3. How are you feeling lately? Some days I'm really nauseous and can't eat. Some days I feel fine and eat six meals. Also very anxious. Hoping they're both still in there.
4. QOTW: we got a video monitor on prime day, we always wanted one with Brissy but never got one. Other than that, just hoping for two heartbeats next week....(can you tell I'm anxious?)
Appt tomorrow for US/ follow up on cerclage
Better some days, not completely done with the HG but READY to get rid of the zofran pump. I'm starting to feel them some. The other morning I woke up and it felt like everyone was piled up near my belly button (and the Doppler confirmed they were).
Q: I am so pumped for the baby Brezza. I'll be moving my keurig off the coffee bar to make room for baby keurig!

My next regular OB appointment is 8/10. Although I am hoping to get my SCH sooner so that I have the formal results in time for my next appointment but that has been like pulling teeth. Symptoms wise my low blood pressure is awful and I'm super lightheaded until the early afternoon.
Q: I don't really think there is much new we will get for the baby, but I have been eyeing up the piggy back board so DS can ride on the stroller I figure it's the only way I will get them both to go anywhere lengthy.
TTC#1 May 2009- July 2010 on our own with no luck
Started with RE in August 2010, dx with unexplained IF and then finally our 3rd IUI cycle using Follistim and Trigger resulted in our wonderful little man. Born 12/2/11
TTC#2 Never really prevented, but were careful early on as Dr. reccomended
Surprise BFP 12/16/13, started progesterone immediately as first numbers came back low, but betas were good. Progesterone wasnt enough. Natural MC 12/24/13.
Back with RE as of January 2014...
