Married June 2010.
DD born 1/13 via Csection at 41w5d after 47 hours of labor
Good morning! I'm here early, as Wesley is currently sleeping on my chest. If I try to put him in his newborn sleeper, he screams and/or makes really loud baby dinosaur noises.
He is 11 days old today- where did the time go?! I feel like we were just in the hospital yesterday.
Here's my little man at 1 week old:
And here are my two favorite people ever! (this is from our newborn session):
Lots of love to TTGP and all the grads!

7 weeks today! Still feeling pretty good for the most part. Nausea isn't terrible, worst in the middle of the night, boobs are starting to feel sore, and the cramping hasn't stopped. Sleep is hit or miss. Some nights I am up ten times, some just 2. No bloat yet. I'm wearing my skinny jeans today. After my first blood draw came back my progesterone was low and it was upped from 100mg a day to 400. When I refilled it, it was switched from vaginally to oral and I feel the side effects sometimes. Aaaaannnndddd I had an ultrasound last week (see siggy; sorry mobile bumpers) at 6 weeks 2 days and got to see and hear the heartbeat. HUGE relief. I was actually measuring a day ahead, but I'm sticking with the date I had. I meet with the np this week and my ob next week. I can't believe I've made it this far. I wasn't sure if/when I'd get here after my second loss in a row last fall.
sorry for the wall of text. I'm on the iPad.

Jumpy - he is so flipping adorable!!
AFM - I'll be 11 weeks tomorrow - not a lot to report. My symptoms have still been fairly mild although RLP kicked in the past week and I've been a bit more tired. Occasional mild nausea. Really just waiting for my next appointment on 2/21 - it will be my NT scan and 12 week check-up!
Wishing the TTGP ladies a plethora of BFPs!!
Bump Burp
Oh yay!!! I'm here early for a change!
Jump Around: What a cutie you have there! Love
Get in all the snuggle time you can Mama...it goes by so fast.
AFM, all is well here. Taylor is growing at the speed of light, and scootin' around the house like he has rockets on his feet. Still army crawling for now, but he is starting to pull up on stuff. Sunday morning we found him standing in his crib...scary!! We have also graduated from the baby tub to the big boy tub since he is standing up in the tub too. But at least that lets him play with all his toys, not just a few. Eats good, screams loud, plays hard and snuggles soft. My baby boy!!!! Love him so much. Here is a picture from Sunday. He was playing under the coffee table...hehehehe. So silly!!
(((hugs))) I miss you Rora! Good luck at your ultrasound on Monday. :-)
TTC since August 2011, Me = 40, DH = 38
Unexplained IF. Tried Clomid for 3 cycles. All BFNs. BFP 1/6/13. Chemical pregnancy.
Moving on to IVF#1. ER 11/26/13, 16 eggs retreived, 12 mature and all fertilized. 2 blasts transferred on 12/1. All other embies arrested so nothing left to freeze. Beta 12/10 = BFN. IVF #2 March 2014. BFP!!! TEAM BLUE!!!
I haven't posted in a while but I'm back at work this week, in front of a computer. I didn't think it would be so tough to leave LO but I am starting to feel like myself again (though it was nice to live in pajamas for 2 months).
Desmond is 9 weeks old today. He is rolling from front to back, smiling lots, and talking up a storm. He still doesn't sleep much at night but I try not to complain too much.
Here's my smiling and sleeping boy. Can't wait to see all the other udpates!
Hi Ladies! I am 22 weeks as of this past Sunday. I have a 4 week appointment today so we will see if anything has changed. I went out and bought maternity clothes and I definitely feel much better when I go out.
Ahh....I feel like I haven't been on the check in in a long time....but please forgive my AW ways but that's because Mackenzie Rae was born February 1st 5 weeks early!!! I went in the week before due to my high blood pressure and tons of protein in my urine which turned into preeclampsia. My Dr decided 1 week later to induce me and out she came! We were very lucky and she didn't need any NICU time and was breathing fine on her own. Its been a struggle with her and eating for the first week....she lost a bit of weight and the doctors didn't like that and had to closely monitor her....but now she's up to her birth weight again! And once again, my AW ways with pics of her:
Still lots of love to all you wonderful ladies out there in TTGP!!!!!

