Rant/Rave?
GTKY: what’s your favorite family tradition from your own childhood? we didn’t have a lot of them but we would go to my grandmas house every Sunday and I loved it!
Any thoughts about this cycle? We did everything we should but with my short luteal phase I’m cautiously optimistic.
Any questions? I don’t think so.
Rant/Rave? I mentioned in a daily, maybe yesterday, that we’ll be camping for like 10 days in our camper and I’m in charge of packing everything and cleaning before we leave. It would be so nice if my tiny humans didn’t follow behind me pulling stuff out after I put it away. Lol. This seems like a lost cause.
GTKY: what’s your favorite family tradition from your own childhood? Christmas Eve is a big one and it’s been falling apart the last few years. We are a polish family and celebrate Wigilia which is a meatless Christmas Eve. My grandma makes pierogies from scratch, she was born across the pond, fish and mushroom soup. It was always celebrated with my dads family whom I’m much closer to so it’s always been a good time.
Also camping and the 4th of July were big but lately the 4th has been a sh*t show. Hoping and praying this year is uneventful.
@daisy0322 I feel ya on the "I just want to get this cycle over with".
@paytonpedro can you pack during naptime? Do they still nap?
Month/Cycle? Benched cycle #1 (of 2)
WAYDTGKU: benched
WTO/TWW? WTO
Ages of other child(ren)? 2.5
Any thoughts about this cycle? Nope
Any questions? Nope
Rant/Rave? I'm mentally fried from DD's dr appointment this morning and it's not even noon. Also, DD is constipated (recently started PT) and I think she's holding her poop. She only poops when outside at daycare, and she knows not to go in her pants, but maybe is scared to go in the toliet?
Anddddd we just peed on the floor.
GTKY: what’s your favorite family tradition from your own childhood? Anything Christmas related! Or summer dive trips. 🤿
@paytonpedro no problem ... it’s catholic medicine but the results are actually really astounding. There’s some negative articles out there about it but I’ve talked to a bunch of women who’ve go tried and they all have only good things to say
@pajamstagrams ugh potty training is the absolute worst. My 3 year old just went over a week no accidents then had two yesterday and one today. Overall he does great but when I talked to other moms they honestly made it sound like oh 3 days and it’s basically over maybe a few accidents after that but that’s not been my experience.
@pajamstagrams lol nap time. 😅 my 5 year old naps once a month or in the car sometimes. My almost 3 year old doesn’t want to nap and usually destroys his bedroom for an hour. He did nap today though. That is the only time I can get anything done for sure!
Potty training is so hard because each child is so different and what works for one doesn’t work for the other. Surely you’ve tried rewards for going on the potty? Even just sitting on the potty. Juice boxes are literally what got my second going on the potty. Lol. Popsicles for my first.
@paytonpedro today's accident was probably my fault, I should have kept her in a diaper. She was actually sedated for this morning's appointment, so I can hardly fault her for not having full control over her body right now😕 normally she is pretty good about requesting to potty and holding it!
afternoon update: well she's not constipated anymore, big poo #2 in the last 24 hours was definitely a blowout, and all her sheets and clothes are in the wash. what a day 😂😣

a lot of Catholics use it because we typically dont do IVF
