Gestation in weeks/fruit: 11w2d Lime!!
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically I'm starting to feel better this week. It still comes and goes though. Boobs are still sore, lots of gas. Emotionally I'm still in disbelief. I don't know that that will ever change. But I'm starting to get excited. I've started telling people. It's getting weird (well people that don't know about my history).
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: My next OB appointment is September 3rd and my anatomy scan is October 1st. I will likely call next week to go in for a doppler check and I need to call to schedule Maternity21 testing next week. But it's official that I'm the most pregnant that I've ever been :-D
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? Mrs. Doubtfire is a classic and has always been my favorite! I'm so sad to hear of his passing, he was such a great comedian and actor.How are you feeling physically? Emotionally?: Nauseous, tired, heartburn, and body sore. I'm a little more anxiety ridden the last couple of days. Things are becoming more real for both me and DH, it's good, but also overwhelming.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: My next appt/US is at 8w5d, and if all goes well, will mark the longest we have ever been pregnant with a viable pregnancy.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? I have three, I can't choose just one!!! Mrs. Doubtfire, Hook, and Jumanji!!!
Gestation in weeks/fruit: Lime!
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically I felt almost myself again yesterday which was pretty awesome. Still very tired but didn't feel quite so run down. Emotionally not so great. I was so happy to have a good ultrasound last week that we actually got to see our baby and the heartbeat and all. But the doctor called yesterday and I have to do for another one next week for some more measurements.. the baby might have an umbilical hernia. Which they said shouldn't be anything to worry about, but of course my Pgal brain is going crazy.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Follow up ultrasound next week to check the potential umbilical hernia and to take some measurements for genetic testing.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? Hmm he was such a great actor! I think Patch Adams would be my favourite, but its so hard to choose.
EDD (if this is your first time on the check in): EDD is March 2nd although I am measuring 3 days ahead so I may be late February but they are going by my LMP.
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 11w3d
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically feeling pretty good. Emotionally I am feeling better finally had my first u/s and all is well so far going in for another u/s with the MFM on the 27th at which time I am hoping to ask her more about p17 shots and when they will be starting cervical checks. It feels so long away before I pass my loss date. Also I have a hard time seeing people post on here about how they are almost in the 2nd tri and how unlikely it is to have a loss after 2nd tri. I thought that too last pregnancy and now know how wrong I was and will not feel at ease until I have a healthy baby in my arms.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Next appointment is August 27the for the first look u/s then have another appointment 3 weeks after that.

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 11w3d/lime
How are you feeling physically? Well, I threw up a little in my mouth this morning if that tells you anything. My nausea, fatigue, and boob soreness has been at its worst the past few days. Emotionally? Feeling much better and starting to get excited. Looking forward to my next appointment and hearing the heartbeat on the doppler, because I feel like it will me just a little more reassurance.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Next appointment is Aug 25th. I've passed all of my loss milestones, so I'm also officially the most pregnant that I've been. Now I just have my first due date coming up in September.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? It's a toss up between Dead Poets Society and Hook. I'm so so sad about this news.
It's so nice to see some of the weeks getting in the double digits now!
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 9w6d. Olive (I think?)
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically my symptoms seem to come and go more than being constant. Emotionally, I'm doing ok. We told our families last night and had a pretty miserable reaction from the in laws. (Nothing particularly about the baby. They're just miserable in general). We also told our 4 year old daughter and she is insisting its "her" baby and is so excited. She's amazing.
Upcoming appts/milestones: we had a perfect sonogram yesterday at our very first appt. Baby is measuring right on track with a strong heartbeat.
GTKY: I'm so sad about Robin Williams. I will always love Mrs. Doubtfire and of course, Aladdin.
Good luck to this with appointments this week!
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 8w5d
How are you feeling physically? I'm feeling a little worse than I was last week. M/S is flaring up for me. I've gone from regular queasiness to occasional vomiting. I'm also seeing more acne so that's not cool. Emotionally? The increase of symptoms help me feel more confident. When I feel icky, all I can do is think about my little bean growing.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: My first appointment is one week from now on 8/19. I'm so excited and nervous at the same time.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? It's hard to choose but I guess I'd have to say Mrs. Doubtfire or Jumanji.
