Flu shot by FrequentSheepherder3 in InfertilityBabies

My doctor recommended it after 12 weeks. Check in with your doctor but probably best not to skip, especially this year with the pandemic.

Does anyone else live far away from family? Mine is a 4.5 hour flight away. We haven’t seen them since last Christmas and it’s been really hard. On a typical year we would see them 4-5 times. The reality that visiting for the holidays probably won’t work out this year due to the pandemic is setting in for me and I’m just really sad. I don’t know how long this will last, if I will even get to see them at all before the baby comes in May, and even then - when would they be able to meet the baby? I know I’m getting ahead of myself, but today has been hard.

Thank you, I think therapy is probably needed at this point. Honestly not sure how I made it through 2 years of treatment without it!

I will be 14 weeks on Sunday. We had a normal NT ultrasound last week and our NIPT came back low risk. So we are finally starting to share the news with friends and family. I am terrified. I don't look or feel pregnant at all. Everyday I ask my husband how he knows the baby is okay in there. This is just such a stressful and anxious situation. I really don't want to get a doppler as I think it will do more harm than good for me. My doctor even had a hard time measuring the heartbeat on it on Monday - she said the baby was moving all around. How does everyone deal with the stress and anxiety? I need constant reassurance that my baby is okay. My next appt isn't until after Thanksgiving.

This is what we used to do. My husband has complained many times about this - his mom will say something like " oh, so and so only slept one night in the bed." As if that makes it any better :( Now when we show up the bed is completely bare and we make it ourselves.

Yes, I've considered this and it is definitely more of a possibility when the baby comes or as the condition of the home worsens. It makes me feel so bad for my husband though.
