[mrskblack11]

How far along? 22 weeks!

How are your symptoms? Heartburn and acid reflux are becoming stronger.

How is PgAL brain treating you? Things have been good. I feel him moving more often and it calms my PgAL brain.

Next appointment/milestone? I have a check up and quick U/S on Friday. The tech didn't save a picture of my placenta at my A/S and my OB wants to see it.

GTKY: What is your favorite Girl Scout Cookie? I like to freeze my Thin Mints. They are the best!!

[grailseeker14]

How far along? 29 weeks

How are your symptoms? Pregsomnia with all the aches and pains that come from trying to roll over and/or getting into/out of bed for pee runs... it's killing me a slow death. Heartburn was sucking but doctor started me on ranitidine and it's been miraculous. Because I'm up/down to pee a half dozen or more times per night, I've been sleeping in the living room so as to not disturb my husbands sleep AND because our futon is easier to get into/out of because it's lower to the ground. I'm not looking forward to 2 1/2 or 3 more months sleeping on that thing, though.

How is PgAL brain treating you? Since I'm feeling babyGrail move in big ways and often, PgAL brain has been fairly minimal. My bigger problem has been obsessively worrying over not being able to control my blood sugars well enough to avoid the possibility of induction or c-section.... but that's slowly getting better too.

Next appointment/milestone? I see my OB next at 32w at the end of this month, at which point we'll be scheduling out all the rest of our appts. 35/35 is the next "milestone" I'm aiming for but 37w is the prize I've got my eye on at the moment.

GTKY: What is your favorite Girl Scout Cookie? Samoas. I could eat myself into an early grave on those.

[mara005]

How far along? 14 weeks

How are your symptoms? Been good, still so freaking tired and craving salt.

How is PgAL brain treating you? It's been ok. I'm passed even my longest loss milestone, but I'm still nervous. My doppler is a life saver but I still feel the need to use it 2-3 times a day.

Next appointment/milestone? Next appointment is in 2 weeks, an early anatomy scan and talk with the midwife.

GTKY: What is your favorite Girl Scout Cookie?
Samoas all the way!

[healz413]

How far along? I'm a day late but we were 9w yesterday

How are your symptoms?
I'm tired all the time. My nausea is worse in the afternoon/eve than in the morn. I burp a lot at night. manada talked me into cotton sports bras which are a nipple saver.

How is PgAL brain treating you?
Ok. I'm feeling sad a lot which is partially loss related and partially hormones. But I'm not currently overly anxious about the pregnancy. As soon as we get mediocre news or a worrying occurrence, I'm confident PGAL brain will kick into full gear.

Next appointment/milestone?
Next weds is our 10w ultrasound.

GTKY: What is your favorite Girl Scout Cookie? Tagalongs. With thin mints as a close second. We don't have the in canada though which makes me really sad.

[flippinchica]

How far along? 13 weeks (also a day late)

How are your symptoms? Better. Nausea is much better but still pretty tired.

How is PgAL brain treating you? Better since my NT scan last week. Mostly I feel pretty positive but I did pull out my doppler to check the HB before buying maternity clothes yesterday.

Next appointment/milestone? I have an OB appt this afternoon but I'm more anxious about getting the results of my Mat21 bloodwork (probably next week)

GTKY: What is your favorite Girl Scout Cookie? Thin mints!

[snowbigdeal]

Hey all, I'm a day late and I've been away from the PGAL board since around Christmas, but am hoping to transition back in. Welcome to those of you I don't recognize yet (theophania healz413 and flippinchica), and hello to the old hats! Thanks for running the show, mrskblack11!

How far along? 30 weeks.

How are your symptoms? Not terrible, but I feel gigantic and heartburn is killer these days.

How is PgAL brain treating you? Also not terrible, I am having tons of movement, which helps. But I'm approaching my loss milestone (33 weeks) and am not sure how that is going to affect me.

Next appointment/milestone? Had a 30 week ultrasound today to follow up on a slightly dilated kidney, and then have an OB appointment on Friday to find out the results. Our tech today gave us a quick 3D scan at the end. Baby girl is adorbs! Super fat little cheeks. I am not feeling too worried at this point about the Friday follow up, the anomaly was very slight originally and I've heard they frequently clear up. Friday's appointment will also be the start of going in weekly for checkups/NST scans, which I think will provide me with some reassurance as the pregnancy progresses.

GTKY: What is your favorite Girl Scout Cookie? I'm with grailseeker14 and mara005, samoas are teh best.

[mrskblack11]

grailseeker14 I hope the futon is comfy! I may have to switch sides with my hubby at some point since he is closer to the bathroom.
mara005 my doppler always gives me peace of mind when I am feeling anxious.
theophania I hope the next two weeks go by quickly for you.
healz413 Sports bras are the best. I avoid wearing regular bras.
flippinchica I hope your appointment went well yesterday. FX for good Mat21 results.
snowbigdeal I hope you receive good news tomorrow.
