough! and OB appt the following day

Any updates or appointments coming up that you'd like to share? We have a heartbeat! Going back next Friday to make sure baby is growing and to see if my SCH has disappeared.

GTKY: Any cravings yet? Funny stories about cravings get bonus points! Anything cheesy. Mac and Cheese, cheese and crackers, nachos.....ya and surprisingly I can still poop!

MissMeegs · June 2013

Hey ladies!

Still due January 11, as for everything else,

Symptoms: Mild intermittent nausea and food aversions, sore nipples, and oooh, the bloating. I'm a big girl to start with and the bloating is making me look 6 months pregnant. I have already bought a Bella Band.

Appointments: My next appointment is at 10w4d, in other words 2 loooong weeks away. But my OB said she'd do another u/s so at least I have that to look forward to even though I continue to be nervous as all get out.

Cravings: If I could, I would eat only ice cream. But I am pretty sure that was true before I got pregnant. But seriously, the thought of eating anything healthy right now is horrifying to me, and as I said I am already a fatty so the fact that I can't seem to cram in any food that is not a fudgsicle is the literal worst. I am in a constant shame spiral.

cupcake201 · June 2013

Hi ladies!

My EDD is January 18, 2014. So far I've had minimal symptoms some waves of nauseau here and there, a little tired, gaggy especially when brushing my teeth, boobs are a little sore, but less sore than they used to be....which isn't good for PGAL brain!

I havr had one u/s so far at 6w4d and we saw a heartbeat at 107. I have another one Friday at 7w6d and hope it has gone up! I am still feeling very nervous about this pregnancy.

No real cravings....although usually I am never hungry in the morning, an one day this week I was so STARVING on my way to work that I stopped and bought a donut. Probably haven't had one in years! It was delicious!

She must have been HUGE!!! I can not believe that!!!

heather52904 · June 2013

Hello! Thanks for running the check in.

Updated EDD? It's now 1/23

Symptoms? Sore boobs, tired, gassy

Any updates or appointments coming up that you'd like to share?

We had an ultrasound today and saw the heartbeat! Baby was measuring 6w6d, so all looks good. I feel better after this appointment, but we haven't reached our loss milestone yet and saw a hb last time, so I'm still a little on edge. But I do think I feel different this time. Our next u/s is July 16th, which seems so far away!

GTKY: Any cravings yet? Funny stories about cravings get bonus points!

No cravings yet, which is odd because I used to get them when not pregnant. Right now I just have a lot of food aversions.

heather52904 · June 2013

mrs.jenni:
Updated EDD: Still 1.30.14 as of right now!
Symptoms: Nausea, sore boobs, and really tired.
Appts: I got my beta results back...
4w6d: 2,123 (p4: 29)
5w1d: 4,363
I was so relieved! I have my first u/s tomorrow at 6w0d and I am SO NERVOUS about it. I'm nervous that it's too early to see the HB and then I'll worry {even though I realize that not seeing the HB doesn't necessarily mean anything bad will happen b/c it's so early}. I tried to push for next Thursday {7 weeks} but my OB wanted me to come in right away. She also said my betas are high enough to indicate that we may detect a HB already. Which will make me even MORE nervous if we don't see one. UGH. PGAL sucks.
GTKY: Cravings- RICE. Same thing happens with every pregnancy, I automatically want rice all the damn time. But any carb will do

Good luck tomorrow!

heather52904 · June 2013

ena724:
Updated EDD? Jan 28thSymptoms? nausea, all day tiredness
Any updates or appointments coming up that you'd like to share? Had 1st OB appt. today and we saw a heartbeat! We've never made it this far before. I finally feel a little relieved and actually think I am pregnant. Maybe my PgAL brain can take a rest for a few weeks.GTKY: Cravings- I was just eating marshmallows out of the bag. NO idea why. Also obsessed with carbs as well. Bagels and cream cheese are on my go to list right now.

Congrats on the hb!

You're definitely not alone. A lot of the time I feel like I am just waiting for the other shoe to drop, then I feel guilty about feeling that way. PGAL brain sucks!

katyms7 · June 2013

Updated EDD?

same date 1/27/14

Symptoms?

The exhaustion is so extreme this time around. Lots of headaches and I never had them before. Waves of nausea in the morning.

Any updates or appointments coming up that you'd like to share? 2nd beta was wonderful last week. I have my first u/s tomorrow at 6 weeks 3 days. I am nervous but trying to remain calm and tell myself that it may be too early to see anything.

I have been craving Mexican food so bad. Carbs too. I was the same way with my first pregnancy. Taco bell is my favorite fast food place to go!

She was. I used her maternity shirts as tents. She always says she carried them that long because we were redoing our kitchen at the time and she refused to go into labor until she had a working kitchen sink.
She must have been HUGE!!! I can not believe that!!!
