Eliza Mae - September 16th, 2014
Re: TTC Tuesday
Cycle/Month: ??/16
CD/DPO: no idea...haven't had any more spotting/bleeding since last week.
W2O or 2WW? I don't know.
Testing plans: nothing yet
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: This is the first cycle I've been really confused about what is going on. I thought CD 1 was a few weeks ago, but I only bled for less than a day. Then I had some more spotting last week, but it was not even enough to fill a pad. I have no idea what's going on, and it's annoying.
How many weeks: ~8 weeks (8w1d vs 7w5d). Still waiting to see if they will adjust my due date.
How are you feeling? A little heartburn. Nausea if I get extremely hungry. I swear I peed 15x in 12 hours at work Sunday. Ridiculous...also, my milk supply has dropped and nursing hurts like hell. Caleb doesn't seem to mind so far. Sill breastfeeding 2-3 times a day.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? No bump. I was in maternity pants at 12/13 weeks last time but I'm heavier now so I'm wondering if I can go longer.
Thinking about telling family in about 2.5-3 more weeks. We have our second ultrasound 7/7 and third 7/16.
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 16.5 months
How do you feel? See above.
Any Milestones this week? Walking more and more every day.
Rants/Thoughts/Pictures? I hate molars. Last week they were causing fevers and this weeks it has been 2:30-3:30am wake-ups...on a kid who has sttn basically since birth. Getting up in the motn with a teething toddler is doing nothing for my first trimester exhaustion. Thank God he nurses and goes back down without a problem.
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 10 months
How do you feel? Great! I am home with O for the next 2 months!!!
Any Milestones this week? She got another tooth, she's up to 7. The 8th looks like it will break through any day now. She is very close to walking. I got her to take about 4 steps more than once today without being held. We have not put gates up on our stairs. We need them like yesterday. She has finally doubled her birth weight! We went to the doctor today for a weight check and she was a little over double. It's taken my peanut long enough!
Rants/Thoughts/Pictures? How does she go from being a tiny baby to doing so much in what seems like a blink of an eye? Where does time go?
Cycle/Month: 2/1
CD/DPO: CD 19
W2O or 2WW? 2WW
Testing plans: Waiting till either 7/11 or 7/12...depending how antsy I get.
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: So, based on most of the "calculators" I've tried using, today should be my last day I could be ovulating. I basically decided that I may start temping if things fall through this next cycle. I'd like to be a little bit more certain with days rather than just going at it and hoping for the best. I can also safely say I regret looking up health symptoms of ovulation, PMS and pregnancy. I keep getting sick in the stomach or having back pain and I have to keep reminding myself that it's probably due to some other sort of reason.
I would test again. There are a lot of potential reasons for bleeding in early pregnancy. Have you contacted your OB??
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 9
How are you feeling? okay, nausea comes and goes, i havent been eating dinner, eating that late makes me feel worse
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I have an appt today after work, FX!
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 2 next Wednesday:( time needs to slow down
How do you feel? see above
Any Milestones this week? She is saying "I love you" and more full sentences; she has a couple more molars coming in which is always fun
Rants/Thoughts/Pictures? n/a
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 9 months
How do you feel? busy. Work is crazy
Any Milestones this week? She's my little daredevil. She's trying to climb on things. and now thinks it's awesome to let go while standing and slam into the floor. She roughhouses with the dog... people are going to think I abuse her with all the scratches and bruises she's got going on right now.
Rants/Thoughts/Pictures?
She never falls asleep on me anymore, so I cherish the first picture. Second picture is my life, every night... :xMommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 9 weeks
How do you feel? Kinda overwhelmed. I'm tired and stressed out. Aria had her 2 month shots on Monday and she hasn't been sleeping as good as she normally does the last two nights, so it's been rough.
Any Milestones this week? Watching her grow is amazing! Her doctor said she was doing things a 4 month old does, like rolling from her back to her side and when doing tummy time, she holds herself up with her forearms.
Rants/Thoughts/Pictures? I'm trying to get back to work, but it's been more difficult than we imagined. My mom was watching her a couple days a week, but it's been really busy at the office so she hasn't been able to. We're looking at enrolling her into daycare 3 days a week and going to interview a center tomorrow morning. I'm really not happy about it, but there is no other option at this point. H and I have been coming into the office this week and bringing her with us. She gets passed around from me, to him, to my mom, and to my dad all day because we're all busy. It's nice to have them see how much time she demands. My dad was making comments that implied he thinks I should be able to get more done. Hopefully he gets it now.
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 9 months (yesterday)
How do you feel? Tired. Wren is teething & possibly has an ear infection or something. She's not sleeping well & neither are we. We're going to see her Dr tomorrow for her 9-month check up, so we'll see what he thinks might be bugging her besides her top tooth coming in.
Any Milestones this week? Getting her top left tooth in slowly. She's also saying "ma" & "ma ma" more
Rants/Thoughts/Pictures? My phone won't let me upload right now
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 13 days away from being 1!!!! How did that happen?!?!
How do you feel? Good. Our weekends this month are ridiculous so H and I are very overwhelmed at the moment.
Any Milestones this week? He started saying baby last week, it's so cute but of course he does not say it on commend so I haven't gotten it on video yet lol. Still super close to walking but hasn't happened yet.
Rants/Thoughts/Pictures? He will be in a contest in September to help raise money for March of Dimes. We did a "warrior/fairy" photo shoot and the picture is so adorable. The other 2 pictures are him being a goof ball lol.
@kittenwine, I've never used them, but I've heard the Wondfos are decent and on Amazon, they're pretty cheap. If you want to temp, which I like much better, a BBT is around $10 and a one time purchase.
