Hi Everyone!
I'm not even sure where wrote in last so I know I am missing some stuff!
Happy belated bday ladyl!!!! I hope you had a relaxing day and I'm glad you got some cake! Can't wait to hear about your scan!
Lilrojo, sorry you missed the egg last month
I hope this month is it for you! TTC sounds so fun again but I had forgotton how horrible it is to have to wait another whole month before testing again!! I wish our cycles were two weeks total. That would be much more doable. Good luck this month!!
Working, how strange that you are getting positive opks. ANy idea why? Could you have delayed ovulation, or could you maybe be pregnant already?!?!? Looking forward to hearing the results- fingers are crossed for you!
Trixie when you do test?? Bloating and bloody nose!! Two very good signs!!! can't wait to hear! Can't believe everyone is ttc again!! Where has the time gone?? Is conor walking? Does life get harder when they walk?? Oh I have a question for you. As a HV, do you check head circumference. I measured giadas and she is over the 100th percentile. i had read that it is not a concern unless it grows very fast, and hers did from like 2-4 months. She jumped from like 50th percentile to 100th percentile, but so did her height. Her height is also above 100th percentile. I have to take her soon to the pediatrician, but was wondering if it was only a concern if it didn't match her height. Not sure if you guys even measure head circumference but I thought I'd ask in case you do!
Claire so glad things are going well with dh! ANd so glad you are enjoying work. I miss work, but I don't miss the commitment to it! Darcey is quite the chatterbox!! Giada doesn't say ANY words yet! She says mama and dada, but not to us. I try to get her to say mama, and she mimics my mouth movements and at first nothing comes out and then baba comes out lol. I think we have a ways to go. She's a lot like dh who was late at everything, so I need to be patient!
Dreamer how are you? I hope you are having a wonderful time! I think you asked why I was tracking my cycles. I have a cervical ectropian which causes me to bleed all through the two week wait sometimes, so it was so hard to figure out my cycle. The month before last dh forgot to pull out and I was pretty sure it was ovulation day so I was kinda freaking out. (would have been happy to get a bfp, but not the best timing right now) After tracking it this month I think I was right about my ovulation time, and we may have gotten it on the day or just missed it by a day. No bfp so either way it was fine, but it was weird to test again!
How are you hispirits? THanks for the words of encouragment. I feel better about things as giada seems to progress, she has just been a bit late with a few of the things. I get worried that she will never do them, but then she always does. Patience is a virtue I guess..I wish I had more lol! HOw are you feeling?? You are getting close!!!
Giada has taken a few small steps over the past few days, so I assume that will progress over the next month. She still needs six bottles a day, equaling about 40 oz. I tried to cut her down and she was waking up every other night. I know a few times it was from teething, but other nights she was just hungry. Before cutting her down to 5 bottles she hadn't woken up once at night for about 6 weeks. She eats a bunch at meal time, especially lunch and dinner, so I am just going to keep her at 6 right now and see what the dr says. She seems pretty healthy and happy so I can't imagine that continuing for a bit longer like this will cause problems. I assume as she eats more during the day that she will not take as much milk. I guess I'll have to wait and see. Either way if she is going to want a bottle I'd rather give it to her during the day than middle of the night!!
HOpe everyone else is well. I am suffering from terrible allergies and have developed a cough from it. Allergies are known to be horrible where I live and every time it rains I get an attack, and this time it rained and then the winds picked up. Hoping they will calm down soon. Hope everyone else is avoiding the cold/flu that is going around too!
Planning to test this weekend, if I can hold out that long
