Age of LO(s): 3

CD/DPO: 13
R/R/CS: I love that we're finally really TFAS. It's taken awhile to get dh on board, but luckily, he made it. I'm not a fan of the age gap but it is what it is.
GTKY: Any more fun family summer activities planned for August? I wish. I was supposed to be sitting on the beach in Florida next week but there's been a change of plans. Long story. So instead I invited MIL to visit. Dh won't be in town the whole time she's here, so that'll be interesting. Then he's on a job, out of town, for weeks. Hopefullyhe'll make it home a few times during the job. I can't wait for fall! It's too hot here!
So I don't usually go here. I'm active on the BF board, and currently working on some fitness goals before we actively start trying. I didn't want to intro on the board just yet, so if it's okay with you guys I'll hang out here
Age of LO(s): 18 months
Cycle/Month: I've only had a handful of periods since I'm nursing still. My cycles are fairly regular now and we are NTNP at the moment.
CD/DPO: no clue.
R/R/CS: I am currently on track to lose about 30 lbs before I get KU again. I've lost almost ten already, so I feel good about it. I'm pissed at myself for letting it get this bad. But I'm making better choices and killing it at the gym. I am still nursing DS, and trying to figure out how I feel about tandem nursing a toddler and an infant. I'm secretly hoping he self weans before I get pregnant again but I highly doubt it. This kid loves mommy's milk. Any other mommas TFAS and nursing?
GTKY: Any more fun family summer activities planned for August? Kind of! I SAH during the summer (teacher) so we do a ton of stuff with my friend who has a similar aged DD. we have a local zoo, the beach, county parks and other spots we go to on a daily basis. DH wants to take DS to this Star Wars Day at the Please Touch Museum in August, so that will be fun!

Welcome! I think there are a few BF'ing mamas that check in on the waiting to do something posts. I can't imagine what an adventure tandem nursing would be...although I have heard many times a toddler will self wean in pregnancy because of the changes that occur to your milk. Good luck!
cheezee - I'm obviously lurking. I agree your SIL is a jerk. I want to give you a good example of how wrong she is. My sister (pepperpotts) and I are 6 years apart, and very close. I mean, we even hang out together here on GKU. In stark contrast, our brothers are only 15 months apart and can't stand each other. They only talk when required. So don't listen to her, you have nothing to worry about.

I recently stopped pumping during the day. So now DS has formula at daycare and when I'm home I've continued to BF. Originally I planned to only nurse until 6 months & he's already 8. My son also loves/prefers the mommy milk as well as using me for comfort (no paci). I feel bad cutting him off but can't inagine BF'ing while pregnant. It's not impossible by any means but the eating and thirst would drive me crazy. I'd also like a few months were my boobs are mine again and get to wear regular perky bras. All this to say I've never considered BF'ing in tandem. GL to you.
I hope it's okay if I join this...I know it's a bit late. I had posted a few times when we first started TFAS in November...I got pregnant in January. Unfortunately I lost my baby girl at 17 weeks ... we still aren't sure what happened because all testing came back normal.
Age of LO(s): 19 months
Cycle/Month: 3 / 3 after my loss in May
CD/DPO: 9
R/R/CS: I'm really feeling so sad about being back to temping and tracking and charting. But I guess that's just what we have to do.
GTKY: Any more fun family summer activities planned for August? We have been out and about for most of the summer so far...I'm looking forward to being home for August.
R/R/CS: I worry about the spacing between my kids all the time. But it's totally different when you wanted to wait and have a large spacing and you wanted a smaller spacing and just haven't gotten pregnant . Still cheezee your SIL is not nice.
GTKY: Any more fun family summer activities planned for August? Or just counting down the days until school starts? My parents are visiting so we're going to Disneyland and the aquarium this week. After that I just want to rest. School starting means I go back to work!
Haaaiii melody330!! Nice to see you over here. When I was weaning E, I also hung out on the Waiting to do Something (WTDS) thread. Maybe we'll start having this thread more often, but the WTDS is weekly.
