light hearted ttc

wow its been 12 days already...time sure flies. I wish I knew how much my baby is eating...I would pump in a bottle but he wouldnt take it.

I am beyond exhausted. I'm taking an online math class and class just started on 4/1. Today is 4/4 and the teacher expects us to complete 37 problems. I mean seriously, she should give us a week since we have other classes. Usually the first week should be an introductory week. I got almost half finished and now calling it quits since I am seriously tired. Oh well, Im just going to lose the 10 pts and work on next week's problems instead. I've been neglecting Zachary the whole day cuz I was too busy trying to complete the problems.

I finally got to chat with my husband today. We even skyped to he could see me and Zachary. We spent 2 hours chatting. It was nice. Cant wait for him to be back.
 
i love math but 37 seems like alot, Domenic is over 11lbs already thats one pound gained from his birth weight, he was 9lbs 10 ozs 2 weeks ago when discharged from the hospital
 
He's a big guy! Did he skip the newborn clothes? Zachary turned 5 months yesterday (3 months adjusted) and he is still fitting in some 0-3 clothing.

I really cant wait until my period comes back. I've been having back pain and pain in my right ovary. Once again, I'm wondering if I am pregnant, but I am too lazy to go buy a pregnancy test. There's only me and Zachary and I dont want to bring him out in this awful weather just to go buy a pregnancy test. For once I wish my period would return so that I can rule out pregnancy each month instead of having to go buy a pregnancy test.
 
yeah newborn diapers didn't fit he was right in size one and same with the clothing a lot of his newborn stuff didn't fit
 
Hi guys! On my way back home. I'm sad my vacation is over :( It wasn't long enough! No idea when I'll get to go back to see them.
 
Ashley - did you go to Canada? How was it? How did Cassidy do? I'm also planning to go to Canada this summer, but wanted to know if its worth the trip.
 
It's always sad when the hols are over but it gives you something to look forward to for your next hol!

Update: Well I had loadsa stringy CM tuesday/wednesday. We dtd on wed night (I think it's prob too late tho-we did dtd on Monday night but didn't finish cos of various reasons). I'm now experiencing creamy CM, my lower back aches and my womb area feels as tho it is trying to stretch but it can't -like a stitch? I don't know.

What do you ladies think? I feel different but I can't help but think that i'm being stupid and I've got no chance! :-S

xox
 
Katie - I recall having quite a bit of stringy cm when I was pregnant with Zachary. That was one of the first symptoms that got me to test. With that being said, I think you should just do a pregnancy test to be sure.

The weather is horrible over here and I am stuck doing hw. So much homework, I think I'm gonna die! Tomorrow marks the end of the first week that my dh has been gone. Zachary has been napping for at least an hour. The weather has been so bad lately that I havent gone out for grocery shopping. As a result, I am just eating whatever I can find in the house.
 
What course are you doing kitty? :-) just think it will all be worth it in the end! :-)

here is Domenic on Sat he was 2 weeks old :) my wee man
 
2 weeks already!? wow hes grown so fast.. has it really been that long? :haha:

The drive was LONG if it was just us it wouldn't be that bad but with a baby who gets tired of sitting its hard.

I'm hoping we can do it again but it'll be fall atleast... hopefully not all the way til next year though.
 
Ashley - you drove? How long did it take?

Christie - He is absolutely adorable!
 
12-13 hours... but on the way up we split it up 5 hours first evening, then 8ish the next, going down it was more 7ish the first day and then 6 the next.

My DH is away for the next couple days on a business trip :( lonely!! I miss my family.
 
Ashley - At least he's only away for a few days. My husband wont be home for another 2.5 weeks. How often did you stop with Cassidy? Also did you and Cassidy carry a passport to enter Canada? I really wanna go next month but unsure of what documents I need to bring along to pass the border. Its only a 6 hour drive from where we live.

Zachary finally fits nicely into his 3-6 month clothing. He can still fit into some 0-3 month clothing, but most of it I will need to store away. For some reason, he's able to fit nicely into shirts but the pants are saggy on him. The length of the pants is good too, but he just doesnt have the width to prevent the pants from sagging. I wonder how I can fatten him up. He weighs 14 lbs now.

I also just found out that my older sister is pregnant again with her 5th child...which I feel is ridiculous. She is 32 but is still living the wild life. She parties a lot...and I mean A LOT, and always leave the kids with their grandma. She doesnt even take good care of them, their clothes is always messy, and they always get hurt from horsing around but she doesnt care. To be honest, I dont think she is that motherly, but she keeps popping them out. I hope she will consider stopping from having more children when this one comes along.
 
If you're in the US and its by ground travel you just need a birth certificate, if its by flying you'll need a passport, yeah we looked into that because I figured getting a passport for a baby is kinda crazy since they expire so quickly!

We didn't stop nearly as much as we should have!! So I think that was part of Cassidys problem, but I think partly my DH just wanted to drive to get it over with, we stopped maybe 2-3 times.
Yeah Cassidy is like that with her clothes, I find with shirts shes usually in the bigger size, then pants smaller, and they never fit... perfectly hah

Aww that sucks about your sis!

AFM... another warm day! I plan on picking some spinach from the garden and maybe some carrots :)
I finally got to chat with my DH last night... at like 1030 at night.. I was so tired!!
 
we r on our way to the childrens hospital with domenic, he lost a pound in 6 days we thought reflux but hes getting worse with vomitting and not pooping, hopfully we dont have stay over night to many days
 
I hope Domenic is ok, let us know.
I hope you are all well.
Darcy is doing well although the 7/8 hour sleeps are out the window 😞 Last night she was awake every hour! He kept spitting out her soother so I had to keep putting it back in. She then woke at 5 so I fed her, she then filled her nappy so I changed her and put her in her cot in her nursery. She lasted 2 hours with a couple of wake up...a record for her!
She is just too big for her Moses basket and keeps hitting her head so we are putting her in her cot in her room over night tonight. My girls growing up!!
I had her weighed yesterday, she is now 13lb 9oz at 18 weeks.
 
Here's an updated photo of Darcy...
