I don't think they're planning to put me on heparin injections. It sounded like they want me to go from the lovenox to a heparin IV, so I guess we'll see. I saw that, but I guess I'm just surprised since they are doing that at 38 weeks it sounds like. The reason for 36 weeks, which I thought was pretty standard, was in case you go into early labor it will hopefully out of your system within 12 hrs. Yeah, I don't know. I'll have to see what the MFM says. Maybe it's because they don't want to admit me to the hospital that early?

I'm cautiously dipping my toes in over here again.
How far along are you? EDD? 7ish weeks? I'll get my EDD next week.
How are you feeling physically and emotionally? The nausea and sore boobs are reassuring. I'm still extremely anxious, but it's getting a little better now that I've seen the heartbeat. I just hate PGAL brain and I keep trying to stop myself from getting my hopes too high.
Any upcoming appointments or milestones? Saw a good heartbeat this past Tuesday - I cried. I'll see my OB for my first prenatal appt next Friday.
Any other word vomit to share? I wrestle with guilt because we got pregnant immediately after a loss, before I'd had a period. My OB had said we didn't necessarily need to wait, but we weren't actively trying and I had in my head that it would take a little while. So if something goes wrong, I'll feel like it's because we didn't wait. I just hate PGAL brain so much and I can't help but be a little jealous of those (including some of my close friends) who seem to have comparatively worry-free pregnancies. I know that isn't a healthy headspace to be in, but I still struggle with it.
