  • Mommies:

    How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 6.5 months

    How do you feel? Fine

    Any Milestones this week? He does a lot of stuff now I don't really know what's new. He's doing really well transitioning from sitting up to getting on his tummy. He still shows no desire to crawl, which in totally ok with! Not ready.

    Rants/Thoughts/Pictures? I have an interview for a serving part time job tomorrow. I so don't want to do daycare for my sister and that! Gotta do what you gotta do.
    We got professional pictures taken with a Groupon mil bought us, I was not happy. They were super rushed, I was told he'd get one outfit change and he didn't. Also I only had like 12 pictures to choose from. I was annoyed, going to a really awesome place for his one year pictures!
    Also how are all of our littles getting so big?! @mpjf1001 how is she almost 2?!

  • I forgot to ask about this in my first post - 

    I'm constantly hungry!  I remember a few of you saying that you were hungrier while breastfeeding than when you were pregnant.  How do you get around not everything in sight!?!?

  • Mommies:
    @mrshall1027 I ate a lot of snacks.  It was hard to stay healthy, but I tried.  Cheese sticks did the job, although sometimes I'd eat like 3.  Have a couple extra servings of fruits and veggies. 

    How old are your LOs (Little Ones)?
      10 months

    How do you feel?  Tired.  I went to a New Kids on the Block concert last night.  I LOVE them.  I started watching the clock at 9:45 because I couldn't wait to go to bed.  By the time I got home and settled, it was 12:30.  I'm not sure how I got up for work.

    Any Milestones this week?  Walking when holding her hands.  H got her to take a step or 2, but hasn't been able to do it since. 

    Rants/Thoughts/Pictures?  Saturday morning I was up at 4:40, wide awake for no reason.  I stayed in bed until 6, then went downstairs.  I couldn't clean or anything because the main thing that needed to be done was vacuum and that would have woken everyone up.  O slept until 8.  8!!!!!  Most Saturdays she's up at 6:45-7.  I can't believe I missed that valuable sleep :/

  • TTC

    Cycle /month: ??/16

    CD/DPO: I have no idea what cycle day...see below

    Testing : undecided. D wants me to wait until next month

    Rants: I thought cd 1 was last Tuesday but I only bled for less than 24 hours. Then I got really sick, now I'm better and am spotting again today. I also have wicked lower back pain and stomach cramps! I don't know if I got my period or not. And if I did, will my single day of bleeding mean I likely won't ovulate this cycle?

  • TTCers: 

    Cycle/Month: 2/1 

    CD/DPO: CD 11 

    W2O or 2WW? W2O

    Testing plans: Probably won't test till next month. It's weird having all this stuff fall towards the middle of the month.

    Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: So if I'm interpreting all these dates/etc. correctly, I'm potentially ovulating sometime between this Thursday and next Monday. Now to try to time both H and myself actually being in the mood during one of those days. This morning was a fluke.

    How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 9 months next Tuesday

    How do you feel? Pretty good. Wren developed a full-body rash today. :( Her doctor thinks that it was probably caused by a virus since she isn't displaying any other symptoms. So, we just have to monitor it until Friday afternoon & see if it starts getting better. Her doctor wants us to let him know how it is on Friday & I guess we'll go from there, depending on what it does. She's not letting it get her down, though.

    Any Milestones this week? She is standing herself up for longer periods of time. She's "talking" more, too.

    Rants/Thoughts/Pictures? Our little daredevil

  • @mrshall1027 - I didn't want to mess with my supply so I just ate when I was hungry and tried to be healthy, but man I had a sweet tooth.  Now E is eating solids like a champ and slowed down on the nursing I've started to really watch what I eat and exercising.  It's actually not hard because my appetite went down too since I'm not producing as much milk.

    Sweets are my weakness!!  I try to get away with just having a small bowl of cocoa puffs, but sometimes it's just not enough.  I was proud of myself yesterday though - we went to dinner for my moms birthday and I did not order dessert! lol  That's a huge accomplishment for me.

    I guess I'm just not as motivated to eat healthy like I was before I got pregnant because I'm still loosing weight with eating bad and not working out.  But, I'm starting to reach my breaking point because it's getting frustrating picking out clothes.  My maternity clothes are too big and my regular clothes are too tight.  I don't want to go buy new clothes, so I just need to buckle down and loose the weight quicker.

    @mrshall1027 be kind to your body, you just had a baby and you are trying to sustain her life with milk now. 

    It took you 9 months to gain the weight, it may take some time to lose it. 

    This. I had to buy a few new pants, etc but I tried not to let it get me down.  I'm at pre-pregnancy weight, but everything shifted.  I tried to focus on working out (moving more), so when I could start cutting back on food those habits were already set.  Now I can focus on both and I'm seeing results.

  • I get what y'all are saying and I guess I didn't explain myself correctly.  I'm not necessarily concerned about my weight/appearance.  I'm actually less obsessed with all of that now than I was before getting pregnant and I think I look pretty good for just having a baby 8 weeks ago. :)  My main concern right now is to eat healthy because I do want to provide good nutrition through my breastmilk.  And, I guess I'm reluctant to buy clothes because if I'm loosing weight with eating poorly, I know I can see better results with eating healthy.  I am by no means going to starve myself or do anything to hurt my body.  I also need to get back to eating healthier because of the insulin and PCOS issues I have.  And I felt great when I was working out, so definitely need to add that back into the mix.  I know it will give me more energy and reduce stress, which are much needed benefits at the moment!