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 7 weeks 6 days/blueberry
How are you feeling physically? I'm doing good but very tired still. MS is kind of picking up for me but still haven't actually been sick. Just gagging when I change my son's poopy diapers.I've been spotting when wiping since my internal ultrasound so that's messed me up... Emotionally? Because of the spotting I'm worried sick, even though we saw the baby 6 days ago. I also had a dream that I was miscarrying which was awful...
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: No appointments until the 28th of August and then I'm sure another ultrasound the week after that.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? Such sad news, breaks my heart. I think Patch Adams, although it is so sad it is amazing.
How are you feeling physically? Still exhausted & nauseous. I'm hoping it gets better in the next week or two. Emotionally? I'm staying positive & using my mantra when I need it.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: bloodwork today (genetic testing)
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? Mrs. Doubtfire, he was such a talented man & I'm so sad he was suffering with mental health issues that lead him to suicide. I wish the US had a better mental health care system.

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? I just got over a GI bug-- TMI non stop diarrhea for two days, followed by just feeling gross. I was really worried about dehydration and the baby, but I'm feeling better today and I have an appt next week. Hopefully LO is doing great! Oh and it was my only vacation of the summer and I was sick the entire time!
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Next Wednesday, NT scan.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? Mrs. Doubtfire.
How are you feeling physically? emotionally? Symptoms have been majorly decreasing, which is seriously messing with my pgal brain. Had a funny smelling avocado yesterday and paid for it last night - kept telling myself the cramps were practice for labor. Took a long vacation which majorly helped with depression, which was getting bad.
Upcoming appointments or milestones:
My first u/s is 2ma, and I'm scared to death. At least DH will be there this time, but I'm just so scared of what they will (or won't) find.
GTKY: Aladdin all the way, although he was an amazingly versatile actor, and his more serious movies like Good Will Hunting were great too.
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 9w3d, Olive/Cherry
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? I feel ok. Symptoms aren't as bad as they have been, so just kind of blah overall.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: 12 week appt & u/s on the 27th (I'll be 11w4d)
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? I'm still shaken by this, deeply. Favorites are What Dreams May Come, One Hour Photo, Fern Gully, and Patch Adams
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 9w 6d/ A very large olive
How are you feeling physically? I am still so exhausted and have a constant headache. We had a very busy weekend and I did not get my nice long naps in so that has made this week hard so far. I also have a huge knot in my neck that is killing me, but I am trying so hard not to take anything for it.
Emotionally? This past week has been really hard. I cannot get over the feeling that something is wrong even though we had a great ultrasound last week. But today I am pregnant.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: On Thursday I go for my genetic blood test, and on the 28th we have the NT scan. I am hoping after all of that I will calm down a bit, but who knows.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? He was one of my favorite actors! I loved Mrs. Doubtfire and Good Will Hunting. Also loved Aladdin. This is such sad news!
BFP#3 5/22/17 | MC 6/17/17 at 7w3d
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally?
Feeling okay today! I did yoga for the first time in months yesterday, and despite being pretty sore, it made me feel really good physically and emotionally. You know that moment in a yoga workout where the instructor will say something along the lines of, "your body is letting out deep emotions right now- whatever you are feeling, let it out?" I used to think that was a crock, but I really feel it sometimes! (Still sometimes more than others.) But yesterday, it was just this fear and worry about exercising too hard or doing something that would make me miscarriage, and I teared up, but I tried as hard as I could to let it go. Not totally there (nor do I think I will be for a while), but it did help. I feel calmer and more peaceful about the pregnancy. Mental or not, who knows. But I'll take it!
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones:
Thursday is 11 weeks, which will make it the longest I've been preggo. Friday is appointment #2 for me, and I am ready to hopefully see a bigger bean in there!
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film?
