TIE WELCOME JACK, HENRY, DEVON, ROXAS, PENELOPE, MATILDA, THEO and Charlotte!!

[MrsStutler]

Hey everybody! I hope everybody is doing good. Jess, you look so cute! I can't believe you're almost 30 weeks, insane how fast time goes by!

We are doing alright, just trying to make it through each day. School is going a lot better, I feel so much more confident in my clinical setting and my grade is an A! I never thought I would end up with that good of a grade. It's so much work though and our financial situation is just totally going to shit right now. I'm trying to stay as positive as possible and just focus on each day as it comes.

We had a very quiet little halloween. I dressed up as Lilo and Roxas was Stitch although nobody got what we were, everybody thought he was Eeyore. We just went and visited some family and friends then hung out at home all evening.

I'm completely clueless as to where I'm at in this cycle and I have to say for the first time pretty much ever, I really am not thinking about it or paying attention. Maybe that will do the trick. Anyways, lot of hugs all around and I hope everybody is doing well!

Aww you two prob looked so cute! Do you have a pic ?
My little man wanted to be something creepy for Halloween , it was his first year not wanting to be a super hero or something cute my little man is growing up!

I can't believe I'm almost 30 weeks too! It's crazy how fast the time went!
I'm a pumpkin now!

so glad to hear your doing good on clinicals! That's great!
I know how hard it can be

When do you think AF should arrive ? Any idea? Or are you just going to be shocked one day when she appears lol

 

[MrsStutler]

I'm about 98% sure O-day is near, I've been paying attention to my CM and it seems like it's a pretty decent indicator of ovulation and the past day or two have been great EWCM. Theoretically AF should be here around mid-November but I'm trying not to focus on specific dates so I don't get my hopes up.

Only a few more weeks of the first semester left and right now it's getting easier to see that light at the end of the tunnel. I've gotten to play around with our SimMan mannequin now and I am blown away by how cool this guy is. He can do pretty much any bodily function you can think of, he talks to you, has pulses, breathes, blinks, sweats, bleeds, his pupils react to light and a ton more cool things! I get to play around with him tomorrow too, I'm really excited for that now

Here are a couple of new pictures of us

Beautiful pics Kayla!!! And yay for O approaching & the end of the first semester bing in sight

How is everyone else doing?

AFM - Jack had his 6-8 week check today, he made me so proud, he was all smiles even while there were poking & prodding him! He is now 10lb3ozs but he does have colic which makes his last feed of the day hard

I am doing great on my healthy eating & losing a steady 3lb a week.

Oh here's another pic
This one cracks me up! She has her hand and her foot blocking her face!
She's in a Frank Breech position (I'm not to happy to hear that) but I guess she will flip when the time comes.
I hope so

[Jess19]

[honeysuede]

Hi Grace & Nicole

Lovely pics Jess Hope you have a great shower xxx

 

[Grumblebea]

Hi

 

[Jess19]

Hi girls
The baby shower was lovely, there is so much pink in my house now lol
I've been trying to up load pics since last night but for some reason photo bucket isn't working
Does anyone have any suggestions on a different site to up load pics from my phone ?

 

[MrsStutler]

Ooooooh I LOVE the ultrasound pics! Too cute! I hope she flips around for you, there is still plenty of time. I wish I could have been at your baby shower, that jam sounds amazing. A customer at DHs work gave him a jar of homemade raspberry jam and it was deeeeeee-licious. I'm getting so excited for you to be in the home stretch (literally hehe)

I'm behaving myself and really taking it about as easy as I've ever taken it on TTC. I'm pretty sure I ovulated and I will think I'll start POAS next week sometime since according to FF AF is due on the 21st. I only have 10 cheapy tests and one FRER left so I'm trying to be as patient as possible so I don't waste any!

I have my last exam before the final on Thursday so I'm hitting the books super hard right now, I feel like my brain is going to explode

 

[Jess19]

Oh good luck testing Kayla !

And good luck on your finals!
Thanks I can't wait to see my little girl and hold her in my arms! I can feel my patience wearing thin now lol it's going to be a long 9 weeks!

 

[MrsStutler]

One of the chapters we are being tested on tomorrow covers the reproductive cycle...I think I've got that one covered Lol I think I could be considered an expert at this point hehe

 

[Jess19]

Haha right! You totally got this!

 

[MrsStutler]

I got a 99.5 on my test this morning
I only got four hours of sleep last night thanks to a combo of staying up late studying and Roxas being up with his teething, I felt like a complete zombie this morning, but apparently my brain came through for me lol

So I did a test yesterday because well...I couldn't control myself at the time it looked BFN but I looked at it again today and there is a line there. I didn't look at it after about two minutes yesterday because I got side tracked with Roxas, so I'm not sure if the line showed up within 5/10 min or it's just an evap. I'm passing it off as an evap for now so I don't get my hopes up, but for your line seeking pleasure here is the picture, one tweaked and one not

 

[Jess19]

great job on your test!

Oh boy the teething days...... I forgot about those lol funfun

I can see a nice line on your test! Esp on the tweaked one, wow!
Are you going to test again in the am?
