Morning! How is everyone?
well I think I might be out Here is a link to this morning's tests, I took 3 ICs as I thought I saw something on one but I think I am kidding myself. Af pains are still here too. xxhttps://babyandbump.momtastic.com/pregnancy-tests/1970455-9dpo-ic-bfp-please-not-evap-10dpo-2.html#post29082033

T- That's wonderful about Jack! I thought I saw something on your tests but I'm only on my tablet so I can't be sure. Keeping my fingers crossed though!

Harri- How exciting you'll be back on the TTC train soon!

Nicole- hope you enjoyed disneyland! It's my favorite place in the whole world. I can't wait to go back next year. Keep us updated on your daughter, how exciting.

Lucy is so different than Roxas was, much more of a high maintenance baby. She really put me to the test last night. I'm handling things pretty well though, only one or two breakdowns LOL. We've had issues BFing that I think is caused by a tongue tie but even though two doctors have confirmed it they won't do anything about it. She's gaining weight like a champ though, up to a whole 9 pounds! My friends all went back to nursing school today, and I'm kind of sad I'm not going back with them but I'm sure we made the right choice delaying this semester.

 

[honeysuede]

Af got me so I feel like a dick head for thinking I may have been pg, oh the ttc rollercoaster hey! I am ok though, I am lucky to have Jack and that's the most important thing

Kayla - sounds like Lucy is keeping you busy. It's a hard adjustment with any little one isn't it. I hope the bf problem settles for you.
And delaying the semester was the best choice I am sure xxx

 

[Jess19]

T so sorry af got you this cycle 0oo the joys of ttc lol. I'm sure youll be prego again in no time! Then it will be Ooo the joys of pregnancy lol

Kayla so glad to hear Lucy is gaining weight, quite well too! Did the hospital dr confirm that or her primary dr? You'd think the docs would want to correct anything that could hinder her feeding.
Its crazy how different kids can be, isn't it?! Charlotte amd Dom are def different but there's a 7yr gap so my memory is kinda fuzzy lol and even my SILs twins are completly different.
Youll have Lucy figured out in no time

hi harri, and welcome back to ttc....soon enough. can't wait! Ill be ttc by then too!

Nicole can't wait to see pics!

 

[honeysuede]

[Jess19]

Yes how is Laura? I'm keeping her in my thoughts and prayers.

 

[honeysuede]

Hi, how is everyone? Well tomorrow is my sister's wedding and I am sooo exited! She is staying at mine tonight and then tomorrow it'sall go! Jack has a cute 3 piece suit to wear.
I took him to get his had growth measured today and good news! it hasn't grown in 2 weeks so it looks like it is all ok. I am soooo happy.
Hope everyone is doing well
xxxxx

 

[Jess19]

T the pics from the wedding are lovely! Jack looks adorable!!!
How is everyone?!
Im kinda in a panic since DH confessed he wants another baby! I knew he wanted one eventually but I didn't think he ment now! Lol I had to explain to him that while I COULD be ovulating its most likely not the case right now. i need to have an established cycle in order for us to start ttc again.
But as long as im nursing Charlie its not going to happen.
I was thinking about it and as much as I would LOVE another baby I don't think we're ready for another.
Uh such a mix of emotions!

 

[MrsStutler]

Wow, Jess! Exciting about the hubby wanting another! My DH is now saying I will have to sweet talk him into having a third, and we had previously agreed on at least three kids

How is everybody? I feel like I haven't checked in for ages.

Roxas had his 18 month check up, I can't believe he is already a year and a half old! He's healthy as can be. 30lbs and 35in tall he's a total tank, just solid boy. Lucy is doing good although she is still having the feeding issues. The pediatrician who original referred us the ear, nose, throat doc saw us today and she was really surprised the ENT didn't want to clip it so I got a referral to another doctor in a nearby town. Hopefully he will be willing to just clip the darn thing since it's most definitely not getting any better. She gets really frustrated trying to get a good latch and it just makes for both of us to be cranky. She's also a night owl, wanting to stay up straight from midnight to 3 or 4 in the morning so I'm perpetually exhausted.

Not much else is going on for us here. Hoping for some cooler weather, the forecast says it's only supposed to be in the high 90's tomorrow

 

[waiting2c]

Hey all!! It's craz to think of roxas being 18 months already!!! So much has changed since then though, with Lucy coming along and everything too.

I brought a wedding dress today which is exciting for me!! Lots going on in the world of dev, waiting on a surgery date for a pegg (feeding tube to stomach) had a two day hospital stay for a nasal gastric tube trial this past week which failed due to tape allergies and dev screaming his head off whilst being fed. All in all that side is a bit of a downer at the mo but hey, things will get better someday.... Right?? Surely they must?

