Pregnant after a Loss

Post your good things

I have been feeling a little anxious and a touch blue the past few days, so I'd love to hear positive news from people. Anything - big or small, Bump related or not.

Thanks, and Happy Friday! :)

  • I'm crocheting a baby sweater for Elinor that I've made numerous times for other little baby girls. It's a great feeling to be making it this time for my little girl!

    Oh also, for anyone who is close to my age - they're coming out with a new show "Girl Meets World" and it's got Cory and Topanga as the parents! 

    Someone on FB posted about this, this afternoon.  I'm not sure how I feel about it! 

    ETA: Where to and when do you go on vacation?

  •  I read a really sweet blog post today that said that when you're feeling blue or unhappy, the best way to make yourself feel better is to pray for others. So, I will say a prayer that you feel happier soon. 
    Aww, that's so sweet. Thank you. :)

  • I got to snuggle my friend's newborn yesterday and I just ate whole pint of Phish Food.  Totally worth it!
  • Great idea!

    I took the day off today so it is a 3 day weekend for me, we get next Friday off already as a holiday so that is 2 3-day weekends in a row!

    Weather here is awesome. High tomorrow is 79 and sunny.

    One of my best friends who I met on TTCAL when I was originally there 4 years ago called me yesterday to tell me she was buying me a very nice baby carrier as a birthday/baby present. She is so amazing and so thoughtful and incredibly generous (it is a really pricey carrier), it really just blew me away.

  • I'm a day late, but this is a great idea! 

    1. They finally found me a sub! Now I don't need to stress about lessons, etc. 

    2. We bought our stroller today! I have had my heart set on one specific stroller the entire pregnancy, but walked out with a completely different one. The owner of the store had a model he was trying to move off the floor so he offered us a crazy discount on it. Still can't believe it! 

    3. My Golden Gophers are in the NCAA Frozen Four Championship game tonight! Last time they won was 11 yrs when I was finishing my last year on campus. 

    Life is good and I am feeling very, very blessed.

  • I hope you are cheered up. I saw this post and was trying to think of something especially good to reply with. I have just been inspired. I baked banana chocolate chip muffins just now. I must have made this same recipe half a dozen times but never and I mean NEVER have they smelled so delicious in the oven before. It was like music to my pregnant nose!! Lol in heaven right now. :-)

  • Taking progesterone made me incredibly nauseous last month... the only thing that helped- Shamrock shakes!!  As I'm starting my second month on the meds and realizing I can no longer get these magical fixes, I excitedly found my new best friend at the new grocery store- reduced cal/fat MINT COOKIE CHUNK ice cream!!  :)  
  • @mrsjg2013, I LOVE Shamrock Shakes!!! I wish McDonalds had them year-round!
