1st m/c January, 2nd m/c May, still trying for 3rd BFP

[starry83]

Hi ladies! Hope your all doing well.

Manny he is so gorgeous!! What a cute little face. Glad that he is so happy and healthy, you sound like your absolutely loving motherhood!

Jessica is 8 weeks yesterday and had her jabs today it was so horrible. But aside from that she's a very happy little girlie. I had to have antibiotics at about 4-5 weeks and was advised to stop breast feeding for 5 days and once I put her back on the breast she didn't want to know! It was too much like hard work! Haha. She sleeps really well, usually 8 hrs or so through the night up for a feed then back down for another 3 hours which is great! I have to go back to work when Jessica is 5 months too and I'm dreading it. I would happily give my career up to be a full time mummy but our finances don't allow for that at the minute, one day hopefully. I can't believe you want another so soon manny, that's great! I'm desperate to be pregnant again, I look back on it so fondly but we are going to wait until Jessica is over a year old I think.

Anyway hope everyone else is doing well, look forward to hearing updates xx

Ahhh he's lovely Manny And such good sleeping! Nia is exactly the same too 7-7 most nights, sometimes a feed at 5, sometimes straight til 7. The only tricky bit is trying to get her back to sleep after that feed but it's mostly successful!

How much do your babies weigh? Nia is 15lb at 12 weeks! Little fatty. Starry I personally think that's bad about being told not to bf-why was that? Obviously there must have been a good reason. Stick to bfing tho if YOU want to as she will get used to it again-babies are fickle little creatures ;-)

I definitely would love another baby and miss being pregnant terribly-I absolutely adored it. I wonder if a second pregnancy would ever match up?! Bazz-you will have this joy soon, and if the first pregnancy cannot be beaten then you lucky thing as you have it to come :-D How are you getting on?

Nia's had her first jab too Starry-I cried more than she did! But she slept im my arms for almost the whole day-I really cherished it actually and apart from the obvious pain to poor boo am looking forward to more cuddles ha ha! I'm a bit tired and starving so this is probably sounding a bit wrong and cruel!

Nia goes to baby massage which is lovely and she enjoys it for the most part until she's too tired or wants a feed.

She's fast asleep after a long feed so I better go and put her to bed. Hope you are all well!! Xxxx

Ps does my signature know something I don't??!! Ha ha!!!!

 

[xoxo4angel]

1983 hahaaa about your signature!

Glad the babies are doing well...I'm super jealous that they sleep through the night! I'm lucky to get a 4 hour stretch of sleep! And the vaccines are the pits! I was a wreck! Pierce did have a fever the next day and was quite fussy, poor fella. To top his vaccines off, I had mastitis (caught early treated w/ antibiotic). We were both quite miserable that weekend, but we pulled through!

Oh Manny Joshua is so handsome! Hope work is going well.

Starry. Hope you are doing well

Bazz ~ any news??

Hi ladies,may I join?I too had 2 miscarriages and waiting for 3rd BFP.Its been almost an year since my last MC.Did my 2nd IUI this month which ended in BFN.I will be visiting the doctor soon for our next month planning.

 

[mannymoo]

Hi Ladies. Welcome TTCMoon. Welcome to the thread. Really hope you get some good luck very soon. It is such a rollercoaster ride of emotions when you are TTCAL. But we are here for you. When will you see your doctor and will you be trying IUI again?

A1983 - love the signature! Did it just reset itself? Maybe it does know something you don't... lol.

Jabs are really the pits. Not sure how it works there but in South Africa, they have to have so many vaccinations for all sorts of things. It has been a nighmare but fortunately we dont have any now until he is 9 months old. How does it work there?

Bazz - any news from you?

xx

 

[starry83]

Hi everyone!

Welcome to the thread ttcmoon, they really are a lovely bunch of supportive ladies here and I do hope that your next docs appointment goes well and you get the bfp very soon!

Manny, in the uk they have to have vaccinations at 8, 12, and 16 weeks, Then more again when they are a year old and so on... quite a hectic schedule of jabs

1983, they told me to stop bf as the antibiotics I was on were not safe apparently, as the urine infection I had was a rare one. But when I told the midwife she went mad and said that the doctor should never have told me that. Anyway Jessica was 12lbs 3oz at 8 weeks! She's got proper chunky little legs, I love them! I love your sig, brilliant!

