Happy Tuesday... err Friday! I thought the week after the gala would be slower but instead I am just playing catch up with everything that didn't happen last week. I also have family in town, so life has continued to be crazy.
Another week down! How is everyone doing today?

How far along are you? What fruit/veggie are you?
27 week, rutabega
How are you feeling?
Tired but it's all work related
Favorite moment of the week?
having a wonderful growth u/s and getting to see baby boy
Least favorite moment of the week?
work, work and more work.
How are your symptoms? Getting better? Worse? Any new ones?
the heartburn is pretty brutal
How is PGAL brain treating you? Any T&P requests?
too busy to have been worried which is nice, the u/s helped too.
Any upcoming appointments or milestones you're looking forward to?
nothing yet, but I do have my 1 hr glucose next week but I am not looking forward to it
~*~*~*GTKY questions:~*~*~*
How far along are you? What fruit/veggie are you?
20 weeks/banana
If you’re far enough along, are you having a boy or girl or are you team green? We are officially team green.
How are you feeling?
Pretty Good
Favorite moment of the week?
I have had the week off so that has been awesome.
Least favorite moment of the week?
Finding out I have Placenta previa. It is complete and my dr doesn't have much hope of it moving. I have done a ton of research of course and it looks like a 50/50 chance. I am so bummed that I won't have my natural birth but I am happy that lo looks healthy.How are your symptoms? Getting better? Worse? Any new ones?
My sciatica is killing me. It's probably because I did two egg hunts in a row which meant bending over a lot.
How is PGAL brain treating you? Any T&P requests?
I am really worried about the previa and bleeding. It is really likely to happen because of where my placenta is.
Any upcoming appointments or milestones you're looking forward to?
No appt until 24 weeks. Then another u/s at 28 weeks.~*~*~*GTKY questions:~*~*~*
Hi! I'm new to the board, and of course, really hoping to stick around. EDD is 12/9.
How far along are you? What fruit/veggie are you?
Currently at 6 weeks, a wee little pea at this point.
How are you feeling?
Morning sickness kicked in full-force this morning. So I was pretty miserable, but I'll take it as a positive sign
I also just loaded up on every home remedy for sickness I've heard of: coconut water, ginger chews, green apples...
Favorite moment of the week?
u/s on Monday. Got to see the little bean's tiny flashing heartbeat. And thankfully, it is in a safe spot. Since I previously had an ectopic, that was a big fear.
Least favorite moment of the week?
Reassurance from the good u/s wore off way too fast and I had a couple of panicky days this week. Feeling much more hopeful now, though.
How is PGAL brain treating you? Any T&P requests?
See above!
Any upcoming appointments or milestones you're looking forward to?
Next appt. is May 1st (13 days!). I'm really looking forward to it and also dreading it....
~*~*~*GTKY questions:~*~*~*
@slensic Thanks for posting the check in, hope that you're caught up soon!
TTC since Sept 2011, Unexplained IF
Oct 12 - Jan 14: 3 clomid/TI cycles, 2 hysteroscopies, 2 IUIs, 1 BFP (MMC @ 12w), 2 more IUIs
Feb 14: Gonal-f + IUI #5 = BFP! (EDD 11/4/14)
Baby boy arrived 11/13/14!
@slensic -- EDD is 12/16; numbers were fantastic! 20DPO beta was 2575 = 30 hour doubling time!
How far along are you? What fruit/veggie are you?
5w3d; Appleseed!
If you’re far enough along, are you having a boy or girl or are you team green? Team Green! -- thought we would be finding out eventually but it's apparently been SO's dream to find out at the hospital and be surprised, so a surprise it will be! I'm cool with it because I tend to like more gender neutral stuff anyways, and it will be great for our next LO because then we won't have all pink or all blue.
How are you feeling?
Pretty darn good overall, but still crazy emotional. I cry over EVERYTHING, mostly happy stuff, but everything. I've cried 5 times today. 5. And none of them was cry-worthy.
