FFFC

Let's hear what everyone has to say...

Re: FFFC

  • So... our cousin and his fiancee were over the other night and talked and she talked about not wanting to have kids (saying there will be "none of that"). I respect their decision, but feel bad for my Aunt who is looking forward to watching their "kids" one day. Their conversation got DH and I to talking after they left and we were very open with each other. He told me he really wanted Abby to have a sibling and for her to have a close relationship with them like he does his brother. He also doesn't want her to be alone if something happens to us and says she will make a great big sister. I agree with everything he said, but am afraid of the adjustment to having 2 kids in addition to the medical stuff. I researched postpartum hemorrhaging causes yesterday and hypothyroidism and pregnancy and like what I saw as far as chances of my bleeding recurring and being pregnant with hypothyroidism. 

    My confession: After nearly 2 years of saying I was One and Done I am not anymore. I told DH I agreed with him and we should try for another. My TSH levels are off so they need to normalize for awhile before we start TFAS. I am thinking after Abby turns 2 either in the summer or fall. I am going to ask the doctor about it next time I go in to have my levels checked.

  • That's exciting about TFAS.  I completely understand your fear about adjusting to 2.  I have those same fears and am not even pregnant with a second yet.  It's great that you are doing your research for your medical concerns.  And you sound very prepared going to talk with your doctor.

  • That's awesome!! As an OC, I really do miss that connection. I knew that it wasn't in the cards though, my parents tried for a second but it didn't happen. I really wish at this point that I wasn't the only one.

  • FFFC - I'm so tired of play doh.  It's Lily's favorite thing to do these last few weeks.  For a long time it was painting.  That I didn't mind.  Not sure why play doh drives me crazy.  I'm ready for this phase to be over with too.

    Second confession - I let my kid eat 4 pieces of bacon for breakfast this morning.  It was low sodium but I still felt some mom guilt.  She's been eating like a bird lately so whatever she actually does eat, I let her eat (within reason, obv I won't let her eat a bunch of candy).  Yesterday she had maybe a tiny handful of dry cereal for breakfast, one bite of chicken for lunch with her milk, a pouch and some chips for a snack mid afternoon and maybe 4 bites of a sandwhich last night for dinner. She kept asking for candy later last night and I got her to eat half a banana instead.  I know she'll eat when she's hungry.  But I made bacon this morning knowing she likes it and ended up giving her mine because she kept asking for more.

  • I have no sex drive since having baby. I feel bad for D.
  • My FFFC is that I feel on the verge of a breakdown 99% of the time.  On the outside, I look like I have it together.  Reality-I am about ready to rage quit almost everyday.

  • YES Mark!!!  I would love the company of quitting.
  • I wanna quit too, but I wont.
  • I have no sex drive since having baby. I feel bad for D.

    This was me for at least the whole first year after having Lily.  And the 2nd year hasn't been too much better.  Better yes, but not like pre-Lily.

  • Megan- Sounds like you are prepared and that's exciting about TFAS. = )

    Jen- feel better!

    Mine: I am so angry with our seller. We couldn't close this week because the furnace wasn't replaced until after our appraisal. That's not what I was told. I was told by the seller himself that it was done three days before our appraisal. Now the appraiser has to come back out the house, check the furnace and blah blah blah. I'm hoping another week but I'm telling myself two weeks. I'm going to need this vacation to Disney in two weeks.

  • @shellyamf I acutuall read up on a couple things and thing it may have to do with the anti anxiety medication my dr switched me to after having baby so I could breastfeed. Hope D will just hang in there with me.
  • J is on an anti-anxiety/depression med and it killed it for him Aleigha.  Sorry that you are going through that!

    Hugs to everyone!!!!!! Amber - when do you leave for Disney?

    We are going on vacation the week before Memorial Day. I'm excited and also dreading it. Plan is to drive to KS for my brothers graduation. Two days later drive to OK. Stay there for two days. Drive back to KS and rent a uHaul trailer. Take a day to see my family and load the rest of our stuff up that my parents have been storing for us. Mostly garage stuff like P's air compressor, jack stands, tools, ect. And drive home. So it's a week of a lot of driving. L's schedule is going to be so messed up. -- at least that's the plan if we have enough money. I haven't gotten as many shifts as I hoped for and we need to rent the trailer. So it might just be a trip to KS for graduation and to pick up our stuff.

    The confession part is that I don't want to spend a week on the road. I'd rather save up and fly to Oklahoma for the holidays.

  • I am done about May 30th.  It has been a terrible weekend with Friday being my breaking point. :(  I am hoping to regain some happiness when I get out of this nightmare. 
  • I hope so for you Jen. I miss my happy friend.
