TTC and Beyond!

[CantHrdlyWait]

I agree with Sandy!! Giving a child a chance and a family when they REALLY need one is truly amazing and I completely admire people that do it!

 

[goldstns]

Katrina I respect your decision....just a random question....would u consider it if inlaws paid for ivf?

 

[Cowgirl07]

I might consider it, but to be honest I don't think I would change my mind. Besides they are still in massive debt and are in their 60s. So they don't have the money anyway.

Katrina-That's none of their business! You guys have to do what's best for you. Biological or not, it shouldn't matter. DW and her family aren't biologically related to Grayson and Olivia but they love them just the same. That's very sad they feel that way. I'm guessing they'd get over once there was a child though...

Awww Molly, please don't beat yourself up. There's absolutely nothing you did that caused those things and your baby boy is lucky to have a momma that lies him so much.

Katrina, we've talked about your decision to try adoption if you hadn't conceived after a while before and I think it's such a wonderful idea. I understand wanting to have your own biological child but I think it's great that you and DH want to help a child that doesn't have loving parents to raise him/her. It's too bad that your in-laws don't see it that way. Any child would be so lucky to call you mommy and while I do hope you are able to have a biological child I think that you'd be doing such an amazing thing for some other child if you adopt.

AFM, rash still spreading...bleh....however on a more possibly exciting note, today I've been getting some Braxton hicks but also some pressure and cramps in my groin and upper thigh area as well as every time I've gone to pee today I've had a bowel movement which is insanely more than normal. Hope hope hoping that this means baby girl will be making her way out soon!

Fx for you, Ashlee!

Happy Friday ladies! Another week down for me! Only one more week til V-day && 16 or less til we meet out little guy! He's moving SO much now, it's crazy. It went from 0 to 100 over night more or less. I'm already in love

 

[frsttimemama]

I haven't "craved" much, but this morning, I woke up and was starving for donut holes and chocolate milk. My awesome hubby drove me today since he got up.early, and stopped to get me some. Yum!! Breakfast of champions..

 

[wavescrash]

Ashlee, I could be remembering wrong because it's been 2 years but I'm pretty sure with Hannah I had pains in my upper thighs in the days leading up to her labor/delivery. Good luck.


AFM - Super sleep deprived because Leah just kept flailing and kicking in her sleep all night and she still sleeps right next to me in the Rock n Play. I have a nasty sleep deprivation headache and we're all out of Tylenol/Ibuprofen and of course Hannah's being a little shit this morning and of course I have to work at 3. OH works til 5 so he'll pick them up when he gets out but today is track & field day for my 8 year old to celebrate the end of the school year and my mom is a volunteer. So I have to drive the girls to Autumn's school which is further away than my mom's house so I have to leave here at 1:45 to make sure I get to work on time at 3 and I'll likely have to wake Hannah from her nap to leave on time. AND our cable got shut off today because bills are expensive and I don't know where the hell all our money went.

Leah's talking a lot more lately, still really sucks at tummy time, now is taking 6oz bottles every 4 hours and sleeping from 8-9pm until 6-7-8am. She's 12 weeks as of yesterday. Lost her health insurance because I suck at life so I have to hurry and apply for food stamps/Medicaid because her next appointment is in July and I'm broke and got kids to feed. And since the school year is coming to an end, Autumn's moving in this summer which is another mouth to feed and frankly we can't afford it. UGH life...
