So sad. I pray for a miracle.

 

[kcw81]

Yeah it is really so unfair. I don't know how Cat is even managing I wonder about whether she sleeps or eats or if she is still in recovery from her procedure.

 

[caz & bob]

praying hard hope she proves them all wrong come on bby girl x x x

 

[SBB]

It is devastating... I still can't get my head around what's happened and how cat and Aaron must be coping.

Verna I'm glad you had a lovely time

Good Luck Caz hun, we have to get lucky soon
I saw my FS yesterday and he wants me to hold off until after my heart procedure before we start ttc but he did tell me that he doesnt believe my tube is blocked. He said our plan will be Clomid and injectibles for three months if that doesnt work then we move to IVF.

I can't even begin to believe this has all happened to Cat, it is just simply not fair.
She is an amazing woman and we don't know why things happen to good people.
All we can do is be there for her, Continue showing her support, Now we need to get her a spa day, she is going to need it.

Hug those beautiful babies!

Verna- that's good,right? Wasn't there laproscopy that showed the tube was blocked tho?

Just fed Connor almost 7 oz after 10hrs of straight sleep. Little piggy. Then stood there and watched him fall back asleep on his tummy after talkin and sucking on his hand for 20 minutes. So precious!

 

[Peach Blossom]

Aw bless him Chell. What a great sleeper! and eater! I can't get Lili to take more than 4oz on a good day!

Oh my... I've been having quite a few laughs reading this:

Apparently my inlaws are not the only crazy ones out there :Rofl:

 

[kcw81]

Lilli is small so maybe it makes sense she doesn't want that much JEss! I can't imagine 7 oz fitting in her belly!

Chell that is great about Connor!

Lisa inlaws are annoying, its their nature! We might be too but I am going to try not to.

I donated my excess milk that I won't use from april, may and some of June last night. It was informal I found the girl through my old lactation consultant. Her milk supply dried up when she went to work and really wants breast milk for her baby so it worked out. I am glad someone can use the milk! I think we gave about 320 oz, which is only 10 days of milk if the baby eats 30 oz a day but I Think she is partly on solids so hopefully they can make it last.

Verna that is good news they think your tube isn't blocked! good call on waiting till afte the surgery to ttc since you have to be drugged and stuff.. are you scared ?

 

[lisaf]

good job donating milk Casey... I still have to get off my ass and arrange a pick-up to donate my extra.
I don't know how much to let go of.. I am still producing more than he needs, plan on BFing for a while, but I'm kind of paranoid to give up too much in case my supply dwindles or something

 

[kcw81]

I know! I was paranoid too! my dh assured me we would have to toss it if I didnt give it - but still paranoid!

 

[lisaf]

lol... I wish I could reduce my supply a bit, but I enjoy the luxury of having the extra so I never have to worry about having enough bottles for the next day.
Honestly, I'd love to drop the evening pump... he doesn't eat at that time anyway and if I wasn't pumping, I would have just adjusted already. But it hurts SOOOO bad to go 11 hours between feeding/pumping that I just can't bring myself to do it.
I would drop a daytime pump, but I want to be able to BF on weekends, so I don't want to reduce my daytime supply. UGH

Oh, and I almost dropped Daniel yesterday I was getting him out of the car, had a few bags over one shoulder. I held him facing-out with my hand over his crotch and his chest across my fore-arm... as I swung the car-door shut, he almost toppled over my arm head-first Felt like a bad mom... he would have fallen on the pavement/curb on his head!
(I know nothing actually happened, but that feeling as his weight shifted and he almost fell from my arms is still haunting me... I have a feeling it will stick with me like my fear of stepping on him when he's on the floor in our house)

 

[kcw81]

Yeah we are sure to have many many close calls like that in the future so hope u can get ready to deal with that haunting a little easier each time!

 

[kcw81]

11 hours is a long time between pumps lisa - it will probably make your supply go down a little if you drop that one but it is SOO freeing to drop a pump!

 

[lisaf]

Right now I pump at 6am when I get up for work... pump at 10am, pump at 2pm, then BF at 7pm and pump at 10pm before bed....
Daniel eats 5 bottles while I'm away from him during the day. I don't think I can drop daytime pumping without hurting the chance to feed him on weekends (especially when we want to go out and about).
I know it used to hurt a lot to go 6 hours between feeds, so maybe the 11 hour thing will get better?

I've also decided I HAVE to pump when I wake up on the weekends... when I try to feed Daniel, he ends up overfed for the first 2-3 feeds of the day and pukes a lot... if I pump then I'm more comfortable, he pukes less.. everyone's happy, lol. It just sucks to have to wake up instead of doing a lazy feed in bed

 

[kcw81]

Yeah I mean if u can pump after you bf at 7 to be fully drained I bet u could drop the 10. Takes a few days to a week to get used to it. A week prob. Then bf and pump full at 6.

 

[Smile4me]

I'm not scard... I'M TERRIFIED!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[kcw81]

The 10 am pump is also an intruder. If you pumped at 6 with bf I bet you could eventually drop the 10am too.
