1. How many weeks along are you?
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)?
3. How are you feeling lately?
4. QOTW: First, are you interested in me continuing with this check-in? It appears some people are no longer active on The Bump, and the recent 2IF grads have declined to join the check-in (at least so far!). Second, what projects are you working on for baby right now?

QOTW: I purchased some wood cut outs for the aquatic theme I am going with for the twins' room. Now I just have to get painting! It's been a little tough since work has been pretty demanding even though I'm just working from home.

Sorry, I am on the Birth Month Board(s) more. I go between August and September. I'll try to check in more frequently.
We are working on renovations to the basement, including a playroom for DS, which isn't directly for baby but it will aid in my sanity of juggling two kids!
DS #1: April 2010
DS #2: July 2015 (preemie born at 31 weeks) - our little miracle conceived through ART - unexplained secondary infertility/adenomyosis
1. How many weeks along are you?
38 weeks, 2 days!
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? CSection scheduled for Tuesday (19th)!!
3. How are you feeling lately? SO READY!!! Good overall, very swollen feet/ankles but blood pressure & urine are good, so just normal swelling
4. QOTW: First, are you interested in me continuing with this check-in? I like it, but I'm not around for too much longer
Second, what projects are you working on for baby right now? I'm doing nothing, but I'm having my grandma make some curtains & a crib rail protector!
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.
