Re: *~* 4/30 PGAL Check-In *~*
Upcoming appointments? A/S today!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How are you feeling? Good except for hip pain from side sleeping. It goes away when I'm not in bed, or if I turn over, so it's not too bad. Last night DH and I put an egg crate mattress pad on my side of the bed and I bought a boppy cuddle pillow, and those two things seemed to help a lot. This is just a reminder of why I hate side sleeping!
Best thing this week (pregnancy related or not)? A/S this week!
Worst thing this week (pregnancy related or not)? RAIN. Again, I can't complain after all those tornadoes in the south. But 5" of rain in two days is a lot and it's miserable taking the dog out.
GTKY: What is your favorite thing about being pregnant so far? Having a good excuse to nap and go to bed at 8pm.
How many weeks/days are you? 19w5d
Upcoming appointments? A/S this Friday!!! Haven't seen the babe in almost 2 months. can't wait!
How are you feeling/rants/raves? Nervous and excited for Friday
Best thing this week (pregnancy related or not)? The bump is certainly there and I'm out of the awkward in between stage and I get my hair colored today- it's been almost 6 months - eek!
Worst thing this week (pregnancy related or not)?- back to work after a week of vacay (that's not really bad, but you know )
GTKY: What is your favorite thing about being pregnant so far? - Shallow Answer: getting out of lifting heavy things and cleaning when it involves harsher chemicals Heartfelt Answer: getting closer to having my rainbow baby!
Off BC, NTNP since June 2011
Started acupuncture/herbs July 2012
First BFP 9-8-2012,EDD 5-15-2013, heartbeat of 175 at 8w2d, mmc discovered on 10-26-12 (11w6d) Cytotec on 10/26/12
8/23/13 DX with non-IR PCOS

Third BFP (surprise at Beta draw after d&c) on 1/10/14 (15dpo), EDD 9.20.14 Please be our RAINBOW!
Upcoming appointments?: Today! We have our a/s and I an insanely excited and nervous. We haven't seen our little girl since 9.5 weeks so I am excited to see her! Other than that we hope our results are normal.
How are you feeling/rants/raves?: Physical therapy for my back is really helping. I'm glad I spoke up a few weeks ago about the pain. Other than that I have some weird pelvic pain that I woke up this morning with, so I'm glad I have an appointment today and can ask about. On the right side of my pelvic bone near the vaginal opening I have a pain and soreness that I haven't felt before. I also haven't felt anything yet. No movement, flutters, nada. So I want to ask them about that too.
Best thing this week (pregnancy related or not)?: My husband got home last night from his 5 day "Man Trip" with my Dad. Although I'm glad he went, I really missed him and am glad he's home now.
Worst thing this week (pregnancy related or not)?: I was told by someone on Sunday that I definitely do not look pregnant, I just look like I am fat in the belly and need to loose weight. Seriously, who the hell says that to someone they know is pregnant?
GTKY: What is your favorite thing about being pregnant so far?: Physically - nothing, it has sucked so far. My favorite thing so far would have to be 1) being pregnant; 2) making it past our loss milestone; and 3) finding out we are having a girl.

