Re: ***2IF Grad Check-in 9/28***
I see MFM tomorrow, really looking forward to seeing growth! I seem to have gotten much larger and these guys have been sooo wiggly! It feels so strange to feel kicks down low and up high at the same time!
I feel...hungry. Always. I have some pelvic pain but still nothing like a month ago.
QOTW: I miss roller coasters and carnival rides. Our community carnival is coming up next weekend, I've loved going as long as I can remember, and DD has never missed a year. I love hearing her giggles on one of the spinning rides. DH and I randomly took off one weekend and spent our Saturday at a Six Flags riding coasters all day, just the two of us. It was September and the park was empty, so we just rode over and over! I want to go again!

Next regular Ob appointment on Monday And I can't believe that I'm finally at viability! I feel like I have been waiting for long for it to come. I hope she stays inside much much longer but atleast we have a fighting chance now.
I'm feeling good, which is such a blessing because we are in the throes of moving and getting settled into our new house and there is so much to do!
Lately I'm missing alcohol and all the no no food, really just having to think about everything I put in my mouth, we went out for lunch the other day and I was distracted and ordered a Greek salad one of my favs and then as soon as it arrived I took one look at the feta and went well crap I can't eat this....
@NB817 yay for your third beta!!!!
@CTinNV that is crazy about the catheter and hope that you don't have to deal with that again.
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...

Next visit is Monday for another U/S check and chat with dr.
I'm still an anxious mess of course, and looking forward to confirmation this SCH is gone, and viability. Can't come soon enough. I'm still at home on modified bed rest, so I'm hoping that helps.
It isn't one particular food I miss, but I miss enjoying the food I used to enjoy! All the foods I depended on during my first pregnancy I haven't been able to eat-Mac and cheese, fried rice, burritos from chipotle, etc.
