Hi everyone -
Hmmm... its now 4:15 on a friday afternoon, I guess its safe to assume that I wont be hearing back from my RE til Monday? Now that my OB said the crinone is pointless, I kind of hate to waste it - but I guess I will.
Ryan - I know how hard bed rest can be, but hang in there the way your little bean is! Crossed for good news on Monday.
Babyluv - I was crampy from the ET all the way until about 12 weeks, both my RE & OB say the same - that its your body telling you to take it easy. I can imagine how hard that is with 2 kids under 5 running around to chase after all day! And dont forget to keep drinking loads of water too.
Libby - Welcome! Nice to see you again! I was exhausted up until 14 weeks- I've just started to feel normal this past week. Yes, pics plesase!
And now we have 3 Thanksgiving babies due! Guess they all like turkey? When is your 1st OB appt?
Gi - Enjoy your long weekend! You must begetting so excited to tell everyone soon!
Lou - You are in such good shape that you'll have to turn sideways so we can see the bump! Thats a good sign that your Grandmother is eager to go home
I do hope that you get some answers though. UGH, now back pain on top of everything else? Sorry to hear that. You have to go within a week of your 1st OB appt because its 2 totally different appts. If they were to try to schedule both appts for the same visit - you'd be there all day long. At your 1st OB, its just like a GYN appt - health history, b/w, BP, weight, lungs, pap smear, pelvic exam, and if you're really lucky a u/s. I think you might be since your OB has done IVF herself - she "gets" it. Your NT scan appt thats usually 45-60 minutes of just u/s. I'll stay crossed that you get it abdominally too! And of course that you get luckier that myself and actually get to see the screen!
Ronda - I missed you! Oh, its a happy day for immunity! But still m/s? I hope you're free soon! I'm always craving spicy food, but I was before also - now the only difference is that it kills me with heartburn!
Steph - Thing 1 & Thing 2? I LOVE DR Seuss!!!!! I mean llike love, love ,love! I was reading at the age of 3 and I thank the Dr Seuss and my Grandmother for that. Thank you for reminding me - I wanted to buy the series of books and almost did - but decided it would be bad luck since I was still cycling at the time. Whew! I'm so glad that were able to do your NT scan abdominally! Oh, of course 1of them was stubborn
Tee hee you knew that was coming, didnt you? At least they got all the measurements that they needed. You're lucky to be getting another u/s - I now have to wait until 18 weeks, but they better tell me the gender. At least my OB is sending me to a different imaging center for the Anatomy scan - so I dont need to worry about the tech that wouldnt let me see anything again. I hope that you dont start spotting again, I know the "no fun" part is starting to bug you.
Wait? are you getting another scan before your Anatomy scan too? Anatomy scan is done between 18 -22 weeks, but you know I'm booking mine for 18w0days, right?
hugs & prayers to us all - xoxoxo
Doc didn't feel comfortable giving a gender. Though I paid very close attention and think Thing 2 is a boy and 1 might be a girl. We will see how accurate that guess is in 4 weeks! I have a follow up u/s 5/28. He did see that Thing 1's placenta seems to be low now and close to the cervix, so as of right now I have a previa. He isn't too worried and thinks that it may move. I hope it does! I really want the shot at a natural birth. Of course this is not good news for our "play time." Also, this means that I may bleed in the future. UGH! 
I just hope the previa moves. It wasn't a previa at 11w4d so I can hope it moves again... away from my cervix!