:x
@Squiddly – Good luck at your a/s today! I can’t wait to see an update!
@HorseLover11 – Good luck at your a/s Friday! I can’t wait to see an update! I am right there with you as far as your “shallow answer” goes. I’ve love having my husband clean the bathroom for me!
@TenThree – I’m jealous of your 5k! From being a runner to being put on pelvic rest from weeks 5-12, then having major back pain – I have really missed running.
@MrsHamon09 – Glad I am not the only one who isn’t feeling anything yet! That makes me feel better, but come on damnit – I wanna feel her already, lol.
@nyg2042 – Thanks for the reassurance! I am just itching to feel her already. I think it will make it much more real for me at that point. Good luck at your a/s on Friday!! I can’t wait to see an update!
@PeopleKnowMe – I agree with you about the rain! I am over it. Where is the sun?
@rlyttle – Good luck at your a/s next week! I can’t wait to see an update. And how in the heck do you get your husband to give you nightly back rubs? I need to get my husband on that program ASAP!
@bethybeach – Sorry to hear about your cough. Hopefully it gets better soon. I am with you on the whole being pregnant feeling. I’m pretty well over it and think the whole physical part of it sucks monkey-nuts. I can’t wait to meet our little girl though.
@TheEmpireNeedsYou – Thank you! Sorry you are having a hard time this time around. Congrats to your husband! It has to feel awesome for him to finally be done.
@kmbk27 – I will update your EDD next week on the list. Good luck with your a/s today! I can’t wait to see an update. Sorry to hear about your old manager.
@ve304856 – Good luck at your a/s on Monday! I can’t wait to see an update. I am right there with you with the out of control hormones. Holy crap balls, I never knew I could be this hormonal – ever!
@TinkL0ver – Glad you found a place to live! Hopefully you will start feeling better soon.
@OrdyMama12 – Good luck with your appointment tomorrow.
@AnnieBN – Good luck with your a/s Friday! I can’t wait to see an update. Happy belated Anniversary!!!
Married: August 2012
DD: 9/22/2014
Upcoming appointments? Anatomy scan tomorrow
How are you feeling/rants/raves? Really good today! Lately though: headaches, crampy, TIRED, hungry - baby must be seriously growing!
Best thing this week (pregnancy related or not)? DS started soccer with 2 of his cousins. It is adorable!
Worst thing this week (pregnancy related or not)? I was super crampy last week so I was home from work for 2 1/2 days. I saw the dr twice and there were no cervical changes so, apparently, I *might* just have an irritable uterus. I hope it doesn't get that bad again because I was so worried. They rescheduled my anatomy scan from Monday to Thursday so they can check my cervix. I was so mad at first that I had to wait another 3 days! I'm pretty confident now that I feel better that everything's fine but I'm glad they're taking me seriously.
GTKY: What is your favorite thing about being pregnant so far? Feeling my baby growing strong and thinking about how much DS is going to (eventually) love having a sibling. He loves playing with other kids so I'm really excited for him to have a little brother or sister!
21w3d
Upcoming appointments?
Had a/s last week, next appt is 3 weeks from now
How are you feeling/rants/raves?
I feel great. Had a ridiculous nosebleed this morning in the shower...looked like Psycho lol
Best thing this week (pregnancy related or not)?
I am loving knowing the sex and giving baby girl a name. It makes her more real to me. I totally melt to mush when I feel her move too. It has also been really fun picking things for her registry. I have such hopes for her.
Worst thing this week (pregnancy related or not)?
Got glutened (I have celiac disease) and spent the weekend crying in a fetal position hoping to God my baby couldn't feel anything. Everything I've read says it won't affect her though. I just worry.
GTKY: What is your favorite thing about being pregnant so far?
I am just so generally over the moon. This baby is everything I have ever wanted. I am so thankful, and still in disbelief.
Gemma
born August 31, 2014
Upcoming appointments? A/S next week!
How are you feeling/rants/raves? I've been sleeping like crap this week, and every time I think about exercising my knees start to hurt.
Best thing this week (pregnancy related or not)? We are 3 for 3 this week of my PITA coworker taking the day off sick. Life is so much less stressful when she's not around.

GTKY: What is your favorite thing about being pregnant so far? Seeing my tummy get big
Jan 18 December Siggy Challenge: Christmas Movies

Best thing this week (pregnancy related or not)? My parents informed me yesterday that they will be purchasing the crib, mattress AND stroller when they are visiting next weekend.
Worst thing this week (pregnancy related or not)? DH found out yesterday that he'll be working a trial in May that will make him miss our anniversary for the second year in a row and he'll be gone about 4 weeks. He'll then be home for 1 to 2 weeks before leaving for another 4 week trial.

How many weeks/days are you? 21 weeks 4 days
Upcoming appointments? A second a/s next week (better look at heart)
How are you feeling/rants/raves? Tired; I need a vacation! Aside from that, pretty good
Best thing this week (pregnancy related or not)? Feeling her move, as always
Worst thing this week (pregnancy related or not)? Crying about my mum and Marianne; the losses seem to get harder the further I get along in this pregnancy...
GTKY: What is your favorite thing about being pregnant so far? Two things: 1) I'm a weirdo who used to watch medical shows/surgeries with my mother, and so I love how my body is changing; I love looking at myself naked and being like "WHO IS THIS" heheh.
How many weeks/days are you? 22 weeks
Upcoming appointments? Not for awhile

Good luck at all the appointments today!
How many weeks/days are you? 20 weeks, 3 days
Upcoming appointments: Anatomy Scan this Friday morning!
How are you feeling/rants/raves? I'm feeling good! My rant is that sleep is less and less comfortable, but my rave is that it's because baby is causing quite a bump and we've had a growth spurt the past few weeks.
Best thing this week: More feelings of baby. Plus, I finally made a copy of our most recent u/s (a month ago) to put in the frame on our fridge.
Worst thing this week: Mom drama. She gave me hell about wanting to come to an u/s, and is now giving me hell that it's on Friday and she has to miss work. I'm sorry, my place doesn't do weekends. Your choices are come when I can have the appointment or pay for an elective one.
GTKY: My favorite thing about being pregnant so far other than being pregnant itself is that people are starting to point out the bump and say cute things about the baby. I've been lucky to not get any obnoxious comments so far, so I am loving showing.
