1. How many weeks along are you? 14w4d
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? Nothing until the week of 2/23
3. How are you feeling lately?
Pretty good - other than being a little more stressed than usual between work and a kitchen remodeling project (hence my late posting of this thread - sorry!)
4. QOTW: What have you noticed is different about your pregnancy this time?In the last few weeks I have really noticed that my bump appeared earlier and bigger. At 14 weeks, I was measuring at 18 weeks. But I can also feel both the babies moving around already which is fun and makes this a lot more exciting this time for being so early in the pregnancy.

1. How many weeks along are you? 18w3d
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? We have our Anatomy Scan on Monday! We sway here and there but I think we finally decided to stay Team Green just like we did with DD.
3. How are you feeling lately? I was feeling better, then not so much yesterday and today. Puking again, even on diclegis. And super tired. Hopefully just a bad few days.
4. QOTW: What have you noticed is different about your pregnancy this time? I showed much earlier and felt movement much sooner this time around, too!
1. How many weeks along are you? 24 weeks, 4 days! Crazy!
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? Next appt. isn't until the 25th, then I will be scheduling the horrible gestational diabetes test after that
3. How are you feeling lately? I have had a nasty cold for 3 days, then I had to take my son to ER Tuesday night with double nasty ear infections. I am so ready for the sickness to leave our house
4. QOTW: What have you noticed is different about your pregnancy this time? It is going by way faster, and I definitely showed way earlier & felt the aches/pains way earlier. But it is nicer this time around because I know what to expect.Thanks @hoppin747
Glad to see some of us are still around!
Lots of BFN's & failed IUI's w/clomid and/or femara
Finally BFP with femara & t.i.- son born 6/17/2010
Started TTC again around when DS was 3ish
Lots of BFN's with femara & t.i & ovidrel
Tubes clear, S.A came back low motility but high count
About to switch to injectables w/femara, did one last cycle with just femara & an IUI with ovidrel- stupid motility was fantastic in the sample, but count was 700,000 AFTER wash! Had to sign a paper to even still do IUI- BFFP (big fat freaking positive) Go figure!
1st Beta 13dpiui 54, 2nd beta 48 hours later 115, 3rd beta 48 hours later 310, 4th beta 72 hours later 1748.
1. How many weeks along are you? 10 weeks, 2 days
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? NIPT blood draw today and NT u/s next Wed, results Feb 24 (hopefully)
3. How are you feeling lately? fairly good, weaning off the progesterone has given me more energy
4. QOTW: What have you noticed is different about your pregnancy this time? My anxiety level is higher. I was in blissful ignorance with my son - just "knew" everything would be perfectDS #1: April 2010
DS #2: July 2015 (preemie born at 31 weeks) - our little miracle conceived through ART - unexplained secondary infertility/adenomyosis
1- 37+3 days(just a day shy of what I had dd at!! AUGH!!!)
2- kidneys are even and while still dilated, not badly and he got 8/8 on his check yesterday! Breathing like a champ and trying to claw and kick himself out the whole time... AUGH!!!
3- was sent to hospital for high BP which subsided after resting go figure and all tests gtg except now in urine collection to check for protein. Having hourly holy wow moments that seriously sometime within next two weeks he will be here. Such a long road!
4- everything has been different about this pregnancy!!! He is more active, I'm not sick w preE like I was last time (two weeks body/ let's stay that way), more exhausted bc no forced bed rest, def got bigger faster... But thyroid under better control and no swelling from preE so I don't look as puffy or big lol, I'll take it!
Love all the updates!!!

We can't wait to meet you!
Conception:
1. How many weeks along are you? 11w2d
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? I have an ultrasound appointment next Wednesday, after which I will likely be pulled off of my progesterone and will hopefully hear that my SCH has gone away which will put my next ultrasound as my anatomy scan.
3. How are you feeling lately? Physically I'm fine. Emotionally, I oscillate between being okay and being Ms Pessimism.
4. QOTW: What have you noticed is different about your pregnancy this time? Physically, it's been similar to my pregnancy with my daughter (angel) with less sickness and less pains than with my son. Thanks to the progesterone I think, I'm looking chunky faster than I did with my daughter and more similar to how I looked with my son, probably becasue he too was a progesterone pregnancy. The monitoring this time around will be a significant change from previous pregnancies which is a change I'm very much looking forward to. And emotional-state wise, this pregnancy sucks the most so far.
