March/April BFP's who's going for it!! NEW LADIES COME JOIN IN!!

[nevergivingup]

Ok whooo I caught up!!

Garfie: YUUUMMMM CAKE!!! I so want a red velvet cake and want to set it all by myself, I don't want to share!! How was that cake Garfie? And I won't be done until May 2015 but DH and I agreed we're going to try in Nov. 2014, so I'll still be pregnant when I graduate, won't be able to get a job having a stomach and all but that'll be ok.

Mackjess: Hellooo, glad you're still hanging around. Sorry about your babysitting service failed, esp when you need them at that point. That's so aggravating, like stay true to your end. Ugh. Hope u find a solution soon.

Mowat: I def understand the happiness of seeing AF after a M/C, it's like we're almost back to being normal again. Good luck next cycle!

Pinkcasi: I def need to pack me and my son up and head to your place in the Uk, it sounds like Christmas there already!!! How exciting you must be you're 30 weeks....YOUR LIITLE GIRL IS going to be here before you can blink you're eye!! 10 more weeks YAYY!!

Welcome to our new ladies!!

Es: I love Guinea pigs!!

And it does seem like it will be a wave of girls this time Yayyyy!! How awesome this is and works out!!

AFM: Well I've been having a problem with my MIL, she has 3 other grand kids that she'll break her back for from her two daughters. She'll call them daily and she'll stop by and see them weekly. My son is her youngest grand baby and her other ones were oopsies by her daughters sleeping around. My DH is her oldest son and we wanted our baby , well the problem is she dosent call to check on her grandson, she dosent come over and she works around the corner, it'll take her 1 minute to get to my home. But she will never come by. And remind everyone that she's always calling my DH for money to pay her bills and he gives it to her. we go to the same church and every Sunday when we go to church everyone wants to hold my baby or see him and here she comes out of nowhere saying "Let me hold my grand baby" taking him from whoever was holding him. And she'll kiss up on him and try to act like she's the best grandmother in the world when she's really a Sorry awful grandmother that I rather just not come around at all even on Sundays. She'll parade her other grand kids around but won't even call to ask ab my son who wasn't a mistake! I talked to my DH (her son) about this and told him it breaks my heart bc my baby deserves real love bc he is a miracle baby. And he told me I should tell her then and tell her how I feel this Sunday, I think I am bc it breaks my heart but I guess no one will ever love my child as I will but is a phone call to much to ask for???

I guess I just vented....woosahhhh!!

 

[nevergivingup]

O sorry Kat ab your cat, I do believe you're doing what u think is best for your fur baby, I hope you heal with time.

SWEETZ: Wowsers.....Idk those syptms are the same as Prego signs.....and the 10th is so far away when I'm so anxious to find out! Gas is symp. # 1!! Backache gave mine away.... SWEETZZZZZZZZZZZZ ( I'm singing)

 

[Sweetz33]

LOL@Woosah!! Sometimes a woosah helps...trust me I do it often. I agree with DH...you need to tell her how you feel or it will just eat you up inside.

I am not sure if it is just that I am irritable lately, but I have become very snarky. I am about to tear my DH a new one. I woke up, baby was still asleep, so to be nice I started the coffee for him, but said I am laying back down bc I am a bit tired. He said ok. Then said something to me in a loud voice (not yelling but loud) and my dog (who is awesome btw) went into mommy protect mode. He then called her stupid and started ranking on my dog...mistake #1. NO ONE messes with my dog. Then he goes out to make his coffee and makes so much freaking noise he wakes up the baby. Welp, there goes my extra (maybe) hour of sleep. Mistake #2. He comes in bedroom to say bye and asks why I am grumpy...I tell him bc you made so much noise you woke up baby, he blew me off and told me to stop being so cranky. BIG MISTAKE #3. Then he leaves and doesn't take our 2 dogs out...wtf?! He ALWAYS takes the dogs out to at least pee...Mistake #4. So I say f-it. Get up, take the dogs out. Then I come back in and *twitch* I see coffee and sugar spilled all over the counter. Mistake #5...this man has but my already grouchy mood lately into the stratosphere. I think I shall copy Never.......

WOOOOOOOOSSSAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!! lol

 

[Sweetz33]

O sorry Kat ab your cat, I do believe you're doing what u think is best for your fur baby, I hope you heal with time.

SWEETZ: Wowsers.....Idk those syptms are the same as Prego signs.....and the 10th is so far away when I'm so anxious to find out! Gas is symp. # 1!! Backache gave mine away.... SWEETZZZZZZZZZZZZ ( I'm singing)

Is super cranky wanna bite someones head off a symptom? ROFLMAO

 

[ESwemba84]

So sorry Kat. He won't be in pain anymore.