 

[honeysuede]

Hi everyone, hope you are doing well

Jess - I know what you man about it being daunting planning another baby, I think if we all thought about it too much it would never be the right time. You will know what the right thing to do is, trust your instincts

Kayla - Glad Roxas got on well at his 18 month check I hop Lucy is letting you have a bit more sleep

T - Yay for the wedding dress! But I am so sorry you are going through all of this with Dev, you are so strong and you're doing a grat job, just remember that sending hugs to you and little one, hope things get better real soon fr you

As for me and Jack we are doing well, I am going back to work thursday - eek!! It's 4 days a week and I only wanted 2-3 but at this stage I can't say no. Jack had his first sttling in day at the nursery today - he starts there 2 weeks tomorrow. Gonna be a big adjustmnt!! Also it's £180 for 4 days so very pricey. H had his 12 month check last week which went well As for TTC we missed my fertile days this month so at least I won't be symptom spotting and POAS every 2 mins

[Jess19]

T how exciting about the dress! Can you post a pic of it? So sorry things aren't looking so bright in Devs world you are such a strong woman and a wonderful mother and all he'll ever need

Kayla Roxas is nothing but solid boy!! Glad his check up went well Lucy is so adorable! I bet she can't get enough of her mamma morning and night! I hope the new Dr gets what needs ab to be done, done. Im sure things will go much more smoothly with eating and sleeping for her. But in the mean time you girls can stay up at night and watch qvc or something lol

Tracey congrats on going back to work, its a big adjustment be it 1 day or 4. Its always hard leaving them at daycare but before you know it Jack will adjust and love hanging out with the other kids.

DH and I have talked about me going back to work but it would never work out. The money I would make a week at work would basically be the cost to pay for child care for Charlotte all day and Dominic for a few hours after school. The roughly $50 extra left over I might have is not worth me being away from home.
Yet another reason im nervous about ttc but DH assures me we will find a way and be ok (which I know we will) just another thing to consider that's all
On that TTC note.....my best friend told me this weekend that she's going to start TTC soon! Her Dr told her to wait 2 years and MAYBE she could have another. She almost died having her other kids, her first she lost alot of blood and her second they controlled it but her Dr isn't sure if she wants her to have more, if she does this will be her last one we both have 2 kids but have never been prego together I end up pregnant after she has her babies. Her 2 years are up in January, her little girl will be 2 on the 10th and Charlie will be 1 on the 15th! She's going to talk to her Dr this week and get the ball rolling.
I really really want to be prego together. It might sound silly (DH thinks it is) but I know you ladies understand.

 

[honeysuede]

Hi ladies, how is everyone doing?
Jss - I understand about your BF, being bump buddies would be amazing, men don't get these things do they
Well Jack turns 1 tomorrow and I am all excited!! although sad as I have to work but I am leaving an hour early and my sis and her new hubby are making cakes etc for hista party bless
I am also due AF tomorrow, and hoping for instead but I kinda know it will be AF.

Hope you are all doing well xxxx

 

[Jess19]

Oh how exciting!! I can't believe he's one already!!!!
that does stink that you have to work but sounds like you have quite a special day planned for him
That would be super cool to get a bfp on his birthday! Sending you lots of sticky dust!!

 

[waiting2c]

Happy birthday jack!!!!!!

 

[Jess19]

hi how is everyone doing??

 

[waiting2c]

Hey!!! We are doing good. Just ticking along as per normal. How are you guys?

 

[Grumblebea]

Hi everyone! Quiet on here lately

 

[Jess19]

Very quiet here indeed. I feel its time to update lol
Well my body finally decided it was about time to start functioning again! So I guess that makes me fertile again! DH and I are going to start ttc again!
Im excited but a little nervous too idk its a bunch of emotions
esp because my best friend had a talk with her dr and she feels it would be best if she didn't have more kids, the risk is too high (but possible) if she did decide to take that risk. After thinking about it she decided she's not going to have any more children my heart aches for her
Im an emotional hormonal mess at the moment.....


Hope everyone is doing great!!!! Hope to hear this thread alive again soon

 

[MrsStutler]

It's been so long since I was able to sit at the computer, using my kindle or phone for BnB is SO frustrating, but at least I can keep updated a bit on Facebook.

Glad to hear everybody is doing good. I'm so excited to vicariously enjoy the fun of TTC again through you girls Fingers crossed for some BFPs in the near future! I keep having dreams that I'm pregnant again and for once in my life I'd rather it not be me that's preggo again! DH and I have been talking about maybe not having a third but we have plenty of time to think about it. I'm divided on it for now, I'd love a third but there are a lot of practical things to consider too.

Lucy finally got her tongue clipped and WOW what a difference. No more pain and she is so much happier. When she went for her 2 month check up the doctor who originally looked at me like I had three heads for suggesting she was tongue tied actually said he might consider referring more people who think there might be a problem. Apparently he thought there was no reason to do it, but since I told him how much things improved I changed his mind.

I'm not up to much besides just keeping Roxas out of trouble and keeping Lucy happy. She is finally sleeping a good 5 hours at night! It's finally cooling off here so I'm excited to get outside and have some fun. We are heading to Phoenix, AZ this weekend to watch my insane brothers compete in this Cross Fit competition and we are going to go to the zoo while we are there. Super excited for that!

to everybody!
