PGAL Check-In, Week of 3/13

szwill86 · March 2017

This thread is for August moms who have previously suffered a loss (miscarriage, stillbirth, etc).

I think we can kind of skip the intros by now, but do so I feel you'd like!

How far along are you?

How are you doing?

When is your next appointment?

Rant/Rave/Positive Vibes:

GTKY: Are you "over" the winter and dreaming of warmer weather, or are you lucky enough to live in a warm climate year-round?

How far along are you? 19 weeks tomorrow

How are you doing? Im in a state of super excited and super anxious about my AS this Friday. I just want to know everything is okay in there, and I cant wait to find out the sex. I have zero plans of buying everything pink/blue, because we want at least one more after this, but I want to get a couple boy/girl specific things.

When is your next appointment? Friday!

Rant/Rave/Positive Vibes: I think I need all the positive vibes I can get this week. time is moving slowly, and I just want friday to be here!
Rant We are supposed to get a blizzard tomorrow! It was 70 two weeks ago! WTH weather!
Rave We are officially getting a new tub from bathfitter, new windows, and a whole new HVAC system in our house before baby comes. These are the last 3 large projects that we wanted to get done in our house, and I cant wait!

GTKY: Are you "over" the winter and dreaming of warmer weather, or are you lucky enough to live in a warm climate year-round? OMG I am so OVER winter. like I said in my rant, it was 70 here at the end of FEB, and I even wore sandals, and now we are getting a blizzard. Dont get me wrong, snow in December for Christmas is great, but I want it gone come Jan 1. Totally unrealistic for living in Boston, but a girl can dream.

How far along are you?
18 weeks
How are you doing?
Pretty good. Lots of stretching and I'm assuming round ligament pain, yuck. But overall good.
When is your next appointment?
Tomorrow. Yet another pointless nutrition appointment. Next Monday I have the Anatomy Scan, and I am super psyched about that. Well, excited and nervous.
Rant/Rave/Positive Vibes:
I have felt some definite kicks!!! It's so cool. I wish my husband could feel it, too.
GTKY: Are you "over" the winter and dreaming of warmer weather, or are you lucky enough to live in a warm climate year-round?
So, over winter weather, and the climate here in California wine country seems to agree with me.

How far along are you?
17 weeks 4 days!
How are you doing?
I have had some PGAL moments. I had horrible back pain like never before last week. I called by OBGYN. And I panicked a little this weekend when I couldn't find the HB on the doppler.
When is your next appointment?
This week, Thursday. My weeks are off, which is driving me nuts!
Rant/Rave/Positive Vibes:
Rant: Everyone keeps telling me they want a girl. I have NO CONTROL OVER THIS!
Rave: My hubby has a job!

I actually I want snow! I live in Ohio, and we have only accumulated 4 inches all winter. I love snow. Today it is snowing, but we are only going to get an inch or two. And it started after we were at school (I'm a teacher) and should stop by morning. So, no snow days either!

@littlebug2010 hope time flies and Friday is here before you know it! I also feel like the Boston area/MA in general always get slammed during snow storms. Stay warm tmrw!

@Lefin glad you're feeling better! I'm feeling a lot of stretching, too! I'm jealous of your Cali winter weather as opposed to my NE winter.

@Kudlica27 back pain seems to be common trend in all these ladies in this BMB. Hope it's not too intense. Yay that hubby got a job! Must be a big relief for you both.

AFM:

How far along are you? 16 wks today

How are you doing? Was fine until yesterday- started feeling some low down pressure by my bikini line and then today under my belly button. It's just a dull, radiating pain so I'm assuming just stretching to accommodate baby. My PGAL brain is creeping in as this week is when **tw** all my bleeding started last time and next week is my loss week **tw**. But I just have to think positively and know that I'm in a better place this pregnancy. Come onnnn, 17+5!!

When is your next appointment? Friday for a generic appointment- my last one before my anatomy scan on the 27th.

Rants/Raves/Positive Vibes: I almost cried happy tears today. Since I was feeling weird all day, I used the doppler when I got home from work. When I was listening to the HB and the usual movement sounds, I felt baby move that coincided with the sounds. I was so shocked that I yelled, "OH MY GOSH" and scared my dog.

What a strange/amazing feeling it was! Now I know what to be on the lookout for.

GTKY: Are you "over" the winter and dreaming of warmer weather, or are you lucky enough to live in a warm climate year-round? So over it. I thought winter was done but nooooo. At least a foot of snow in the forecast for tmrw. School is already cancelled, but I'm dreading making it up in June.

bubblesmtu · March 2017

How far along are you?
Almost 17 weeks
How are you doing?
I've been feeling little movements so now when I go for a while without feeling anything I get nervous
When is your next appointment?
Not until march 31 for the A/S and it feels so far away!
Rant/Rave/Positive Vibes:
I took DD to a mother/daughter tea party called Frolic with the fairies last weekend. It's like a little girl prom is the best way to describe it. All the little girls dress as fairies and the ballroom is decorated with a different theme each year. She had so much fun, it was adorable.

Like everyone else, I'm so over it! The snow was over and done with today so I hope that was the final blast of winter

@szwill86- you're getting so close to your milestone yay! And feeling the baby move is the best

How far along are you?
Almost 20 weeks! Halfway!!!

Having a rough day. I didn't sleep well last night, then had a headache today. Those combined for some extra bad nausea and I left work an hour early. I've been on the couch ever since.
When is your next appointment?
Two weeks.
Rant/Rave/Positive Vibes:
Just the nausea today. I'm so ready to feel good consistently.

I'm kind of over it. Not ready for hot and humid summer yet, but consistently 70s temps would be welcome!

maebee87 · March 2017

How far along are you? 15 weeks

How are you doing? OK,

When is your next appointment? April 3- Anatomy scan, if feels like a lifetime away.

Rant/Rave/Positive Vibes: I felt some movement when I was using the doppler yesterday, it was awesome for my PGAL brain.

Ugh, I'm so over the winter. We are expecting a huge storm here today/tomorrow. It is March break here, so I am off work (teacher perk) but I keep seeing all my facebook friends on tropical beaches and am really missing the sun. We were due for a trip this year, but Zika and no drinking made me postpone.

@littlebug2010 Friday is going to be amazing!
@a2003tiger Ahhhh!!! Almost 20 weeks already?!!

18+2

How are you doing?
Other than insomnia being for real I'm well. I wish I knew I was feeling this baby more often. I feel like it's so random. I know I know they do more sleeping than anything right now.

When is your next appointment?
3/23 Anatomy scan!

Rant/Rave/Positive Vibes:
Rave! I'm HOME on my couch typing this.. SNOW DAY!
Rant.... I'm working on report cards.........

GTKY: Are you "over" the winter and dreaming of warmer weather, or are you lucky enough to live in a warm climate year-round?
This has been a mild winter for us so I kinda can't complain. Today is some snow with LOTS of ice. I am ready for spring though and to wear a cute dress I ordered off of Zulily the other day.

littlebug2010 · March 2017

@cmmiller531 Thanks! I am really excited, and trying to constantly remind myself that I have felt movements, heard the HB and and that everything has come back low risk so far, so I have no reason to work myself up!