So sad about this... toss up between Mrs. Doubtfire and Hook. My kid(s) will definitely know who Robin Williams is.
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 9w1d/olive
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Still extremely exhausted, nausea/vomiting seems to be getting a little worse. Can't really eat a normal amount of food without feeling really bloated and pukey. Emotionally i am doing ok, saw the little bean on Friday after meeting with the MFM about possibly needing Lovenox (I don't). He offered a quick scan for reassurance. I was alone and my first thought was getting bad news will really suck without DH but I took the chance and heard the hb!
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: NT scan 9/4, passed the point the baby stopped developing last time but since we discovered it at the NT scan I know I'll be super nervous going into that.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? Good Will Hunting probably, although I always lvoed the creepy One Hour Photo movie
@jap618 Yay for being the most pregnant you've ever been. That is wonderful.
@jcar2 That was crappy of your boss, I'm sorry.
@TMMaggie0424 and @MrsZko (((Hugs)))
MC: 2/19/14
@kaydedid Good luck at your appointment 2ma!
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 7w2d/blueberry
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? tired, indigestion, gassy and stopped up. I got some prune juice and feel so much better today! Emotionally I wonder if I'll ever not be inside my head with the what-ifs. I start to think happy/normal pregnant thoughts and then it's like I catch myself and get negative. Ugh.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Still with RE weekly - u/s tomorrow at 2:45

Pregnancy Loss Background (if this is your first time on the check-in): My miscarriage was 6 years ago, the day before father's day. I was eight weeks. The pregnancy and the miscarriage caught me completely off guard.
EDD (if this is your first time on the check in): Fertility Friend says March 9th and I'm inclined to believe that because it knew my cycle length and when I ovulated. My doctor said March 13th, but she just took my LMP and plugged it into her chart.
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 10 weeks
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Much better now that I have passed eight weeks. I'm not so much analyzing ever twinge. I'll feel even better at 12 weeks, lol. Physically: bloat, tired, sore boobs, lol.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Aug 23rd just-for-fun non-diagnostic ultrasound. Aug 25th 12 week appt.
GTKY -- He had soo many good ones. I think it's a tie between Patch Adams and Awakenings for me.
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 11 weeks 1 day
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically I feel okay. I haven't been sleeping well, I wake up constantly with back pain and that makes everything worse. The nausea and exhaustion, it's just a vicious cycle. I am so over the m/s but with DD it didn't go away until 14 weeks so I'm not hopeful. Emotionally doing great. I'm really looking forward to our u/s next week for more peace of mind.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: NT scan is scheduled for 8/21 and I cannot stress how much I'm looking forward to the u/s.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? Good Will Hunting, Aladdin and Hook.MC: 2/19/14
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 10 weeks today/prune
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Still pretty nauseous and exhausted. And I learned yesterday (from the symptom thread of course) that I am likely developing pregnancy-related carpal tunnel due to my waking up with tingly and numb fingers. Emotionally doing pretty well so far this week.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Next OB is in 2 weeks. We passed our final loss milestone over the weekend! Everything is new to us going forward.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? I would have to say Patch Adams, but Aladdin is one of my all time favorite Disney movies.
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 10w5d
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? I'm feeling pretty good. For the most part my symptoms are easing up. I still have the ocassional nausea, but not as much. I'm still super tired, but kind of used to it at this point.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: My next OB appt is 8/25 and NT scan is 8/26 so it's all quiet on the western front here.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? Do animated films count? Fern Gully!

My Ovulation Chart
Pregnancy Loss Background : Had a missed miscarriage in November. Found out at 10 weeks that baby stopped growing somewhere in the 9 week range.
EDD : March 11
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 9w6d / Olive
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically I am having some slight cramping and horrible pain if I roll over too quickly sometimes. Emotionally I am still very nervous about this pregnancy, we heard the heartbeat (well, heartbeats...surprise) on Friday but I won't feel good until I hear the heartbeats beyond week 10.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Since we got the wonderful (and scary) surprise of twins I get a lot more ultrasounds. August 29th (earliest they can get me in) we have an ultrasound scheduled to see if they are fraternal or identical.
