2. How is PGAL brain treating you? Okay. H told me he doesn't think there's any reason to worry, and I shouldn't either because that can't be good for the baby. I almost strangled him.
THIS IS MY H!!! Tonight I was crying and he pulled that line. My reply? How am I supposed to relax and forget when I'm constantly reminded. I go to the bathroom, I'm looking for blood, I feel a twinge and worry. I asked him (he was recently waiting to hear about some paperwork that got screwed up for a promotion), "how would you feel if you wore a pager/watch this past weekend that went off every 15 minutes reminding you that you were waiting for that email back? Would you be stressed?!" He quickly shut up.

1. How many weeks are you? What fruit? 7w1d 2. How is PGAL brain treating you? Not good at all. I posted a thread about this, sorry about that. I POAS and it was nowhere near as dark as the others have been. I'm so worried for a bad appointment tomorrow. I'm trying not to overthink it, but I think I should prepare myself and my DH. 3. Appointments this week? I have one on Friday morning 4. GTKY: Do you and your SO have a nickname for your LO? Not really, I think we're avoiding it until the 1st appointment.
Hey ladies...I just jumped ship from TB so I am back with ya'll (yay!!!) I'm a day late but glad to be here! 1. How many weeks are you? What fruit? 8 weeks today...raspberry
2. How is PGAL brain treating you? this week I have been much better...I was a wreck last week (I was also spotting). I'm hoping the positive vibes are here to stay. 3. Appointments this week? US tomorrow morning
4. GTKY: Do you and your SO have a nickname for your LO? we call it all sorts of things, little bean, lil bit, etc.
1. How many weeks are you? What fruit? 6w3d, sweet pea 2. How is PGAL brain treating you? Rough. Bad dreams. Constantly checking for spotting. Never having had a pregnancy that didn't end in loss I question every single twinge and odd feeling. Already called the after hours line once... 3. Appointments this week? First u/s tomorrow afternoon. Need extra love. This is how I found out about my m/c last time. 4. GTKY: Do you and your SO have a nickname for your LO? Sometimes refer to as "nugget" but freak out every time I talk about it like maybe somehow I'll jinx it all.
I'm so glad to find a group who understands this. This is such a hard and lonely road sometimes. Loving it here already.
This is my first post here - healz413 is carrying our (hopeful) Rainbow baby, I carried the twins we lost at 21w last summer and just couldn't bring myself to risk another loss with my body....
1. How many weeks are you? What fruit? 7w2d today, blueberry
2. How is PGAL brain treating you? We are doing okay for the most part. It's strange for us to have our dynamic changed with H. pregnant this time, but it's okay. We decided not to have an optional 7w ultrasound this week because our RE's clinic will do one for sure next week, but I think the anxiety is starting to sneak in again... Overall though, she's okay and I am trying to not let my head run away with it all.
3. Appointments this week? H. had our 3rd intralipid infusion on Tuesday. Our clinic does them before transfer, and then every 3-4 weeks until first tri ends. Our next appt for an u/s and meeting with the RE will be wednesday next week.
4. GTKY: Do you and your SO have a nickname for your LO? This one is called alternately "Rocky 3" or "Rockertunity Flash" --- there's a long story there, but when we did our IVF cycle our other two embryos (that became the twins we lost) were named "Rocky 1" and "Rocky 2".
We're a queer family with some bad fertility issues. I'm 32, have dimished ovarian reserve, and my partner-love ("healz413") has severe endo. We did Partner IVF (her eggs, my uterus) for our first babies. Our beautiful twin daughters, Tavin & Casey, were born in June '14 too premature at 21 weeks to survive - We miss them.
Our double-rainbow baby "E" - otherwise known as "Rocky 3" was born in August of 2015. She's wonderfu.
1. How many weeks are you? What fruit? I am 8 weeks today which is a raspberry.
2. How is PGAL brain treating you? Better than I would think considering we didn't see a HB and were measuring behind on Tuesday. I have rationalized that if I conceived on cd 22, it would make sense that I would be measuring 8 days behind. And I have read lots of stories of people who didn't see heartbeats at a 6 week visit but did later. I am sure I will breakdown sometime this weekend.
3. Appointments this week? Blood draw tomorrow and u/s on Monday.
4. GTKY: Do you and your SO have a nickname for your LO? nope. We didn't with DS either. I was thinking Beano because I have so much gas.
1. How many weeks are you? What fruit? 4w1d....poppyseed (god, it feels like I've been pregnant for weeks now! how is it only 4?) 2. How is PGAL brain treating you? Not great, I'm constantly thinking I'm not pregnant and will find out at my u/s at 6 weeks 3. Appointments this week? not until 2/4 4. GTKY: Do you and your SO have a nickname for your LO? no, we barely talk about it. we're both very nervous
1. How many weeks are you? What fruit? 6 and 2--- Sweet Pea 2. How is PGAL brain treating you? REALLY BAD early this week. I wasn't feel very symptomatic and I had been chatting with a girlfriend who had a MC this past fall. That just got my brain going and looking for trouble. I have calmed down since, but there's always that little voice back there. I have literally caught myself saying "Stop!" outloud or under my breath when my thoughts go negative. It's helped quite a bit, and gotten some awesome looks. 3. Appointments this week? Nope. I had my confirmation last week and now I wait until 2/13 for my first OB appt. 4. GTKY: Do you and your SO have a nickname for your LO? Baby #1 was baby C for our last name. I've just been calling this LO my little nugget and interchanging some names I like

Sorry I'm late, I fail at checking in.
1. How many weeks are you? What fruit?
Five - apple seed 2. How is PGAL brain treating you?
Alright. I already had nausea with my daughter at this point, so far all I feel is tired.. so I'd appreciate some constant reminder, but at the same time do I really want to be nauseated all of the time? 3. Appointments this week?
I had a dating U/S. Measured right on track and saw a pretty cute amniotic sac but nothing else. Got confirmed with my MWs, so I have my first appointment with them on the 17th of February. 4. GTKY: Do you and your SO have a nickname for your LO? We've referred to all of our babies as "The Beeb" or "The Little Beeb." Once we found out sex, my DD became "Maple" or we started calling her by her name. Nothing else here.. but we also call each other and my DD "beeb," too, so we're not very good at this lol
This is my first post on the new board but I've kept the same screen name
1. How many weeks are you? What fruit? ~5w,5d 2. How is PGAL brain treating you? it's getting better! 3. Appointments this week? first one tomorrow! They're doing an ultrasound and I kind of wish they wouldn't, because I know it's totally normal if I don't see anything. 4. GTKY: Do you and your SO have a nickname for your LO? not yet. We're both holding off on getting too excited just yet.
Just wanted to AW/share my excitement and update mine. I had my first appointment yesterday. I was so nervous, and was dreading the ultrasound because I was just convinced that there wouldn't be a heartbeat or they'd find an ectopic pregnancy or something. I had to wait for over an hour at the office too, which made it worse.
Well, I measured 6w, 1d (a little ahead of what I thought) and there was a heartbeat!!! Luckily H was there to see it with me. It finally feels real and we are so excited. I go back at 10.5w and will do the Progenity blood test.
