Preggos:

How far along are you? If you can believe it...I am 27 weeks!!!
Team blue, pink, or green? We are TEAM BLUE

How has your pregnancy been so far? Amazingly great. Rather easy, especially with chasing a toddler at the same time. I expected it to be worse.
What were you dealing with in your TTC journey? I had four losses in a row and was finally referred to the RE. The initial battery of tests showed a blood clotting disorder. When I got pregnant, I was put on anti-coagulants and here I am 24ish weeks later. I am still in shock and awe.
Belly Pictures Please! Sure....This was 3 weeks ago. It has grown a little since then. We saw the baby last week...he is measuring in the 90th percentile for age

He was not giving us any good face shots though

Stinker already.

BeccaM · #15 July 6th, 2011, 10:17 AM

How far along are you? 35w5d!

Team blue, pink, or green? Blue - Cole Alexander

How has your pregnancy been so far? Not too bad. Just really tired most of the time.

What were you dealing with in your TTC journey? Had a loss at 8 weeks in Feb 2010. Took us about 9 months to conceive again. I think once I got thru some of the emotional distress of TTC again we was able to conceive our rainbow baby.

Belly Pictures Please! Me this past weekend at 35 weeks.

Pame�a · #16 July 6th, 2011, 11:34 AM

Preggos:

How far along are you? 29 weeks 1 day
Team blue, pink, or green? Still Green!
How has your pregnancy been so far? It's been tough and I think it's down to my age and I was 19 weeks pregnant just 3 months before getting pregnant again. So far baby is breech like my daughter.
What were you dealing with in your TTC journey? went from wanting to rip out reproductive organs to wanting another baby. The biggest hurdle was really taking a giant leap of faith and getting my husband on board, which he backed out at one point. Our last baby had T21.
Belly Pictures Please! No belly picks but this is our baby from today's growth scan.

NsMommy · #17 July 6th, 2011, 12:57 PM

How far along are you? 15 weeks, 1 day
Team blue, pink, or green? Green so far! Should have big ultrasound within the month.
How has your pregnancy been so far? Terrifying with a scare about the nuchal translucency at 11-12 weeks but everything seems withing normal limits. Been nauseous all day but feeling better now. Still have nausea/puking once a day or so. Starting to feel some maybe movements

.
What were you dealing with in your TTC journey? 2 miscarriages in a row (Sept at 8 weeks, Dec at 5 weeks), advanced maternal age (36), risk of birth defects but I think all is okay
Belly Pictures Please! I don't have any yet
