Re: TTC Tuesday
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 3 weeks and 1 day
How do you feel? Tired, but pretty good overall. My left nipple is killing me though! I have blisters and it's super tender, and I think my supply is going down on that side because of it. I just ordered a different size flange and I hope that fixes the problem.
Any Milestones this week? She is definitely getting bigger. She was up almost a pound from her birth weight last week and she feels and looks bigger. I wish I could stop time and have her stay this small for longer, but I'm also excited to see how she is as she gets older.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? My poor girl has thrush and has to be on antibiotics. I feel terrible giving it to her because she hates it. She has to be on it until next Thursday, but it's already looking better.
Cycle/Month: 15/15
CD/DPO: CD 6
W2O or 2WW? w2o
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: Last month when my period came I broke down and sobbed on my way to work. I had to sit in the parking lot for a few minutes before I was ready to go inside the building. This month when my period came I was barely disappointed. Although, I am disappointed I'm not going to have a 2015 baby because D and I wanted to get our baby dedicated at church by the current pastor but he is retiring at the end of the year:(
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 9 months.
How do you feel? Drained. That's for its own post though, this is work related.
Any Milestones this week? She stopped giving kisses for about a month but started again. Dada is now daddy and she calls me mom. She is all over the place moving around. I can't think of anything new that's she's doing.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? She is all over her room. You blink and she's in another spot. Her favorite game to play is take every book off the book shelf. When you tell her to stop, she stares at you as does it. I wonder if she's looking for a specific book because yesterday after she took about 15 books off the shelf, she picked one up and opened it.
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 1
How do you feel? Feeling good.
Any Milestones this week? We had our first vomiting baby experience this week. Poor baby
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? I cannot wait for him to go to the allergist. I think we may be adding dairy to his list of allergies/intolerances. I'm pretty sure the vomiting was from the yogurt he ate on Sunday. June 15 can't get here quick enough!
TTCers:
Cycle/Month: 8?
CD/DPO? CD16
W2O or 2WW? I assume 2WW.
Testing plans? Only if I'm late?
I don't know if anyone remembers my DH's infertility issues (low count/motility, low T) but he had surgery 17 months ago on his varicoceles (basically varicose veins in the scrotum) and the surgery WORKED!! My Dh went from 3 million total, motile sperm to 70 million!! I'm so proud of him for going through with it! Now if only we could just get pregnant again!
I'm seeing the RE and she had agreed to monitoring and timed intercouse while I'm still breastfeeding. I got my period back in September and it is regular, so I have a hard time believing that is why we aren't pregnant yet. If we find out that I'm not ovulating, I will consider weaning. Monitoring starts next cycle since I'm in the middle of my cycle now.
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 5.5 months
How do you feel? Life is looking up
Any Milestones this week? He is sooo close to sitting up unassisted. He'll do it now until he realizes you aren't holding him.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? He's sleeping in his pnp for the first stretch of the night. He only sleeps for 4 hours in that thing. If I put him in the rnp or in bed with us he sleeps for 6-8. So it's a small victory. Hopefully he'll sleep in it for longer periods as he gets used to it.
He's suddenly a pacifier baby again. He stopped taking them at 2 months completely. He had a low grade fever so I used my pacifier thermometer, he loved it. The pacifier has been a huge help in getting him to sleep in a crib for naps and in the pnp in our room at night. I'm so happy he started taking it again.
@mrshall1027 EP moms at my heroes! That's a ton of work and dishes! My best advice is just to lanolin up. Even if you're power pumping just lube those nips up constantly. Lol. One of mine had a huge sore on it and it took about 72 hours of non stop lanolin to clear it up. Good luck, but I promise there is a light at the end of the lanolin tunnel!
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 7 1/2 months
How do you feel? Good. Wren has only gotten up once in the middle of the night the last 2 nights. I'm hoping this is her new sleep pattern. Way, way better than 3x's a night!
Any Milestones this week? She's very close to crawling, but she gets pissed that she can't do it and tends to give up quickly. She's starting to stand up for a few seconds without holding onto anything. She's also trying to pull herself up on things, but she forgets to hold on & plops back onto her bottom.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? My current favorite pic of Wren & H!
How old is LO? 5 months
How are you feeling? Like my supply is better than last week. Ugh headaches
Any milestones this week? He loves sweet potatoes. He is trying to sit unassisted. He loves to play with his feet.
Rants/thoughts/pics? I had a migraine that started yesterday and lasted through today. I should have left work early to get meds and sleep it off but I didn't. I did take meds when I got home and it helped.
5 month old baby pic.
How old is LO? 15 months
How are you feeling? Fine
Any milestones this week? He took some steps on Mother's Day and has taken a few more here and there, but still not walking. I thought he would by now!
Rants/thoughts/pics? Pics, of course. He's such a good boy.
@goatlady12 EP is definitely work! I just bought more pumping parts for convenience. My hands are so dry from the constant washing!
Cycle/Month: 5AL/5AL
CD/DPO: CD34/10DPO
W2O or 2WW? 2WW
Testing plans: if AF doesnt show up by Saturday
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: I went to my OB yesterday, i have been having this feeling that something is wrong, every since the m/c, and i dont know if its my head or not, he was very reassuring again that I didnt cause the m/c, i can get pregnant and I need to relax and with a 15% chance to stop worrying! He did say that if i wasnt pregnant by November at my annual we could talk. I think I am stuck in my head, the m/c and I just needed him to basically tell me I am crazy and to relax (not exactly in those words!) I also wanted to check if we should re-evaluate my Metformin dosage and some pains I have been having prior to menstruation that I have never had before.
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 22 months 3 weeks
How do you feel? good....sticking to my 21 day fix workouts and eating plan
Any Milestones this week?nothing to report, teeth are still coming in
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? She has had a cold for the past week, i took her to the DR and her strep test came back negative, idk if its from allergies but she has been barely taking the bottle, which is fine with me as I want to ween her before we go to Mexico. Of course bc she is miserable (teething/stuff nose/cough) she keeps waking up, H is useless and just sleeps through everything, i swear i just want to smother him with a pillow sometimes!
How many weeks: 30 weeks 4 day
How are you feeling? I'm feeling kind of confused and a little worried this week. Baby girl is slowly working her way further into my pelvis. It feels like she is playing pin ball between my pelvic bones! I've also had braxton hicks contractions that are way too close together, ended up being monitored wed in hospital but they slowed and I was released but told to take the week off work and do as little as possible. I had 24 contractions yesterday and 10 so far today and it's only 1032 am. I wasn't worried before but this is getting a bit concerning now.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? 30 week belly pic

Any Milestones this week? earlier this month the kids had their birthdays! Cannot believe how big they are getting. Their party was little monster themed (fitting for them lol
