i want to know how the other girls from ttcal are doing? everyone else having the same problems i am with internet and life?View Thread


When I took the pg test in april I knew, the second the plus sign showed up, I would never get to look upon that child and hold it in my arms. The 2 weeks of tests and u/s, pokes and prods, pelvic exams and questions; I never had any hope. My mind knew what my heart didn't want to accept. I hated that people kept saying reassurances knowing what I felt. The only people that knew were my sis and mother. It was heart wrenching and I became a very bitter person.
When my husband read the pg test in August, I was floored. It immediately became a source of anxiety. This whole pregnancy has been anxiety and fear. I literally exhausted myself beyond reason. Yesterday was honestly the best day I have had since the day I had my son. That includes becoming married. It makes me thankful for every moment of sickness, pain, pokes, tests, and peeing myself. As much as I am embarassed by that last statement, I am thankful cause it just reassures that this kid is growing and moving just like he should be.View Thread

I can tell you that even when the mw uses the dopler and I can hear the heartbeat, I am still panicking about the baby growing properly. I dont think we will have true peace until our babies are in our arms breathing and crying.View Thread

19w 3d
weight- up 5 from prepreg but total gain is 12 from my 7lb loss in tri 1.
s/c- 1.34 cm kidney stone, popping hips, itchy skin and hiccups. I went to the urologist yesterday after I had to wait 2 weeks for the appointment and they told me its a wait and see approach for expecting women with a kidney stone this large. If it moves they will try a stent, but they wont blast it or try to remove it until I am late 3rd tri or delivered. I take the loritab as needed which is mostly at night. DS keeps me busy enough that I dont really think about it until I rest at night. At least the morning sickness has complete subsided. Im still concerned about the SCH diagnosed at 8 weeks but they are checking that at my next scan. I still vomit everytime I try canned tomato anything. DH thinks it only happens when he cooks dinner but thats not true. Other than being in pain and exhausted, lo is very active and seems happy, especially after I eat anything cold or dairy.
d/a- 20 week u/s on the 19th with renal scan. Im still not fully convinced LO has boy parts because the first u/s was questionable and the last one I couldnt tell its head from its butt. Can't wait to get it all out of the way and hopefully get some relief from the anxiety of this high risk pregnancy.View Thread


Anyone else felt their LO move yet? When did you first feel it moving?View Thread
