Not a damn thing. Took that week off of work just to relax and forget the world around me. Can't say I'm looking forward to another decade older.

Hello everyone! Hope you all had a good weekend....
Jaymes, I love looking at the double lines as well. Keep posting! A BFP is just such a happy sight!! And yay for a pregnant digi.
Don't worry about temping, it's meaningless now, especially considering it was the same with Lexi.
Megg, look at you go!! I'd love the first French and the Spanish level 4 or 5, if you can!! I minored in Spanish in college...I don't know why schools don't do the immersion way of teaching.
I know the foreign service does....I'll PM you my address as it's different than the year we did Christmas cards.
Dazed, I really reeeeally hope this is your cycle.
Hoping, glad you enjoyed your night away. I could just picture Penny babbling. I looooove baby talk. It's the most rewarding thing, along with baby giggles!
Awww at baby blasocyst Eloise and just conceived Penny!!!
I think Alistair was a dirty thought around this time last year, very nearly conceived.
Jen, glad you had a good scan and everything is looking great!
Hearty, your bump will come. I was getting annoyed when at 20+ weeks I was being offered alcoholic drinks at a wedding. I only gained 20 lbs the entire pregnancy, mostly at the end (but I didn't escape stretch marks). I had to laugh that you ate two desserts but "didn't want to".....I wish I had that problem!!!!!
Round, have a great time at Disneyworld!! We went two years ago...have you ever been? My favorites are the Epcot Center and the movie park....can't think of what it's called. As your'e pregnant you'll be able to do a lot at Epcot and the movie one since a lot of it is experience-based entertainment and not as much 'rides'.
Vicky, you poor thing!!! I hope your burn heals soon. When it rains it pours...but this means good things are still to come. I was reading about the riots in Athens and thought of you. How's it going?
ETA: AFM, just kind of stressed about my mom again. This time it's her physical health more than her mental health that's on the decline. I found out she's on blood pressure medication, cholesterol and triglyceride medication, pain medication for a bad back.....in addition to all of her psychological medication. It's just really unsettling. I had a dream last night she died (well, I woke up before I found out for sure
). I'm just worrying so much about her. And her attitude is really one of a quiter...she makes it sound like she'd rather die of heart disease than change her lifestyle.
On a happier note, Alistair is 3 months today. He rolled over for the first time deliberately (he's done it on accident before a few times) over the weekend, and he's started grabbing toys and putting them in his mouth just this past weekend as well. So adorable and wonderful!!!

Jen congratulations on a good scan
Round that sounds like a great idea and you all have a fantastic time at disneyworld.
Allie I went when I was about 17 and loved epcot and universal studios we went back a few years later well had a day stop of before going on somewhere else and went to mgm studios loved it. Sorry about your mum it must be so hard for you I really hope shes ok. Try not to let your dream get to you (I know its hard as bad dreams have a way of staying with us) its propbably your fears come through in your dreams Yay to Alistair rolling clever little boy its so amazing watching them learn and do all these new things. As I write this Benjamin is shoving one of his toys in his mouth and then takeing it out and talking to it, the toy is a spider. hes now ditched his toy for his feet.
Dazed good luck
Hearty the bump will come I had a small bump at 20 weeks which I was very proud of then all of a sudden at about 24 weeks I just popped I remember seeing my mum and she was like where did that come from
Nato Benjamin reflux seems to be better this week thanks I think upping his solids seems to have helped it hasnt helped him sleep more though
oh well I guess it will come.
Hoping thats so lovely you came home to smiles and babbling I love it when they chat away. Benjamin does it when steve comes home from work its so sweet. I havent left Benjamin yet manily because of not taking a bottle we're going home for Easter so going to leave him with my mum & dad and pop out for a drink or meal but somewhere local so we can grt back easily if hes not happy.
Jaymes loving those lines drop the thermeoter you are pregnant charting your temp wont help now.