 

[Left wonderin]

Oh Kat I'm so so sorry to read about that difficult decision you have had to make , you must be devastated . Knowing you are making your friends last journey a pain free one is so courageous of you . You are in my thoughts . Soon your friend will be running free at rainbow bridge xxxxxxxx

 

[Sweetz33]

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor;
those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again,
just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing;
they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together,
but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance.
His bright eyes are intent;
His eager body quivers.
Suddenly he begins to run from the group,
flying over the green grass,
his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted,
and when you and your special friend finally meet,
you cling together in joyous reunion,
never to be parted again.
The happy kisses rain upon your face;
your hands again caress the beloved head,
and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet,
so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
​

(((((Kat)))))

 

[Starry Night]

Kat, I am so sorry about your kitty. It's such a hard to decision to make but you're making sure he is as comfortable and happy as possible. Thinking of you.

never - I hope you are able to sort things out with your MiL. Hopefully, she simply doesn't realizing she is favouring her other grandkids over yours or that you even want her around. I mean, a lot of girls on this site complain about having their MiLs around too much so some MiLs just stay away all together. Maybe once she realizes you want her around she'll only be too happy to come.

Sweetz - I hope your dh is more sensitive in the future. I don't think they can appreciate how tiring and stressful being the primary care taker of a baby can be or how precious sleep becomes. And our post partum hormones make everything seem even more tragic than they already are. I think I hated my dh on and off throughout the first year. It does get better though.

afm - starting to feel yucky more and more. It's all part and parcel of the pregnant gig. I'm trying to think positive and hope these are all signs that things are going well.

 

[eyemom]

I am so so behind. I have just kinda sorta caught up. Will try to type up a proper reply tonight. But still cheering for everyone. And Kat

 

[nevergivingup]

Thanks Starry!! I agree but I just hope she thinks that way too. How's bedrest going so far I know u said u were bored, do u have any plans to do while u wait?

Sweetz: o my those DH know they can push some buttons....all I be thinking in my head is o you'll need me buddy...even if it is just for some they have no idea how much work it is to take care of these little boogers and have to entertain them bc mine will never sit still. And the sugar will drive me crazy too don't he know you're OCD! If only the roles could switch for one day so they could see how 30 mins of those babies sleeping is like gold to us. You're def not extra irritable you're just extra noticeable this morning. I was like that all this week during AF, I was like a dragon ready to bite my DH head off then burn him up afterwards.....so we'll see what's yours stemming from soon until then keep it going......WOOSAHHHHHH

 

[MamaTex]

dovkav123: Welcome to the thread ma'am!! How did your test turn out?

ttcmoon: Glad you are with a caring clinic. It is so important to have the right support!!

mowat: Crossing my fingers for you. I hope your body starts cooperating.

mackjess: Sorry about your stroke of bad luck. I would be so livid with the admin at work. I hope you find a replacement for your old baby sitter. How crappy!!

garfie: Hope you got some cake. I have been tempted to make one but I know I don't need all that sugary goodness!!! I am going to wait for a more special occasion.

Kat S: So sorry about your cat. Just know that you ARE doing something for your cat. You are loving it and they definitely sense that.

ESwemba: I hate to read that you have another bad disc. I hope you and the surgeon can work out a good action plan.

Sweetz33: Those symptoms you are describing could very well be the Stork getting ready to come for another visit or it could be AF lol. Time will tell.

Never: I can browse the website on my phone and have it propped on my Bobby Pillow while I feed Sky or browse with the mouse in one hand as I hold Sky. I am able to do personals because she is sleeping. She normally falls asleep around this time so it affords me some free time.

Speaking of Sky, her next doctor appointment is on Oct 21st when she will be two months. She is set to get some immunizations. I hated seeing her get that jab for the newborn screening so I know I will wince again when she has to get immunized. As for your MIL she is definitely not being fair to you and her grandson. I would speak with her directly. Just ask her point blank what is up. I know it is easy to get caught up in our own lives, but if she makes time for the other grand children there is no reason she cannot make time for the one she has from you and your DH!!

Starry: Glad to see things are progressing

Pink: Oh my goodness!! You are over 30 weeks. How crazy is that? Time is starting to fly!

Tricia: Hey there!! You are coming along as well. So exciting!!

eyemom: Glad your HSG went well!!

AFM: The post partum bleeding has finally stopped I think. It has been almost a week. I am starting to think AF might be on the way. I had about two days of increased discharge and then it tapered off. I have also started to cramp ever so slightly. It takes me by surprise. I haven't been getting irritable or tired like I normally do right before AF so I am not sure what is going on.

On Wednesday I pricked myself after a rather carb heavy breakfast to see what my blood sugar was looking like. It was 114 after eating a few biscuits with sausage gravy and jelly (two I had with sausage gravy and two I had with jelly). I decided I deserved a treat that morning haha. It looks like I don't still have diabetes which is good.

 

[Sweetz33]

I am usually not this evil...unless it is a day or two before AF so maybe she is coming super early this month. Ugh just got a super weird taste in my mouth though...YUCK!! I am also craving tuna....rofl fudgin hormones...

 

[mackjess]

Hmm, the weird mouth taste was a deffo symptom for me sweetz!

