light hearted ttc

[hello_kitty]

Sorry about Cassidy being fussy Ashley. I hope she goes back to her usual self soon. Zachary wakes up at around 8-9 am every morning. He eats his breakfast lunch then goes back to sleep brgore 1 and usually wakes up 3 hrs after. He goes to bed anywhere from 930-1030. So its working out good.

Dh weighed jayden last night and he was 10.4 lbs so almost 10.5. At least he's gained over 2 lbs in a month. His appointment is tomorrow. At least he fits into clothes that coordinates with his age Zachary had a problem of being one size behind...still do actually. He'll be 24 months November but is wearing 18 months. Jayden is 2 months but wears 0-3 and 3 months.

Im having the opposite clothes problem! Jamie has outgrown all his newborn and 0-3 stuff already and it firmly in 3-6 month stuff at 12 weeks! He was 14 lbs at his 8 week weigh in so probly a lot more now. He's so big he's not great at holding his head up even, still a big floppy lump! Hoping it improves soon.
8-9am is a great time for zachary to wake up! 7am for us if im lucky.

Hayley hope ur feeling better and the morning sickness dies down!

Ok so call me crazy but iv been having pregnancy symptoms! I swear we'veo only dtd once since i gave birth and it was with a condom. I cannot be pregnant surely?! Why is my body playing this evil trick on me!

Exact same thing happened to me yesterday! We did once when jayden was 5 weeks old WITHOUT a condom I took a test and got a bfn seeing how much it scared me we're using protection next time.

Hello all. Glad to be back on here. Im currently on cd9 and AF is still in the midst. DH came back from deployment on August 2nd and we just came back from visiting our family back in florida. We had an awesome time. Now its time to get back into the swing of things. DH finally decided he wants to actively ttc. So i have my appt set for the 17th of this month and we see what we are going to do to ttc since i have been away for 7 months. Hopefully a bfp is in the midst for us soon.

 

[josephine3]

Omg patrice lol! Soo nice to hear from u hope ur both doing well. Cant wait for u to get that bfp!

 

[AC1987]

Patrice welcome back!!!

AFM... Rose can scoot forward now OMG... AHHH!!! growing so fast!!
Life is crazy it makes me shake my head that I have been in this topic since before I was even pregnant with Cassidy!

 

[magicwhisper]

pregnancy ... my oh wants another lo and has been told no

ell is ok, still trying to woork out all the throwing up!

 

[AC1987]

I feel myself getting broody again and tell myself NO NO NO... not until Rose is almost 2. As I want next year to give my body a chance to properly recover. I plan to gain more weight before I decide to ttc as well.
I think the breastfeeding and chasing after Cassidy is making me lose too much grrrrr! I don't find there is enough time in the day to eat lots

 

[magicwhisper]

yeah i need to lose weight first

 

[hello_kitty]

Ashley - I'm breastfeeding too but find it so hard to lose weight probably cuz I put Zachary in his play yard too much and I still find time to eat.

 

[ricschick]

welcome back Patrice!!! so glad your back and hubby is safe and sound and baby making is on the cards!!! looking forward to your bfp!!!

magic hope the new milk works out for you!! have thy mentined introducing solids early?

Joanie is defo our last!! theres no more room in the car she had her 6 week check (at 7weeks) and now weighs 13lb 5!! she is so chubby its adorable!! and has for the last 2 nights slept from 9pm-5.45am!!

 

[josephine3]

Hey all! Rics it sounds like u got a big baby on ur hands too! Jamie was 16 lb 2 at his injections at 13 weeks now wearing vests in 6-9 months!
i am definitely in the need to lose weight category! Still over a stone to go till im back to my pre-babies weight! My problem is not finding time to eat properly so snacking on junk..tut tut.

 

[ricschick]

lol yep little chunkers we have! I want to lose weight too!! id like to lose at least a stone more if possible but im the same I don't get time to eat and when I do its something quick!!

 

[hello_kitty]

So jealous ladies I want a chubby babe! He looks chubby in pics but he's actually only 11.2 lbs at 10 weeks. If only he was born full term it would be much better he should only be 6 weeks if born full term and 11.2 lbs for a 6 weeker sounds much better.

 

[AC1987]

I must have some sort of weird gene. I think because when I'm stressed I just can't eat, I lose my appetite.

Rose had her 6 month appt... 6 MONTHS!! crazy She is 13 pounds 9 ounces, 24 inches long. Only thing the pediatrician mentioned was that her left eye apparently turns in making her look cross eyed.. she get a referral to an eye doctor, but my hubby thinks its fine and that he knows plenty of people with a lazy eye. My only concern would be when it comes time for reading would it be a problem.

 

[josephine3]

Lots of people do have lazy eye i have it a little but its not noticable because i wore glasses from a young age and even a patch too! My mum always warned me to wear my glasses 'or you'll end up like your cousin' who did have a very noticeable lazy eye as she didnt wear her glasses! Eyes are important! That said maybe do some reasearch and see by what age it should correct itself, then go if its still a problem. X

 

[hello_kitty]

Ashley if your pediatrician referred you should give it a go and see what they say. I would definitely do some research too as Josephine said.

Afm, Oh God I am tired! Maybe because Jayden has been extra fussy today and he keeps spitting up today too. He keeps crying and wont go to sleep. Even when he does sleep, he doesnt go into a deep sleep and starts crying again. Plus I have to do double the work which is tiring.

I am always hungry because of breastfeeding/pumping...I dont lose weight though because I keep eating whenever I am hungry.

Kinda hoping the next kid would be my last. Dh really wants a girl I told him I wanted a 2 year break but he wants to try again next year after Jayden turns one. I used to picture 4 kids but now I am picturing 3 kids.

 

[josephine3]

I am still picturing 3 but in reality im not sure i can imagine going back to the baby days when they are both more grown up. Ur oh is eager lol! I think our bodies need a break now before more pregnancies!

My big girl is now doing lots of wees on the toilet after we bought her a peppa pig toilet seat haha

 

[josephine3]

I also forgot to tell u about my nightmare when i got referred for an appointment too. Just before jamies 8 week injections he had a weird spasm thing down his leg that made him cry. I thought that georgia had poked him or something but then i saw him do it again and cry. I asked the hv the nest day who said ask tthe doctor. I think also because he srill had a strong head side preference and his eye tracking wasnt gretat, she reffered him. Anyway his head and eyes got loads better and he never had a weird twitch again. I thought theres probly no need to go as he seems happy - also would have had to take georgia too, get oh to book a day off to take us, nightmare. So i phoned the surgery and explained all this to the doctor who said it was fine to cancel which i did. So then at his 1t week check the same hv asks what happened and she was awfull to me about not going, she really guilt tripped me that i wasnt doing my best for the baby it seemed. She then went on about 'head lag' and recommended i see another doctor she said i was next in line anyway so i agreed. I was not next in line...

 

[josephine3]

.. I was there 2 hrs before we even saw a doctor, jamie was so tired he was asleep by the time he had his injections. So the doctor says hes not concerned about him at all , his head lag is below average but he has good muscle tone in his neck and perfect tracking! So then the bloody hv comes back and i tell he hes all fine and she says 'oh worth the wait then!'
like im supposed to be thrilled about my healthy baby not stressed having to wait with a tired baby for hrs for no reason! I could have strangled her she was horrible!
