Hey ladies

sorry I've been lost the last couple weeks for check in my anxiety about making it to 19 weeks was in over drive. We lost our twin sons at 19 weeks

1. How far along are you? 19w4d

2. When is your next appointment? We have an ultrasound on Wednesday!

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? Ehh it has been hard for me knowing this is farther than I made it with my twins but also reassuring to be over that hump

4. What is your current pregnancy joy? Feeling this little man wiggle around

5. GTKY What is your favorite breakfast food? Blueberry pancakes! Just had them this morning!

Belle0720 · January 2015

1. How far along are you? 18 weeks 2 days

2. When is your next appointment? A/S next Monday!

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? Not bad at all.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy(other than being pregnant)? Getting Baby's nursery set up and really finishing house projects in prep for Baby's arrival. We have our crib and changing table now and I've almost cleared all of my clothes out of that room. We've also set up our guest bedroom which was previously just filled with boxes. I've gotten rid of so many clothes and purses to make space and I'm really proud of myself! And today H is taking our vintage iron cradle (bought at a swap meet almost 3 years ago for a steal!) to get sandblasted so we can repaint it. Wahoo!

5. GTKY: What's your favorite breakfast food? I love eggs benedict but with smoked salmon or crab instead of Canadian bacon. There's also these Johnsonville maple syrup sausages we buy sometimes that I love. Oh yeah and French toast...delicious! Btw, I forgot my breakfast (cereal) at home this morning which is really what inspired this question. I brought almonds and cuties for snack and just ate those instead, but man I'm still hungry!

1. How far along are you?
20w1d halfway there!!!

2. When is your next appointment?
Tomorrow morning...anatomy scan and seeing doctor.

3. How is PGAL brain treating you?
On the days I can feel her, it's great! I'm getting increasingly anxious about her anatomy scan tomorrow. I'm already very attached, so I'm just praying everything is great with her!

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy(other than being pregnant)?
She has a name, Nora Kate! We painted her room, my husband put her crib together, and my mom and I revamped a couple of old shabby chic/french provincial dressers.

5. GTKY: What's your favorite breakfast food?
Bagels and ALL the coffee.

Bonus: I'm gonna AW for a second, hope that's ok...but I'm attaching a collage pic of what all we've done. ...The quilt top is what my grandmother is making for her. I can't wait to see it all completed!

girlymama79 · January 2015

stinybean · January 2015

I'm still here! Thanks for continuing the thread @Belle0720‌

1. How far along are you? 19w3d
2. When is your next appointment? My A/S is 1/29. Coming soon.
3. How is PGAL brain treating you? I've really been okay since my last sono. I think it helps that I've been having the flutters a lot lately.
4. What's your current Pregnancy joy(other than being pregnant)? I already come to the realization that I'm utterly in-love with this butterfly inside me. I can't wait to meet him/her. And I love that DH keeps sneaking his hand onto my stomach and gently rubbing it. Now if only everyone else would stop touching me!
5. GTKY: What's your favorite breakfast food? Fried egg and extra cheese on a roll ← I miss you fried eggs.

nocompass · January 2015

@Karissa764‌ I'm glad you're over that hump. I know it probably doesn't ease your mind completely, but I hope it does provide some assurance. Take a few mins today to celebrate being almost halfway!

@CMSullivan326‌ don't you love those flutters?! Are you feeling them everyday? Nora will move great for a day then nothing for a few days. FTM and I never made it this far with my first pregnancy, but I think it's still early for me to feel daily kicks.

@Belle0720‌ glad your PGAL brain is good!! And you MUST post a pic of the iron cradle!! That will be so pretty.

stinybean · January 2015

@Karissa764‌ I'm sorry for the loss of your twins. This must be a hard time for you. ((HUGS))

@CMSullivan326‌ just saying hi!

@Belle0720‌ ohhh eggs Benedict! Yeah I want those too!

stinybean · January 2015

@abeatyrn‌ GL tomorrow!

Belle0720 · January 2015

@nocompass I love that dresser and baby girl's name is beautiful! Hope all goes well at your scan tomorrow!

@abeatyrn good luck with your a/s tomorrow!

MrsDee1982 · January 2015

Morning ladies!

I am 20w4d today. Less than 1/2 way to go!

I have a dr appt today at 4. Can't wait to hear the heartbeat again.

Pgal has been pretty mellow this week. I think a lot of my fears were quelled after my a/s. But I still have felt NO movement and I know I may not feel anything unt 25 weeks, but it's still making me nervous.

DH and I have narrowed it down to 2 names. Jennifer Jade or Charlotte Rochelle.

I am not a breakfast food fan. But I wod say the one thing I can always eat is hash browns. Yum!

Belle0720 · January 2015

@mrsdee1982 I'm not feeling movement yet either, and I am completely jealous of everyone who is! Also, I vote Charlotte Rochelle

angielayne926 · January 2015

1. How far along are you? 16w6d

2. When is your next appointment? 2/3 anatomy scan

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? Pretty good at the moment. The doppler is still proving to be a lifesaver when I need reassurance that all is well. I just need baby to start moving soon, too.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy(other than being pregnant)? Starting the nursery this weekend. Trying to pick wall color out right now.

