How are we halfway through this month... it's almost summer!!!

[sgio7485]

ourcrazynavylife how is the baby?!

I'm peeing on sticks because my mind is playing tricks on me. My low back kills like it did in my last pregnancy but I'm days away from AF. Thought I saw a squinter but looking again, I think not. I'm ok with it being negative -trying "full force" next month haha, but I wish I knew for sure! I peed on one before drinking heavily this weekend so I think that is making me overly anxious.

Hope everyone is doing well! The weather sucks here.

sgio7485 ttc and be a mind f**k for sure. With DS 1 it seemed like I was constantly peeing on sticks because every symptom I had I convinced myself it was because I was ku'd. Keeping things crossed for you!

It is! The past couple months I hadn't been like that this time (I was psycho crazy when TTC Leo- peed on everything in sight and temped and tracked and ate seeds and smoothies). I'll be more like that in the coming cycles I'm sure. It's the back pain making me question myself and the fact that I was drinking a lot on fri making me feel anxious

My day: dog ate raisin. Raisins kill dogs. Had to make dog vomit. Dog vomits 8 bajillion times all over the house.

LO wakes up last night every hour, coughing and full of snot with a fever I can't break.

Bedtime: My LO just shit on my phone screen. She was battling a tummy bug and missed the toilet.

Got my period DURING graduation.

Husband gone for two months.

Can life get any more glamorous?

[ourcrazynavylife]

kcrus I hope somewhere in there you got some wine or hard booze. Life needs to cut you some friggin slack.

[ourcrazynavylife]

Hi sgio7485 !
GL with TTC, I can't help myself I pee on all the things too. Haha. I'm also team "drink till it's pink" so I wouldn't worry too much.

Things are going okay here. C is kinda a clingy/gassy baby. He's been better the past 24 hours after giving him gas drops more frequently so I have hope that things won't be so sucky forever. He's still a sweet nugget when he's not screaming at me.

kcrus man you deserve wine. Lots of it! Hope this week starts improving for you.

[dashook]

sgio7485, sorry for the uncertainty--keep us posted though! I wouldn't worry either way about the drinking, as it would be soooo early.
kcrus, all the hugs and wine, lady. I hope today is better for you!

Just working away over here. I'm such a broken record. But with trial coming up in about 3 weeks, plus all my other cases shouting at me for attention, I'm drowning. It doesn't help that my nanny is away this week. My parents are here filling in through tomorrow and then MIL will have the kids Thursday, but it's definitely stressful.

[sgio7485]

ourcrazynavylife hooooooly cuteness!!!!!!!!!

[sgio7485]

We hatched chicks this week in my classroom. So adorable! (And smelly, and gross).

[sgio7485]

kcrus I hope you stocked up on wine before hubby left. Holy moly!!!

Popping in to say heyyyyyy J15! We had a good time on the Disney cruise but it was def exhausting. Lemmejussay- I won't be dropping that kind of $$$ on a family vacation again in the near or not so near future. I would have had a MUCH better time at an adults only all inclusive with DH (sorry LO). I'm just not a Disney vacation person either. I love Disney movies, but the level of Disney was overwhelming.
Started my new job yesterday and I've been super busy getting my ass kicked but my new bosses seem great and they only want me working M-F approx 8-5 and to tell them if they're assigning me too much work. I'm salaried, so that's pretty awesome. And it's casual day everyday. I haven't broken business dress code yet but Friday will be a jeans day I think.
Also, someone please buy my house in OK so we can actually look for a house up here and stop hemorrhaging money on rent + mortgage + expenses on 2 houses.

[laceysbryan]

AWs from the trip

[ashlantic]

sgio7485 if it makes you feel any better, I went wine tasting and drank at abachelorette party before I knew I was KU with lo. I wouldn't stress about it. I know that TTC is such a mind fuck, though. Good luck!
kcrus omg. How are lo and your dog feeling? Hope the rest of your week is going 1,000 times better. I'm sorry life just keeps piling more shit on you.
ourcrazynavylife adorable!
dashook good luck getting through the rest of the week!
laceysbryan crossing all the things that your old house sells quickly! Your new job sounds pretty great! Love the vacation pics. Your little guy looks so big now!

[littlelion]

ashlantic, happy to see your LO is much better! Ugh, puddles are the bane of my existence. 

laceysbryan, glad to hear your new job is so on board with a work life balance! Your cruise looked like fun! 

sgio7485, stalking this thread for your updates! FX! also, we hatched chicks back in 7th grade. I was pretty grossed out on eggs for a while after. And I love eggs.

LEO

ALEX

LEO thinking he's the king of the house

[ourcrazynavylife]

Ya'll my baby is 1 month old already!!

[ashlantic]

littlelion that last pic of Leo cracked me up. Your boys are adorable.
ourcrazynavylife such a little peanut!

Went for a bike ride and to get ice cream with dh and lo tonight. We drove past our new neighborhood and there was a big excavator parked in our lot and a big pile of dirt. Looks like they're getting started on our house!

[ourcrazynavylife]

Side note, DH got hired as a surf instructor at one of the local shops. Woo supplemental income!!
Booo I have to manage Em & Conor by myself tomorrow & Friday while he takes CPR/First Aid course.

Have you guys read thru the State of the Forum thread? If parenting ppl decide to leave TCF, then I think this place is done for. It sounded serious last night.

I spent hours reading that thing yesterday and I'm still only on page like 41.  Like everytime I thought I was even halfway through, it'd jump another 4 pages.  I gave up lol

[dashook]

Guys, my baby girl is 6 months old today How???

I don't read everything. You don't miss much skipping pages.

I read a few pages here and there, but it was impossible to keep up. I hope this place doesn't go under. Our group is tiny now but I enjoy chatting with you ladies.

[ourcrazynavylife]

ashlantic what kind of pool is that?? I think Em would really like a pool...

[littlelion]

Parenting has created accts on community.scarymommy.com/ 

On Saturday they'll have a thread to talk about leaving for sure.  I don't know what this means for us. Can TCF disappear all of a sudden? Guys, if it does look for me on SM! OR should we do a FB secret group? 

I'm panicking over here. I need to get back to work! 

[kcrus]

I'm down for a secret FB group

[ourcrazynavylife]

We were finally able to get in touch with the pediatric dentist. Conor has an appt Tuesday AM for his tongue tie.

[ashlantic]

ourcrazynavylife hope his procedure goes well! Has he had trouble latching/nursing from his tongue tie? This is the pool we have-

Hid the ugly link there. Don't know how to shorten it. Lo loves it and it's held up OK after using it all last summer.
littlelion I'd be down for a fb group.
