I didnt announce it publically until today after our u/s

this is a complete surprise miracle baby as dh and I only dtd 1 time that month and several days before I was to "o"

I'm still very nervous as we saw the hb 3 times of the first m/c

going to get my doppler back from a friend soon so thatll help ease my mind a bit

This is just how it is for you" and all the negative thoughts crowd in and it's hard to not freak out :/

How are things going today, Marie? still sending for that girlie to stay put for the long term.

Hoping we get to talk to the MFM doc as well to figure out what the plan is for the next few (last!) weeks.

Last?! Yikes! I can't believe everyone is moving along and getting so close. I know I say that all the time... but seriously!

Glad things are looking good still!

Erica! I am very happy to see you here. Many for a healthy sticky babe in there!

It was miserable at 3am the other night, but now it's funny. I did it again last night too, but at least I was smart enough to wear a pp pad to bed, so that's all that was injured in last night's coughing episode. Laugh away... that's what I'm doing right now (but crossing my legs while I do!!)

3 contractions today, but they were wimpy ones. Feeling her higher so I'm glad she decided to get her feet away from my cervix!

Both good things!
move your ticker! I keep seeing it and freaking out, then remembering that it's supposed to be much further along, lol.

Yay! I'm go happy it is better. Stay in there little one!!

AFM: I had a cortisone injection on my SI joint on Tuesday. I already feel amazingly better!!! Now I'm only having issues with sciatic nerve issues which is about 80% less of a problem than the SI joint issues! I go for the big ultrasound on wednesday morning. Hmmm boy or girl?? I guess we will see. I'm 18 weeks and the time is going so fast. I can't believe how quick it is going. I'm starting to get nervous about getting things ready. :/ how am I already almost half way?!?

How is everyone?

Cervix is:

14w---7.5 (curved)
16w--- 5.5 (curved)
18w--- 3.9 (straight)
20w--- 4.0 (straight) 5.25 (curved)

doc thinks it was longer at 14w because my uterus was more tilted forward causing it to fold so, other than that, apparently its staying fairly stable and LONG! Despite the contractions---which were watching closely since they haven't caused changes yet and the progesterone should keep me protected more now.

Again, is it may yet? The roller coaster is exhausting. I need a nap!
