Pregnant & TTC Weekly Update!

[brummy14]

Cool! Thanks for taking over the check-in.

CL check this week continued to look great! Was over 4cm last week, so definitely where I should be. Anatomy scan next week (we already know we're having a girl thanks to the 234123 u/s I've had this pregnancy), but it should be fun to get to see baby for a little longer than normal, and DH is coming along as well, just for moral support, and since this will be the last u/s or appointment he attends, most likely! (That said, he only came along for the first u/s and when he had to learn how to give me shots -- I really don't feel the need to drag him along for much. Not like he can do anything but sit there and miss work. )

I'm doing pretty well. I'm 13 weeks today and 1st trimester has kicked my butt. All was well at my appointment a couple of weeks ago with HR 170. I will be monitored closely with US for growth uses this time but FX for no issues this time.

Thanks for continuing this! This check in is nice to have. Just knowing I am not alone in my fears of having a second and hearing so many full term success stories gives me hope.

We have officially decided to TTC. I was on the fence and we were going to NTNP for a while but I am way too type A for that. I am excited to be fully on the train and although I am nervous about being pregnant I am definitely ready for another. Just waiting to ovulate will probably do OPKs.

Brendan arrived earlier today by c section. 7 lbs 11 oz 20.25" and amazing. the whole experience was completely different. He's doing great and nursing like a champ. His only "issue" is that his temps aren't quite high enough so he may have to go under the warmer. But other than that we are all doing great!!!

Congrats phillygal34!!

It's been a while since I've checked in over here. DS was born at 31w 6d when I PPROM'd. We want to wait until he is walking and at least 18 months before TFAS, and even though he is pulling himself up on furniture and cruising along it, we've been told he has an immature nervous system, and it will be a while before he gets full control of his legs. He uses his arms to hold himself up on things, so it looks like it will a little longer than we had originally thought. We have exercises to do with him to help him develop better muscle tone to make it easier for him though, so hopefully that helps
