Yay. I got called in for jury duty! IV always wanted to b on a jury!
 
Not sure if I said so Sandy, but you look great.

Cassidy - at least you are progressing! Go move some heavy objects. Hope your sis has a swift delivery. I still think it's crazy that you both are having babies so close. How's her baby daddy situation?

Bb not sure about the burning situation. Did they dip your urine or actually test it?

Waves - hopefully your dr can help you with your anxiety. Have you started solids with Leah yet? What is she doing as far as moving?

AFM - my boobs are finally dead. Haven't pumped in 3.5 days. Yesterday was the most painful but I've been wearing a sports bra which helps. Ellie learned how to roll from back to belly the other day and now rolls within seconds of laying her down. Yesterday she was fussing in the livingroom and I was ignoring her bc I thought she was just fussing. Finally looked in and she had rolled under the chaise lmao. It was hilarious. I weighed her today and she weighs 15 pounds!!! That's over a 2 pound gain in a month! I think she had a growth spurt...she's been peeing through her diapers at night so tonight we are trying the huggies overnight diapers.
 
Yay Ellie-OMG she's getting so big!! :)

Cassidy-hoping your sis has a great delivery and that Zuri is right behind your new nephew!!

Nikki-usually people hate it, I always get excited for jury duty too!! LOL I can't believe Aila is 7 months already!! Time flies!!

Sandy-you look fantastic!
 
Rachel-so funny!! I left Kay in her bouncy seat to go wash bottles 10 feet away...and this is what I can back to!! She didn't make a peep! I really had like a mommy moment of "didnt I just leave her on the floor like that?!? Told DH it's time to start using the belts in things!! Haha

AFM-sorry I've been a little MIA-I am reading along but lost a very close high school friend this weekend to a heroin overdose and my aunt was in the hospital as well. So sad when people fall into such holes that they can't get out of. He was a smart, funny, good looking kid, but had been troubled for quite some time. Heartbreaking.

In other news-+OPK today-Dtd and currently marinating. Yes, we are nuts.

Cassidy you look fab.
Nikki I'd love to do jury duty, but I don't think they will ever let me do anything exciting. :(
Yay Ellie great job you growing peanut.
Kara awesome Fx for you and your marinating! Sorry about your friend and aunt.
 
Haha Kara that's hilarious. Ellie was trying to scoot out of her lounger pillow tonight so I think it's going up in the attic soon. And yes you are crazy! I just called my OB today to call in nuvaring for me. I want to wait a year. Maybe two. But fx for you!
 
Sorry about your friend Kara. Drugs are taking over and it's horrible
 
Thank you, it really is very sad!! 30 is way to young to pass so tragically.

Lol-I have nuvas sitting in my fridge!! If it happens cool, if it doesn't by October then we are waiting until next fall and that's TOTALLY ok too!! :) DH actually asked a few days ago if I was ovulating so I went to get some OPKs, it's nice that he's so into the process! Lol
 
Waves - hopefully your dr can help you with your anxiety. Have you started solids with Leah yet? What is she doing as far as moving?

Thanks. I hope so. It feels like it's getting out of control.

We just started cereal yesterday (the day before she hit 5 months.) I've only given it to her once each day and only a little bit. I'll probably start veggies in a week or two once she gets the hang of the cereal. As far as moving, she rolls both ways now so she's constantly flipping or rolling her way under the table or chairs. She's found her feet and is constantly grabbing them and waving them in the air. We think she's starting to teethe but can't see much on her gums yet.
 
Kara- so sry about your friend. My freshman year of college a good friend from high school died from heroin too. It was so painful! He was only 20!
 
Rachel they dipped and tested it. They also sent swabs to the hospital. I'm thinking maybe it's my medication?
 
My 30 week piccy! I look ready to pop! I don't think there is any stretch left in my skin 😁😳

Congrats brittney that's fantastic news. Have u told hubby ?
Amanda it's good it's been recognised and hopefully now you can get it under control.
Eeek good luck cass
Lovely bump sandy.
Kara you're so brave to be trying to ttc already. Will be lovely to have siblings so close in age
 
Good morning ladies!

Collette, you look fantastic! I hear ya! My belly button is SO shallow, I'm afraid it's going to pop out. My skin is stretched to the max. I had a very couple stretch marks from the first pregnancy, and they are starting to stretch at the tops. :( It's just so tight. I Don't even really care about the marks. You're getting close!

Cass, you look fantastic, too!! Hope your sis is doing well and things go quickly and smoothly for her. Hopefully Miss Zuri will decide it's her turn pretty soon! Glad you made some progress at your appointment though!

Kara, you ARE brave to be trying again! I don't blame you though. My brother, sister, and I are all within 5 years of each other. It was probably difficult at times, but nice, too. So sorry about your friend and your aunt. :( On a brighter note, your picture cracked me up! Can't believe she's big enough to do that!

Rachel, I can't believe Ellie is so big, either! My friend swears by Huggies overnights. She says they are great! I don't know what we will use for BC or if we will since I had such a hard time getting pregnant to start with, but I imagine so. I know I don't want a mirena or anything implanted though. I Don't want to potentially cause anymore scar tissue and make it harder IF we do decide to have another. Guess we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

BB, I hope you get some answers and relief sooooon! How awful to be miserable!

Waves, Leah sounds like she's getting so big, too!!

Nikki, ew to jury duty! I got called once, but I didn't want to do it. I hate the thought of having someone's future in my hands like that. What if I'm wrong?! I was excused since I knew the accused and the witnesses in the case. Awkward!

Katrina, I think this is your month. I'm just sayin!

Brittney, did you FRER?? Did you tell hubby??

AFM, so glad I have an appointment today. And ultrasound. Love seeing him. Such a relief for a little bit anyway. He was moving SO much last night, more than ever before and it was so constant and HUGE movements that I was convinced there was something wrong and he was in distress. How sad that I automatically jump to those type of conclusions?! Blessed are those who have never had experiences like some of ours for sure! Then I thought to myself, you need to shave your legs! (Not that I haven't been, but I have missed a few patches and it had been a day or two..) Now not that I can see anything at this point.. and I had my leg all propped up on the tub and that KILLED my sciatica. Like comparing it to my C-section pain which was a 10, this was a 7. I could barely walk! I almost fell down multiple times. It was awful. Hubby tried to make me go to the ER, but I'm like um.. no. Not going to the hospital until it's time to have this baby! Lol. So I took some Tylenol and went to bed with my hot rice pack. It's much better this morning (like a 3), but wowza. I was going to have to call off if it was still that bad because I couldn't move! I could barely walk and I could not bend over at all. Not even to feed the dog. So needless to say, my toes didn't get painted either. Time for a pedi before long I think.
 
Kara-So sorry about your friend...

That's pretty hilarious that she was on the floor and didn't cry or anything! Grayson was in the swing a few weeks ago and was fussing while I was doing something, I turn around and he is arched over the end of the swing! His head was still in, feet were out and belly was in the air! Scared the crap out of me...he now gets strapped into everything lol He's a back archer when he gets mad, so he somehow wiggles his way down every time.

I've always thought it would be kind of cool to do jury duty, but I've never had to so far.

I hate working! lol I just want to be with my babies all day and know what they are doing...
