ksgsmu · September 2014

How far along are you? 18 weeks today!

How are you feeling? I think my morning sickness if finally gone. Still not hungry and can't eat a ton without feeling beyond stuffed and heartburn but atleast I am not nauseated! The sciatica isn't fun so that makes walking or standing for any length of time impossible.

Any dr. Appointments or updates? I see my MFM and OB in two weeks- can't wait!

Qotw: What did you do over the long weekend? We had tons of family in from out of town and had a BBQ and announced that we were having two boys. It was fun but I was so exhausted and just ready for everyone to leave. I rested the remainder of the weekend.

How far along are you? 15w5d
How are you feeling? Sick

Otherwise, headaches and some back pain.
Any dr. Appointments or updates? I'm in my longest wait between appts, I see my OB next Tues.

Qotw: What did you do over the long weekend? I sat on the couch being sick. I'm no fun.

AandStilltrying · September 2014

16w+3d currently. Pretty sure S felt some movement! We have regular OB visit on Thursday. We are wondering if when they do our growth scan if they will tell us the sex of the babies?!?! We have our anatomy scan next Monday if not. I'm so excited to see them and know they are ok and continuing to grow. Hoping for a clean bill of health.

Qotw: Saturday: Hair appointment, pedicure, evening out with friends, wvu game watched on tv.

Sunday: shopping with my sister

Monday: worked on stuff for school and out to dinner with my sisters family and S.

29w today!

How are you feeling?
pretty good. We went to a fair this weekend, and it took a lot out of me- but I'm glad we made it to at least one this year!

Any dr. Appointments or updates?
failed my 1hr glucose, so I get to experience the 3 hr tomorrow- yeahh! Then an OB appointment on Thursday.

Qotw: What did you do over the long weekend?
We went to a fair

I also spent a good amount of time getting ready for babies- laundry, putting things away, etc.

Most exciting was getting to see a friend of mine. We got to be quite close while TTC once we realized we were in the same boat. We even made our first appointments with the RE at the same place-and they ended up being in the same day.

I've not pushed to see or really talk to her since we found out we were pregnant. I have checked in and let her know I was thinking of her- but didn't want to force it on her, and she hadn't seemed interested in more than that. But she came over on Sunday, and told us they are pregnant! Then she showed me the u/s and I was SO excited- TWINS!

I'm so happy for them. They are still overwhelmed by the idea, but I'm thrilled we can still be our own little support system

MissEm15 · September 2014

How far along are you? 17w today!!
How are you feeling? Great! Headaches are really my only symptom right now.. don't get me wrong, they suck but better than the nausea.
Any dr. Appointments or updates? Had my first apt w/ my new OB.. we're team BLUE!!! I do have to go for weekly cervical length checks tho (not looking forward). My a/s will be at 20w.

Qotw: What did you do over the long weekend? Hung out w/family and friends, shopped & picked paint colors out for the nursery

@AandStilltrying Good Luck! They told me at 16w2d! (although one twin she is 80% sure on, but I think she's right).

1blueridgemama · September 2014

How far along are you? 32 weeks+6, though we can't go past 38 weeks so max of 36 days left. Whoa.
How are you feeling? Done. lol
Any dr. Appointments or updates? We have twice a week MFM appts now with non-stress tests at both appts and US/biophysical profile at one a week. Office is 2 hours away. We have become one with the road. Updates: babies are doing great, estimated to be 4.5 lbs (boy) and 4 lbs (girl) but we will see for sure at next growth scan Friday. So grateful they're still in and doing great. I'm trying to stay positive- so exhausted, swollen and I came down with a bad head cold last night. But, we are getting SO close and so excited to meet the babies.

Qotw: What did you do over the long weekend? I'm on strict bedrest now so not much. I only leave the house for the appts twice a week. Did tag along two days ago when the rest of the family went out for ice cream. I stayed in the car but it still wore me out

How are you feeling? Like a stuffed turkey! Gaw!!
Any dr. Appointments or updates? We have a growth u/s tomorrow. I haven't seen the boys in 3 weeks so I am excited for an update. Hoping A is still holding his own weight wise.

Qotw: What did you do over the long weekend? I "should" have packed my hospital bag, pulled the PNP and swings out of the attic and finished up their room. But I laid around a lot and took my DS to the pool a bunch. My b-day was yesterday so that was fun and relaxing. Really, not a damn thing productive

kefttsc · September 2014

How far along are you? 17w3d
How are you feeling? Pretty good actually. I get tired so easily and I'm finding it hard to eat enough good foods (and fewer crap foods), but other than that, I'm good.
Any dr. Appointments or updates? Our next appointment is on September 15 - only 13 days, but who's counting

We were very excited a few weeks ago to be declared TEAM PURPLE! One of each!
Qotw: What did you do over the long weekend? A little bit of nothing. I went to the opening day of a huge consignment sale, but was underwhelmed by it. I got some more maternity clothes and a few outfits for the babies, but that was it. Boring!!!

studentnurse2011 · September 2014

*waves hi* I am new to your board! I just found out Friday that I'm pregnant with twins!!

