PgAL Check-In

jap618 · August 2014

Good Morning Ladies!! I hope everyone had a great week!!

This is a weekly check-in on Tuesdays for March moms who have experienced a pregnancy loss prior to this one. I'm sorry if you have to be here but feel free to jump right in & post an intro.

-----Special ((((Hugs))))) to the ladies that have lost their little one this past week-----

My heart has broken over and over in the past couple of weeks as some of our beloved members have suffered from their losses. I know this is incredibly hard on all of us here and especially them as we care for them and were wishing them the best. This week the (((hugs))) go out to all of us

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone.

starsailorr26 · August 2014

@jap618 Thanks for continuing to take care of the check in.

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 13 weeks 1 day

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically it varies. I was feeling better and then suddenly the nausea and m/s returned in full force. I am hoping for some relief soon. Emotionally I am starting to get really excited about things and the possibility that this will be our second baby.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: NT scan went well last week. Next appointment is a regular OB appointment on 9/8.

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: I'll share this because it makes me happy. I bought DD a big sister book on amazon and it should arrive tomorrow. I'm really excited to read it to her because she somewhat understands the concept of a baby sibling and seems excited.

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? We have told some close friends and immediate families. I will probably send a text to the rest of our family and friends with DD reading her big sister book. We won't do a FB announcement until after the a/s, assuming all goes well. Most everyone will know by then but it will be a way to tell everyone who doesn't already know.

Amber&Reva · August 2014

Thank you @jap618 for keeping this check-in going it is really the only time I post in March 2015.

Gestation in weeks/fruit: I am 13w3 days.

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Seeing so many fellow March moms suffer losses these past couple weeks have been tough emotionally. It doesn't help that I am so emotional right now either. I also have been having PGAL brain because I once again have BV which could have played a role in my last loss and have been put on thyroid meds because my thyroid is elevated and my OB said if untreated it can increase my chances of miscarriage.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Tomorrow is my N/T scan. I am excited to see the little one and hear that everything is okay.

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: Can I bitch that someone asked me yesterday if I was pregnant which I personally think is a really rude question to ask anyone unless they are OBVIOUSLY pregnant.

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone. I still need to announce to close friends and family. I know I need to announce soon but I am nervous because I don't want to go through having another loss and needed to explain what happened. I probably won't announce to most people until closer to 24w if I can keep it hidden that long.

LesliW · August 2014

Gestation in weeks/fruit:
12w 5 days-plum
How are you feeling physically? Feeling better. All symptoms seems to be lessening. I did have brown spotting this afternoon when I wiped. I know it can be normal, but still had a freak out.
Emotionally? I was ok. Genetics tests came back normal, we found out we are team Pink! But aforementioned spotting has me worried as hell! I just want a break and enjoy this pregnancy.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones:not until 9/8

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement:
Having a baby girl!! So excited for this. It's the first baby for me and my husband. I have one of each from previous marriage and they are both amazing! I am ready for bows, and pigtails and tutus again!

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone.
I'm waiting to widespread announce until after my 9/8 appointment. Of all goes well we will announce on fb...

vargasgurl · August 2014

Pregnancy Loss Background (if this is your first time on the check-in):
I suffered a loss in Nov12 it was my first pregnancy and because my hormones levels were rising although OB was certain I was MC he felt I needed a D&C and they did a biopsy to make sure it wasn't a molar pregnancy. I had the procedure the day after Thanksgiving and I was so afraid I wouldn't be able to conceive. Truly one of the saddest days for us. Thankfully test came ok and by Jan13 I was expecting big surprise to us! My daughter who was born O13 ... I felt like I was given a 2nd chance.

EDD (if this is your first time on the check in):

This is my first time ... I can't believe how many losses have taken place

it make me sad and brings back memories.

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 11wks Lime

How are you feeling physically?
I am so tired and more nauseous this time around. Maybe it's because I have a 10month old , maybe because I am home or maybe it's because I have dbl the hormones to deal w since we are having twins.
Emotionally? Initially I had a little anxiety about caring for 3under2 , thinking about my career and how that will deft be put on hold. I have also been irritable. I am trying just to take deep breaths and to enjoy this moment but having suffered a loss prior to DD I always worry that it could happen again and twins are considered high risk ( I worry often )

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: I believe my apt is next week so we will be discussing NT scan and harmony test. Looking forward to confirming that Twins are ID .. I had my US last week and the tech said that she thought they were.

