[goldstns]

Bb- I wish I could join u on vacation.. I could use it. Enjoy every minute. Hope Tristan's feel good.

Katrina- cheering u on this cycle. Hoping this is it. R u in the bd phase? If so when bd who finishes last?

hi mirolee.

afm, I'll have to figure out these family dinners with alias new schedule. Usually Alia is easy to put to sleep after a feeding, but she was dosing off and then unintentional someone or a dog would make noise and wake her. Eventually I put her in her crib and it took her an hour and a few paci retrievals till she finally went to sleep. However, she was silent for that hour, so it could have been worse. The awesome part of the night is this is her first waking and its 245am....she last ate at 7pm and I went to bed just after 8pm. I hope this is a start of getting back to her old sleeping patterns. If so...then it was a growth spurt, since I'm told those last about 3 days or her new napping and early bed time is really helping.

Oh judgy MIL's. Kara that would piss me off so bad. It would have been hard to keep it as nice as you did! My MIL never talks to us. She's to busy. We've seen her once since January, so luckily I don't have to worry about that too much. On the downside, my own mother is MORE than enough to make up for it. I know she's just trying to help, but she needs to let me do stuff MY way.

Colette- Looking good! sorry to hear about the blood disorder!

Another OB appointment this am.. the one on Tuesday was an "emergency" one because of all that crap with my BP. I really don't feel like going back. They are going to do the same stuff they did Tuesday, but they wanted me too, so I guess i'll stop complaining!

I am so glad that one MIL lives two hours away and doesn't like me enough to even bring me up in conversation, and the other lives in Moscow! They may or may not say something to OH about our parenting, but I so rarely talk with them one on one that I'm hoping OH has enough smarts to sensor any comments they might have.

Happy mommy over here!! Currently doing a 610am feed....which is her norm. This mommy slept for 9 hr with one wake up feed. I pray this routine stays.

collett- sry bout the blood disorder. Hopefully its not too scary. It sounds scary.

I think I need to apologize to my inlaws....ill have to talk with dh, but I was so stressed last night.

Femara is going well Colette. I actually ovulated correctly last cycle. I have had minimal side effects and am on my last day of it for this month. I'm entering bd time Nikki. I say it's about 50/50 who finishes first. When we aren't ttc it's normally me, but scheduled sex makes me less into it.
Nikki I hope she's back to good sleeping patterns
Britt I hope the appointment goes well today.

 

[frsttimemama]

I'm late to the convo, but I had the Tdap last pregnancy and will again so baby is born with antibodies. Hubby is up to date. Anything I can do for this little one!

Collette, you look great!

Nikki glad she slept well! Sorry about in-law issues.

So sorry to hear you guys have in-law issues. I am blessed with pretty great in-laws which is great considering they live down the road just a tad!

Thank goodness it is Friday. I am EXHAUSTED and emotional about everything! ! It's ridiculous really. Lol. My poor Hubby. This mama can't keep working 60+ hour weeks. My ankles and legs are sad and swollen.

 

[frsttimemama]

Katrina, fx this is your cycle!! Glad s/e are minimal.

Britt, better safe than sorry even if it is annoying. Good luck!

I'm so ready for my ultrasound next week!

 

[Cowgirl07]

Sandy Yay. Is that the gender ultrasound? Eek I agree with your Dh maybe you should cut back at work a bit.

 

[goldstns]

Katrina- the cycle we got preggo was the first cycle I finished first and we got pregoo!

 

[frsttimemama]

Yes it is Katrina! I'm excited to find out

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

Fx for you Katrina on this cycle!! I really think this is going to work!!

Sandy - So excited to hear about your US coming up!! I bet you are so excited!

afm - I had that thing again this morning where my heart is beating all fast again. I knew my BP was going to be up, so I tried to relax waiting at the OB office, but it's hard when your heart is racing.

When she took it, it was 150/79 !! The nurse said "well.. that's a little high. I'm sure we will need to take it again before you leave" So I ended up sitting for like 25 minutes waiting on the midwife. She came in and said she was concerned with my BP. I told her I was too, and that i'd been in earlier in the week because of it. She said she was worried about Pre E and that she wanted me to do a 24 hour Urine collection to test my proteins. She left the room and came back and said they we NOT going to do it (because my urine has always looked fine), but she wanted me to come in next friday instead of waiting two weeks. I am fine with that, I'm honestly getting a little concerned. So they made me sit for awhile and when they took it again it was 136/72 which they seemed much happier with, but it still seems high to me. Before I was pregnant, I was always 110/60, so ALL these numbers seem high to me. I've had a very normal and healthy pregnancy. I could do without all this at the end!! I just want to have a healthy baby in my arms.

 

[Cowgirl07]

I'm glad it seemed lower the second time. It's good that they moved your appointment up.

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

I'm glad too. Makes me feel a little better being seen each week, especially if I am uncomfortable with all this. It makes me nervous.

 

[Kiamaria83]

Thanks girls. I'm ok and to be honest I dont even know what it means. If there are any medical ladies here maybe you know? I have a cold Antibodies in my blood and I would need heating in the case of a transfusion . I of course went on google and immediately diagnosed myself with some form of cancer. My hubby keeps calling me a reptile!
Britt hope you're ok. Take it easy.
Nikki sounds like you guys are getting into a good routine. Stick to it even when the teeth start coming.
Sandy exciting for your gender scan.
Katrina praying for you this cycle
Bb have a great hol.

 

[brunettebimbo]

I'm home

Sorry if I've missed anything big, hope your all ok

 

[frsttimemama]

Collete, I have never heard of that!

I think we are going camping tomorrow.

 

[Cowgirl07]

Me neither. But I'm not in the medical field.
This weekend is packed. Saturday 8 am someone is coming to look at bulls, 1 pm bridal shower, 730 pm dinner with bil and his gf. Sunday moving my cattle.

 

[frsttimemama]

Ours feels packed, too. Tonight I got a few groceries and cleaned the camper. Now laundry and house work. Tomorrow garage saling and camping and Sunday cleaning and laundry. All I WANT to do right now is sleep though. I predict an early bedtime.

 

[Cowgirl07]

Oh I want sleep. So bad I don't know if it's the femara or what but I'm dead tired. Glad Dh is driving tonight. I was going to sleep in this morning but someone called at 7 to say they want to come at 8 am tomorrow to look at cattle. They were lucky I remembered how to talk.

 

[frsttimemama]

Me too!! But I hate sleeping away my time off, especially when it's nice. Tomorrow should be almost 70.
