Thanks marathon girl, you should have seen me last week though, I was a wreck and had no positivity lol!! All I can do now though is hope and pray, theres nothing that can be done by me crying and stressing out like I was last week. If the worst happens I will have to cope with it but for now I am going to remain happy and enjoy my time with the hobbit. I have been talking to him daily now and I have found its made me a bit happier, I think I was distancing myself to protect myself but I dont want to look back and regret how I felt, whether this is a successful pregnancy or not I know I will regret it if all I do is worry and cry, there needs to be some happy memories from this pregnancy. PMA ladies, this time we will do it and have the rainbow babies we deserve xxxxxxxxxx
I love this entire quote! This:
"All I can do now though is hope and pray, theres nothing that can be done by me crying and stressing out like I was last week. If the worst happens I will have to cope with it but for now I am going to remain happy and enjoy my time with the hobbit." is exactly what I thought when I left my Peri's office this morning. I adore this group so much and so thankful I have this group to turn to!!
Rainkat~ That is so awesome and yay for seeing your little one!!!
Roma~ Thinking of you and sending lots of positive thoughts and hugs.
Cherry~ Good luck tomorrow!
Kara~ Good thoughts for your scan coming up!
Marathon~ Hope your day goes by fast so you can get comfortable at home.
Sounds like you've got a great acupuncturist.
Tawn~ I hope the next few weeks go by quickly so you can post your scan pic!
Bailey~ I asked about it and my doctor said we could discuss aspirin after surgery but he didn't see an indication for me needing it though.
Treated myself to acupuncture over the weekend, she was happy about the progress I've made since my last visit. Still have a pale tongue I have to work on but really enjoyed it. She gave me some instructions to follow until I can see her again. I made an appointment to go over cerclage options and ended up with an unexpected scan. Little one looked good and measured well, even my cervix looked better than expected. The downside is insurance will not cover a TAC or TVCIC (the highest cerclage types available) since I haven't had a standard cerclage or any other surgery that may warrant a higher suture. So my Peri and I had a long talk, he was reassuring and made as many accommodations in my favor as possible so I won't have to travel so often. The plan is a double McDonald placed at 12 and a half weeks, 17p shots sent closer to home at 16 weeks, and I'm welcome to walk in anytime for reassurance.
I've been doing acupuncture since last year. My acupuncturist was concerned because having a pale tongue usually indicates low iron levels. She was right, my iron was and still is on the low side. So I have to be more diligent in eating foods with more iron.
