Re: -:-:-:- 3T Grad Check-In -:-:-:-
Hugs to anyone that needs them. I am always praying for you ladies!
My NT scan results came back great! Only a 1 in 7600 chance of Downs and 1 in 10000 for trisomy.
I am still battling being sick all the time, but have learned that Ziploc bags are my best friend when I am out and about. No cleanup! Just zip and throw it away.
QOTW: I have had Cadence on my list for about 6 years and had finally gotten my DH to consider it. Lets just say I had a pregnant lady meltdown when the rumors started that it is Kim Kardashian's baby's name. Truly our list has probably 30 names on it and is growing!

Hey ladies! I miss all of you and really hope you can all join us on PAIF soon.
As for me, I am 34 weeks already. I cant believe it. We had an u/s earlier this week and baby girl is measuring two weeks ahead so she could basically come at any time now. We are banking on mid-July now. I can't believe that after all these years our life is truly going to change forever.
I am holding up pretty well though. I just got put on modified bed rest this week so it's kinda crazy knowing I wont go back to work until September! But everything else is pretty good at this point.
We have tentatively chosen the name Aurelia Grace, although we are waiting to see her to make the final decision. I am dying to know what she's going to look like (my straight red or blonde hair and blue eyes? DH's dark brown curly hair and green eyes?? A combination?! It's so exciting!)
HI ladies!! Congrats to futurehuber! So so happy for you! GL to Mochadoodle also! Hope to see you in PAIF soon.
Doing great over here! Baby is good, moving arond a ton and my next apt is July 1st so I am looking forward to that. Getting concerned about my placenta previa check at 28wks just some anxiety about a possible c section. Could use some thoughts!
This is my HDBD weekly photo from yesterday. MH takes them and was so funny this week telling me how to pose I forced him to take a pic in the same way. I have been laughing so hard! For your viewing pleasure!
We are having a boy, pretty sure we decided on Logan for our little guys name! But we will not confirm till we meet him!
Hope your all doing well! I think about you always and am lurking often! HUGS to those who need them!
Too Funny!!! Love the pics and the name Logan is so sweet!

Aww, thanks for the congrats guys! And thanks again Mochadoodle for taking over!
Wow, so crazy to be posting here! I had my first ultrasound this morning and everything looks good so far. We saw the sac (a little black blob, haha). I'm only 5 weeks today, so it will get more exciting soon. But who knew you could love a little black blob so much??
RE has me coming in weekly for ultrasounds, so I will start seeing more next week and the heartbeat in two weeks.
QOTW: We have liked Elle for a girl for a while now. Boy names are still up in the air. I like Ethan but I don't think DH is sold. We will see, luckily we have lots of time to figure it out!
Wishing all my 3T girls the best as always! You guys are always in my prayers! Hope everyone gets their BFPs soon!

Hi ladies! It's been a while since I've checked in, but I'm lurking every day and thinking of you all often.
I'm just over 37 weeks and just got back from my OB's office. Baby grew a ton at the last minute which changed our birth plans. I SHOULD have been having baby sometime within the next 2-3 days, but the growth bought us some more time. Plans now are to go in again on Monday for a BPP u/s and cervical check and then go in for induction either Tuesday or Wednesday night!
Names are finalized...we think! Can't wait to meet the little one and see if we get to use the boy name or the girl name!
MrsSmith - that picture made me snort-laugh!! Very cute!!
CONGRATS FutureHuber - I wanted to say something in one of your previous posts but know so many are having hard IF days lately - so didn't feel right, even with a siggy warning!
Finally, Mocha, thanks for taking over
All is well here in baby land! I'm on vacation this week and next so I've been slowly getting our new house in order and also resting a lot! It's been great. We have our 20 wk u/s (a/s) on Wednesday with the MFM. I must say even thought I'm excited for it - I can feel my anxiety kicking in a bit. I just hope all is okay with the girls.
As for names, we have decided on: Isla Helen and Zara Grace. The two first names are traditional Scottish names (DH is from Scotland) and the two middle names are family names.
Hugs to all you ladies who need them
I guess I belong here now! So strange!!
Beta #2 came back today at 391, so we are looking good! Our first u/s is scheduled for July 3. I'll be 6 weeks then, and I CANNOT WAIT!!
I'm 12dp5dt and about 4w3d along (ish). I've already been having tons of symptoms (nausea, weird/tight abdominal sensations, increased sense of smell, etc.), and I feel like I already look HUGE. But it's just a lovely combination of post-IVF bloat and early pg bloat.
We've had names picked out for years - just family names.
I'm always rooting for my 3T girls!! Sending {{hugs}} to those who need them!

I think I finally feel comfortable enough to check in now! We had our 2nd u/s today and got to see baby with a strong heartbeat of 152!! Today we also graduated from the RE. I posted a couple pics of the u/s in my blog, linked in my siggy. We have our first OB appointment on July 10th and we will get another u/s on that day.
QOTW: We have been dead set on Layla (go figure) for a girl and right now I'm thinking Langston if it's a boy. I change the boy names a lot though.
After almost 2 years of TTC and fertility treatments we got a surprise BFP in May 2013
Hi ladies,
I just hit 19 weeks today and so we are half way thru the pregnancy so far. I had an OB appt on Monday and am finally back to my pre-pregnancy weight. We have our next ultrasound of the boys on July 5th and next OB appt July 16th which is our 3 year wedding anniversary. We will get to start having monthly ultrasounds since I am high risk.
QOTW: One of the boy's name is Jacob Alan and then we are still deciding on the other name.
Me (30) my best friend (38)

Hi ladies! I'm 31 weeks and time is just flying by! I'm feeling pretty good, just starting to get really tired now. I'm still trying to get all the gifts from my shower put away and organized in the nursery. And tonight we have our first childbirth class which I'm pretty excited about. It's a natural childbirth class and I hope we get a lot out of it.
Boy names were really tough for us, but I think we've settled on Noah Benjamin (Benjamin is my dad's middle name).
Always rooting for you girls! Hugs to those that need them this week.

I'm a bit late to the party today! Hi girls!!! (((Hugs)))!! I'm super duper excited that Futerhuber can post here now!!!!! And Laylarue and Blue Eyed Dreamer! So great to see you posting here now!!! And wow KDG can't believe your little one will be here any day now!
I graduated from my RE today! Crazy! My ultrasound went pretty well. My SCH (Subchorionic Hematoma) is still there, but thankfully hasn't gotten any larger this week. I so hope it just goes away soon so I can stop worrying about it.
We decided to come out on FB today and I'm so glad the cat is out of the bag. I know I'm friends with a few of you on FB and I'm sorry if my announcement might have been off putting. I would completely understand if you want to block my posts. I don't plan to post about the pregnancy tons, but I know that sometimes even a few posts can just come at the wrong time. The last thing I'd ever want to do is hurt any of you wonderful ladies.
QOTW: we've already heard way too many opinions from family on the matter that we just decided not to announce baby's name until LO is here!
Married October 2009. Me 29 H 28.
After 1 year of infertility, our little miracle was conceived via our 3rd IUI on May 5, 2013.

Agh I'm so late to this - work was crazy yesterday, but I just wanted to check in with all of you because I really truly do think about you often. I hope you all get your BFPs soon!

QOTW: We're naming our son Hunter Stephen. We just really like the name Hunter and my dad's name is Stephen and he's my biggest supporter so I wanted to honor him as my dad.
Here's a picture of me from this week.
