How far along are you? 19w1d

How are you doing physically? Great, with the exception of sleep issues.

Mentally? I'm doing well since my last appointment. Even better now that I KNOW it's movement I'm feeling, I had a ton of it last night as I turned to my side to fall asleep. I get a little nervous because I feel B all the time but not really A, but I trust she's ok in there just hidden by the placenta.

Any appointments this week? Nada. A/S next Thursday.

Any questions, comments, or topics you'd like to discuss this week? N/A

QOTW: What's on pregnancy symptom you don't mind? My bump is probably the symptom I most love. It was a hard adjustment to see my body change but oh so worth it; and now that it's a clearly defined ball and I see it pull away from the rest of my body (no longer looking like fluff) I am loving it.

How far along are you? 20 weeks

How are you doing physically? I'm very very clumsy and get winded easily, but still feeling good.

Mentally? I'm feeling just fine about this pregnancy, but still incredibly sad when I'm reminded of my loss. I miss him so very much. This is starting to be my new normal though and I'm accepting of it. It's no longer crippling and affecting my daily activities so when I want to be a little sad or emotional I let myself.

Any appts this week? 20 week OB this afternoon.

Q/C/T?

QOTW: +another one to the belly. And I love the little reassuring movements. Guaranteed to bring a smile to my face.

How are you doing physically? Anxiety has been up this week which means I'm sleeping like crap. I'm hoping our A/S next week will help

Mentally? Feeling movement regularly helps some.

Any appointments this week? Next week.

Any questions, comments, or topics you would like to discuss this week? Nope

QOTW: What's one pregnancy symptom you don't mind? Feeling baby move, without a doubt. I don't know if that's really a symptom but it's the best part of being pregnant for me.

How far along are you? 20w3d

How are you doing physically? Pretty good! Just sleep difficulty which makes me a bit tired

Mentally? Much better once I started to feel movement. I was really nervous just before my A/S last week but had started to feel movement like that day. What a sigh of relief. I also found out I had an anterior placenta, which explains why I hadn't been feeling anything. I was thinking the worst, of course.

Any appointments this week? Not for a few weeks

Any questions, comments, or topics you'd like to discuss this week? Nothing

QOTW: What's on pregnancy symptom you don't mind? I second the movement. It makes it so much more real!!
