How far are you now? 17,3 Symptom check: Emotionally volatile, never wanna eat What and when is your next appointment? 11/3 for MFM and A/S! Anything you’d like to share with the group? Every time I think I'm getting excited, I find myself disassociating. I just think that I can't really get excited for this because I'm always going to be worried that something is going to go wrong at every corner. Hopefully the A/S and more movement will help me get into this. I hate feeling like I'm not excited to have a kid. I am, I just also can't feel like it's real right now.

1. How far are you now? 9 weeks on the dot 2. Symptom check: Dry heaving every morning, sometimes in the evening. Constantly feeling like I'm dripping or leaking but nothing is there. A few twinges here and there. Today, absolute exhaustion. Breasts haven't bothered me in a few days. 3. What and when is your next appointment? Friday. I meet with the NP and go over ... everything I guess. I wish I could hear the heartbeat. 4. Anything you’d like to share with the group? What works for you in dealing with anxiety and uncertainty? I look at the miscarriage risk chart every day but even in spite of morning sickness, exhaustion, peeing all the time, I still wonder if it's in my head.

mela99 Honestly? Before you can hear the heartbeat at home, nothing. And even though I can find the HB really easy now, I'm still anxious more often than I would like. I say my mantras as often as I need to and just beg days go to by faster until I can see the babe. I hope it gets easier for both of us. <3

Rama, you can update mine to carrying 1 boy! 1. How far are you now? 19+2 2. Symptom check: just the high BP that’s mostly under control with meds and slight activity restriction. Really feeling him moving around in there now, so that’s fun! 3. What and when is your next appointment? MFM on 11/2. It hit me the other day that we’re seeing him at 20+4 for a follow-up a/s, and we saw him for the first time at 20+4 with the girls where he confirmed C’s terrible diagnoses. I’m anxious as hell now. 4. Anything you’d like to share with the group? Not really. Just feeling anxious and ready to get past our loss milestone (21+6) so I can breathe a little easier.

Rama thanks for the check in! You can update me to team blue, the tech slipped at my last ultrasound . 1. How far are you now? 36+1 2. Symptom check: Slight swelling has started but other wise pretty good. I did tell someone I felt very, very pregnant the other day lol 3. What and when is your next appointment? Had an appt yesterday and that started my weekly appts. I go back in 2 weeks for a growth ultrasound. 4. Anything you’d like to share with the group? Apparently I have a yeast infection. I've brought up my symptoms to 2 male OB's on 2 separate occasions and they brushed me off saying it was normal pregnancy stuff. Since I've never had a yeast infection and never been pregnant I believed them. SI had to get my GBS swab yesterday and the (female) OB took one look and told me I had one. I'm frustrated because I've had the same symptoms this whole pregnancy .

laurensc927 Awww, I'm sorry the tech slipped. But congrats on your little boy. Also, a couple generous face punches to the male OBs.

laurensc927 Awww, I'm sorry the tech slipped. But congrats on your little boy. Also, a couple generous face punches to the male OBs. I'm actually ok with it. I feel like I can bond more with the baby now and MH is getting noticeably excited imagining life with a son (I think the idea of a daughter scared him lol).

laurensc927, WTF to those OBs. I can't imagine having a YI for that long! Hopefully treatment works quickly and it's all cleared up before your little BOY comes into this world Congrats!