5. GTKY: What's your favorite breakfast food? Mmmm....pancakes, bacon, OJ. Love it!

jbartsy · January 2015

1. How far along are you? 20w1d. Still can't believe it!

2. When is your next appointment? the 28th for my follow up u/s with MFM

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? I was ok until my appointment last week... now I keep worrying that something is wrong with my baby girl. But we bought a stroller/carseat this weekend and I just bought her a few clothes, so that's helping me push forward.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy(other than being pregnant)? not having to worry about sucking in my gut or being bloated when I'm wearing tight clothes! Yay baby bumps!

5. GTKY: What's your favorite breakfast food? I love it allll. My go-to is yogurt with fruit and cereal, but for special occasions, probably french toast.

taisree · January 2015

1. How far along are you? 17w3d

2. When is your next appointment? Feb 2 for A/S - so excited

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? This week has been tough. Thinking of my son a lot, jan 8 was the 1 year anniversary of the day we lost him. Tough but at the same time I'm extremely thankful!

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy(other than being pregnant)? I'm happy to see my belly growing & SO says once we know the sex we can start baby shopping, which I LOVE

5. Bagels!!

@karissa764 sorry to hear of such a painful milestone, but very glad for you to ha e passed it!

Eta: corrections and stuff my iPhone is messing this post up royally

happygardner85 · January 2015

1. How far along are you? 19w1d

2. When is your next appointment?feb 3 just the usual check up but always love hearing our little girls heartbeat

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? It's getting easier the further along I get but I know I will feel better when I constantly feel her moving around in there

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy(other than being pregnant)? Starting to shop for baby, starting our nursery and baby registry

5. GTKY: What's your favorite breakfast food? BLT please

threebelles · January 2015

1. How far along are you? 19 Weeks today (1/20)

2. When is your next appointment? 1/27 for a heartbeat scan. AS at 22 weeks (2/10 probably)

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? It's awesome when I feel my baby's movement. When I don't feel it, I go back to "that" place.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy(other than being pregnant)? Baby movement, the crib I ordered arriving and my daughter excited about my growing belly and breasts, so she can learn more about how she came to be.

5. GTKY: Poached eggs and/or scrambled eggs in between an English muffin.

frankengibbs · January 2015

1. How far along are you? 20 weeks and 2 days.

2. When is your next appointment? February 16th, but I have to call to schedule an A/S because I'm super behind on things because my first OB royally screwed up my first appointments so that will probably come first.

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? Feeling my baby girl kick and move around puts my mind at ease, but I'd be lying if I said I don't still get anxious. I just try to not let my brain go to the bad places...My nose burns every time I see a thread about someone going through a loss and as much as I would love to be supportive, my heart hurts too much to read them.

4. What's your current pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)? Having people share in my excitement, buying little sun dresses and of course feeling her kicks.

5. GTKY: Mexican food...specifically carne asada nachos with lots of beans and tacos. Oh! And fruit oatmeal...mmmmm

**edit: to specify, I eat very non specific meals, last night I had poptarts for a pre-dinner snack**

NoeliaV · January 2015

1. How far along are you?
20w3d
2. When is your next appointment?
Thursday!
3. How is PGAL brain treating you?
Better now that I can feel movement.

He/she has been kicking my bottom from the inside today.
4. What's your current Pregnancy joy(other than being pregnant)?
Fetal movement. I love it so. And swedish fish. All the artificial flavor-y and color-y goodness. lol.
5. GTKY: What's your favorite breakfast food?

Mmmm... all breakfast foods! Runny eggs with bacon and home fries. French toast. Pancakes. Huevos rancheros (done right, please). Eggs Benedict.
Just... send them all my way, please and thank you.

NoeliaV · January 2015

Oh! and good thoughts to all our A/S mamas today and this week! Sending lots of happy, healthy baby vibes everyone's way. >:D<

lovethatcolosun · January 2015

1. How far along are you? 18 weeks today!

2. When is your next appointment? We have our A/S on Feb 3. So excited to get to see our little girl again.

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? Mostly my worries have subsided, but I still am waiting for good results from the A/S to feel completely confident. I haven't even posted that I'm pregnant on Facebook yet. Close friends and family know, and those who I bump into randomly (because it's quite obvious now). I just feel more guarded with this pregnancy.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy(other than being pregnant)? Starting to feel her move around.

5. GTKY: What's your favorite breakfast food? It's a tie between bacon and eggs Benedict, which I'm totally craving right now, but can't have! Damn you runny eggs!

sgarmand · January 2015

I so badly needed this today. PGAL brain has been in overdrive this week since we have an U/S and check up this Friday.

1. How far along are you? 16w1d

2. When is your next appointment? This Friday, 1/23.

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? Not good right now at all. I have an overwhelming fear that something will be wrong when I go in on Friday. I haven't really "popped" yet with showing and I haven't felt movement since it's still early, so no reassurance there. Also, I've been having frequent cramping since this past weekend. I'm pretty much a mess.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy(other than being pregnant)? My MIL helped me finish painting the nursery this weekend and I really, really love it. I walk in and am instantly happy in that room.

5. GTKY: What's your favorite breakfast food? I love pancakes/waffles, but my weak spot is biscuits and sausage gravy. Mmmm.
