Congrats to everyone for making it here! This check-in is for graduates of the 2IF board (and any other secondary infertility grads). If you are new to the check-in, please let us know your due date and you will be added for next week. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
Thought I would post a check-in this week to keep up with everyone while Momarazzi007 works on her computer issues (Momarazzi007, thanks again for taking over and for trying to get your computer to work!).
SouthernMomma, can’t believe you are next up!! So excited for you – let us know how you are doing if you can! And then, Cerad5, it is your turn!! Wow, can you believe we have made it so far and next month we will have our LOs!! Freakyfast, congrats on team pink!! Do you have a name picked out? Momarazzi007, excited you are in the second trimester now!! How was your August 20th apt? Chrissynena, hope all is well with you and that your leg cramps at night are not too bad (I get them too and have found that if I point my toes upward right when I feel like I am getting one, it helps). Topaz7777, looking forward to seeing your update and hope you have been hanging in there with the first trimester! Mommalawyer – congrats to you also for making it to the second trimester!!

Re: **2IF Grad Check-In**
@jeffreysmom24, I seriously cannot believe our names are at the top of the list. It really does go by so fast!
1. 34 weeks today!
2. Appt next week, and then I go to weekly appts after that which is just crazy. At my last apt everything was looking great, belly measuring on time.
3. I feel fairly okay. A little heartburn. My feet are starting to swell just a bit some days. And of course I'm getting worn out more easily, but overall I feel SO much better than I did with DD's pregnancy at this point.
4. DD went back and forth between being Elsa or a doctor. I wasn't sure what to do with DD2 since she will only be 3 weeks old. We went to a consignment store to see if we could find a onesie type costume or something equally comfy. DD1 fell in love with a Supergirl costume and I was lucky enough to find an adorable supergirl onesie with skirt at Target. So I will have two little Supergirls. DH is a comic book nerd and has plenty of superhero shirts to wear. And with me being 4 weeks postpartum, I think I'll just go as sleepy mom
1. How many weeks along are you? 25w4d
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? Just had an OB appt today. She sent out the order to get my c section scheduled. Babies are doing good. Ultrasound Sept 15.
3. How are you feeling lately? Um well some days better than others. Def getting much more tired and winded. Work is getting much busier so that doesn't help.
4. QOTW: what are your Halloween plans? Does DS/DD have a costume yet and will you or DH dress up too? Just am starting to think about what I want to dress DD up as. No this year we will not dress up. I did see a cute idea for years to come on Pinterest the other day. Three blind mice. It was so cute.
2. Next dr appt is next Thursday. Everything looked fine at the last appt - dr said I was measuring on track!
3. Feeling fine overall but having more trouble sleeping. My sisters are hosting a surprise shower for me tomorrow (I accidentally found out)! Very excited about it! It will be a couples shower and kids are invited too so it should be fun! I even bought a new dress to wear!
4. Jeffrey is going to be the Incredible Hulk for Halloween. I doubt DH will dress up and I think I will be the same as Cerad5 -- a sleepy mom with a newborn! DH will take Jeffrey trick or treating but I am hoping I can also take him to a couple of houses nearby. Our neighborhood always gets tons of kids whose parents drive them in so it will be busy!
1. How many weeks along are you? 24w6d
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? Just had an appointment yesterday. Was just a routine check up. Next visit is the GD testing, AND THEN after that I go every two weeks! Say what?!?!
3. How are you feeling lately? I think I might be getting sick. Woke up this morning with a sore throat and a runny nose. Also just tired, she starts moving around 3:15am and I can't get back to sleep. But really a part of me doesn't mind.
4. QOTW: what are your Halloween plans? Does DS/DD have a costume yet and will you or DH dress up too? No plans yet. I have no idea, he is off being an adult. I dont know what his plans are. We might dress up if we make plans.
Jeffreysmom24 - no name yet. No stinkin idea!
29weeks almost 30!
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)?
I am in the middle of a 24 hour urine because of the constant headaches, nausea, heart racing. Could be just twin pregnancy but we are being on the safe side.
3. How are you feeling lately?
Useless, I can't really do anything without being out of breath, hurting or having contractions. I could power through it but I know that's not good for the babies.
4. QOTW: what are your Halloween plans? Does DS/DD have a costume yet and will you or DH dress up too?
Well DD is going to be a princess (she saw it at Cracker Barrel and is in love with herself in it) We also bought little Minnie Mouse outfits for the babies that won't look weird if they don't come by Halloween
1- 15 weeks today- is that right????
2- Aug 20 appointment went great and blood work came back we are at lowest risk groups for those tested. Baby looks amazing and has a little personality already
3- morning sickness sucks. It is starting to finally really get better and not me just trying to will it away!
4- Halloween- Pirates! Last year we were all Superman/woman/girl. Until dd is irritated we are doing family costumes. We have a few different Halloween costume things to attend so we might resuse the Superfamily ones to save money. Hubs will be happier to wear superman one- suit w tsh itt underneath- but we are modifying Ren Faire stuff to be Piratey.
