Re: September TTGP Grad Check-In
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? Oct 2015-Jan 2017 participating (lurking for at least a year before that!)
*How far along are you? Last check-in: 38+4 today. Last day of being pregnant! This little guy is scheduled to come out via c/s tomorrow (!!!!) because he's breech and after measuring him and me, the docs didn't think I had a decent chance to deliver without surgery, so they want to take him out before he tries to come himself. So thankful to live in a time where these things can be predicted, analyzed, and acted upon!
*Which birth month board/due date? S17 though I haven't been actively participating since the summer...I pop in here and there.
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? blue
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. not sharing publicly, but we've had his name picked since July 2016. If he was a girl, we'd have had the name picked since August 2015 lol.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? actually my main fear right now is
a) that he'll magically flip and be head down before tomorrow and they'll send us home with no outside baby...although they said he is so engaged this is super unlikely (although logically i know him flipping down would be the best thing for him, the anxiety has been really building over the last month. TW: between my own early loss, trying for more than a year to get a healthy fetus to begin with, and a family history of stillbirth, I just need this baby to be outside asap)
b) having a planned c/s will interfere with breastfeeding, which I want to do.

BFP #3 November 2018: Baby #2 expected August 2019
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? Actively Feb 2016-Summer 2016 and then mostly on private boards/the IF boards/threads

*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Blue!
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. We have a name, and now that we know what we are having we've been using his name quite a bit. It's such a surreal thing!
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share?
I still wish the best for everyone here!
First check in!
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? May - Aug '17
*How far along are you? 7w3d by ovulation date; no dating US yet.
*Which birth month board/due date? April
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Team finding out! My husband floated the idea of waiting to find out last night then just said, "But I know you, you'll look at work and ruin everything." God that man knows me well.

We have a prelim boy and girl name but my husband vacillates on the the girl name so we'll see.

Married DH: 2013

BFP 8/14/17 --> Due 4/27/2018
Hi ladies!
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? 2 months, from the middle of June to the middle of August
*How far along are you? 6w5d
*Which birth month board/due date? May 2018/May 1 2018
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? We don't know yet, but we will be finding out
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. We haven't even discussed it yet. Last time, we waited until we knew we were having a boy to seriously talk about names. I'm starting to keep a list of names I like as I encounter them.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? Just really anxious for my appointment a week from tomorrow. I'll have an ultrasound and blood work that day. I misS y'all so much and lurk on here on the regular
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? Active participant from October 2015-November 2016, then mostly the IF boards. I now lurk the IF board on TTGP daily and cheer for all of my IF sisters.
*How far along are you? 27w3d with di/di twins
*Which birth month board/due date? December, although I will deliver no later than November 24th--likely closer to November 10th.
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Team Blue x 2!
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. We are mostly finalized, but I want to wait until we are 100% before we share in case something changes.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? I've been on modified bed rest since 22 weeks and will remain on modified (or could change to strict) bed rest for the remainder of the pregnancy. My pancreas can't make enough insulin and I was recently diagnosed with gestational diabetes after passing my GD test at 16 weeks (I took the test early since I'm at a high risk with PCOS and having twins). Now I am working to be controlled with insulin and diet. I get to see the boys every 1-2 weeks via ultrasound now, and at 30 weeks I will start seeing them twice a week. It's been a long journey to get where we are, but I wouldn't change it for the world.

*How long were you active on TTGP and when? feb 2015 - July 2017. Though I was TTC less than that.
*How far along are you? 11+3
*Which birth month board/due date? 3/30
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Pink!
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. Elise for sure for the first name. we are thinking Xuehua for middle name. Means Snow Flower in Mandarin (H is from China so Elise will be hapa) which we think is good for her origin story. What with being frozen and coming back to life lol.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? I got a doppler and I've been listening to her heart beat every day. It's seriously amazing.
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? almost a year - Aug '16 through the end of July '17
*How far along are you? according to my last US 10+2 (US tech was an intern so I'm not sold on her measurements), but 10+4 based on LMP/O date.
*Which birth month board/due date? April BMB, EDD April 5-7th (my birthday is April 8! What a great bday present!)
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? having a hard time deciding whether or not to be team green! Part of me can't imagine not finding out the sex, but DH kinda wants to be team green.
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. We picked out a girl's name a while ago, but it's getting popular which annoys me. Still don't have anything concrete for a boy.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? as always, rooting so hard for everyone, especially my IF ladies!
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? Jan/April '17
*How far along are you? 24+2 with mo/di twins
*Which birth month board/due date? Dec '17
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Team Pink x 2!
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. We've got a couple names that we're pretty set on, but not telling people in the "real world" yet, because it could still change. For right now, we're pretty set on Penelope Jane (like Penny Lane - haha total accident, but I love it), and Abigail Ellie. Good kid nicknames and good adult names.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? No questions or concerns, thankfully. This is getting pretty real with baby showers, moving into a new house next month, and ending my jobs. These babies are kicking up a storm over the last couple weeks, which is really cool, albeit a little freaky at first. Since this type of twin is considered high risk, I get ultrasounds every other week, and soon it'll be every week to make sure they're both growing at the same rates. I'm just laying low and am grateful for every single day that these babies are safe and healthy.
Rooting hard for you guys on TTGP. I lurk often and celebrate every victory! Xoxo!
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? Lurked Sept/Oct 2016, Active Nov 2016 -Feb 2017

*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Pink!
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. She is officially Gianna Marianne (DH is letting me tell ppl now lol)
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? As of my last appointment, baby is head down. (Though she keeps shoving what I'm guessing is a foot up under my ribs.. which is uncomfortable.) Also have developed a nagging back pain that's only relieved with laying down. I'm still a bit early... but I'm ready for an outside baby .
BFP #2 3/18/19 * EDD 11/25/19* DS born 11/30/19

*How far along are you? 25 weeks today... crap how did that happen?!?
*Which birth month board/due date? December, christmas
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Team green
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. Still no progress on the name front, if its anything like last time it will be a last minute, this baby is due and we need to pick a name decision.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? No questions, things are plugging along.
I lurk the crap out of my IF ladies, I hope you all know I am rooting so hard for you and if you need anything I'm happy to help. Hugs to you all and I can't wait for the day you get to post here too. (weather that is via pregnancy or adoption or other.)