GTKY -- So sad to hear about his passing. This is a hard question...right now I'm going to have to say Mrs. DoubtfireEDD (if this is your first time on the check in): March 24th. It got pushed back since I was measuring 5 days behind on my u/s last Friday.
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 8wks exactly, raspberry
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? I'm feeling better, but I was a mess after learning that I was measuring 5 days behind on Friday. I've never measured that far off in my other pregnancies. The OB said not to worry since heartbeat was good and everything else looked fine.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: I have a blood draw for the Harmony genetic test on the 29th, which seems like forever away. My NT scan is on 9/11.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? I loved him in Good Will Hunting, Mrs. Doubtfire, and even Dead Poet's Society. But, I am a kid at heart and loved him as Genie in Aladdin.
Gestation: olive, 9 weeks
How I'm feeling: Good, tired and sore. Not trying to stress as much, some days are better then others.
Upcoming appointments: Not till the end of this month. At about 12 weeks. Hopefully just a routine check up, with a strong heartbeat. And onward and upward into my second tri.
GTKY: I think my all time fave movie of Robin Williams is The Birdcage. Just absolutely hilarious. It all kinda breaks my heart.
_____________________________________________________________________________
EDD: March 12,2015
Gestation in weeks/fruit:10w 5d, a prune
How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? I'm feeling ok. Still some nausea hanging on, and exhaustion. Boobs are better, thank goodness! Emotionally better. I try not to stress between appointments, but it's hard. I hate PgAL brain...
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones:
Tomorrow I have a genetic appointment. They are just drawing blood. I'm doing all the tests, I'm AMA, ok, haggard troll, so my insurance covers them.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? Tough one...Aladdin, Mrs Doubtfire. So sad about his passing...

BFP #4 6-22-14 EDD 3-6-15 FX for our LO
How are you feeling physically? Awful Emotionally? Anxious and conflicted. Most people don't get it, even if they know my history. PgAL is stressful and dealing with people is stressful.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: got our panorama results back today. No genetic defects, so one hurdle down. We also found out we are having our 3rd boy.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film? What dreams may come, hook, alladin.
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 8.4 weeks- Raspberry
How are you feeling physically?
I'm ok. Breast tenderness and that's about it. Occasional nausea.
Emotionally? Had a scare yesterday and my PgAL brain didn't take it well AT ALL. My boobs weren't sore at all when I woke up yesterday. I wasn't bloated. I pooped normally. In my brain, it was over. I called the nurse and she had to talk me down. However today my boob soreness is back. So I'm ok today. But I'm going crazy waiting for my ultrasound.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: my ultrasound is Monday, finally. I can't wait. I am about ready for the looney bin waiting to see if there is a baby in there for real.
GTKY -- With the sad news of Robin Williams passing away yesterday, what is your favorite Robin Williams film?
It's a tie between Jumanji and Mrs. Doubtfire
Married December 2011 TTC#1 Since November 2013
Dec. 2013... BFP! 12/31/13... Natural M/C 1/29/14 (8 weeks)
July 2014...BFP!... 17dpo beta 581...19dpo beta 1419!!.. stick baby, stick!
EDD: 3/20/15.. It's a boy!
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 9w4d size of a green olive
How are you feeling physically: my symptoms seem to be subsiding. Just mild breast tenderness and fatigue with the occasional pinch of nausea.
Emotionally: Hanging in there. My PgAL brain got a lot better after I saw my baby and a strong heart beat at 8w2d but now it seem to be slowly leeching back since my symptoms are disappearing. Just trying to stay positive and trust that baby is doing great in there!
Upcoming Appts/milestones: I have an appt on Friday with my OB but I don't think we'll be doing another ultrasound (which makes me nervous). Everyday is a milestone for me because I have never been this far along before!
GTKY: My favorite Robin Williams movie is undoubtedly Hook. I've seen it at least 50 times
