    Good morning!

    1.  How far along are you now?  I am 12 weeks 1 day (ticker is a day behind)

    2.  Any updates - doctors appointments, ultrasounds, labwork, etc? no appointments for me until another 3 weeks. but that's a good thing, means all is right on track  ;)

    3.  How are your symptoms? my symptoms are ok, my MS has subsided almost completely. and I do feel like I now have a baby bump.. not a bloat, so I am so excited to show it off :)  (I had a very bad case of "food poisoning" yesterday. but I feel so much better today.)

    4.  GTKY: Who is your favorite actor/actress? I have too many of them, I cant pick just one.  but I guess I can say that I love seeing movies with Mark Wahlberg  ;)

    Hi all! I'm high risk because of Factor V and MTHFR, so on blood thinners which adds another level of complexity. I've also had cervical surgeries and my doctor is keeping a close eye on my cervix length. It's my first pregnancy.

    1. 10 weeks 3 days
    2. Nothing this week. I'm anxious for my next appointment!
    3. Sleeping all the time, no appetite, lots of dreams, some belly pain - cramping? Growing?
    4. Hm... I really like Emma Stone

    Please add me to the list - missmissie82 - (3rd Preg, 2nd baby) PCOS/Endo, Pre-E, PTL, Low Progesterone, Loss, HG & IUGR

    Sorry, I'm stuck in quote brackets.

    1.  How far along are you now?  almost 10 weeks

    2.  Any updates - doctors appointments, ultrasounds, labwork, etc? - baby is measuring small - about a week and a half behind schedule - BUT growing steadily.  BP is steady, Progesterone is finally back up!!!  WAHOO!!!  I have another u/s and appt in 2 weeks.

    3.  How are your symptoms?  Now it's just nausea.  All day.  And first am headaches. 

    4.  GTKY: Who is your favorite actor/actress?  Not 100% sure.  Ty Diggs, Sandra Bullock, Gracie Allen come to mind.  My favorite actor/actress combo is Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. LOVE watching them together.

    @RN536 - I am on Lovenox.  I've had two DVTs before (not pregnancy related), so that in addition to the FVL made my doctor and hematologist agree that I must be on thinners the entire pregnancy. I took baby aspirin between my BFP and the confirmation by ultrasound (about 6 weeks).

    1. How far along are you now?10w4d

    2. Any updates - doctors appointments, ultrasounds, labwork, etc? I did get a quick HB sono today. Nothing interesting. I did get the panorama test. I will be on edge until I get the results. My OB said if they don't cover it (I am 31) it will cost $495. I think it will be worth it for peace of mind even if they don't cover it, especially considering all the issues in the beginning. Praying for a healthy baby.

    3. How are your symptoms? Still some nausea and tiredness, but not bad.

    I should also mention this is my 1st pregancy. :)

    1. How far along are you now? 11 weeks today!

    2. Any updates - doctors appointments, ultrasounds, labwork, etc? Had an appt today, dr has increased my insulin since I stopped taking Metformin.

    3. How are your symptoms? Now that I am off Metformin I am now having the constipation...no fun!

    4. GTKY: Who is your favorite actor/actress? I have always loved Reese Witherspoon. She is so adorable and fun in all movies!!

    @haleyusf Thanks for the kind thoughts. I got the FISH results back today from my CVS and unfortunately it was bad news. My LO has Trisomy 18 and won't make it. I'm scheduled to go in for the procedure on Thursday. Good luck to all of you. We'll try again once we've been cleared an hopefully we'll have a better outcome on the third try.

    Hi, 

    I was hoping not to be high risk this pregnancy, but my doctor says I am. I went into preterm labor with my last pregnancy at 21 weeks(but thankfully with meds/shots/etc I made it to 36 weeks). I also make small babies, so they're gonna watch the weight carefully. I'm hoping for a non-eventful pregnancy this time!

    1.  How far along are you now? 11w5d

    2.  Any updates - doctors appointments, ultrasounds, labwork, etc? Not this week! :)

    3.  How are your symptoms? Nausea is easing up, but exhaustion is still in full force...I usually sleep 10 hours at night and then squeeze a nap in if I can. :) 

    4.  GTKY: Who is your favorite actor/actress? My favorite actor is Hugh Jackman(kill me now), and favorite actress is Julia Roberts

    3. How are your symptoms?
    My morning sickness is pretty much gone, and I'm starting to get a little more energy. I have been hormonal and emotion though, as work has been very stressful lately. Thank God for my DH, who has been taking great care of me!
