Weeks pregnant/Due date: 29+3 / April 19
Baby is the size of a: Barbie convertible
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM
Team: Pink
Appointments: tomorrow for growth scan and OB with a side of TDAP
Symptoms: feeling like I have to pee all the time, but then barely peeing, stomach feels like it is going to fall off, achy, just plain ol over it.
Milestones: Need help getting up off deep couches or the floor
Rants/Raves/Vents: One of my neighbors that we watched the super bowl with texted today that both her and her 4yo were diagnosed today with strep. I leave on Wednesday for a work trip and I just know either me, DD, or both will end up sick while I’m gone. It is really hard for H to get off of work, so I hate leaving him to figure it out.
GTKY - Are you doing anything special for Valentine's day? We are planning to order heart shaped pizzas and having a fun family dinner. H will probably make heart shaped breakfast for me and DD and hopefully get some fresh flowers for our kitchen.

tapdancer I hope everything remains stable and uneventful for the next few weeks. Tlex I’ve been getting headaches, but they usually go away after extra water and just rubbing my head and neck.

tapdancer orangehibiscus even after it’s dry? 😭 I pretreated it, washed it, hung it to dry. I can make another attempt at getting it out if you think it’ll work. if you didn't dry it in the dryer i would try it. It may not work and probably won't fizz which is my favorite part about using peroxide on blood but i always treat and wash again with stains that dont come out.

FTM/STM/TTM/etc:ttm

Weeks pregnant/Due date: 28+2 Baby is the size of a: coconut I think FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM Team: Blue Appointments: had 3hr glucose today. Appts every two weeks now. Symptoms: hm. Huge? Hard to bend over? Lol idk. Milestones: third tri. My pee didn’t have protein in it! Lol 😂 Rants/Raves/Vents: *TW* this month is one year since my first of three losses back to back last year. seemed to go so fast yet such a long year. I think it made it seem fast because I looked back at this year and was watching videos of my DD and 2.5-3.5 for her she changed soooo much and I feel like I didn’t even realize it until I watched the videos. Made me feel guilty I was lost in the loss stuff :/ MH also said holy moly to how fast she grew too tho🤷♀️ GTKY - Are you doing anything special for Valentine's day? Not a thing lol Share any U/S or bump pics if you'd like: I did the second one this entire pregnancy last night with my daughter hanging upside down on me Read more: howeverithappened.proboards.com/thread/23945/check-2-4?page=1#ixzz5ei5KyFGu

Hugs nmom. This week was a year from my first loss and my EDD from my 3rd, and I feel you on feeling disconnected from the last year. I've been focusing on the fact that my DD doesn't know any different or remember most of the last year (lol) and is a bright and happy kid still, so thankfully I didn't screw her up as much as I felt like I might have....

Your totally right. Mom guilts is never ending isn’t it 😞 I felt better that my husband was even a little jaw dropped at how much she’s changed this year.

Weeks pregnant/Due date: 29+5
Baby is the size of a: acorn squash
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: stm
Team: blue
Appointments: Friday
Symptoms: tired, insomnia, acid reflux, back pain, BH
Milestones: getting closer
Rants/Raves/Vents: I tried to do my 3 hour glucose test last Friday and I got sick half way through; this happened last time I took it with my first pregnancy. It was horrible and I’m so mad I couldn’t finish the test. And my doctor is taking forever to get back to me about what to do now, which I technically know from last time but need a script for testing stuff
GTKY - Are you doing anything special for Valentine's day? I have a few little gifts for my DD and my H usually makes a special dinner.

*loss talk ahead* Hugs for the loss anniversaries nmom and pambee It's ok to think about your lost babies. Everytime I go to labor and delivery I have to walk past the outpatient survey area and this past Monday was exactly 5 years since my last D&C. I still think about it and that's ok. It's ok to remember those babies and to be sad about them. I know something that helped me to grieve was to plant something in my garden and I think about my babies when I see it.

Weeks pregnant/Due date: 28+6, April 25th Baby is the size of a: rollerblade FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM Team: pink Appointments: tomorrow, regular OB Symptoms: SPD, feeling large and in charge Milestones: third tri - officially! Rants/Raves/Vents: TW (pet loss) - had to say goodbye to my sweet pup this past weekend, her health really declined over the past week and half and we ended up rushing her to the emergency vet in the wee hours of saturday morning. we knew the time was coming, but weren't expecting to have to make that decision then and it's been really tough. she was the best dog and was over the moon when we brought our daughter home from the hospital, it's killing me that she won't be here when we bring home this baby. her brother (avatar pic) is lost without her. GTKY - Are you doing anything special for Valentine's day? i normally get my husband a couple of reese's hearts, but that's about the extent of the celebrating. ETA pic of my pup when we brought home my daughter, she was like velcro. PDQ pic.

loorin, I'm so sorry about your pup. What a sweet picture. I'm also sorry for those with upcoming loss anniversaries. It's not an easy thing to navigate those feelings. There are no wrong emotions.

Much love, fellow loss moms. It’s really hard. Whatever you feel is legit. I’m so sorry about your pup, loorin. I had to put a dog down while pregnant and it was so extra emotional, as if it’s not already so tough to do. I love that pic you shared.

Baby was measuring 8 lbs 13 Oz today, and did mostly good on the NST with one alarming episode. We just found out we were exposed to scarlet fever on Friday, and we’re all under the weather so it’s a bit alarming. I really need this baby to stay put until we’re healthy. C section is 2 weeks from today! Holy crap.
