light hearted ttc

[AC1987]

awww Lily, arguments are awful, and in the heat of the moment sometimes hurtful things can be said. I hope you two can make up though I know how stressful it is when you just want a break from your baby, I mean I love Cassidy but seriously at the end of the day I just want some ME time, like I understand how husbands hafta go to work and blah blah.. but still us mothers who hafta stay home all day need some help too


Patrice, wow long cycle!! I wonder why it goes so long?


AFM, getting together with friends today so cleaning the place up, well I mean its usually clean but cluttery if you know what I mean so anyways I'm sweeping the kitchen floor like I always do, as I'm bending down using the dust pan and broom I see this white wiggly like worm thing... then I look and see about 20+ of them.. to this point I'm freaking out, maggots YUCK!!! so I get my hubby to come clean it up as I can't I was just so grossed out. We think a fly musta laid some eggs in our garbage or beside it or something. But *gags* it grossed me out SO much!! So I swept a 2nd time after he was finished then mopped with bleach so I HOPE that cleaned it up.

 

[magicwhisper]

wow how strange

oh i still at the stag do he has gone paint balling so he will be covered in bruises

 

[mzswizz]

Ashley-Well the reason why my cycle is long is because I have yet to ov and I guess my body just trying its best.

 

[AC1987]

I wish someone else would get pregnant it feels lonely this time around, I've tried joining various groups on here with people due around the same time as me, only no one talks to me

 

[magicwhisper]

awh we are all trying

 

[mzswizz]

trust me when I say that we are joining the race to get a bfp.

AFM, im cd41 today and my temp took a complete nose dive today Hopefully its ov time finally. But once again, will have to wait until to see what the next 2 days' temps look like. Not getting my hopes up this time so we shall see. If it is ov..then we bd'd enough to try and catch the egg. If it's not, then I will be waiting for my appt. to see what happens. Well that's it for now.

 

[hello_kitty]

Patrice - still no af? Hopefully you will ovulate soon! Have you gone to your appointment yet?

Ashley - Hopefully I will join you soon! I'm kinda 50/50 right now. I just dont feel the rush that I did with Zachary! Only when af arrives I smack myself on the head and tell myself "darn it, I missed the chance". Last month we only dtd once, so its nearly impossible to get pregnant.

I am pretty sure Zachary has caught something. He has been gagging continously that results in throwing up. It smells so bad and thick. He also appears to be more tired than usual. He's usually active, but somehow now he just looks overly tired. I am definitely taking him to the pedi tomorrow.

Well, today is cd 3 for me!

 

[mzswizz]

Lily-No af still. and no I haven't gone to my appt. yet...its on September 4th. wish it was sooner though.

 

[boxxey]

the wedding party all the kids are mine except the one in glasses

Domenic is 5 months old now

My oldest 2 Emma and Jake

 

[boxxey]

I hope all is well with everyone, sorry im not on all the time anymore 5 kids keep me busy

 

[hello_kitty]

Patrice - not that far away! Cant wait to hear updates!

Christie - your children are gorgeous. Dominic is getting so big now!

So ladies, I would appreciate some advice. What do you do if you would like to have another baby but dont feel like dtd with the husband?

 

[magicwhisper]

nothing to report for me just waiting for af to arrive so we can follow the plan next month

 

[AC1987]

Lily, errmmm suck it up and dtd anyways? to be honest I'm totally fine going without sex. Its more I get upset about not doing it because I can feel the distance that sneaks up between dh and I, anytime I'm pregnant he won't dtd with me because he thinks he'll hurt the baby, and also its a whole lot painful for me so I try to act like everything is ok. But last time we attempted he could tell it was hurting me.

Christie, I can imagine being busy!!! sometimes I wish we could live in Canada where healthcare is free and to be able to receive baby bonuses and stuff, here we get nothing, and we don't qualify for any help


Patrice, oh that's only about a week away!!


AFM... I'm SO down.. gah!! This morning I was so sappy couldn't stop crying... I keep wanting to make an appt but then I think about how we can't afford it and how its just gonna go on our credit and I don't want to I mean I'm DYING to know that everything is ok and that baby is growing ok and all.. but at the same time its so depressing. And then when I asked my dh if he'd rather I make the appt after his payday and hes like it doesn't matter its all gonna go on credit anyways to which I feel terrible about. Its like I feel all I do is cause my dh to be poor and I know he wants me to work.. but I never wanted to work, I always dreamed about being a sahm... but maybe that's just a dream that I don't be able to do.

