Re: PgAL Check In
Do you have any upcoming appointments or milestones? 2nd to last p17 shot on Sunday and regular OB appt Thursday (and then it's every week!)
Any pregnancy symptoms or pregnancy cravings or aversions? Life is just uncomfortable! But it's OK, I know that the end is in sight!
QOTW: Are you going to allow anyone besides your SO in the delivery room? Nope! DH and I have mixed feelings because I want my parents AT the hospital (waiting room) and he'd rather not have anyone at the hospital. DH understands though, that I want them there in case something goes wrong. Still haven't decided...
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?I'm officially on Spring Break! I left school today with my room very clean and ready (in case I don't come back) and I'm looking forward to relaxing and getting ready for baby this week. Also...we're going to visit Leah, Rachel and Gabe's tree tomorrow (my parents planted a sugar maple at their house in honor/memory of them...it's their "place" instead of a grave site...) and I've been thinking all week about taking some sort of Easter decorations, but just have no idea what to do, so I haven't done anything... I know it doesn't matter, but just as this new baby get closer to being here, trying to keep Leah, Rachel and Gabriel present in our lives (I guess what people do when they're expecting their second and their first is living...)
Do you have any upcoming appointments or milestones?
MFM appt and NST on Monday.
Any pregnancy symptoms or pregnancy cravings or aversions?
I'm in so much pain it's awful. My everything hurst and I'm having a really hard time getting comfortable then just when I do I have to get up and pee. It's a vicious circle.
QOTW: Are you going to allow anyone besides your SO in the delivery room?
I would have my mom and MIL in the room, but since we're having twins we have to deliver in the OR and it's against hospital policy to have anyone but DH there. They were both there for Elliott and Ryland's birth and I'd really like to have them there with us for Caroline and Oliver's. I'm still hoping for some miracle that will allow it, but it'll most likely just be DH.
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?
I've been having some trouble controlling my BP the last week. We ended up in L&D on Saturday night and we happened to have the same nurse that was with us for Elliott and Ryland's delivery. She was super sweet and remembered us and seemed excited for us to have made it this far, but it really messed with our heads. We spent all of Sunday in bed at home and crying because it brought everything back. I've been struggling with it all week as well. I find myself feeling guilty for being happy with this pregnancy and I wish I still had my boys which makes me feel like I'm not happy enough to be pregnant again. It's a hard thing to wrap my head around.
Hi ladies, I didn't want to upset anyone, especially any new loss moms by posting my own thread, so I thought I'd just pop in here and announce the arrival of my rainbow. Emily Kathryn arrived Wednesday March 19th at 2:20 pm, weighing 8 lbs 14 oz and 20.5 inches long. She's absolutely perfect and I couldn't be more in love. Her birth didn't go as I had envisioned, it turned out while head down, she was sunny side up which may have contributed to my long labor (32 hours) and failure to progress past 3 cm. So with a failed induction, we went ahead with a C section. I had always been terrified of needing one, but it went much better than expected and now at day 4 I am actually feeling pretty good, but above all so thankful and happy she is here safely.
She's so sweet, and often gets fussy at night and just clings to me. I haven't slept much since she's in my arms most of the night, but being needed by her and seeing how much I comfort her is the best feeling in the world, she's so amazing. I'm rooting for you all and your rainbows, can't wait to see birth announcements in the next few weeks. Here are a few pics

mrsgerman It's OK to let your guard down a little and prepare for this baby. I have to constantly remind myself that 1. this baby deserves to be celebrated and 2. preparing or not preparing isn't going to change the outcome (if that makes sense...)
