My 2 FFFCs

in Parenting after 35

#1: There are so many pregnant women around me lately, with their 2nd or 3rd child, that it makes me secretly jealous of them. I don't know if it's b/c of their carefree fertility (they're in their 20s) or if it's b/c they have more than 1 child. I guess I'm not OK with one and done since I'm jealous, huh? I mean, I know we can try to have one more but if I was in my 20s, it would be no big deal. And now, there's that whole AMA thing that's always in the back of my mind.

#2: I love Friday evenings when DH works late. I love putting Adrian to sleep early, taking a long shower and then watching a chick flick or getting in bed with a good book. Today DH came home earlier than usual and I was disappointed! Especially b/c I had just put A to bed and DH went and picked him up and ended up keeping him awake for another 1/2 hr. I got kind of pissed. I understand he wants to bond with A but they were watching cartoons, which is not really quality time in my book. Plus, DH is off tomorrow, so he can bond with A then. I just really hate it when A's routine gets screwed up b/c then he doesn't sleep as well. And he had a really long week b/c he started the MDO 3 days a week now. I try to be more carefree but honestly, at the end of a long day, I just want to put A in bed and relax. I told DH that as "punishment", he gets to wake up at 6 or 7am tomorrow to get A, lol.

Me: 44 DH: 42. DS born healthy at 40 weeks 8/24/09. TTC since then with no luck or ART. Surprise BFP 8/6/14... MMC @ 8 weeks 4 days... Miss you everyday sweet baby angel.

    #1: I think it just means that you are ready for #2. You had your AMA with Adrian anyway, so what's the difference? CVS test rocks! (I had E. at almost 41, and H was almost 52. We wouldn't have had the guts to do it if there was no genetic testing available.)

    #2: Nothing is  wrong with getting kind of pissed at H at this point. After you have your #2, you will not be able to wait for H to come home on a Fri night!

    1 - It still might be easy and problem-free even though you're AMA, but yeah, I know what you mean.  :)

    2 - I totally get that.  Alone time is like diamond-encrusted platinum lately.  Sometimes you just want to say "I love you, but seriously, get the heck out of my house for a couple of hours and take the baby with you."
