My DH Kyle and I are expecting a little miracle due 12/21/10. We lost our baby girl Lilly to trisomy 18 on 2/12/10. We waited for my first cycle after our loss and lo and behold we got a BFP our first cycle trying after out loss! I got a BFP on 4/10, almost exactly 2 months after we lost our angel Lilly.

So far everything is going great and after our NT scan the odds that this baby had T18 is 1 in 2,521!!! Also we got an early gender guess and the tech is 99% sure it's a little boy

I thought I would put some links to my pregnancy stuff just incase anyone wants to check it out.

Today I'm 13 weeks 4 days. When I was pregnant with Lilly I was exactly 13w4d when my OB called with the startling results from the blood portion of my ultrascreen, 1 in less than 5 chance of trisomy 18/13. One of my best friends was in town with her hubby and baby girl staying at our house. My doctor called right before we were about to go out to lunch. I felt like I ruined their vacation since I ended up getting CVS while they were still here

I've got a feeling that the next couple of weeks are going to be kinda tough. I can't wait to see our little guy again, I just want to know that he's OK in there

You look adorable!! My birthday is 12.21. I don't know many other people with my same birthday.

Thought it was time for an update... I just got home after a road trip across the country for my high school reunion. I wanted everyone at my reunion to know I was pregnant and didn't just get fat so I put a name tag on my belly too


I had so much fun even though I think I was the only one that wasn't drunk I told everyone I would get crazy at our 20 year

One of the last days of our trip I was about to go in the hot tub at our hotel and I caught a glimpse of my pregnant self in the mirror and just had to take a pic. I finally look pregnant!!!


I had to add one more pic...this is me today, I'm 18 weeks 3 days

[mom2njia]

[tobi4]

[martilynne]

So I'm officially to the half way point tomorrow I have my "big" u/s on wed morning, I don't know if I'm more excited or nervous...