How far along are you? 9 weeks today!

How are you feeling? Nauseous and exhausted! Though I did get some zofran, and that is helping the nausea a lot!

Any doctor appointments or updates? My next appointment is 9/29, so I've got awhile! We saw two beautiful heart beats at Friday's appointment, which was special!

What did you do over the long weekend? Went to a cookout for my husbands work friends the. Had a fish fry withy friends Sunday! I worked some Sunday and all day yesterday, so not really a long weekend.

sherrybrown83 · September 2014

36 weeks 3 days today. I'm feeling extremely uncomfortable and exhausted. I had my last ultrasound today and both babies have finally flipped head down. Their *estimated weights are 5.7 and 6.1. Less than two weeks left until my c section.

jfoster516 · September 2014

How far long are you? 31w 5d

How are you feeling? Huge!!! And very uncomfortable.

Updates? We have a grow scan on Friday and start appointments 2x. They aren't doing NST just BPP because of where A is positioned.

What did you do this weekend? Friday we ended up at the hospital with contractions. Dr said they were just braxton hicks and all 3 babies looked good, but I am 1cm dilated and my cervix is shortening. Then Saturday I started losing my mucus plug. So other than laying around my DH and I went to dinner on Saturday and that was it.

Rxmom04 · September 2014

33w 5d here. Feeling sore and tired, ready to be done anytime now. Had an OB appt today and discussed our delivery options since B apparently has no interest in being a head down baby. I'm seen at a fairly large practice and the OBs seem to be split on how to deliver twins (only a couple will turn B or do breech birth) so if we wait for labor to start no telling who will be on duty and which way they'll go putting me at risk of the dreaded double whammy. I decided with my OB's support to skip the maybes and just schedule a c-section so that's my first call tomorrow. Glad to have a real end date in sight instead of a vague date range.

QOTW- Family had a small baby shower for us since we didn't have one for DS. Close family only so it was pretty relaxed and not too much for a tired pregnant lady. Didn't do too much else but a little baby shopping with my mom to fill in the gaps of our baby supplies. This week may be another story now that we're really counting down, seems like there's a ton that needs to be done now.

runner089 · September 2014

How far along are you? 30 weeks
How are you feeling? Getting really uncomfortable and really tired. I have had random stomach pains the past 2 days, but they don't seem to be contractions. I think it's just my wonderful digestive system.
Any dr. Appointments or updates? I have another check up tomorrow

Qotw: What did you do over the long weekend? I went to two family barbecues. I didn't really feel well this weekend so I took it easy.

jfoster516 · September 2014

@ginabina11‌ I feel the same way. It is horrible and feel like it will never end but you are doing a great job keeping those babies in the cooking!!

MsMolly520 · September 2014

How far along are you? 27+6

How are you feeling? Tired due to lack of sleep (multiple bathroom trips and breathing has become a little challenging). I'm getting exhausted more easily, as well. I am grateful that I have *some* energy to continue nesting in preparation for their arrival!

Any doctor appointments or updates? I have both OB and MFM appointments scheduled for next week. I can't wait to see my little guys again!

What did you do over the long weekend? It was pretty relaxing. Just hung out with family.

BabyKsMommy · September 2014

27 weeks today, 3rd tri here I come! Babies are super active which is reassuring. I'm having some instances where my heart starts beating very quickly but I'm not doing anything strenuous. So I'm going in for some tests tomorrow.

QOTW: I had to work over the weekend so it wasn't too exciting for us.

jfoster516 · September 2014

My Dr doesn't do steroids unless there are signs of preterm labor. But we scheduled are c section for Oct 2 last week. Our Dr also said 32-34 weeks is generally when they come, so we will see.

Siona1976 · September 2014

How far along are you? 30 weeks

How are you feeling? Feeling tired b/c of I can't get comfortable, all the bathroom trips & general insomnia.

Any dr. Appointments or updates? Dr appt went well on Tuesday. Officially passed the GTT and the growth scan report from week 28 came back good. He used the u/s to see them so it was good to see them again - looks like they changed position from my last appt. Starting on the 16th I will go in every week.

QOTW: We put together the nursery. . .finally! There were a few moments where we didn't know if 2 cribs, 1 dresser and a chair was all going to fit but we got it! Had a small BBQ with some friends on Monday. A fairly laid back long weekend.

Margritli · September 2014

I have been lurking here for awhile figure it is time to jump in. How far along are you? 13 weeks How are you feeling? Still throwing up daily, but down to usually just one spectacular time a day, so that is a huge improvement. Other than that, I am still pretty tired and hoping to get a kick of energy soon. Any dr. Appointments or updates? NT scan is on Wed. Pretty nervous - any good thoughts are welcome. I will be so relieved if everything comes back okay then. QOTW: I am not in the U.S., so no long weekend for us! I spent the weekend doing stuff for school and sleeping...which is pretty much the same that I have going on this weekend. Loads of fun.

morrkim · September 2014
