***2nd Tri Check-in 5/13/14***

This is a weekly check-in for members in their second trimester. You can feel free to join at 14 weeks and we will bid you an excited farewell on your way to third tri after 27 weeks.

If there are any newcomers that would like to be added to the list, post below and include your EDD.

*************************************************************************

How far along are you this week? Any appointments or other updates? Also, please let me know if I have your “team” listed correctly or if it needs to be updated.

    @Allison7 appt yesterday went great- it was a wonderful Monday :) DH and I slept in after a lovely Mother's Day weekend, had breakfast and coffee, went to the OB office, and saw the NP this time. I should have been more excited to see her because she turned out to be great! She used to be a L&D nurse at the hospital where I'll be delivering, and she was full of helpful information. She also recommended a ton of books and gave me her perspective on meds, birthing methods, etc. Spent a lot of time with us and didn't seem rushed- all in all a great experience. She also said things couldn't be more perfect with me or baby. I was a little concerned about my weight gain but she wasn't the least bit fazed, and that made me feel a lot better about eating one (or two) of the Oreo/peanut butter/brownie cupcakes I made this weekend for our out of town guests ;)

    I think we are going to end up buying the convertible crib with the gate at the top so I can reach in easily- DH said over the weekend if I think that's what I really need he wants me to have whatever makes life easier. Thankful he came to his senses without me having to do anything but wait a few days.

    QOTW: Well it used to be going camping and floating the river with a cooler of beer. We both love to swim and both his parents and my Dad have a pool so I suspect we'll spend a lot of time with them in addition to going to our community pool. Over the weekend I made the mistake of trying to fit into a pre-pregnancy bikini (the only one that didn't make me look like a pudgy pornstar). The increase in my "assets" has made buying a maternity swimsuit a must!

    Hi ladies! @Allison7, thank you as always for an awesome check in! You put so much effort into them. :) I'm 26w3d today, my cervical check last week had stayed the same from the week prior which is great news! It actually grew by 0.2cm which is a physical impossibility but I'll take staying the same as a good sign. My OB appointment today went well, babies look good and are moving around like crazy. Baby A had the hiccups today which was pretty cool to watch. Glucose tolerance test scheduled for Monday so that's one more thing off of the list although I'm not looking forward to drinking that super sugary drink. QOTW: My favorite part of summer is definitely going to the beach. There isn't much better than a good book on the beach with waves crashing in the background.

    Thanks @Allison7‌ for the great check-in.

    Nothing new to report. 17weeks on Thursday. I'm feeling better, just an annoying cough. I bought my 1st pair of maternity pants. I LOVE them! SOOOO Comfy! I may never go back to real jeans again! I'll just buy smaller sizes as I lose baby weight! LOL

    QOTW:
    Sitting around fire pit at night & swimming in our pool. Usually drink in hand. Guess I'm going to need to find a new summer drink.

    @Allison7, thank you for the personalized check-in :)  Hope your uncle is improving!

    @Aurora1181, that's so funny.  I wonder who's right!

    Today is V-Day!  Yippy skippy.  @GettinCrafty - congrats to us!  Next Tuesday is my next app't which includes GTT.  I really hope it takes a week to get results since next Friday afternoon is when we leave for our babymoon.  I felt Munchkin's first really deliberate kicks yesterday, which was fun.  

    Funny story: The other day when I was at Orchard Supply Hardware I asked for help carrying a bag of soil since it was heavier than I'm comfortable lifting, and the woman looked at me like, huh?  And I cradled my belly and said, "She doesn't like it when I lift more than 8 pounds."  And the woman goes, "Oh, gosh, you're pregnant!  You're so tiny, I didn't even notice!"  I'm up 19 lbs at 24 weeks so "tiny" is not a word I'd use to describe myself.

    QOTW: Love going to the beach, which we don't do very often even though we live in LA.  Normally I love relaxing in the hot tub at my MIL's but that's out for now!

    Hey everyone, so my Uncle is doing well! He is officially off of sedation (although he still sleeps a lot). He has moved all of his limbs and he has no paralysis. He is talking, too. He is still in the hospital :( but it is because believe that the meds for his afib caused the stroke. They aren't giving him any meds for afib now, but he is better off in the hospital in case he has a heart issue. Once some of the blood recedes, they will start him on a different protocol for afib and then he can move to rehab!

    @Allison7 - Can I be added too? Also waving 'hi' from another Pennsylvanian. . .central PA.

    I'm 14 weeks today with twins with an EDD 11/12/14.

    I'm excited and in a bit of shock being in the 2nd tri. I had a pretty rough first tri with nausea and dry heaving & for the most part they are gone. However, I do have moments, which I'll take because it is better than 24/7 nausea. Other than that nothing else since I don't have my next appointment until the A/S on June 20th.

    QOTW: being outside (either exercising, cooking or eating) and just enjoying the good weather.

    Hi everyone, sorry for the late check-in.  My appointment last week was great, I got to hear the heartbeat for the first time, which sounded good at 151.  Also my OB said that I can keep doing bi-weekly appointments until I start to feel the baby moving, which makes me happy.  So next appointment is next Friday, then the A/S 2-3 weeks after that!

    QOTW- doing anything outside in the sun, walking the dogs, lounging around, swimming (when I have access to a pool), gardening, etc.

    @allison7 thanks for the check-in :)

    I am 18 weeks. Appt next week, and anatomy scan either the last week of May or first week of June. I've started feeling occasional movement which is always exciting. Heartburn has definitely set in, but overall I am feeling better every day.

