Anyone else TTC/NTNP #2 and have a LO under 1yr?

[Kirstiedenman]

Not really army lol as bad as that sounds. I have dropped 19kgs but i still have 14 to go till i reach my goal weight and i have my hands so full right now with both boys and phoenix being so unwell i dont think i would have time to squeeze in another. In the next year hunter has to have possibly 4 operations and phoenix 1 as well as both boys having asthma hunters isnt really bad but phoenix needs a nebuliser to help him breathe almost every second day i would really struggle.
I have taken tests and they have faint lines but i think they are evaps i know i should just be waiting but being a poas addict and all when i dont have a cycle to compare to its such a guessing game.
If its ib i prob wouldnt get a positive till at least tomorrow or the day after so really i am wasting my money lol. I have alot more symptoms tonight but again this coould be af returning, i feel really heavy and crampy in my lower abdomen as well as nauseous and when phoenix has fed tonight my nipples have hurt especially my right boob it actually made me say ouch out loud i really really hate the guessing game. If it is just going to be af i really hope it turns up soon instead of playing games

Yayyyy how exciting! Fx this is your month redrose!!

It has been so quiet around here lately! Everyone must be all kids of busy with the kiddies.
Its almost midnight here at the moment and i cant sleep 1 because i am really unwell with an awful fever and cough i swear im going to break a rib soon! And 2 phoenix is also really sick!! The poor kid honestly i feel as though in the 8 months since he was born he has spent more time being sick than he has not. He has a raging temp and cough which he has had a cough now for a month but they just keep putting him on steroids and the nebuliser which does control it but it doesnt stop him from getting sick so we will be back to the drs again for him tomorrow. We are so broke at the moment as well with how much time dh has had off work as i have been sick he has and phoenix its just a really rough year which sucks because this year was our yr to save we werent doing any travelling nothing but have had so much sickness it hasnt mattered sorry for the rant i just hate seeing my poor baby this way!

Well it didn't take very long in the end, baby number 3 on the way!! Amy's 1 in just over a week so will have 2 under 2 again!! Hope everyone is doing well!! Xxx

 

[Kirstiedenman]

Phoenix has been heaps better no more wheezing no more sickness it's been great!!!
And nope definitely not pregnant we have actually been using protection for the first time in the 8 years we have been together lol we have decided not to try till either mid next yr or the end of next yr. Awww hun I really feel your pain with the boys it can be so hard at times!!! Hunter constantly picks on Phoenix I feel as though I am always yelling at him it sucks!

Omg caz that's amazing news!!! Wow it happened so fast lucky you! So what will that be 3 under 4 or 3 under 3?

It has been so quiet around here lately! I am glad that some of you still come on time to time and check in!

Afm things have been really good. I have kept off 20th now for a while and still working out every week so hopefully won't be long before I am at my goal weight!
Phoenix had his first day at daycare which is sad but I am planning on going back to work in a few weeks so I am slowly transitioning him. It was awful leaving him but has been great having some one on one time with hunter!

I don't ever get any updates anymore Things have been pretty crazy here. We've planned a disney trip for November and then ttc for #3 next SUMMER!!! :hapydance: I've got a lot to work on. Sep ab muscles and a crooked pelvis etc. Seeing the chiro for it tho.

 

[CazM 2011]

thank you Kirstie!! will be 3 under 4 just lol, emma will be 2 in march then new baby may. you've done so well loosing weight, I really could do with it after this pregnancy

so jealous darlin, Disney!! went with my family a few times when I was younger and loved every minute.

 

[RedRose19]

Huge congratulations caz!

Nothing happening here af showed up today so that was like a kick in the pants but onwards and up wards! No point me crying about it. Im just waiting to get my appt with the fertility specialist now. Going to just go with the flow try continue to loose weight.
Plus im sure jamie needs me to give him all my attention because his speech ks still very little! But hes getting better he seems tl be learning a new word every few days. Which is better than before his birthday he only said mom and da

 

[Kirstiedenman]

Darlin: you poor things the abs and pelvis don't sound very nice hopefully you can get it all corrected soon!

Caz: that is crazy lol I always said I wanted the kids close together but honestly I have my hands full with the 2 at the moment the boys are just so crazy hyperactive kids!
As for the weight I am down 2 sizes which is awesome!

Redrose: I truly hope you catch that egg soon hun!! What options will you get from the fertility specialist?

 

[ArmyWife1984]

Congrats caz!!! You will be one busy mama!

Kristie that is so great you have kept the weight off! I am stuck at 170lbs down from 190lbs. it seems like no matter what i do , the scale will not budge anymore. What is your weight loss regimen?

Redrose I have the same thing over here. My stephen barely said any words. It has picked up recently. So i'm sure in a few more months as he gets closer and closer to 3 it will pick up. I bought some first word books and flashcards which has seemed to help.

 

[Darlin65]

Logan doesn't talk either lol he can but won't. He's getting better tho and repeating lots!

Anyone here cloth diaper?

 

[Kirstiedenman]

Army: i work out 5 days a week alternating a day with weights and a bit of cardio and a day of mostly cardio with core strength activities. I have a friend that i do it with and we push each other in certain areas.
I also eat very clean i have a smoothy usually for breakfast with kale and spinach and then some sort of salad for lunch and same for dinner really. I eat alot more fish and salmon than i use to and a lot less chicken. I am on holiday at the moment and because i am not eating all my usually stuff from home i have been really unwell in the stomach

Darlin: i use cloth nappies usually we are on holiday so i didnt bring them with me but normally i do why is that?
How is breastfeeding going??

How is everyone else?

Me: we are all sick AGAIN!!! hunter the poor bugger hasnt been having a day nap for ages but since being sick He has everyday and today he slept from 12:30-4:30 the poor thing.
I dont really have any other news over here other than getting back into my sewing. A friend of mine has just fallen oregnant with twins, my sil is due today with her bubs and my sister is due next march so i have been busy making blankets for everyone. Phoenix has just started walking with a walker or anything else on wheels, he has also started standing on his own and is talking, he says bobo (bottle), abye (bye), mum, hi he also waves and signs finished, amo (more) he is growing up wayyy to fast!

 

[Darlin65]

Just curious. I bought an Alva and I'm wanting to start cloth at home for Avery. Then go 100% cloth for the next baby.

We are all sick here too I've got the worst of it so far. Kids haven't had much more than a light cough on and off.

Anyone having issues potty training? Logan HATES the potty

 

[RedRose19]

Heya ladies im back to tracking my cycles and temping eeek, im also going to college next year doing a catering course, and this xmas im starting my own business! Making my own chocolates and sweets! So excited its in early days so just practising for now but so excited for the future

 

[Darlin65]

I feel frustrated that I don't have a cycle back yet I want to start tracking and preparing for #3. I'm not sure if the depo just isn't out of my system (only been a month) or if it's from ebf. When I bf DS1 I had a regular cycle tho.

Have fun with the business. i love my baking business on the side but I also hate it sometimes

 

[CazM 2011]

The injection messed up my cycles for 8+ months after stopping it, I always warm people against it! Xx

 

[Darlin65]

I only had one so I didn't think it would be too bad.

 

[Darlin65]

I originally didn't care since we aren't trying until next May at the earliest but it's actually driving me quite nuts

 

[Darlin65]

So we for the 1st time in 4m last night... And used zero protection mw said to be careful starting sept 5th bc I could ovulate at any time and my cycles could start back up. I had af when bf ds1 so I fullyexpect them to come back I just don't know when. I'm dying over here! When the boys wake up I'm going to the dollar store for a couple opks until I get some strips off amazon.
