Re: TTC Tuesday
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 4 months - 19 weeks
How do you feel? Sooo tired. Oh, and I'm getting a cold, yuck.
Any Milestones this week? 4 month pediatrician appt. was yesterday. He is 17# 3 oz and 26.5 inches long. We found a a new practice and like them so much better than the last one. Shots suck, but the helped him sleep a little better last night.
Cycle/Month: 7/7
CD/DPO: CD 31/12 DPO
W2O or 2WW? 2WW
Testing plans: waiting for AF until the end of the week, then using a HPT
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: D keeps telling me he hopes I'm pregnant and I'm like "yeah, me too dude"
Cycle/Month:2/2
CD/DPO: CD8
W2O or 2WW? W2O
Testing plans: none
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: we havent decided if we are holding off TTC until Dec/Jan so I can get settled into my first school year with a new group of kids, I will accumulate more sick days, not have another summer baby, etc. Working in a school its great to have summers off, but being a guidance counselor we do the majority of our work at the end and beginning of the school years and over the summer as far as scheduling goes...or just say F it and keep trying.
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 14 months+
How do you feel? blah, i've been over snacking and i need to stop it
Any Milestones this week? little princess finally took her first steps in the last week and I was finally able to record it last night=)
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? i need to update my siggy, but who has time, i dont even have time to shower or sit down and eat dinner....
How many weeks: 7w2d
How are you feeling? Ok. I've had a headache for the last 4 days and it was so bad on Saturday night that we had to leave the Kings Of Leon concert early. I was really looking forward to that concert so I was really, really upset. The tiredness hasn't gone away, but I'm not cramping as much anymore. Nausea also seems to have lessened.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I got a call from my doctor on Friday that my progesterone level dropped so now I'm on suppositories which kinda sucks. I'm scared that it was low all along and I should have been taking progesterone since two weeks ago. I have an appt with my new OB tomorrow and I'm hoping she'll want to do another u/s just so I can make sure baby is still ok.
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 37w3d
How are you feeling?great! Lost my keys in the front lawn though without realizing it. Glad DH found them!
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Can't wait to go to the Big E tonight!!! (New England's version of a state fair!)
So...pretty much no one believes I will make it 'til October, except for me and my midwife who think I'm going to have a big baby...(I've seen pictures of my mom...and she made it 2 days past her due date with me...and looked 10x bigger than this so I'm not shocked. I was nearly 10lbs...)
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 29
How are you feeling? I'm at home from work today I just have no energy and feel gross. Taking the day to rest.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Just waiting for a call back from the county so I can find out about having an in home daycare once Chalupa Batman comes. I'm so excited for the chance to stay home with him!
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 24
How are you feeling? Baby keeps stomping on my bladder and my feet are swollen but otherwise I'm feeling alright.
Rants/Thoughts? The doctor officially changed my due date to December 31, 2014 (in line with my last menstrual cycle date) after a second growth scan today. The growth scan showed around Jan 3, 2015. It was set for Jan 12, 2015 from the first scan from my first appt.
Short version: 26 hours after water broke, 3 hours of pushing, baby heart beat dropping during contractions and not moving down no matter what I did... Eliza Mae was born at 2:04 PM via c section.
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 39 weeks tomorrow!
How are you feeling? Good. Had some pain in my lower back/tailbone this afternoon, but it went away after a while, thankfully.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Here's last week's bump pic
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 5 weeks
How do you feel? Tired. Happy, my doctor did not clear me to return to work, 4 more weeks home with my peanut!
Any Milestones this week? Sleep regression. She went from sleeping well at night to fighting sleep with all her might. Then I started the awful habit of her sleeping with us. She sleeps and for long periods of time. I barely sleep for fear of rolling onto her. Tonight we're trying to get her back into the cradle and stay in the cradle, but she is refusing to go to bed.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Am I crazy for driving about 40 minutes to a Gap, Carters and Lord & Taylor who definitely have the items/sizes that I need to exchange some clothes for O? I am really about to tomorrow...
@Danaocny I make sure I am in a position that I can't roll onto her either, but we have a small bed so space is limited. You are right, sleep is better, regardless of where it is. Last night she slept in the cradle for almost the whole night, except while being fed. I think we brought her into bed around 6 am. I think I'm the problem, I give in and bring her in bed quickly. After the move when we get a bigger bed, I might buy one of those bed co-sleepers.
