***Aug'14 PAIF Check-in 5/2/14***

I am so, so, so very sorry I forgot to post last week's check-in! Things were insanely busy at work and it just totally slipped my mind!

Hello everyone! This is a weekly check-in for those who are PAIF, both first time and 2if. We will check-in with each other on Fridays. If you are joining the check-in for the first time, please include your EDD and team. A lot of us still have relevant IF info in our siggys, but feel free to include your story too!

1. How is everything going?

2. Upcoming appointments?

QOTW: What is your favorite guilty pleasure song or TV show?

@cachoque‌ 8/2/14

@Alyson718 8/3/14 Team Blue I hope you have been able to take it easy today!

@ThoseThreeWords‌ 8/4/14 Team Green How is life as a "boring" pregnant lady?

@vanillajen‌ 8/4/14 Team Pink My successful cycle was a lot like yours - not a cycle where we did any procedures! I hope the single artery cord doesn't cause any problems for you!

@loulou182‌ 8/6/14 Team Pink The 4D ultrasound that you had - was it by request of your doctor or an elective? (my a/s was a disappointing experience and I am considering an elective because I want to have a positive u/s experience)

@HeatherHam10‌ 8/17/14 Team Blue When is your glucose test?

Re: ***Aug'14 PAIF Check-in 5/2/14***

  • So everything here seems to be going well. I fell today when I was walking to my office. I think I tripped on the transition of the carpet to hardwood in a hallway, but it could have been from the balance disorder too. I fell on my hands and knees, so I didn't fall on my belly, but she has been kicking me like crazy since it happened. I hope everything is okay in there and she is just reacting to the turbulence. 

    I won't have another appointment for 3 weeks and they are doing my glucose then. Super not psyched about that. I had to call and have them set aside lemon/lime because I am allergic to some orange dyes. 

    QOTW: I love me some 80s music, especially on a road trip. Also, while hate reality TV like Survivor, The Bachelor, Big Brother, etc. I do love Flipping Out, Million Dollar Listing, and Southern Charm.

  • @ThoseThreeWords I think I am okay. I usually fall a couple of times a year with this stupid balance disorder (Meniere's Diesease), but I just hadn't fallen since I was pregnant. She has been consistently active since 11 when I fell, so it has my paif/pgal brain freaked, but I also am probably being more attentive to the motion because I am worried. So I think all is fine. 

    Lesson learned though: no more heels for the rest of this pregnancy.

  • Glad you and baby are ok @allison7!! 

    1. How is everything going? Still going well so far! My hips and pelvic area have started to get achy, which isn't fun but I still feel pretty good. 

    2. Upcoming appointments? Next one is a week from Monday (the 12th) and we'll be meeting with the high risk Dr. again to check on Charlotte's kidneys and overall growth. Also doing my glucose test that day. I did it while going through IF testing, so I'm not really dreading it that much. 

    QOTW: What is your favorite guilty pleasure song or TV show? Anything on Bravo! And MTV'S The challenge. So embarrassing!
