This is my last first tri check-in! I am 13w2d. I finished up PIO and delestrogen last week so no more shots. We did the panorama and I got the results last night. It's a girl!!! We are shocked and super excited. It feels more real now that we know the gender. No spotting in a couple weeks. I have been down graded from high risk to moderate risk due to the pituitary tumor.
QOTW: I don't really have a celebrity couple that I admire as parents. I'll have to think more about it. The Affleck's are a great pic. Tori Spelling and her husband I kinda like.

Hello! I'm about 6.5 weeks long with 2 lil monkeys in there! We had our second ultrasound this week and I was able to see and hear the heartbeats. Very cool! I also was able to stop my PIO shots!!! YAY!! My level was 229.5.....so well over what they were wanting it to be. I still haven't had much m/s.....more tired than anything. My nurse said maybe I'm a lucky one and won't really get m/s......but...I'm still very early in the pregnancy.

Hey all. Had another run to the ER yesterday, because i was bleeding like a period. But they did u/s and b/w and everything else looks fine. I'm kind of at a loss why this is happening. I just want to relax but it seems there is always something to mar this.
qotd: I like the Afflecks, honestly. You never hear things in the media about their children or them, so I'm assuming they are just trying to raise their children like normal people.

Hello all of you gorgeous ladies! Today I had my first pre-natal workup with a surprise ultrasound! Originally, they were not going to do an ultrasound, but since I had told the nurse I was so cautious since we've been trying for so long, she said to me, "Well, normally at 10 weeks we can hear baby on the doppler, but since you're 9w6d, lets see if we can get you in for an ultrasound instead!". I was so happy to see my little gummy bear on the big screen. Heart rate was 170, everything nice and smooth!