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement:
I am getting used to the idea of twins but I see no sleep in my future!

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? I will FB announce closer to 4 months
Have you already announced?
My family and close friends have all been told no major announcement just a call ... Everyone is shocked and excited !

I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone.

litt1er4 · August 2014

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 13wk2d

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Still some nausea and tiredness but overall better, emotionally really good, u/s at NT scan went well, I am past my lost milestone! It's finally feeling real!

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: OB appt this Thursday

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: A friend this past weekend asked to host a shower for me, I was completely speechless, I need to pull together a guest list which I haven't done since I was planning my wedding but Yay for making plans for baby!

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone. I am in 2nd Tri!!! Most close friends and family know at this point, my boss & some coworkers know, I not sure when I will announce on FB but soon!

chajak · August 2014

Hi everyone! I am not as far as everyone else I am only 9 weeks and I can't wait to get out of the first trimester!! I have my first ultrasound tomorrow afternoon and I thought I was ok but the closer it gets the more nervous I am becoming. I just really want to see a heart beat this time. I had a mc on valentines day....

@jap618 Thank you for the check-in!

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 12 weeks today/plum

How are you feeling physically? I've started getting headaches the past few days. Not terrible headaches but certainly annoying. Emotionally? I've felt really stabby lately, maybe because my head hurts. I also feel like I'm constantly on the edge of tears.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: OB appointment 2ma! Hopefully it will reassure my PgAL brain again. I feel like the closer I get to an appointment, the more my brain starts tripping out about another loss.

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: I started back to school this week and I already feel like my semester is too overwhelming. It's only my 2nd day back.

GTKY -- How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? We have told close family and friends. We plan to widen the announcement pool to people in our day-to-day lives (bosses, advisors, co-workers) after our appointment tomorrow, assuming all goes well. We'll likely do a FB post in the next week or two.

shellgirl252 · August 2014

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 9 weeks 4 days/ olive

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally?: I've been feeling fairly good. Only having slight nausea, breast tenderness, but I have been feeling extremely tired. Usually napping mid day on my days off or in the evenings after work.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: I've missed a couple check ins. So to update last Tuesday at 8w3d had a second u/s due to cramps and spotting and baby is doing good with heartbeat of 168bpm!! Have appt with OB on Sept 11.

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: Just so excited to be this far after 3 losses. But I'm still guarded. Wish I could shake that feeling and just embrace it more.

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? -- So far only family and a few friends know. I plan on telling more people once out of first trimester.

Thanks for the check in.

nannabee21 · August 2014

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 10w4d.. Prune

How are you feeling physically? I feel ok. Mild nausea every now and then. Slightly sore boobs. RLP when I sneeze or stand up too quick.

Emotionally? I feel better every day. I feel like this may actually end in a baby and I am so excited. Still kinda cautious, and I check for a heartbeat with my doppler about 4 times a day. That think keeps me sane.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: another appointment around 13 weeks, but no us then. I'm ready for 2nd tri!

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: Nothing baby related.. My best friend is in love with a controlling guy. She's lost her family because of it and I feel us drifting apart. I don't know why she can't see it.

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone.

We've told family and friends and I've told my coworkers. We will announce on fb after 1st tri with a picture of us by two big pumpkins and a little pumpkin that says March 2015

cesquer · August 2014

Sorry I am late to the check-in. Had to work like 9 pm last night, came home and fell asleep before my laptop booted up.

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally?: I am starting to feel a little better. I am 12w 3d, and nausea still there but not as severe. Emotionally I am really tired. Wish my job wasn't as stressful as it is. I am struggling with getting out of bed in the mornings and going. Have to remind myself we need the paycheck.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Had first tri screening Monday and so far all looks great! waiting for blood results on Monday. Next appointment is in 4 weeks. This is the longest I've ever gone without seeing a ob or high-risk doc. I think this is a good sign. They're not watching me as closely as they did with my angel twin babies.

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: This is really weird, but I have nothing to bitch about right now. very weird, indeed....