 

[mzswizz]

Christie-Your kids are all gorgeous and Dominic is growing so fast!

Lily-Yeah now that I think about it...it's next Wednesday! And im with Ashley..even though you don't want to...just do it It has been times I didn't want to bd with dh but I just did it anyways so he doesn't think im not attracted to him etc.

magic-fxed for your bfp soon!

Ashley-aw I know the feeling. I been through those times of feeling like I put dh in debt to the point where I just started working so we can have extra money in our pockets. If you want to make sure baby is okay, I say just go to make sure instead of worrying. In the long run, you will be happy you did. And who knows maybe you can find an "at-home" job so you can still be home and at the same time find time to work..i always try to find a win/win out of the situation

AFM, im cd42 today and my temp spiked up today Wasn't really expecting that to happen. We didn't bd yesterday because I was too exhausted to. But we bd'd Friday and Saturday and might dtd today so hoping that covers it this time. We'll got to see what the remaining 2 temps will look like to see if I o'd yesterday or not. Still just patiently waiting for Sept. 4th to come and almost done with the module in school that has been taking forever to finish..i have 90% completed Also, I go back to work tomorrow at 9am, which I am dreading but I have to make money so just have to put on my big girl panties and just work the hours and come home. Just cant wait to get my certification in medical coding and billing so I can start a career in the medical field instead of doing these retail jobs that causes too much stress with little pay.

 

[magicwhisper]

thank you

i just realised i am working in "breakfast club" first which means a half 7 start for the next three days. ts a good job i am not in my fertile window because i wuld be to tired to do anything

 

[josephine3]

Ashley can u mayb work part time as a comprimise? Thats what i do. Only brings in £400 a month but it helps!
I hardly ever dtd if i dont feel like it, he has to wait! Altho admittedly he got a yes a lot more when i wanted to concieve. But it added something too, an excitement that we could make a baby!

 

[hello_kitty]

ughhh, I totally need to change and show some interested, whether ttc or not. I keep turning my dh down and if this continues he might be tempted to get it somewhere else.

Today is cd 4 for me and the bleeding has decreased. Will probably got back to normal in 2 days. Zachary has been babbling a lot. I took him to the pedi today and the doc said he seemed to be fine, might have a little reflux but its not bad enough to get treated for.

 

[AC1987]

Patrice, yeah I'm trying to think of a job I can do working from home, my mom mentioned babysitting as that's the only job I know I have experience in but it just feels like I've had enough with kids, my sister mentioned telemarketing but I think that'd stress me out too much since a lot of it hasta to do with commission and sales. Maybe I will just hafta suck it up and babysit part time, I might mention it to my hubby and see what he thinks.


Jo, yea its funny how crazy me and dh were the last time when we were actually trying Poor him hardly got a break!! Its kinda sad though because we were just starting to back into our sex life again then bam I get pregnant. I swear pregnancy must make you more fertile or something!!


Lily, awww what do you think is making the distance between you and your hubby? Does he help out around the house or anything? Maybe see if he can agree to doing more housework or spending more time with Zachary, and if he is up to that then say you're willing to ttc again? As I know its really hard when you get no help.

 

[ricschick]

Lily sorry your having problems with hubby I no how hard it is with a baby and sometimes me just don't understand what we do at home too! Hope everything is ok now.

Patrice I hope you ov soon!!!! X

AFM I've just come off my period so I'm on cd5 so hopefully il have a normal cycle! As I've been irregular in the past. So fx!! Baby dust to all!!!!!

 

[AC1987]

Alrighty, so I called to make an appt to be seen... and got told not to bother coming in, that I'll receive a call from a nurse on sept the 11th to ask about my medical history. Now am I crazy or does that seem crazy late?! That means I will miss out on getting my ultrasound, and also not get seen until I'm in 2nd tri. Is it because its my 2nd pregnancy that they're like this? Or was the receptionist just not listening to me and thinks I'm only 4 weeks? Like maybe she heard july instead of june? I'm so confused but I feel quite stupid too. like I don't want to call back incase this a normal thing.
