update on me

Charmian · 03-01-2009, 10:59 AM

I am 16wks 5 days today.....the exact time in my pgy where I prom'd with Joshua...heck it was even a Sunday! I just want today to be over. I know that even if I make it past today it doesn't give me a 100% guarantee that everything will be fine, but I know that I will feel a lot better! My next goal is 20 wks and then 24....it seems easier when I break it down into chunks like that.
Other then the nerves, everything else seems to be going well...no further bleeding since I updated last (on aug dd board) and everything has been rather uneventful. (just the way I like it) Starting tomorrow I am on restricted duties at work. I manage a call centre for an extremely busy mortgage company and the job is very stressful and keeps me on my feet A LOT! My boss actually came to me and said they wanted to give me something less stressful! So as of tomorrow all of my direct reports will be reporting to another manager, and I will spend the rest of my pgy working on projects for my VP. This will keep my pretty much just at my desk.

Next ob appt is on March 10th and 18 wks unless I feel the need to go in before that for a hb check, but so far I am doing pretty good.

Good Golly! I'm so glad everything is going well!!! I know how scarey *dates* can be during a pregnancy after a loss. It's almost haunting. Rest a sure your lil Angel Joshua is watching over you and his sibling.
I'm glad you have set small goals for this pregnancy, it does make everything go by faster and smoother. Please keep us updated!!!

Hang in there. I remember when I hit that day with Joey-that Abby was born and died...I was scared to death. The next day I woke up (I was on hospital bedrest) and told myself "This is the longest I have ever been pregnant"

I also broke the time into smaller chunks. It helped a lot.

Please continue to post your updates. I don't frequent FT anymore, but have been trying to check in here, now and again to see how you're doing. (((hugs)))

Charmian! I didn't know you were pg!

I am so happy for you! I know it's nerve-wracking to be pregnant after a loss, but I am hoping that you will have a LONG pregnancy and a healthy little boy to bring home at the end.
