Hey ladies! The check-in has been pretty slow as we all adjust to our life change but hopefully things will pick up eventually. I'm hoping that maybe by starting this on Friday, we might see more people at the check-in. We miss our ladies. 

 

I've been busy with family this weekend so wasn't able to get around to posting the check-in.  I hope everyone has a great weekend!

How old is LO?

LOs name?

How are you feeling physically/emotionally?

Challenges/Successes?

Cute/Funny stories?

QOTW - Winter temps have definitely hit for many of us.  What is your favorite way to snuggle up and keep warm during the winter season?

    How old is LO? 5 months

    LOs name? Sawyer

    How are you feeling physically/emotionally? Things are ok... I'll just leave at that.  DH and I are working hard to make it work.  

    Challenges/Successes? LO loved sweet potatoes and we're going to try bananas this weekend! 

    Cute/Funny stories? LO already has an attitude. I can't help but laugh at it now, but I can only imagine it in a few years! 

    QOTW - STARBUCKS and a good book

    @skamber- I've been thinking about my miscarriage a lot lately, especially since the two year anniversary is next month.  It scares me a lot to have another kid right now.  DH and I both have a deep feeling that the LO we lost was a boy, and part of me feels like if we conceive another boy, the same thing will happen.  Completely not rational.  BUT I say all that to say this... my mom gave me some good advice right after my miscarriage as I was telling her all my fears about trying again.  She said that 'one day, your desire to have another kid will overpower your fears... and that's how you know you're ready'.  My mom also had a miscarriage and had my little brother a year after her miscarriage and knew what I was going through.  It made me feel better knowing that one day I would be ready to try again.  My mom also said that when she was ready to try again, it was easier because she knew she already had two healthy children and it was possible to have a full term pregnancy.  She acknowledges the fact that her situation was a little different because it wasn't her first that she lost and I know that it does make a difference emotionally for us.  I thoroughly believe that you will know when you're ready again... it's scary, but look at Eden and know that it's worth it.  I know for myself, that one day I will want a sibling for Sawyer... but emotionally, I'm just not ready (plus my life is crazy right now).  Good luck!!!   

    ETA: Sorry... I just rambled.

    Zachariah is 21 weeks and will be 5 months next week

    This has been a very had week on me, I'm 100% worn down emotionally and physically. DH and I did get a 4 hour date on Saturday without the baby though. We had lunch, went to a wine tasting then bowling. Sadly, the rest of the weekend outside those 4 hours was a disaster.

    Zach had 2 teeth pop out mid-week so he has been hard for me to handle. He is trying to be more independent and is working on crawling, but doesn't want to be alone so I find myself not getting anything done.

    QOTW- Warm blankets, coffee and snuggles.

    @skamber I agree with everything @Brittnic531 said. I look at Zach and I know it is possible to have and love this tiny human and as much as everything involving him and my past loss scares me on a daily basis, we have already talked about when we would like to try for our second. We agreed originally on waiting until he is 2, but recently decided to talk about the subject again when he turns 1. A lot of days I lay in bed and tell myself that "We made it" sometimes that means though a hard day, and other times that means we successfully brought LO into this world and made it to 5 months. I trust that while I don't think I'l ever be 100% ready for another one and the fears that come with it (I wasn't even ready for this one even 50%) that my desire for a child will one day outweigh them and will be of comfort.
