Ladies of June and Beyond

I thought I would start this thread as a way for us ladies who cycled together in June to keep in contact. Even if you weren't from June, you are more than welcome to stop in and just chat with us!

Hi Chris count me in! How are those twins treating you? Are you having to switch to maternity clothes yet? With my twins it was about 8 wks when none of my pants fit anymore.

As for me things are going very well. I had a bit of a scare yesterday when Clay jumped on my belly right above the pelvic bone and i had a bunch of cramping. I went in today though and heard the heartbeat and everything seems just fine. I've had to make the switch to maternity clothes over the last couple weeks as none of my regular pants fit. still dealing with a lot of m/s, but it is totally worth it!

Hugs
Kimmy

Great idea! I've wondered what has happened to all of the ladies in the June thread. I'm very glad for all of you that are still doing well with your pregnancies. I've joined a FET thread and I'm scheduled for 9/9. Hope this time is better than the last.

Great idea Chris!! Thanks a lot!

I hope you are all doing fine. I haven't heard from many in a while. After my D&C, I received wonderful messages from many of you, which I appreciate a LOT!

Right now I am in a healing stage. It has been already a month. Each day I feel much better. This week AF should come and visit me. After that, I would be doing auto-inmune testing. Both of my REs believe my miscarriage was due to genetic factors. But, still, my RE is wonderful and agreed to do some further testing.

Meanwhile, I am working on my inner and deep dimension. We want to try again next January/February. By then, I will be strong enough mentally to handle a BFP or a BFN.

Everyone is finding their way over here!

Kimmy - I read about your scare on our March thread. I'm so happy to hear that everything is okay. I haven't quit had to make the switch to maternity clothes yet, but I think it's just around the corner. I've been fortunate so far and haven't had much morning sickness at all. I just get a little naseous every once in a while.

Yolanda - Glad to hear from you! It's good to hear that you're moving forward. Good luck on your upcoming FET and keep us posted on your progress!

Claudia - I was so sad to hear about your miscarriage. I'm glad you are taking time to heal and Jan/Feb will be here before you know it! Are you going to go back to Peru again for your cycle?

I can't wait for more of our June ladies to come and update here!

I've been doing pretty well. I have another u/s tomorrow with my RE to check on my beans. If things are good he may release me to my OB. I've been feeling pretty good just a little tired. My only problem so far is my lower back has been bothering me lately, but I'm visiting a chiropractor so hopefully we will get it under control. DH and I are going camping this weekend for the long weekend, which should be fun!

Hey all! I'm getting by, still with heavy and constant m/s and constipation. I had my first apt with my OB today, which turned out to be mostly informational. I'm going to schedule my NT scan tomorrow. It would be good to see how the babies are doing ...

Hi Girls!!! Thanks Chris for starting this thread. I've been stalking most of you guys on the March thread since I'm a little behind you. Chris, I think we're only a week apart though. I had my second u/s yesterday and everything looks great! The heartbeat was 174. I am relaxing a little bit, telling myself everyday that everything is going to be alright. It's hard because DH doesn't understand the fears.

I graduated from the RE and go to my first OB appt. on Sep. 10th.

I've been pretty lucky, not much m/s. Just a little nauseaus and some other tummy troubles. Of course I'm tired and moody too! I'm so excited to be nine weeks tomorrow. I'm already getting a little pooch! I highly recommend the Motherhood Maternity Secret Fit Belly pants. Even if you don't need the belly part yet, you can fold down the spandex part and still wear them. I just don't have any pants that fit and I don't want to buy a bunch of stuff that I'm only going to wear a couple of months. Also, Old Navy makes adjustable waist maternity pants! I wore mine yesterday, very comfy.

Angela - You're right! We are exactly a week apart.

I'm going camping for the holiday weekend with a big group of our friends. It should be a lot of fun! What's everyone else doing for the holiday weekend?

Wow, the idea of camping right now sounds horrible to me. I actually had a trip scheduled for next week, driving out to see my sister for a week, but I cancelled it because I didn't think I could enjoy it right now. I took my last week-release PIO dose last night, so I'm hoping to start feeling better late next week!

I'm not going to be able to get my NT scan until 9/11, at almost 14 weeks. I need an u/s sooner! I haven't seen my babies since 9 weeks and really need to know how they're doing, especially since there was such a big change from 7wks u/s to 9wks! I'm left a begging message with my OB ...

I'm not doing too much. You won't believe this, but I have poison ivy! And the worst of it is on my face! I have a big patch below my eye. Very attractive. I called my OB to make sure I can take Benadril which they said I could take.

I have my NT scan on 9/11 too! I will be 11 weeks. I see my OB the day before that. Hopefully we will be able to hear the HB on the dopler.

My NT scan is 9/8 - so there will be a few of us doing it right around the same time. My RE didn't release me until 10 wks and the perinatologists office really had to scramble to get me in on time. I have to go to their other office which is about 45min away. at least my brother is off that day and is going to watch the boys so we don't have to bring them - that would have been a disaster as they are not sitting still for long these days.

The only plans we have this weekend, besides a barbeque at my parents on Mon, is back to school shopping for the girls. I can't believe they are starting high school! It seems like yesterday we were having pre placement visits with them when they were 4 & 5 years old.

Hope everyone is doing well
Hugs
Kimmy

Hi girls, I'm just bumping our thread so it doesn't get lost. I'm doing well, having a good time off. I am off Sun, Tues, and Wed, so I had four days off with Monday off. It's been nice! And today, DH is at work and DS is at school, so I have the day to myself.

I hope you all had a nice holiday!

Hey girls... Glad to hear that everyone is doing well. I hope that you all had a great holiday weekend.

As for me, things are going as well as they could be really... I am having some issues with brown spotting but the babies seem to be fine? I check the HB's with the doppler every morning and I have another scan scheduled for tomorrow morning at 10 am. I am a bit nervous but being able to hear the HBs with the doppler has been reassuring, to say the least. The spotting is only happening in the morning and goes away by the afternoon. The docs don't really seem to be able to pin point the reasons for it but I am hoping to just know a little more tomorrow.

Please let me know if any of you experienced the same thing... thanks!