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I already did. Told all family at a family reunion that was planned for about a year. It was a week earlier that i was hoping, but it seemed like the right opportunity. We also posted a little stop-motion video of us opening up a fortune cookie with the news on Instagram. It was really cute. After losing my babies at 21 weeks I realized that you have to celebrate the good news when it comes. Because you never know what's going to happen. So I try to put my fear about what if it doesn't work out away. Everyone we knew found out about our loss when it happened. It wasn't something I could keep quiet or hidden, and in many ways it was healing to have support. So many women came out and shared their own experiences with us. There is so much taboo around loss. I am pulling for all of us and excited we are almost at the second tri!!!!

akleng · August 2014

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 13w4d/peach!

How are you feeling physically? Physically, I'm feeling much better. Pretty much just tired and some RLP. Emotionally? Also doing much better. I had my NT scan last Thursday and LO looked prefect. Still waiting for the blood test results, but the good u/a has me feeling good. My OB is also very lovely about easing my PGAL brain and being understanding about my fears.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Next appointment isn't until Sept. 15 which will be check-up and spina bifida blood test. Passed my loss milestones, however, my first due date is coming up in a couple weeks.

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: Just really excited about the good scan last week. H is finally letting himself get excited and can't stop looking at the u/s photo, which makes my heart melt.

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone.

We've told close friends and family already, and I plan to tell my (new) boss next week. I wasn't going to do a Facebook announcement, but I'm now planning on outing myself about my loss on Oct 15 so I'll probably mention our little rainbow in that post.

cassy0407 · August 2014

Pregnancy Loss Background (if this is your first time on the check-in): I lost my son at 22 weeks in April of 2013. I also had an early miscarriage in April of this year (exactly 1 year after I gave birth to my son... DEVASTATING!)

EDD (if this is your first time on the check in): 3/12/15

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 11 weeks 6 days/Lime

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? I have been suffering from extreme nausea and vomiting (lost 10 pounds so far). Emotionally, I am a paranoid wreck! PGAL brain definitely gets the best of me most days.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: I have my NT scan today at 1:00pm EST. I am so nervous. I am praying that my LO is healthy! Pray for us!

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: I am scared to be excited about this pregnancy. Even though I feel that "this is the one", I can't help but worry constantly. It sucks being afraid to use the bathroom for fear of seeing blood when I wipe; I hate living each day worried and afraid. I just want to be confident in knowing that this is my rainbow/take home baby.

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone. I have not announced yet and I haven't really thought about when or how I will. Is it crazy of me to want to wait until v-day? I guess I'm just trying to protect myself..

hweise85 · August 2014

Gestation in weeks/fruit:12 weeks/Plum

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? I'm feeling ok, emotionally, I've been more sensitive lately and frustrated. Physically, my symptoms have slowly come back, some of them, but not every day. I feel like everything is starting to push up now, won't be long till I can't wear most of my clothes.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Tomorrow is our 12 week NT Scan and Appt! Tomorrow will be big, I've never reached this far. I'm just excited to get out of the 1st trimester and start actually enjoying the fact that I'm pregnant, and not constantly worry nearly as much.

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: Ugh, my husband and I had a fight last night. He got me soo frustrated! And slow drivers! Seems as if my patience is wearing thin lately.

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone. We told our parents and siblings after our 8 week ultrasound, a couple of really close friends have known we were pregnant from the get go. As soon as our appt is over tomorrow I'm announcing on Facebook, we have a big family party with extended family over the weekend for the labor day holiday, so it will be a fun time

mandi195 · August 2014

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 11w4d / lime

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically better-ish, no nausea but still exhausted. Emotionally great, fear is gone (at least for today)

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Had appt today, saw LO dancing around and measuring 3 days ahead!

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: I'm convinced my DH is on a mission to drive me crazy. Honestly, the way he is behaving lately (see useless) I'm amazed he survived into adulthood

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? We told our parents and siblings right away. We told our kids today. Announcing to the world next week.

chucktgirl · August 2014

I am so jealous of all you ladies who have already got your Mat21/Panarama/etc results back! How exciting!

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 11w0d

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically, a little icky, but okay. Emotionally? Right now I want to freak the fuck out on someone. (preferably one of the horrible medical people I've been having to deal with!)

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: My next appt is unknown because I can't find a single OB willing to take me on as a patient. I am now more than three weeks with no u/s or b/w, and no appts in sight.

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: As you can guess, my bitch is that I am disgusted by all the OBs in my area. I am disgusted by the red tape bullshit required to transfer to the ONLY MFM in town. I am disgusted at the insurance company for being a constant hindrance instead of being helpful. I am disgusted at myself for being a fucking infertile and creating all of these problems instead of being a normal, carefree pregnant lady.