Additionally, dealing with the potential of moving from the west coast to the east coast when I am around 34 weeks along. Any and all advice appreciated in my inbox! Mostly concerned about getting a doctor set up in the new city and the fact that hubby will be moving at least 3 months before I do. If anyone has done a cross country move, send tips my way!

*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? I've had some issues with high blood pressure and the baby measuring small over the last few weeks. So, they are probably going to induce me at 38 weeks. This was my actual face when the doctor told me that:
I also found out that I have a succenturiate placenta (a placenta that grows a lobe). In my case it doesn't seem to be an issue, but could explain why the baby is small.

Active front runner that's held on for 5-6 weeks now but we're not sharing.

Excited, scared, nervous for this kiddo to come out soon. Things are starting to get uncomfortable in there but we're hanging. Baby is happy, healthy, and currently head down so can't complain too much!

*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share?
We go in this week for an ultrasound on Thursday. I am a little nervous because we will see if the choroid plexus cyst they found at the anatomy scan has gone away. I am really hoping and being optimistic it has...but until I know for sure, trying to keep anxiety down.
I shared this on the weekly randoms, but wanted to share again for those who may not have seen it. Starbucks just added an employee benefit that covers up to $20,000 in IVF assistance for full-time and part-time employees. I know it's not an option for everyone to work there and that IVF is a difficult journey, but hoping that sharing the info may help it become affordable and a reality for couples that struggle to conceive.

*How long were you active on TTGP and when? June 2016 - July 2017
*How far along are you? 11+3
*Which birth month board/due date? EDD 3/31/18 on April BMB
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? I think we are going green! I had my NIPT today so when those results come back it will be hard not to look. We will be trying to stay strong lol
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. Settled on a family name for a boy. I had a list of girls names but my front runner is also getting popular like @lund trying to figure out whether I care.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? Nothing really! Just starting to feel better which is exciting. I am hoping for big things in the very near future for my IF ladies!!
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? I started participating on TTGP in December 2016 but was TTA until April 2017 due to work concerns. I took a bump break in July for a 2 week vacation and then got my BFP on Aug 1st.
*How far along are you? 9 + 1
*Which birth month board/due date? April 16th is my EDD
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Finding out! DH wants to wait until the birth but I just can't do that. I'm way too much of a planner.
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. My H and I both agree (for now) on the name Rory Charles if it is a boy. We haven't discussed girl names too much but I really like Vera Jean and will probably push for that unless he comes up with something I like more lol.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? I have felt relieved and much more relaxed since my first u/s last Thursday. I got to see the baby and hear the heartbeat which made so much of my anxiety go away!
Thanks so much for the tag! I continue to lurk often and root for all of you.
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? 2 ish months, then a break, then 4 ish more months: September-November 2016, then again March-July 2017 (when the need for IF treatment became apparent)
*How far along are you? 13 + 6 with di/di twins
*Which birth month board/due date? March 2018, but realistically will be surprised if we make it that far.
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Finding out at anatomy scan in late October
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. 2 names of each sex picked out, but not sharing publicly (or even to most family members because we don't want their opinions lol). My maiden name is now my middle name and we agreed will be all our kid's middle names too so that's decided, but, you, know, it's kind of unique so stranger danger.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? The NT recently went well and we're so relieved. Wanted to own a home before birth, but waiting out for a salary change + what we're pretty sure is a local real estate bubble so probably won't have our own house for these little people, which is a bummer (drooling over other people's nursery pics over here...), but we're dealing.
Can't wait until the day when I lurk here in TTGP and don't recognize any avatars! Seems to get closer and closer to that every month. FX for everyone!

*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? No questions or anything, but as always I'm rooting so hard for everyone here!!!

*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? *TW* Just hoping to get close to full term here. I've had two hospital visits for contractions and got a shot to stop them the first time. DH was at work both times and I was alone, so it was a bit scary and sad considering our first baby would have come around the time of the first visit. Anyway, I am not at an increased risk for preterm labor at the moment according to tests. */TW* I have some carpal tunnel with hand numbness going on and I'm just praying it goes away fast so I can feel every inch of our rainbow baby when he arrives! Some of the things we do to get and stay pregnant are really tough, but I know that it will be worth it. Fingers crossed for all of you ladies!!!

Hi Friends!!
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? Jan '17 - May '17
*How far along are you? 22 + 2
*Which birth month board/due date? Jan '18, though only as a lurker
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Blue!
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. Working on it... We decided to put our top 16 names into an NCAA style bracket to narrow them down. We made it to the final 4 and that is where we started to differ. I'm pretty sure we each have our clear front runner though.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? Nothing else to really share. The shopping has started, which sounds fun but is actually kind of overwhelming when you have no idea what things are. But all in all things are good. I'm constantly lurking and rooting for everyone here!

Because of all the nonsense I had to put my body through to get pregnant, H gave me naming rights. I have a name I like, but every time I imagine H saying it it sounds wrong. I'm also incredibly indecisive so that's not helping.
