Yeah, well, I don't think clever comes into it really
Just hoping he'll wear himself out now and sleep. Met up with my mother's group this morning and he's been asleep nearly 2 hours now....ah, have probably just jinxed myself.
Sultanas are pretty cool
Wonderful news Marcellus...it's so much fun watching them toddle about and really start to find their independence!
Sage is a good boy!!! Eating sultanas and chilling out with his vaccinations! WOW!
I headed off to my Ob. this week...looking at starting the process for No. 2.
So...it's back to follicle tracking, HSG's, etc. AHHHHH!!!
Brings back all those tough memories...although thankfully, having Felix does take the pressure off a bit! Would so love to have another baby...but will just have to see what happens, hey?
Ob/Gyn. was lovely though... he said "I'm really sorry you have to go through this again...wouldn't it be nice to just fall pregnant without having to do all of this"...
I so appreciated that!
Anyway...Felix is having a marathon sleep after his swimming lesson this morning...I think it's been 3 hours now!!!
Monnie I wish you all the best on your journey of ttc bub #2. How exciting for you but understand where you are coming from re the tough memories. I saw my Ob/Gyn back in March and also discussed bub #2 for us too. I need to get my but into gear and get some bloods done etc to work out where I'm at etc. Might be a little out of whack still as I'm still BF Sage. I have just found out that I can start taking Metformin again as soon as I'm ready as it won't affect Sage. I was worried about it coming through my milk but it won't cause him any harm apparently which is good news. I wasn't prepared to stop BF just so we could try for another bub iykwim.
DH is very worried about ttc again due to my history of M/C and doesn't want us to go through another one as he told me it nearly "kills" him to see me suffer. We went through a "suprise" M/C only in Feb. We weren't trying for a bub but it just happened but sadly it was pretty much over before we knew about it So it is pretty obvious to us that I need to be back on the meds that helps our bubs stick.
Anyway Sorry for the long post. I just want to say that I hope bubba #2 isn't too far away for you guys
mako - sweetie, I'm so sorry about your recent loss. Really sorry for you and DH too. I can understand your hesitation.
Monnie - hope Felix is 100% again. That would have scared the life out of me. Best of luck with TTC - are you going straight onto clomid?
Marcellus - i'd love to see little Mr A! He is so close in age to DS and he has started 'walking' too. Not all the time. But more and more. It's so funny and he loves it. He can get his balance now midway through so he doesn't always fall into a heap anymore. He has dropped a day sleep and is sleeping for about 10/11 hours at night now. I seem to get less and less done!
Nic - how is DD? I hope that keeping a diary has shed some light on things. I can't believe she is 9 y/o already! A little lady already.
Sazz - Hi!
Ok, so we are TTC number 2 as well. Natural thaw cycle number 1 is underway. I'll let you all know, but we are very cautious with our feelings this time.
to you all, hope those little bubs are settling in and things are getting easier.
Awww Mako, so sorry for your loss. Wishing you the best - and it's great news that you can get back on the Metformin without weaning.
Best of luck to Monnie & Lenny - fingers, toes etc all crossed for you. I soooo hope you only have to do one cycle.
And do we have to do ALL those ******** tests again?
I'm scared even of natural ttc to be honest, just remembering all the stressing and disappointments. So yeah, we all understand (unfortunately).
Lenny - I'd love to meet little L too! What a shame we're on opposite sides of the country. A is LOVINg walking. he gets giddy and carried away sometimes and falls in a heap. But then he gets right back up again - I love him for it. Nothing seems to get him down.
Wow, it seems like we are all thinking of #2 (or 3) now. I'm not sure what we are doing now that we only have one frosty left. Probably going back soon though.
Best of luck to you Lenny and Monnie. I really hope you only have to do one horrible cycle each!!! Wouldnt that be amazing!!!
Oh Mako I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. You must have found it really hard when I was going on and on about my cycle!!! I feel just awful now.
Good work on the walking Aric!!! Celeste started last sunday so it must have been a good week for learning to walk. She just got up and did it too. I knew it was coming cause I saw her standing up without using furniture a week before. She was so pleased with herself and was practicing up and down over and over for at least an hour that first day! Now she is more than half-time walking. I think she will be pretty much full time walking within 2 weeks of starting!
Good boy Sage with the vaccinations!!! I'm thinking of getting Celeste and myself done too. Not fun but for a good cause. Must remember to take sultanas!!!
Hello everyone else!!! Funny how this thread has a big burst of activity and then we all go silent for days/weeks.
You just have to wonder why it has to be so hard for some...
At least we all know we fought very hard to have our little ones...
I must admit, I'm really not looking forward the gamut of tests to come...it was hard the first time, but now trying to fit them in with a toddler seems a very tricky task indeed...and I sort of feel "I've done this already...surely I don't need to do it again!!! It's so invasive and rigid and 'unsponanteous'...
Oh well...I guess that's just the deal, hey? I still can't believe I'm one of the lucky ones to end up with a beautiful little boy...so I really can't complain!
Go Lenny Go!!! Hope it works out just wonderfully for you!
And well done Celeste...you go girl!
If anything, the constant chasing after a toddler is great exercise! And they just look so cute toddling!!! I love it (except the intense negotiations that happen now to try to get Felix into a pram, trolley, highchair, carseat!!!
Anyway...hope everyone else is doing well!
My DH is just back from an overseas work trip...so hoping things feel a little more normal in the next few days...my hat goes off to any single Mums out there...they are truly amazing!!!
