TTC and Beyond!

[Cowgirl07]

I feel much better today thanks ladies.
Sandy can we see a picture?
Rachel I'm glad you found some deals.

 

[goldstns]

Awesome Rachel! We will do the same this garage sale season!

dh is ready for my mom to move out. I totally appreciate how long he's lasted.... I couldn't do that with his mom! But I don't know how to say it to mom. Dh said he'd like something to be in the works before he regrets her...and I agree with that. Any ideas how I say something?

 

[clynn11]

Rachel- I love yard/garage sales. I saw the pic you posted, such a great deal!!!!

Glad you're feeling better katrina!

Nikki- did you guys talk about this beforehand? How long she'd be staying, etc? Maybe mention helping her look for another place? Or look up some places beforehand and tell her you saw some great places online.. etc. I'm sure she's expecting it to come at some point.

I agree with Katrina - we need a bump pic from Sandy!

Ugh Ellie cluster feeds in the evenings and is so fussy unless she's attached to the boob. DH wants to give her formula before bed to get her to last longer between feedings. She's been feeding at 11, 3am, then up at 6:30-7ish

I would love more sleep but I feel like its selfish. I may try it tonight while DH is at work just to see if he is right. I dunno, is that selfish of me?

 

[Cowgirl07]

No I don't think it's selfish.
Tomorrow I start round 2 of femara, I hope this bug doesn't make the side effects worse.

 

[goldstns]

Cassidy- great ideas. We talked about her staying til fall, but she said the other day her friend is separating from her dh and wants to get a place with mom...i said go for it. However, doesn't seem fast moving. I might ask how that's going?

rachel-that used to be alias schedule. Then she dropped the 11pm one. However I made her 9pm feed her bedtime in crib and I went to sleep. The last month she's pushed up the 9pm bed time to 8pm and pushed her 3am feed to 4am....so I get more sleep. However the truth is i go to sleep when she does...even if its 830pm. Cuz she's usually up by 6/7am. It gets easier soon! But if u wanna try formula you can. Or have dh do the 11pm feed with pumped milk and u can go to bed early. If u do formula don't over feed her. We did the 24 hr formula feed when she had jaundice and we over fed her and dh had to be up w her all night cuz she was puking all night.

 

[goldstns]

Oh rachel- I meant to also say Alia cluster feeds all night. My aunt just asked if we can get together Saturday, I said yes but lunch is best. I said that specifically because Alia likes to be attached to my boob at night. My inlaws come over one week night a week and bring dinner...sometimes I feel bad cuz Alia is so fussy because she's not attached to the boob all night. I literally come home from work and take my top off, get the boppy out, put Alia on it....and that's my night on the couch.

 

[TTCaWee1]

Glad I'm not the only one. It's so frustrating. I hope they grow out of it soon

If she's anything like Tristan no amount of extra milk/formula will help. I bought some bedtime milk for Tristan which is meant to be more filling but it didn't work. He just liked to feed.

AFM - I don't know what's going on, I've had no real temperature shift but I'm pretty sure I've ovulated. I had cramping, HSO cervix and EWCM. Now my CM has changed to creamy and my cervix is very much how it usually is after O. Also my boobs are agony, this has only ever happened after O. Any ideas why I wouldn't be getting a temperature shift if I have ovulated?

 

[goldstns]

Bb- sometimes the temp shift takes a few days. Or maybe thermometer is broken? Test under hot water. Also do u test in mouth or vag?

 

[brunettebimbo]

Vaginally. I have had it 10 months so maybe time for a new one!

 

[frsttimemama]

I was thinking it probably is about time for a picture. I will get one up tonight or in the morning. I may have to work a double today so we will see how that goes.

I'm choking down my first (half) cup of coffee since early January because I don't think I am gonna survive this early Monday otherwise. Ha.

 

[goldstns]

Alia has been up all night...wonder how my day will be...not sure I'll make it.

 

[TTCaWee1]

Oh Nikki that sucks. Ellie actually slept through her 11pm feeding. Didn't wake up until 3:30ish. So I bf her then gave her a bath, then gave 2 oz of formula then she passed out. I'll try it tonight but bf before and after the bath to see if I get the same results. Don't want to tell DH he was right yet....

Here is an awesome video for everyone...

[CantHrdlyWait]

Morning ladies.. I hope everyone had a great weekend...

Julie- So glad to hear from you and hear you are all doing well!!

I'm just popping in, not a ton of time to update!

Not sure if anyone saw, but Molly had Gabriel this weekend. I saw a picture on facebook.

 

[Cowgirl07]

Congratulations Molly! I saw the picture but wasn't sure if she posted yet.
Bb I agree maybe it's time for a new one.
Afm I'll be taking my first femara this morning. The weather here is awful and we lost another calf last night. Same reason as the first, poor little mite was bawling when dad found him.

 

[wavescrash]

Nikki - Leah didn't sleep much last night from 3:30 on so I'm right there with you. I'm dead tired right now.

 

[goldstns]

Ugh sry waves. Nights like these suck! Soda is what will get me through the day. I think alia's belly hurt here cuz she had lots of gas. I think I'll blame the Indian food (NO offense) I ate Saturday because she's never had it and nore have I. It was way yummy, but I think we both had issues eating it. Poor baby!

congrats molly!

rachel- glad it was a great night. What time did u do the bath routine?

 

[goldstns]

Rachel- I cried! Thx for posting that! IV been having a rough morning cuz dh said he might have to go out of town over mother day weekend. He's trying to be home by sat night, but isn't sure. Its hard cuz its my first moms day, and more then anything id like to be recognized by him because there have been plenty of hard parts these past few months and plenty of sleepless nights where IV let dh sleep and IV been by alia's side the whole time. Plenty of times dh couldn't handle her being fussy, but I HAD to accept it because..im mom.