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone. We have told absolutely no one. Our plan is to tell parents/siblings only after we receive the results from the Mat21 test, and then only if they are normal. Obviously we still have not been able to schedule that yet. If everything goes well, maybe tell parents around 14 weeks, close friends around 22. The rest of the world will have to figure it out for themselves.

csuperstar02 · August 2014

We're back to school with the kids this week. I woke up yesterday morning at 3:05 am and was wide awake. I watched House of Wax (with Paris Hilton) :-O until 5! So I passed out last night and missed the check-in.

Gestation in weeks/fruit:

9w3d

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally?

Physically - just tired and short of breath; forgetful as all get out Emotionally - up and down, but mostly up and convincing myself I'm up even if I'm not!

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: I had my appointment with my RE today and everything looked good. Mr/s Upfront measuring 9.3 and looking like a dancing gummy bear and the Hider measuring 9.4. Heartbeats were 160s and 170s I believe.

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement:

I'm trying to find an OB and this one nurse basically was like "um, we can't help you with all that you've got going on," haha. (She was helpful and told me the high risk specialist they use a lot.) And then my doctor gave me the same name, so I'm going to give him a call tomorrow.

GTKY -- I'm an end of March-er so I have still have a few weeks until 2nd tri, wah-wah. But close family and friends of mine know; I've started to share with coworkers. I don't expect that we'll ever make an official FB announcement though. We'll see.

JCWhitey · August 2014

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 11 weeks tomorrow, lime.

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Feeling pretty good all around. Still a lot of nausea but it's gotten a lot better, I actually go days where I don't throw up now. Emotionally doing really well considering my life just got insane this week (read the excitement part).

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: I didn't originally have an appointment until Sept. 12th, but due to some changes I have a new doctor and they wanted me in this week, so my first appointment will be Sept. 4th!

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: OK, here is my huge news- DH and I moved to MN from CA for jobs, which were full time through the summer but we both knew we were getting cut come fall. Well last Friday my husband got a call from one of the branch directors that they had some full time openings they thought WE (yes, BOTH of us!) would be great for! We drove the 120 miles there on Saturday, interviewed, and started planning to move. We know at least one of us definitely has the job and the other can get part time work, if we didn't both get the FT jobs, which we probably did. We move on Saturday. So in a week we've had to completely pack up and prepare to move while also preparing to start new jobs. It's been insane but sooooo exciting! I'm still kind of in shock.

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? We've already shared the news.

chajak · August 2014

Finally went to my first ultrasound and got great news!! Little heart rate of 160 and moving around like crazy!!

jap618 · August 2014

I just realized I never updated on myself! Fail.

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 13w6d

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically I'm good. Emotionally I'm good too. This is bizarre.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: I have my genetic counseling/maternity 21 testing on Tuesday (finally) and then my 2nd OB appointment on Wednesday. I'm so excited/nervous for the OB appointment because it's with a new doctor in the practice (well to me) and I'm nervous about seeing a doctor that doesn't know my history (and in turn on taking my future concerns seriously). The practice I'm with rotates doctors throughout your appointments, which I'm ok with, I'm just partial to the 2 that I know. Oh and I went in last Monday for a heart rate check and it was 145 bpm

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement: My oldest cat Bobby (4 years old) is really sick. He's spending the night at the emergency animal clinic tonight and they are diagnosing him Triaditis. We're looking at some large vet bills and I'm so nervous for him. He's my baby and I hate that he's in pain. And if he has long term medications we'll have two cats on oral medications daily and will likely need to switch all 3 cats to expensive diets. This is just a lot to take in tonight and DH is out of town. Any T&P you have for my Bob are appreciated

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone. We've told my parents and our IL's and most close friends and family. We're letting the word spread naturally right now and will announce on facebook after I am completely out at work (probably Tuesday). I don't know how we'll do it though. Something straight off pinterest though :-D

PAkathy · August 2014

Pregnancy Loss Background (if this is your first time on the check-in):
I had a miscarriage (first pregnancy) on 3/5/14 at 7 weeks. It was difficult because we were so excited and happy but at the same time I had spotting and extreme pressure in my lower abd making it difficult to sleep. So it was a relief when I was all over.

