gorgeous pics Christie!!


AFM went to the pedi with Cassidy for her shots, shes now 27 inches and 17 pounds 13 ounces.. shes a small baby still But they're happy shes growing.
I'm hoping she won't react badly to the shots, I've heard such horror stories so I'm really hoping she'll be ok with them.

 

[hello_kitty]

Nice pics Christie! Glad you had a wonderful time.

Ashley I also took Zachary to the pediatrician yesterday for his 9 month check up. He is 28 inches long and weighs 17 lbs 5 oz. Very close to Cassidy.

We didn't dtd last night. I wanted to sleep early. I don't care if I don't get it this cycle though, im not in a rush. Funny how with the first I was soo obsessed with ttc, second baby im like yea whatever. It''ll come when it comes.

 

[boxxey]

at Doms 4 month needles he was 17lbs 4 ounces lol

 

[AC1987]

now it really makes me think my baby is small LOL!!

Lily, that's how it was gonna be with us! I figured when we finally were gonna ttc I wasn't gonna do the whole tracking I was just gonna see what happens then buy a few preg tests.
Maybe laid back is the way to go LOL

wow Lily, Christie & Ashley: Your babies are getting bigger by the minute. When do they stop growing

AFM, im cd23 today and looks like my temp has finally went up. I had to wake up at 5:45am this morning instead of my normal 7am because DH is going on his 17 day detachment today so I had to drop him off. When I took my temp at 5:45am it was actually 97.20F but I used the temp adjuster because I took my temp at a different time and it put my temp at 97.45F. So hoping my temp just goes up for the next 2 days because if it does..that means I finally o'd and if I did...I finally o'd the day BEFORE he went on detachment. FF said the earliest I can ov is cd24 and today I am cd23 so we shall see. We have our bases covered up until today. I know that supposedly sperm lasts for up to 5 days so I have a few days ahead covered as well. Just in case mytemp just went up randomly. But I was very shocked to see it go up so high today. I didn't do anything different also like wear pajamas etc And most of the time if we dtd like around 12am-1am...it still didn't effect my temp so I know dtd didn't change anything either....so fxed that ov has FINALLY happened last night. So today starts day 1 of DH being away and Im going to miss him but I can still talk to him on the phone etc and I didn't take him leaving as bad as I thought. I guess its because Im use to DH being away so now I just adjusted mentally to it. But I cant wait for him to come home safely. Hoping that I did ov and I get a bfp because then when he comes back home...we'll have a bfp and he will know before his birthday (sept. 7th). So fingers crossed this is ovulation but we shall see how the next 2 days go. Hoping my temp doesn't drop or I don't have ovulation at all. Also, I see my doc in 5 days to discuss fertility issues so if this is ovulation...I can talk to her about what I know about me not ovulating every month etc and she can probably check to see if I have ovulated etc. I don't know but hoping I get some type of answer(s) when I go. So all in all everything is going good. And now its time for me to start on my school work.

Looking at your chart, I think if it continues to rise then I will say you def oved!! So crossing my fingers for you

And I hope you don't get too lonely with your dh away!!


AFM I made a blueberry and cherry cobbler yummm... my dh said hes gonna make lasagna I just hope he comes early enough to make it in time for dinner

 

[mzswizz]

Ashley-That sounds so yummy and I hope I o'd too. Just fxed that my temp rises for the next 2 days.

 

[magicwhisper]

well af has officially gone

 

[mzswizz]

yay for AF to be gone magic!!!

 

[AC1987]

looks like you didn't ov... did you use a temp changer? or is it just being wacky?

 

[mzswizz]

Ashley-Actually no..that was my actual temp when I woke at 7am unfortunately. So im thinking this is going to be a no ov cycle.

AFM, im cd24 and it looks like im not going to ovulate this cycle or might just have late ovulation. My temp didn't rise any higher so it seems like my body once again failed at its attempt to ov. From looking at my chart, it looks like I tried to ov either 2-3 times already. In 4 days, I will be seeing my doc so hopefully she sheds some light on what's going on with my body and why im not ovulating like I suppose to. I have completed another module in my medical coding and billing program so another milestone completed Im hoping by next month, the program will be complete and I will be able to start working as a medical coder soon Also, dh made it safely in Alaska yesterday so im happy about that. Im just ready to start my career and get a bfp so we can start expanding our family. This job will be perfect if I get pregnant because I will be sitting at a desk so I wont be on my feet lifting heavy items as I do now at my current job. So that's why I am focused and determined to be done soon. Well that's it for me.

 

[magicwhisper]

awh good luck at the docs!

 

[mzswizz]

thanks magic! how's it going?

 

[magicwhisper]

its good thanks, its our month off ttc because we are both going away to seperate places during my fertile time xD its nice to have a break!

 

[mzswizz]

that's good. glad your are getting your nice break because trust me we all need one

 

[mzswizz]

AFM, I got a call today for a job interview on Saturday and also I put down an adoption hold fee because we getting a new dog (the other dog was terrible so gave him another home with people who can train better). Also, looks like this cycle is going to be short and no ov because...im spotting but its more like a light flow. Its this pink/purple looking color and its not consistent. It only came out with DH's extra soldiers/my cm. And its wet when it comes out but it dries up like discharge So right now im totally im only cd24 and obviously I didn't ovulate at all so I don't know what to make of this. Will definitely talk to my doc about this on Monday and see what happens. Also this is my 3rd cycle after the bcps so I have no clue whats going on. They said that the bcps that I was taken will be completely out my system in the matter of days so I don't know what my body is going through. I didn't even have TIME to ovulate

 

[AC1987]

Oh how odd Patrice!! I hope your ob can explain it..


AFM.. I'm feeling down *sigh* my dh is taking it badly again me being pregnant, he's slipping into denial again We were talking the other day, and I mentioned something about when the baby comes to which he replies "What baby?" and I'm like "I'm pregnant remember?" and he says "There's nothing in there, you can't say there's something in there until you know for sure" .... OUCH! I don't know if this is his way of coping like incase I miscarry, but I have finally accepted that I'm pregnant again, I haven't really done anything like shopping or telling fb just yet, but its like I wish he'd be more supportive.

 

[mzswizz]

Aww Ashley-I hope your dh will come around soon. Sometimes men handle things differently. When we're super happy sometimes our DHs will be nonchalant about it. I think once he sees the baby on u/s, then he will make a complete turn around

AFM, im on cd25 today and the brown discharge has stopped last night around 10pm so I only had it for 2-3 hours. And it was a little bit on the pad (not enough to call it a light period because it wasn't constant and it only came out when the discharge came out) and it wasn't there when I wiped nor was in the toilet so only on the pad It don't seem like I ovulated neither so I don't know whats going on. Also, first it was pinkish/purplish (don't know how to really describe it..kinda of peach like) and then half a hour later, it turned brown. It was dry brown discharge like. It don't even look like bleeding so im lost. It sounded like characteristics of implantation bleeding but from looking at FF chart, it doesn't show that I o'd so im confused all around. I was thinking that it was AF. Usually, the first day it would be here and there but mostly here and doesn't really stop and then by the next morning, its here full blown. But it stopped last night and it hasn't been back since and Ive used the bathroom twice and all I see is the normal cm..so this is me right now Any ideas?
