TTC and Beyond!

[jury3]

Has anyone heard from Molly? Hope everything is ok...

For anyone who doesn't have fb, here was Sarah's post from this morning:

"He's here!!! Evan Dean was born at 2:45 am today weighing in at 8lbs 4 ounces and 20.5 inches long. He is absolutely perfect and we are all so in love!"


Congrats Sarah! Hope you don't mind me sharing

He's a little cutie.
Afm no temp this morning. I might just not temp for a few days I can't sleep and I think stressing about o has something to do with it.

 

[frsttimemama]

Thanks for sharing Julie!

Congratulations Sarah! So happy for you!

Katrina, I think that's totally reasonable. I understand about stressing about it! Bleh! Temping stinks!

Afm, I am still feeling kinda lousy. Must just be pregnancy. I had to work evenings last night, and I feel it! My lower back and hips are awfully sore, and I couldn't get comfy and get to sleep /stay asleep.

Nan died this afternoon. It was very peaceful and she was surrounded by family.

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

So sorry BB! My thoughts are with you and your family!

 

[asmcsm]

Yay! Congrats Sarah! Such a handsome little man

Sorry about your loss BB. Glad she was able to be surrounded by her loved ones though.

AFM, my pelvis is aching so much. It's not lightening crotch or pains in my cervix though. Wondering if maybe her head is starting to move down more because it feels like somethings grinding on the bones in my pelvis. Seems kinda early for that, but I have an apt today so they'll probably check her position again. Also have our water birth class tonight.

Congrats, Sarah! He is adorable!

Amanda, ouch! I hope you feel better!

Will try to catch up later. really behind at work from taking so much time off recently.

Had the d&c yesterday and i finally feel normal. almost immediately, the weepy crazy overwhelming feelings were gone. The procedure was really quick and easy. Painful cramping for about an hour afterwards and I feel fine today. Some spotting but not even enough to fill a liner. My ex came with me and it was really good to have him there, I was really appreciative of him. Now its time to move on. He is seeing someone else so there is no chance of us reconcilling. I'm heart broken but trying to accept it.

 

[asmcsm]

Amanda, glad that you're feeling normal and that your ex went with you for support even if there's reconciling between you. I hope that things turn around for you soon lady

Just found out my cousin is having another BOY So stoked. So far 2/3 of the babies being born about the same time as Lux are boys. Hoping for the trifecta and that my sister finds out she's having a boy on the 15th lol

 

[goldstns]

Bb- so sort hun! Glad u got to b there.

ash-yay! And feel better, but its what u get w pregnancy!

robert- glad u feel better. Stay positive like u always r!

 

[RobertRedford]

Yay for another boy, Ashlee! Few more days until you find out what your sister is hving...my fingers are crossed for boy! Sorry that you're in pain, that sounds really uncomfortable!

 

[RobertRedford]

I had this draft email going to my ex just about my thoughts, etc. I never intended on sending, just needed a place to put all of the thoughts spinning through my head down into words. Therapy helps a lot, as an outlet, but i still have a lot going through my head and would just jot it down. It was a very well composed thoughful and honest email. And then i accidentally sent it this morning.

whoops.

 

[morganwhite7]

Ash- I finally got a birthing ball and have been using it the past 2 days and am horribly sore too! Doc said she is very low so I'm sure that's the case for you too! Before this she had been still floating around super high. Urgh my hips and lower back feel like hell!

BB- So sorry sweets :/ sending love

Amanda- I'm sorry you feel that way but I think you should use this as your clean slate! Refresh and find yourself these next few months. You are beautiful and strong and will find a lovely man soon enough! LOL & oops on sending the email! Oh my!

For everyone who didn't see my frantic FB post lol, my widwife finally agreed to a sweep next Wednesday. I am now 3 cm and she said she thinks she felt HAIR on Marley's head! I wish she could tell what color! Lol. We have a lot of red-heads in the fam, so DH is hoping for that. But she said she is "really good at what she does" and thinks she'll put me into labor. She's making DH take off to come with me to take me home, she assumes with the constant contrctions I've been having (still 2-4 mins apart on today's NST) that my body will take over pretty fast! So hoping for an April 17th birthday girl! If not, the 23rd is still my last resort- lol. Plz God let this work!

I am SOOOO EXCITEDDD. She said they'll also do a growth scan before they strip membranes to see if she's 8 lbs yet, if so they may consider inducing earlier if she looks ready. This is frickin unreal, I think I am the happiest girl in the world today! And will be all of this week! I have been waitinggggg soooo long for this!

P.s. FRICK I just noticed- I have a PUMPKIN inside of me!!! Lol

 

[MrsAmk]

Im jealous you are ready to have her! I am in preterm labor again I hate this, having to hope and pray and TRY to keep my babies inside me. I am so uncomfortable, LOSING weight, and praying so hard this sweet boy will stay put for a while and be born healthy and strong. Dilated to 3, effaced 70% and super low down in my pelvis. Sigh

 

[RobertRedford]

Holy Crap Morgan! Youre so freaking close!! Thanks for the kind words. I'm feeling very optimistic and peaceful. what happens happens. out of my control now.

Ash, your ticker says that Lux is the size of a cucumber and its cracking me up. All the other fruits I understand.....but I just can't figure out how a baby is the size of a cucumber. length? just such an awkward comparison! lol.

 

[morganwhite7]

Molly I'm so sorry.... I hate that you are having to worry. Either way precious baby will be ALRIGHT. Seems like they're monitoring you VERY closely, and if he does decide that now is the time, a short stay in the NICU like baby Ellie will be all he needs to grow strong and healthy. So thankful this didn't happen earlier, he is strong now and can do this! Praying things calm down, I'm sorry you guys are being put through this :/ Lots of love!