     

    QOTW: Going out on the boat with family. My uncle and cousin both have pontoon boats and we go out every weekend. We usually tie the boats up and it's always a great time. It's a no wake lake so it's completely safe. I love being out on the water, it's so relaxing.

    Hi everyone I'm 16 weeks this week . What a week my brother got married last Friday and then on Saturday I had extreme pain in my pelvic area and was unable to urinate at all sorry if that's tmi the pain got so bad I put a call into my Obgyn's office and they told me to go to labor and delivery to see what was going and to rule out a uti. Well I get to the hospital and I was barely able to get out of the car they take me to the floor where they test me for a uti that was negative and put a catheter in me to relieve that pain of me not being able to urinate. The dr checks me and says the reason I was in this pain was I have the rare case of my cervix being so high that it was causing pressure on my bladder by where our little munchkin was laying ( tilted uterus was also an issue) more importantly our little one was rocking out in there and we were so thrilled to hear the baby was healthy and happy inside of me when we heard our little ones heartbeat thumping away. Fast forward to Monday the catheter was hurting me so then I had to go back to the hosiptal and have them take out ( if only I knew they would be putting it back in at 1am the next day) so then that brought me to my bday Wednesday i finally was able to get it taken out and the problem seems to have resolved itself thank goodness. So that brings us up to our next baby check in appointment which is June 10th followed by our anatomy scan on June 11th. :) oh and we have hardwood flooring getting installed in the nursery in the next couple of weeks I can't wait to start getting the nursery ready. Have A nice weekend everyone!

    Super late check in at 15w5d. Not much going on; am waiting to do 2nd trimester screening blood work next week.

    My jeans with the stretch top are bugging me to no end today. Can't wait to get back into sweats at home.

    Stressing a bit about child care prospects and the hunt for the right fit.

    QOTW: summer time is time for fruits - berries, peaches, and melons.

    thank you I'm feeling a lot better wasn't a fan of wearing a take home foley catheter attached to my leg when I'm such an active person.
                     

    TTC since 2012 

    Dx : DOR

    IUI #1 (Follistim switched over to Menopur injections) - BFN

    Attempted IUI #2 (Menopur injections only cycle) better response on the Menopur then the Follistim combination treatment cycle however my cycle was still canceled due to my eggs not maturing and follicles not growing enough on a high dose of Menopur (Re said I could try a cycle of comid + ovidrel  for an IUI) for my second IUI( praying this works for us)

      Clomid + Ovidrel protocol worked still a BFN as a result

    Attempted cycle  Clomid  + Ovidrel protocol for IUI # 3 (Unable to do this cycle due to a cyst)

    IUI # 3 Clomid+ Ovidrel protocol - BFP    Beta #1 752  Beta #2  1536    Beta #3 3797

    Hey Everyone! Sorry - I am late with the update too.  I'm 15 1/2 weeks!  I have an appointment on Friday. I am so excited because I'll get an ultrasound. I haven't had one since 7 weeks, so it will be great to see the baby! I think my doctor will be checking my cervix for shortening.  I guess this is routine with people who've had a LEEP (procedure to remove abnormal cells after a abnormal pap). My anatomy scan is coming up June 4th around 18 weeks. 

    I paid my first visit to a maternity store and didn't like anything there! I did end up going to Old Navy and got a few t-shirts and a dress. Maternity shopping isn't as fun as I thought it would be.

    QOTW - Summer - I love sleeping in, vacations, beach, bbq, etc!

    Me:38 - TTC for 3+years - Multiple failed IUIs (w/clomid, femara,injectibles - all BFNs) IVF #1 - Jan 2012, CP -IVF#2 March 2012, CP - Went back to IUIs all summer. Multi-Cycle Egg banking for FET. Egg retrieval #1 October, 2 frosties. Retrieval#2 January 2013. 6 eggs banked - waiting to be fertilized in March, FET March! Zero eggs survived thaw process - FET Cancelled. New RE - Now banking Embryos for PGS - July ER- 3 eggs retrieved, 3 fertilized, 1 genetically normal embryo! FET - Feb. 2014, BFP - Mar. 2014, EDD 11/6/14 It's a GIRL!

    @Allison7‌ and everyone else - it's wonderful to see you all doing so well (or at least hanging in there!) I have been terribly remiss and haven't checked in in ages. So here goes:

    How far along are you this week? 25 weeks! Crazy. I want LO to stay put long as possible, but I'm so over pregnancy right now. Still queasy, horrible sciatica, not sleeping well, exhausted and still having to deal with work pressures = super stressed. None of it is that big of a deal in the grand scheme, and I feel bad even complaining with what we went through to get here, but I am anyway!

    Any appointments or other updates? My next appt and GTT is June 5th. Not looking forward to the icky drink.

    Team girl, although we are trying to avoid the pink overload as much as possible. I want baby girl to know there's a world of color beyond pink and it's all for her ;)“team”

    QOTW: I love summer beach bonfires and picnics at outdoor concert venues- the usual bottle of wine will be sorely missed this summer.

    *Ticker/Siggy Warning*

    Me: 37 DH: 38 TTC since 2011 DH normal Dx: DOR (AFC ranges from 6-11; AMH 0.16; FSH 11.9; E2 45) 11/13: 1st IVF converted to IUI due to poor response to high dose antagonist protocol (only 3 follies) = BFN 12/13: IUI #2 letrozole + Bravelle = BFP, beta #1 156, beta #2 196 (diff. lab), beta #3 1037; 1st ultrasound @ 5 wks 1 day = 6 mm gest sac; 2nd ultrasound 6 wks 1 day = tiny flickering heartbeat; 3rd ultrasound 7 wks 1 day 10.3 mm embie growing away! 

    PAIF/SAIF Welcome!