Bazz, how are you getting on?

How are all you other ladies?

When I get time I will attach some pics, just need to get them off my phone.

xx

 

[A1983]

Yeah send some of those chunk legs Starry! Nia's a proper chunky monkey too-the places and folds to clean under are endless ;-) Are you back to bfing ok now?

Angel-can we offer any tips for the sleeping? What is your routine if you have one? Mastitis is horrible-I had the beginnings of it but nipped it in the bud luckily after googling what to do-lots of feeding from that side, massage, heat and pain killers.

Welcome ttcmoon, these ladies are so amazingly supportive and yes we'll help you through this and congratulate you when you get your bfp...and then help you through the roller coaster pregnancy stage! Losing a baby is the most painful thing-but with the right support it can make the journey to ttc again and all the emotions that follow that little bit more bearable-you can do it x Keep us updated! When we were all ttc and pregnant we would post lots! But we'll try to reply as quickly as we can

Ha ha no, my signature would mean it was a miraculous conception! I still haven't braved the deed yet-too nervous! And too tired!

 

[xoxo4angel]

Grrr! I typed and it disappeared! I'm all thumbs lately!

TTCMoon Sorry for your losses. Here for you if and when you need us. FX'd!

Bazz ???

A1983 ~ I have a bed time routine w/ Pierce. Between 6-7p Bath time, then a book...he is quite chatty at this hour, so I engage lightly with him. He nurses often before dozing off. I'm lucky to get 3 hour stretches of sleep (4 hours between feedings). He weighs nearly 16lbs now, I would think he could sleep longer w/ so much chub to sustain him Meanwhile, I look forward to the night I get 5+ straight hours!

As for vaccines, here in the US they get 3 shots & an oral dose at 2, 4 & 6 months I'm already dreading Dec!

Post pics of the babies. Hope everyone is well xoxo

 

[starry83]

Hi Ladies

Hope your all doing well? Said I would share some pics of Jessica when I got the chance so here she is. She's such a little cutie but she has a cold at the minute and I feel so sorry for her

Anyway hope everybody and their babies are doing well xxx

 

[mannymoo]

Starry she is too precious. Looks like such a happy little girl. xx

 

[xoxo4angel]

Jessica is a cutie!! So precious!

Big hugs to the babies ladies!

Bazz how are things w/ you?

 

[ttcmoon]

Starry - Jessica is too cute...May God bless her.

ladies I hope, all are doing well.Thanks for the warm welcome.I could not check this thread for sometime as I was a bit busy with Diwali celebration.I have decided to give IUI another try.
Tomorrow is my IUI!Yesterday was cd13 and I had 3 mature follicles of - 19mm,18.5mm and 18mm.I got the hcg trigger at night.My RE is still not happy with my lining though.It was 9mm yesterday but the appearance is patchy rather.
I am still keeping my hopes up.I have seen so many "perfect" cycles failing for me.So I just hope this not so perfect one does the trick.I need blessings and prayers from each one of you

 

[bazzb]

Xxx

 

[A1983]

Hope you're ok Bazz xxx

Yeah all good this end! Starry your lo looks a teeny bit like mine in your picture! I'll post some more pics soon. Nia's still a fab sleeper, such a contented little girl (I say this now-it's very different in those first weeks huh!) She's 17lb, 19 weeks and loves lights! Anything with lights on she stares at and my arms ache from lifting her up to touch certain things! I give her some foods on the end of my spoon sometimes, only so she can taste them although I panicked when she sucked a bit too hard on a satsuma segment and the whole thing almost went in!

She's still not rolling yet-when she's on her back she just kicks and plays! But I'd say she's very good with her hands and holds things/picks things up really well. She can also stand whilst holding onto my fingers for quite a while too! I'm taking lots of video's as it's only when you look back and see how much they've grown and changed in such a short space of time you realise how precious they are.

How's everyone else? X

 

[xoxo4angel]

How is everyone?? Happy New Year! How are the babies?

Bazz any news?

 

[A1983]

1983 ~ She is such a doll!! I saw them the other day and thought I posted in here I'm jealous that she sleeps so well for you! Pierce still gets up 2x at night. He nurses and quickly goes back to sleep, but I still have to get up!

Starry & Manny ~ hope the babies are well! Any urges for ttc #2?

Bazz ~ Thinking of you!