EDD (if this is your first time on the check in):
3/12/15
Gestation in weeks/fruit: 12w2d/plum

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally?
Physically, I'm alright. Nausea that comes and goes. Emotionally, I've been so needy and crying a lot. SO have been fighting

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones:
NT and 1st trimester screeninh came back all good. The tech said the numbers were all good and sounded so happy and excited for us.

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement:
When will all the hormones calm down? All the crying and neediness is wiping me out!

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone.
We announced to my parents over dinner and then my mom slowly spread the news by word of mouth.

LesliW · August 2014

@jap618‌ thinking good thoughts about your kitty. ((Hugs))

kaylaalexxander · August 2014

Hi everyone! Have been on here awhile mostly lurking but would like to do a PgAL check in!

Pregnancy Loss Background (if this is your first time on the check-in):

I had a tubal ectopic in November 2012 at 8 weeks. Emergency surgery worst pain in my life! Left tube gone right tube damaged. Had another laparoscopy on my right tube to open it up. Didn't work. First round of IVF four eggs fertilized put two in, froze two and one stuck!

EDD (if this is your first time on the check in):

03/06/2015

Gestation in weeks/fruit:

13 weeks! Baby is the size of a peach!!

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally?

I've felt fine so far nothing to complain about here, yet!

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones:

Have an u/s appointment on the 11th!

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement:

My husband just surprised me with tickets to Sam Smith in November in London!!! (btw I live in the middle east so much closer to London than America) but still exciting! I love London!

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone.

Have told close family and friends. We are planning to annouce in maybe a few weeks but it's kind of nice just keeping it a secret!

xMina4x · September 2014

Pregnancy Loss Background:

I went into preterm labor in November of 2011 6 months into my pregnancy. I remember that it was the day after Thanksgiving that I was rushed into the hospital where I spent the worst night of my life, I just knew that it wasn't going to end well. My son was born the next morning, he was a live birth but only lived for 3 hours before passing on. Doctor believes that the reason for preterm labor is that my uterus is lower than it is supposed to be, it literally rests on my cervix, which let go due to weakness.

EDD: March 23, 2015

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 11 weeks, 1 day/Lime

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: I have an ultrasound on the 9th to check on the bleeding, then I have the Nuchal Screening on the 19th and a doctor's appointment on the 22nd....I think I might start bringing my doctor's office cookies b/c I end up seeing them so much and it's still early in the pregnancy..

How are you feeling physically? I am currently on bed rest due to a bad gestational bleed, doctor admitted to me that he was worried. Am having horrible period-like cramps & sex is actually painful so doctor told me it's not allowed anymore. Luckily enough (I think) I haven't had any visible bleeding. Emotionally? I'm terrified, there's no other way to put it. Also feeling guilty that I can't seem to get myself excited about this pregnancy like my fiance is. He's just so optimistic that my heart breaks at it. I find myself bawling my eyes out once I know he's asleep at night, or while I'm home alone on bed rest.

GTKY -- We're heading into the 2nd tri soon. How is everyone announcing the news? Have you already announced? I know there have been larger threads but it can be hard to keep track of everyone. Literally the only people who know are our parents, his boss incase he has to run out of work & my best friend. I really don't have any interest in telling people before I'm 6 months pregnant but I know that's probably impossible.

bnewton13 · September 2014

Pregnancy Loss Background: we found out we were pregnant early April and lost our sweet Logan in May the day we turned gestation to 11 weeks. Got the ok from the doctor late June and just found out last month we were expecting again!

EDD: March 22, 2015

Gestation in weeks/fruit: 11 weeks 2days/Lime

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally?
Physically: I am super tired all the time, nausea/gassy which my DH hates.
Emotionally: it's been a huge struggle. I just keep telling myself 1 day at a time. But I've had horrible dreams of losing this one.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: initial on with the nurse practitioner on 9/9

*New* Vent/bitch/complain/excitement:
My DH is excited about this one and I am too, however I am worried sick that we aren't going to make it to the end of this term for baby. Also, my DH wants to be gentle with me but his NEEDS and my needs are getting in our way, it hurts after just a few minutes to the point I am bawling for being a bad wife. He says he would rather take care of me and he can wait.

GTKY -- We have only told our families, a few family friends and my work in case of medical attention but have decided that if our next appointment goes well that we will finally announce it! I can't wait to stop keeping it a secret!!
