YAY for our BFPs! Now what? As stated in my intro I will be a STM although this is my 3rd pregnancy. It all seems like ages ago now that DS is 3 and **TW** it's been over a year since my previous loss **End TW**. I've gotten my BFPs at home and blood work is pending with my GP. We don't plan to spill the beans until we hear a HB, which will be especially brutal once the inevitable MS kicks in God willing I get there. I'm thinking about Midwifery this time around, so I'm excited to explore that option. I'm specifically interested in the type of support she can offer that an OB wouldn't. Once I receive the bloodwork results I'll make my first appointment. In my nonexistent "me" time I think I'm going to crack out WTEWYE and continue Bump of course! So, other than reveling in the excitement, what's on your initial to-do list?
Re: BFP, now what?
Why did they start progesterone?? I was on it with my first but he was an IF baby. And the second she just did because we did it with the first. This one it hasn't been mentioned and I didn't ask but maybe I should???
I start a new job tomorrow and I took it because it would be amazing for life with a new baby and a toddler but they don't know I'm pregnant. Hoping they don't take the news hard when I get to 12 weeks and tell them. I've told all my friends and my parents. DHs parents don't know but i think they "know". I mean all I do is sleep. It's quiet noticeable. Or I'm always yawning and I look dead tired by 7pm. Definitely more cranky this time around lol toddlers don't like naps.
We are supposed to be going to Barbados at the end of June for a wedding, so going to have to start telling some people since we're probably going to bail on that trip due to Zika concerns. (I've been to plenty of places recently where Zika is prevalent and haven't seen a single mosquito, but feel like it's better safe than sorry.)
#2 due 2.15.18
Ok, I feel a smidge better, they're seeing me 6/26 to establish care. Then, will still have to wait 3 more weeks to see LO.
Also, had my 2nd blood draw today but have to wait until Monday to find out if it doubled. I hate waiting!!
The nurse said if they happened to get mine late today she would call me before she left.
As a side note 1ultrasound per pregnancy at 20 weeks is also the standard here. I am always jealous of so many of you ladies who get to see your baby's heartbeat at 8 weeks.

AFM having a 4th draw tomorrow. My HCG went from 330 to 1,039 on the third one. Nurse said depending on what my levels come back at tomorrow he may want to do an ultrasound on Friday. I'm a little anxious. She said bc of my age (35) sometimes he likes to check on things early and make sure there is nothing like an ectopic pregnancy. Now I'm paranoid he thinks something is wrong.
