Re: PgAL check in 8/1
Do you have any upcoming appointments or milestones? Nope. No OB appointment for another 3 weeks, but then after that I go weekly. I need to make the major decision on whether or not to get a cerclage (it is unlikely I have IC, but it is a small possibility).
Any pregnancy symptoms or pregnancy cravings or aversions? I find myself gravitating to whole grains and salmon, which is good because I can eat it without feeling sick.
QOTW: How did you tell your family and friends about this pregnancy? Haven't done it yet... I'm waiting until the time feels right, but when it happens I have a great way to surprise them!
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Weirdly enough, I am worried about my right leg. I think the swelling from PIO shots is bothering a nerve and my leg keeps falling asleep. Only one more week of PIO!!!
Do you have any upcoming appointments or milestones? Not until late August, unless I start to get overly anxious. If that happens they said I could call and come in early.
Any pregnancy symptoms or pregnancy cravings or aversions? Not yet, just hungry a lot. I had a lot of morning sickness (all day sickness) with Lincoln starting around week 8, so I'm a little nervous.
QOTW: How did you tell your family and friends about this pregnancy? Haven't told many people yet. Just my sister and one friend. Nothing special, just said "Guess what!"
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Missing Lincoln a lot this week. I visited him yesterday and told him all the things he should be sure to be doing, that being an angel doesn't mean he doesn't have to keep eating his veggies (he'd be almost 11 months old now, so I think he should be trying lots of veggies). And that he has to be a good big brother and look out for his new sister or brother. That helped me a little, just talking to him and imagining him having fun and doing "normal" things.
Do you have any upcoming appointments or milestones? Just had my a/s on Wed, everything looks great. This was the scan I was nervous about because this was when I found out Raynor's was measuring small and had issues. I can breath a bit now knowing this baby is healthy.
Any pregnancy symptoms or pregnancy cravings or aversions? Acid reflux and more acid reflux. No cravings, just can't eat chicken.
QOTW: How did you tell your family and friends about this pregnancy? I surprised my mom and sister when I met them in FL at 17 weeks. So far, only immediate family knows I'm pregnant, I haven't told friends or extended family yet.
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Missing my baby boy, wishing he was here. I've been feeling this baby kick since week 17 and freak out when I don't feel her, so I always end up drinking soda to get her to kick. Poor baby, probably not getting any sleep because I'm always nervous.
@ikrystal, thank you! And congratulations to you!
Also, I'm jealous you're craving whole grains and salmon. My hunger goes more toward Chipotle...and not even with brown rice. Great work being healthy!
Can I join??!!!
How far along are you? Just shy of 5 weeks
Do you have any upcoming appointments or milestones? Yes, my first ultrasound is this upcoming Monday which is also my birthday oddly enough!
Any pregnancy symptoms or pregnancy cravings or aversions? Each day seems to get a little stronger but I've been having waves of nausea. Pretty tired starting around 3-4pm aaaaaand everything tastes funny. I love chocolate and a friend bought me some really fancy ones but blech
QOTW: How did you tell your family and friends about this pregnancy? We're going to tell my MIL/FIL tomorrow. I thought of incorporating Skittles somehow as a rainbow reference but honestly I'm so exhausted I don't know if its going to happen. We'll probably just say, "hey ...FYI...." and then I'm going to wait until my bday when my parents call to tell them on the phone (they live out of state)
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Just anxious for our u/s....a week is a long time between appts.!

Do you have any upcoming appointments or milestones? I have an ultrasound appt with the MFM specialist today, and an appt with my midwife next Tuesday.
Any pregnancy symptoms or pregnancy cravings or aversions? Fatigue stills comes and goes. That seems to be the main symptom these days.
QOTW: How did you tell your family and friends about this pregnancy? I told my mom the day got my BFP, at 12 dpo. I was in such shock and needed to tell someone. I told my husband that evening, and about a couple weeks later told my older cousin and father. We didn't go public until 8 weeks.
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Just hoping everything goes well at the ultrasound today. I had horrible anxiety during the first and early part of the second trimester. It seemed difficult to shake the fear, and I used my doppler here and there for temporary reassurance. But over the last month or so I have made more of an attempt to be optimistic and try not to stress out. In the back of my head, I worry and wonder, but then I realize that it's out of my hands, and to enjoy the moments I do have with her.
I am terrible about filling this out on time, but better late than never, right?
How far along are you? 10 weeks today
Do you have any upcoming appointments or milestones? We have a regular appointment on Monday 8/11, and then the NT scan the next week on 8/19
Any pregnancy symptoms or pregnancy cravings or aversions? I'm mostly just tired all the time. I've been a little nauseous on and off, but not bad at all.
QOTW: How did you tell your family and friends about this pregnancy? We told our family right away, most of them the day I tested, and a couple the next day. We've been mostly telling friends as we see them/talk to them. I haven't been as excited to share the news this time around, but we have told a good amount of people. I guess I've just been nervous, and that makes me more hesitant to share.
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Q has been on my mind, as always. I think about how close in age the two would be (13 months), and that makes me sad to know this one will never know his/her brother.