Allie- sorry to hear your moms physical health is declining It makes it harder when they dont want to change. I use to go through this with my dad and I was always lecturing him about eating better and exercising but he told me he had already met his grandkids so he could die a happy man. This was before Penny so it made me really upset and I finally broke down and told him how horrible that made me feel because he hadnt met my kids and I wanted him around for that. He has been doing a lot better since and as rough as his seizure was it really gave him the kick in the butt he needed.
Hurray for Alistair rolling over.Penny still hasnt done it. She hates belly time and will roll over half way and then get stuck and start pouting. Its so amazing how active they are at this stage
Im loving it right now.
Penny will grab her toys and study them very intently like she is trying to figure out how they work and then when she gets bored she will put them in her mouth. Currently, she always has to be standing or sitting. She likes to think she is a big girl already
Lucy- I totally understand about not being able to go out when breastfeeding. Its tough but totally worth it because your giving your little guy valuable nutrition. I commend you for making it over the 6 month mark!
I lasted until about 2 ½ months and just couldnt do it anymore. Working and pumping was not fun and eventually Penny stopped wanting to breast feed. I would try when I got home from work but she would get so frustrated with me so she is now strictly on organic formula.
I hope you get to enjoy your night out on Easter! New mommies needs some much needed alone time
Jaymes its probably your little one snuggling in tight! Spotting is hard for us PAL girls. I really hope it is nothing. I had implantation bleeding at around 5 weeks... it was the only pregnancy where I had implantation spotting and it was also my only successful pregnancy Happy 4 weeks!
AFM- Penny had her first full out giggle last night! She has been laughing for weeks now but it was always more of a chuckle. Before bedtime Tim and I were playing with her and he was tickling her and she just started cracking up for a good 5 minutes. I was laughing through tears it was amazing!
We only have a few more days until our first road trip with Penny. Im excited for the rest of my family to meet her and we finally get to know her Native American name
Yesterday we had a surprise Valentines Day delivery. My sister and her kids sent us an Edible Arrangement complete with chocolate dipped strawberries. Yummy!

Popping in quickly as it's a busy day at work today. Jaymie, I had spotting at 5 weeks. Pink spotting and totally freaked me out. They couldn't tell what it was. Then at 8 weeks I had a bleed from a small blood clot. I remember you had a clot with your last pregnancy. That could be the issue OR it could be implantation bleeding. Of course it makes you sad. Try to rest as much as possible today. And drink lots of water. xoxo
Will catch up with everyone later today. Thanks for the reassurance that I will indeed get a bump! LOL!

Jaymes, I seem to bleed around that time everytime I get pregnant. I think it's very common. Did you test today? Were your lines darker? I'm sure everything is fine.
Allie, I'm sorry to hear about your mom. Hopefully she can get her physical problems under control and will be able to stop the meds soon. Yay for Allister rolling! You'll have to lock-down your house before you know it.
Lucy, I BF'd for 14 months - not on purpose. I planned to stop at 6 months but she would not take a bottle. It was hard as I couldn't go anywhere, but after she was weaned, I really missed it.
Hoping, aren't the giggles so sweet? I love that sound.
Congrats Jenny!!
Dazed, hope you get a super sticky v-day baby!
Nato, did I write the wrong number again? I did it somewhere else too. My odds are 1 in 17000. That's not too crazy is it??
I had my hematologist appointment today. He walked in the room, looked at me and got all sad because he thought I had another loss! Good grief, I'm even wearing my 'very preggo' looking shirt today. Anyways, stardard protocol is to double my injections now! So I'm poking myself twice a day. Oh well, the things we do for kids!!
Happy Valentine's to you Megg...and everyone else.

Thanks Hoping its been tought at times but Im proud of myself that I have managed to BF and I got to the 6 months marks. Ive pretty much given up with pumping It was hardwork and then it would stress me out if we had to dump the milk.
Round wow I had 6 months as the point I wanted to get to I thought by then I would just want to stop but Im happy to carry on but I think we are going to try and get him onto formula (not quite sure how) as I think Im going to have to go back to work before he's 1
so need to get him taking milk from a cup or sonething. Hes doing well with solids so hoping in afew months he'll naturally drop some feeds and I'll keep a morning and evening feed well thats kind of the plan Im not even sure how to start introducing formula the hv are useless just tell me theres no need to but I know I wont be able to pump enough milk to keep hin going when I go back to work.
Jaymes there good lines. I know how scary spotting can be try not to worry Im sure its implantation bleeding.

