Lost the internet, have not been out, spent 6 weeks in NICU! It has been a crazy ride! Water broke on August 16th at 30 weeks, held baby in for 2 weeks until 32 weeks. Princess Gianna was born on August 30th at 32 weeks, she was due on October 22nd. She weighed 4 lbs and 12 oz, 17.4 inches long! She was on ventilator for 12 hours and then moved to oxygen. After a 6 week NICU stay, she came home. I have been able to strictly breastfeed, although I had to pump in NICU. She is now 4 1/2 months old and perfect! She rolled over for the 1st time a couple of days ago! Thank you all for the support while I was trying and while I was pregnant. I wish nothing but the best for ALL of you.
JASMINE....if you are on here, please inbox me @ [email protected]. I can also be found on facebook Teal Fitzpatrick Ramirez!!! Please feel free to come check on pics of Gianna, that goes to all of you!!!! Good luck and alot of baby dust!!!

She's beautiful!!! So happy to hear from my bump buddy!! I knew everything was just fine and you were busy with your new lil princess. I will try to find you on FB, but I don't get on there much at all. I haven't loaded many pics of Eli on my macbook yet and not too sure how to with my phone but I'll try to later if I can get a spare minute. I have one on my avatar you can see though, but I have some beautiful ones of him smiling I can't wait to upload. He keeps me busy as I'm sure you know all to well and I find myself putting off these little tasks when I get a little free time. I'll check in on you soon though.

Fluter- I hope your surgery goes well! I know I need to get this baby weight off now since it's been three months and I haven't lost much. I gained 60 and have only cut that number in half, but all the good holiday food I've been cooking hasn't helped. I need to get serious ASAP!! Maybe putting on weight is why you haven't conceived yet. I've heard many women say they got their BFP after losing some weight and getting their BMI down or are you completely done with TTC? I hope you haven't given up all hope yet. Oh and that's wonderful news that your going back to school. I loved it! I'm sure you will too.

JoJo- Hope you have a very easy labor!!! Glad you still get your VBAC and I hope the snow doesn't hinder you in any way. And thanks for getting my message to Crystal!

Good luck to the other pregnant mommies!!

Praying for the rest of you ladies TTC and WTT. Sending you lots and lots of

Me too, Shay!! I answered her back asking if she knew the hair and eye color. She said red hair and green eyes. My oh has red hair. Thats not something you see often. He has blue eyes. Blue/green run in my family. I have brown eyes and hair. What are the chances of that?

You ladies ROCK! You are such a great supportive group. Thanks for listening to my rambles. As far as TTC, IDK. It's been a long road. I'm rounding 3 years in March since TR. I kinda set an age limit. I said I wouldn't ttc past 35. (it's just a personal choice for myself, not trying to offend anyone) I will be 35 at the end of April so since I'm having WLS I don't see me TTC in that year. I'm just going to live my life and what will be will be for now. I guess I really don't have an answer to that one way or the other. I think my husband and I have concluded we are not one of the lucky ones, and that's ok. It was just hard to swallow because I'm not the type to not get what I want. I try really hard to reach my goals, but I feel like I've done all I could. It was heart breaking to say the least.

When you least expect it, it will happen! A lady at my church went in to have a tummy tuck after losing a LOT of weight and on the table they cancelled the surgery SHE WAS PREGNANT!!! Her only son was 19 and wow what a surprise her lil angel was!!! I will keep you in my prayers for both WLS and baby!!!

It will happen when you least expect it to Flutter

My mom has a friend who had her tubes tied for 8 years, and whose husband had gotten a vasectomy 10 years before they met. Neither of them had them reversed, but about 3 years ago, they found out she was pregnant while she had gone for a physical exam. They now have a healthy, two and a half year old daughter.

 

[cj72]

Aw, Flutter

 

[jasminep0489]

Fluter- Yeah that's the best way. Just go on with your life and what will be, will be. Like you said, you have done everything you could do. Well, maybe you could push that age back a couple of years and just let whatever happen. I mean is 35 set in stone for you or are you a little flexible? I am 36 and there is no big difference I've seen except the whole "advanced maternal age" thing starts at 35 but I personally see no big deal in 34 and 35. like it's some magic number within the medical community. Anyways, it's all your decision but you never know and I would hate to see you close the book on TTC. I guess I just want everyone to get their little bundles of joy.

Brandi- Now that's beating the odds!!! Wow!!

My OBGYN and his wife had a baby at 40 so he told me not to give up before then (she was 40 when she found out not when she had it)

 

[jojo1972]

I'm 40 now and don't think its too old x

 

[jasminep0489]

Not sure why they came up with 35 as being the number to be "AMA" but like I said, it's just the medical community's magic number. I hated seeing those 3 letters every visit on my papers from OB. It's much more common now to have babies well into your 40's so there are lots more "AMA" mommas out there now to join us.

And actually ACOG changed AMA to age 40 or older a few years ago but many are stuck with 35. Also your risks for birth defects and chromosomal abnormalities do not start to increase until 37.

 

[GalvanBaby]

That is great to hear Mnj. I was worried about that. I told OH that we would not be having a baby after 35 because of the risks, but I am 6 months away from 35. I have now been forced to change my age limit. I know a lot of women who had babies at 40-42 and they are all very healthy, btu I was still scared of the risks.

 

[cj72]

I'm 40 Just let someone try to say I am AMA! Haha! Got some more bd incase Im o'ing late. I hope this is my lucky cycle I started trying at 38.

 

[stickybean4]

Haha AMA. We are all still young. I'm 39 and TTC number 5. My sister had a healthy bb girl at 42. No complications whatsoever.

 

[momsbaby]

Reading about the age limit made me think of what my OH told me. He said we will keep trying no matter if we're 80 LOL. I told him my baby making machine wouldn't be working at that age. Just glad to know he doesn't want to quit anytime soon.

 

[jonnanne3]

I didn't even start trying until I was 35! Then we became pregnant with our precious miracle at the ripe ole age of 39! Addisyn is perfectly healthy! She was full term and weighed in at 7 lbs 14 oz. She was my smallest, but only by a few oz! My pregnancy and delivery was the best out of all four of them! I gained 19 lbs from start to finish! I had gestional diabetes with her, but it wasn't bad. My sugar was barely over the limit throughout the whole pregnancy, but just barely! I didn't complain about it though, because I had a scan weekly!
So, the whole 35 thing being the cut off point, IMO, is mybe something that you should revisit and maybe push it back a few years. I told my husband that if we didn't get pregnant with our forever baby by 40 (me turning 40 not him, he is 5 years younger than me) then I was done. We had 5 miscarriage before Addisyn, so that is why that was my "cut off" age. And that was at my husbands request.
Thinking of you all!

 

[jasminep0489]

The one good thing the whole AMA tag got me was alot of scans as they put me in a higher risk category which like Anne said, I loved getting to see my baby as often as I did. Me, personally, I think having him at this age is so rewarding. I just love it!! I have so much more patience and I just love every little minute of this. I cherish it more because I know how fast my other two grew up so I really don't want to miss a minute of it now. Don't get me wrong I loved my teens when they were this age but being older and hopefully a little wiser now, its so much different. What do you other TR baby mommas think? Is it different for you this time around?