 

[Pinkcasi]

Ok Blimey I've been AWOL for a couple of days and soooo much has happened so sorry if I miss peeps

Never, like others have said just mention it to your mil and see what she says she might think that you don't need her as your so capable, I know the same happened with my gran when my niece was born, she was the second grand daughter, there had been only one for about 7 years then my niece came along and she never got the same love or attention my sis went mental eventually but gran didn't realise after she made more of an effort, another 8 years on and my lil girl is coming and I don't expect her to make too much effort she's 84 now tho she did buy my mattresses for the cot and Moses basket and some bedding today do no complaints here.

Mack sorry your having troubles I'm sure it'll sort out.

Sweetz did I miss a page are you preggers again?!?!?!? Are we symptom spotting how exciting!

Garfie I deffo think I missed a page as I no nothing about cake but I hope it was good, I've been craving anything sweet but at my last mw appt there was sugar in my pee and she was concerned so I'm trying to cut down

Sorry everyone else I've missed I'm really all over the shop at the mo baby brain has gone to a whole new level honestly I don't know what's going on lol
I have officially finished work, the dr signed me off until my mat leave starts, the SPD has gone to a new level too and I've officially given up leaving the house, thank god for Internet shopping and sky tv!

Hope your all well and hugs to all x

 

[Sweetz33]

Not that I know of Pink lol You are almost done!! woohoo!!!

 

[nevergivingup]

THANKS ladies for all the advice!! I agree with you all so I'm going over in my head now how I should present this too her in a cordial way.

MamaTex: Nect baby I'm def getting me a boppy pillow, all I used was my regular pillows, I bet that boppy pillow worked better then those things. And don't u worry to much the pain will be over real quick but in sure she might holler her little head off at least I know my LO did. Had me about to cry bc he was in so much pain afterwards...now he's a pro at it...at least after he gets the shot. And man did that lunch sound great or was it breakfast.. All I know is if I eat 1 biscuit it will show the next morning and I will be 10lb heavier. But you deserve it I agree. If I was still nursing I would def treat myself being that you have to eat extra calories. And Yayy for bleeding stopping, that was a great feeling!

Pinkcasi: Well your gran don't sound to bad at least she did buy you something my MIL haven't brought him anything since he was born. She's just so awful! Glad to hear you're out of work, you need to spend the rest of these days relaxing and lying down.

AFM: My LO is sooooooo busy!! He's starting to crawl and he's trying to get into everything!! I just want to throw everything in the storage rm so he can't get into anything!

 

[Starry Night]

never - that is probably a good idea about putting your nice things away for the next couple of years. I would love to try and decorate my living room to be a grown up space but the way my house is laid out you have to go through it to get to the bedrooms, bathrooms, etc. It's a through-way. He's going to be playing in it so I have simply put most of my things away for now and will wait until I am done having little kids to put out my curios, vases, nice candle holders, etc.

Last Christmas we had to decorate the tree so everything was out of arm's reach. The bottom was empty and it looked so silly but it was the only way! This year even more space at the bottom will be bare as I still won't be able to trust him! Maybe Christmas 2014....but then...I will hopefully have another little one to mess things up. (please, oh please )

mama - I've always had dh hold ds during needles because I get too teary and anxious. You might want to have some infant tylenol on hand as sometimes vaccinations can make babies a little sore and grumpy for the rest of the day. Though ask her doctor about it first! DS ended up being just fine after his shots so not all babies are affected in the same way.

 

[nevergivingup]

Starry I like the way u think!! You're going for 3 eh, I'm right behind you!! Unfortunately I will have to skip 2014 but hopefully I'll be right behind ya. I still haven't child proof my home yet I still have my pretty antiquish y'all vases sitting on the floors. Pine combs with little pieces to them sitting low for easy access, my home halfway looks like no kid stays here then u turn around and it has blankets spread on the floor for crawling, bouncer in the middle if the floor and remind u He has the big huge bouncer, a gym a baby chair then there's his blocks, toy rings and v-tech toys trying to teach anyone in reach the ABC's and colors with all that noise. I really need to put my house stuff away but I'm in denial that my place can still look decoratively cute and babyish at the same time. Maybe I need to come into the light and get to child proofing.

SN: I'm so ready for church today to talk to my MIL as well as a couple more of his family....it's time to clean house!

 

[Left wonderin]

What a bunch of busy ladies you all are Starry feeling uck is good the uck er the better

Never good luck with the chats with mil and co .... Sounds like they are needed
SWeetz Laughing at the idea of you biting your oh head off !!! Mrs dragon lady !
Mama maybe you could superglue your vases to the floor - instant child proofing
Pink ouch you sound in a lot of discomfort , but no Long to go now eeeeek

AFM : My bump has finally arrived but still has some growing to do lol !!!! Tommrow is my scan and a little nervous now as well as SUPER excited only one more sleep !!!! LO is wiggling and flip flopping around loads its such a comfort to feel

 

[Sweetz33]

Never....anything breakable by dropping or drooling needs to be put away ASAP lol

Woke up around 1:30am with HORRIBLE nausea....and woke up this morning with nausea and heartburn. Oye....if this is AF I wish she would just come already. FF had a slight temp increase from 97.86 to 97.89...nothing significant. If it keeps rising and the nausea doesn't give up I guess I will test. AF is due in a week....so either she is coming early or the latter.