Favorite moment of the week?
Getting the good betas was awesome! Also, SO has been so sweet and attentive so I've been really enjoying this time with him.
Least favorite moment of the week?
One of our friends had to put his wife in hospice; they are both very active individuals and her decline in health was extremely sudden. I am heartbroken for them.
How are your symptoms? Getting better? Worse? Any new ones?
They are about the same. Some new stretching feelings and even though I know it's not baby, I look visibly pregnant. Based on the beta doubling rate and my belly, I'm starting to wonder how many I've got in there!
How is PGAL brain treating you? Any T&P requests?
I'm doing okay most days although I would sure love a 4th beta this week to get me through till my u/s on the 29th. I've bought a couple maternity things that I found on sale (in addition to the new bras that were non-negotiable; up two whole cup sizes!), but can't bring myself to buy anything baby-related until after the u/s.
Any upcoming appointments or milestones you're looking forward to?
U/s on the 29th; can't wait to see one (or two) healthy heartbeat(s)!
~*~*~*GTKY questions:~*~*~*
@Birch113 Good luck on your appt
@magbmeg Congrats and I hope the m/s subsides.
@haleyusf We are also team green and I can tell you it really is the best surprise ever.
7 weeks blueberry
If you’re far enough along, are you having a boy or girl or are you team green? (This is to update the list, so if you’re already on there no need to answer again!)
Unknown
How are you feeling?
My back is killing me and I want to eat everything.
Favorite moment of the week?
It will be tomorrow as I think we are announcing then.
Least favorite moment of the week?
Freezing my butt off doing bus duty. (I'm a teacher).
How are your symptoms? Getting better? Worse? Any new ones?
Meh. I lose one and get another.
How is PGAL brain treating you? Any T&P requests?
Yes, I'm nervous about announcing. I know I can't jinx myself so I don't know why I freak out.
Any upcoming appointments or milestones you're looking forward to?
8 week ultrasound next week!
~*~*~*GTKY questions:~*~*~*
Does anyone have anything fun planned for the weekend?
Just normal Easter festivities
Hi Ladies! I hope everyone is having a good week!
@slensic I'm doing pretty ok, just crossing the days off until my next u/s, thanks for asking! Also, my screen name is LT, not it. I know it looks like it
, I regret my screen name, it's boring and confusing, but having to create a whole new profile to change it seems a bit overwhelming so I just leave it.
How far along are you? What fruit/veggie are you?
8 weeks, raspberry
If you’re far enough along, are you having a boy or girl or are you team green? (This is to update the list, so if you’re already on there no need to answer again!)
green for now
How are you feeling?
tired, always tired
Favorite moment of the week?
We found and secured a rental house during our house hunting trip! Wahoo! We are moving from the SF Bay Area where we have a 2 bedroom apartment because everything is &^%$%^& expensive and we found a 3 bedroom single family home in a Chicago suburb for $500 less per month than we pay for this darn apartment.
Least favorite moment of the week?
Throwing up in the car while we were talking to the realtor on speaker phone. She was super nice about it though; she knew I was pregnant and not feeling great.
How are your symptoms? Getting better? Worse? Any new ones?
meh, I seem to be on a rotating schedule, 1 super crappy day, 1 pretty great day, and 1-2 mildly crappy days.
How is PGAL brain treating you? Any T&P requests?
I think I'm doing pretty good. I get a little nervous when I read about the ladies who go into their 12 week appointment to find that the baby has stopped growing. This was not how my previous mc happened, and I have no reason to believe that it will happen in this pregnancy, but it still freaks me out. I'll be very glad to have my 12 week u/s past me.
Any upcoming appointments or milestones you're looking forward to?
Nothing soon. As mentioned above I'm really looking forward to the 12 week appointment. Also, it will be my first appointment in Chicago with the new practice that I chose.