YAY birthday twins! Your little girl is just precious! SO adorable! Nice work, mama!
Good luck on Monday! I hope everything goes smoothly. Your DS is ADORABLE as usual.
My girl will be 1 in 21 days. I can't believe it. Time really does go by so so so fast. I've been losing my mind trying to plan her party.
She's also starting to walk which is awesome and terrifying.
Good luck to TTGP! Most of you probably don't know who I am, but I'm always rooting for you anyway.
Hi ladies! I am 35w4d today. Whoa! I cannot remember if I checked in last week (I don't think I did), so here is a picture of James at his growth scan. Estimated weight of 6 pounds, and everything looked great. In the first pic, he was just chillin'. In the second, he was practicing sucking. About two seconds after this picture, that little arm reached out and punched us.
Here I am today, 35w4d.
Physically I've been doing so-so. I have a lot of pelvic pain. I also have had my BP creeping up a smidge. Got sent home from work yesterday since BP was somewhat elevated. I didn't feel well in general. Once I rested, it came down nicely and is 114/76 this morning, so was able to go to work.
In other news, we purchased a new Mommy Mobile. Got a Jeep Grand Cherokee. I love it!!! Best of luck to everyone, adn I pray that your BFP's come soon.

He is such a happy, smiley baby...and cooing ALL the time!

We aren't TTC again yet...but we aren't going to wait too long to try again because of my IF struggles.
Rooting for all of you! Much love!
Chemical Pregnancy
Afm: I'm 12w2d today. Squirt is officially the size of a plum now. Woot. My NT scan, bloodwork, and ob appt is tomorrow. I'm so nervous. I'm trying to keep my mind occupied though.
As soon as we know that squirt is ok , we will be going public. Ahhhh. And the only other thing of note is that the nausea is in full force and I'm pretty sure that squirt doesn't want me eating anything. Every time I do, it seems I get sick. I think I will be asking about zofran ? tomorrow. Something has got to give little bean! I need to eat! Lol
O was born Aug 13!

I'm going to do the important stuff first and AW the pic of my kid, then go back and read and comment
Connor turns 6 months tomorrow. Holy hell. He's doing great. He's obviously big and healthy (points below). He does have a slight flat spot on the back of his head so he is getting a helmet on Monday. They said he will likely wear it for 4-6 months and he wears it 23 hours a day. It will suck, but oh well.
Here he is a few weeks ago ready to go to a baby shower:
Nothing really to report here. MS decided to start this morning though. Other than that just bloated and tired. I go in between food cravings and food aversions.
Went to the Dr last week at 6 weeks for my blood pressure. She put me on meds and said I'm high risk. Ran some tests and I go back next Friday for my U/s!
can't wait to see the baby...I need to come up with a nickname for it.
I come over here all the time and lurk...I miss the board a lot. I hope you all graduate soon!
Okay sorry if I miss some people!
Crammypants - I love the glider! It would look amazing in Connor's nursery...if that ever gets finished.
I cannot wait for your little man to GET HERE ALREADY!
HEA - Jonah is so beautiful!
MrsKitton - CONGRATS!! She is gorgeous! And that's amazing that she had no NICU stay. That makes me teary I'm so happy for you. GL with eating. That was what kept Connor in the NICU, but they catch on quickly!
BabyBear - Taylor is adorable! I can't believe he's on the move so much already!
MissGOP - OMG Des is soo precious. I want to steal him. And rolling?!!!?! My kid is 6m and still not doing that
Salt - Betty seriously makes my uterus hurt. You and CruelSound need to stop posting pics or I'm going to get KU'd again.
Kel - you look amazing! James is a big boy already! I can't wait to meet him!
