6. How is the PgAL brain treating you?
We have not announced as early as usual. Needed to hear the hb something fierce, and we did at 12 weeks! I hate that it has affected the kids. They were old enough to know about the last m/c and it took away the freedom of just enjoying the knowledge of the coming sibling.

7. Is there anything specific you would like to see here? Nothing specific

3. Any important appointments/updates this week? Not really, I keep thinking I feel the baby move but it doesn't happen enough to be sure yet.
4. If you don't having anything important this week, when is your next appointment? June 25th I'm a little nervous about this one. It's my first since our scare and I don't think they will be doing an u/s. Also DH is out of town so it will be my first one without him there.
5. How are those symptoms? not too many anymore! Thank you second tri! Still getting a few headaches and not sleeping to well.
6. How is the PgAL brain treating you? Kinda crappy, I'm trying to focus on the positive but I keep remembering where I would have been. My cousin posted her first belly picture on facebook last night at 35 weeks...means I would have been at 33. She has been great so far with not posting too much on Facebook but I think that since she knows I'm KU again and she's due next month she's been posting more. Totally understandable it's her first after all and I want her to be excited. Just sucks sometimes knowing I'd be delivering next month instead of getting my anatomy scan.
7. Is there anything specific you would like to see here? Nope, you are doing a great job!
QOTD: What is your biggest food craving right now? Not sure I really have one right now. I'm sure one will hit me while we are camping this weekend and I can't get what I want.
1. How far along are you? What is your EDD? 13 weeks today. Hello second trimester! 12/26
2. What fruit are you this week? a peach
3. Any important appointments/updates this week? I had an appointment Tuesday for first trimester screening ( I think that's what it was anyway) and they couldn't complete it because the baby refused to moved. They needed to measure the neck. We heard the heartbeat and saw our little bean so we were happy anyway.
4. If you don't having anything important this week, when is your next appointment? I get to go back and try again on Tuesday. The u/s tech told me to 'junk it up' and drink Mountain Dew. I plan to eat a big breakfast and have a Coke, Mountain Dew really grosses me out.
5. How are those symptoms? Not too bad! I feel nauseous if I get too hungry. Random headaches, still tired.
6. How is the PgAL brain treating you? I'm so happy to be entering my second trimester, I'm really not too worried lately. I think this little bean is here to stay.
7. Is there anything specific you would like to see here? Nope
QOTD: What is your biggest food craving right now? I have been craving a very specific burger, fries and onion rings from a particular greasy spoon diner. So far I have avoided it but I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to give in soon.
1. How far along are you? What is your EDD? 14 weeks, 6 days: December 13th
2. What fruit are you this week? Lemon
3. Any important appointments/updates this week? Nope
4. If you don't having anything important this week, when is your next appointment? July 8th...it seems like so far away
5. How are those symptoms? I have been getting the worst headaches, basically verging on migraine territory. Also, my uterus hurts. I assume its just growing (duh), but its so achy.
6. How is the PgAL brain treating you? Meh. The bad comes and goes. Every Friday when I get to switch to a new week I'm pumped up and excited, but by Sunday I am just worried again about the baby being ok.
7. Is there anything specific you would like to see here?
QOTD: What is your biggest food craving right now? The question is really, what isn't a food craving for me right now? I am sort of proud of myself though, I've been really craving fruit and vegetables, so I'm trying to indulge that craving as often as possible.
July: Patriotic Fails

2. What fruit are you this week? Plum
3. Any important appointments/updates this week? I had to go in for an U/S on Monday because I bled again over the weekend. My little guy was doing great! This was 2 days before my 12 week appt so I went back for that too just to hear the heartbeat.
4. If you don't having anything important this week, when is your next appointment?
Next appt is at 16 weeks!! One long month away!!
5. How are those symptoms?
My boobs are less sore. No food sounds good still, can't poop, can't sleep. My bloating is better but by the end of the day, it is back again. Heartburn and headaches are the new fun things I have now.
6. How is the PgAL brain treating you?
Well after bleeding again for the millionth time, I am starting to accept that this may be how my pregnancy goes. I freaked out this time when I saw red, but I didn't go to the ER. I was able to wait to see my doc the next day. I think now I am just more frustrated with it than anything. And I am bored because they don't want me working.
7. Is there anything specific you would like to see here? Nope

5. How are those symptoms? Felt great Mon/Tues so I thought maybe I was over the hump, but no such luck....back to feeling tired/queasy.
6. How is the PgAL brain treating you? Having a really hard time telling people....I just don't want to do it (scared something will happen and I will have to "un-tell"). Next week (end of first tri) I will force myself to let some of my family know though.
7. Is there anything specific you would like to see here? Nope