Luce, I had no luck with formula at all. My kid was super stubborn. I went back to work at 12 months, but I continued to BF in the morning and evenings till 14 months. We had no choice but to give her milk at 10 months out of a sippy cup (I think you're suppose to wait until a year). When she started daycare, she was just barely drinking - but once she saw all the other kids doing it she picked it up right away. Try not to stress about it, I really believe that if he's thirsty enough he will drink.
Jaymes, I'd say you have nothing to worry about. Those lines are beautiful!!

Thanks guys for all the words of encouragement. I know that it is probably the same thing I had with Lexi and I need to not stress about it! Good news is I've talked DH into letting me stay home for a bit. I'll be working today, but after that Lexi and I will be able to happily play and spend more time together.

Ok, finally am catching up!
Jaymie, anymore spotting? What color was it? When are you seeing your doctor? Your tests look amazing. You are definitely preggo and your levels are rising! I hope you stopped temping. Its meaningless now.
Dazed, what is your derail fertility trick? Inquiring minds want to know! Im impressed with your OPK restraint. I constantly want to pee on things. Oh, that sounds a little disgusting.
Sassy, happy 25 weeks!
Hoping, I smiled when I read about Penny baby talking telling you about her girls night with grandma. Sooo cute! Glad you got some time out. I think thats important for a marriage. Baby giggles are the best sound ever.
Nato, Im ready to be scared of myself! LOL! I really just want a bump by 20 weeks when my mom is visiting.
Allie, its so sad that your mom isnt more invested in her health. Im assuming shes at least taking her meds though. That would indicate that shes not a complete quitter. I dont blame you for being worried. Its so frustrating that we cant make the people we love make better choices. How wonderful that you have this precious boy to focus your attention on though. Well done on the rolling over! I had a peek at your pictures! So funny to me, that bridge looks awfully familiar! LOL! I forget its a tourist attraction since I see it every day!
Lucy, Ben sounds like an active boy. Toys and feet in mouth! Yum! I have no advice on BF but it sounds like you are doing a great job.
Round, 2 pokes a day? Ouch! All in the name of love! What are you injecting yourself with?
Hows everyone else? Megg? Vicky? Sparkly?
AFM, Im counting the days (7) until my next doctors appointment. Ive been feeling concerned about this adenomyosis. Everytime I stop progesterone for 3 days, I feel it acting up. Progesterone is supposed to deactivate adeno, which is why women are usually symptom free in pregnancy. Its freaking me out that I can feel it every time I try to wean off of it. Does that mean my body isnt producing enough? So I end up popping another suppository every 3 days and the pain goes away. The good news is that I hear the hb every day and its always in the 150-160 range.

Jaymes- your lines are looking great!!!
Allie- I will take a look at your journal
Lucy I'm sorry you have to go back to work before Ben is 1 but at least you still have a few more months! Enjoy them
Round- how are you and the little guy doing? Do you have any names picked out?
Hearty- I hope the 7 days fly by so you can get some reassurance. Definitely read the article I sent you. I read some others while pregnant but I can't remember what they were. I'll post the link for the other preggos incase they are interested https://www.tidesoflife.com/superbaby.htm

I'm doing okay Hoping. Still have issues with reflux, but things have been better this week.
I'm so bummed! Please tell me if I'm be overly-hormonal here, but my SIL has invited herself and her family along on our vacation to Florida next month and I'm really upset about it. I love my SIL to death, but I was really looking forward to spending some time alone with my family. The last few years have been so hard and I want time to reconnect, heal and celebrate. My SIL has been through alot this year too (more detail in my journal) and part of our stress has been worrying about her. So I was looking forward to getting away from all our problems. I feel so guilty about feeling this way, but I can't help it, I've been in tears all day.

Round you aren't being hormonal. I would feel the same way. How did the conversation go? How did she invite herself? How did you respond?
I think the best tactic is to be very honest with her. I haven't read your journal and don't know what she's been through, but you might want to say something like, I love you dearly and am rooting for you all the time. But I also need some time alone with my husband and child to connect with them before this baby comes. If you do come to Florida, please don't get upset when we take a few days to ourselves. We really need this time together after all that we've been through.
Is it possible to say something like that? It's your right to have this trip be the way you want it to be. xoxo

Round- I'm glad your week is better besides the reflux & SIL inviting her self on your trip. I don't think your hormones are to blame for the way you feel. Your feelings are very valid and if you wanted the company you would have invited her. Could your DH call her and explain that your family needs some much needed alone time? I'm sure she will understand after all you have been through
