TTC and Beyond!

[brunettebimbo]

Eurgh, I'm getting some pains on my left side and the odd one shooting down towards my lady bits. They are quite painful so I'm beginning to panic. I have trapped wind and feel slightly constipated so hoping it's just that!

cramping isb't unusal, BB, and it could also be gas pains. Be sure to stay very hydrated.

Is anyone else getting the creepy ads for chronic consipation on BnB today? Or am I the only lucky one?

Nope I have mattress ones, I want a new mattress so bad!

Lucky! I got a new mattress recently and love it. It makes such a big difference in my sleep! I went from tossing and turning to sleeping through the night, out cold. I got a tempurpedic and financed it- I will basically be paying it off for the rest of my life, pretty much, but its well worth the $80/month.

i have no ads today... but sometimes on my iphone, i dont even try to open BnB. the ad will take up the whole screen and i dont know how to find the "x". SOOOO annoying!

 

[brunettebimbo]

Thanks Amanda I took some Windeze and it seemed to pass.

I am so scared to take my last test tomorrow. With my last loss I took a test the day AF was due and got my BFP then tested 48hours later and the test was barely visible and started bleeding that afternoon. Hoping so hard it doesn't happen again.

did you guys ever find it weird/funny on the TTC when there were creepers? i know we couldnt make it really closed, but still..... i was like, "who dat lookin' ovah heah!?" when i saw new names at the bottom.
i am skipping the gym today; i went yetserday, did the elliptical (very slowly) for 45 mins. i find my outfit to be ridiculous to hilarious, as i'm wearing a cami under my workout shirt since the shirt is no longer long enough. i was going to buy a new "maternity" workout shirt the other day but no, $30 is too much. i will just get some long wife beaters or something. and i havent really felt much movement today, but i just had a hot chocolate and choc chip cookie, so i'm hoping for a little sugar rush.
tonights dinner is shrimp and pasta and pesto, i believe. i did Russian last night, so i can either a) work on my sisters resumse or b) do some cross stitch tonight. undecided.
what are your plans for the evening?

 

[brunettebimbo]

I'm off to bed It's nearly 10pm here.

 

[Cowgirl07]

Wife beaters? I know we had some stalkers who never posted.

 

[goldstns]

Ugh. I need advice... I'm not a fan of mu dad. Mom and dad r getting divorced. Well dad wants to be in Alia life. Which is hard for me because it means I have to be apart of it all. He doesn't know that I don't want to be close with him. He thinks we r just fine. So I feel like I am just fulfilling my duties by letting him see Alia. I almost feel like he is asking to see her to fulfill his as well. So Friday we r seeing each other. How do I "nicely" make sure its a short visit?

 

[Cowgirl07]

Well what time are you meeting? You can meet before her bed time and say she has a routine etc. Maybe say you have plans afterward?

 

[brunettebimbo]

I'm not sure. Just don't do anything your unhappy with. To cut a long story short I only found my Father in my early twenties. Things were great. He then started to screw up. Picked his girlfriend over all his kids. She was nuts and needed locking up. He didn't come to my wedding. He didn't see Tristan until he was 4 months old and has seen him probably 3 times since. I have him one chance and he blew it by picking the psycho over Tristan. He missed his only Grandchild's christening so I cut ties because it's best all round.

yes, I find the creepers weird. I wonder what they get out of reading our losed forum. must be hard to follow, lol! We see you down there, lookie loos

I wear lululemon to work out for the most part, mainly because it wicks away sweat and fits so well but recently have been working out in the Target brand mossimo long and lean tank tops. they're long enough to be maternity (i know lots who wore them all throughout their pregnancy) and theyre $10. Perfect for the gym!

I'm going to spin tonight, round two for the day. then going to bed early Shrimp sounds super yummy, I may have to make something with shrimp in it now!

wife beaters are tank tops. like guy undershirt tank tops.

 

[Cowgirl07]

I call them white beaters.

 

[goldstns]

Cowgirl thx for the idea. However since mom lives we us, he only will come during day when she's not around and since I take every other Friday off work to be with Alia he planned that out.

bb- I'm really close with dads family, so its hard to just remove him. However, he is a money moocher, thinks he's better then everyone/everything, verbally abused mom and me growing up and cheated on mom. So all around a bad guy that I DONT want Alia learning from.

 

[goldstns]

Maybe I'll just say I'm exhausted so I need it to be a short visit. If he gets mad, I don't really care!

 

[RobertRedford]

Nikki, you're the mom now, you call the shots. I don't think anyone will question your decisions. If you want to only have a short visit, then simply say so. Maybe, as things progress, you can reevaluate in the future. Shes your child, and you make the decisions for her right now. Maybe try to set the visit an hour before feeding, or something that gives you an out and an easy way to depart and end the visit?

What Amanda said, your baby your house and your the boss!
I've been having some major guilt about not getting pregnant lately, I don't think my impending birthday is helping any. I am sure someone will ask about having children.

I'm so sorry hun. you have NOTHING to feel guilty about. You're not letting anyone down by not being pregnant right now, you have no control over this and can't hold yourself responsible. You've been doing everything right and trying your best. Keep your head up.

If someone asks, its a really person and sensitive topic, and awfully rude of them, even if they don't know that you're trying. I can't remember where I saw it, but there was a fantastic article circulating about this exact topic. I will have to find it for you.

Nikki-I totally understand. You could use a nap as an excuse. Tell him it's time for your nap and Alia's nap.

My dad was a meth user and was abusive towards my mom growing up. She finally got the strength to leave. He tried to keep a relationship with us kids, but he was back and forth with girlfriends and with still using. It took my gpa getting really sick and passing away for him to get it together. He is finally clean and trying to reconnect with us. It's awkward meeting with him though bc we don't have much to talk about. We usually take him out to lunch so we don't have to stay long. He is so excited about the babies though. He keeps talking about cleaning up a bedroom so we can stay the night, but I don't see that happening. I feel bad though bc he's at least trying.

Katrina-Don't feel guilty! You are doing all you can. Even better, you guys are taking the steps to see what's going on. I have a feeling you are going to be pregnant really soon!
