Omfg you guys. Somebody from may 15 is KO again. I was lurking to see what kinds of things A could be starting to do and I saw that. I cannot imagine being pregnant right now.

Went out to dinner w some of Wife's friends from high school last night and I wore real prepregnancy jeans! I promptly changes when I got home, but they fit!
In other news, my poor Jake has baby acne alll over his face. He looks like a teenager!
In other other news, it's our last night in Illinois and my in laws neighborhood is having a block party so tons of people are coming over for that. It will be nice to see everyone one last time before we start our trek back to Florida Saturday morning.

No. Just No.
My factory is closed. I was hoping to connivence DH for one more but nope nope nope. After these two pregnancies and hospital stays… we're done. I can not go through that again. I talked to my OB about this and his response was that it would be his recommendation that I not have anymore pregnancies as well.
I trust my old OB so much that I am considering making the drive to have him tie my tubes.
I'm curious on what your thoughts are on having more children motownthrowdown. I don't mean to pry but I know how long it took for me to be ok with a 2nd and I didn't have a 28 weeker. Have you talked to your OB about it? Are they concerned that you might have similar issues with future pregnancies?

I am considering chopping my hair off. Ethan is already pulling on it. The issue is that I like being able to pull it back when i'm running or working out.

Before A, we were thinking two. DH became an only child when he was about 10 and didn't want #1 to be lonely. We figured we'd try for one of each and call it good with whatever we got.
Right this second, I'm done. I know the chances of pre-e are lower and later on the subsequent babies, but since this started showing up around week 25 and peaked at week 28 with an emergency c section, does that mean I make it to 28 weeks and deliver at 31? 32?
But I would surrogate for my best friend in a heartbeat. No self respecting doctor would probably let me, but I would do it for her. The risks of pre-e would still be too high.
I haven't really talked about it with my ob. We were focusing on getting me feeling better with meds for my ppd/ppa/nicu - itis
I can't imagine doing this again. 3 months in the nicu, plus all the complications she had with the GBS causing meningitis, sepsis, hydrocephalus, shunt. We are so unbelievably lucky to have come home with her at all.
So short version, right this second I'm one and done. I'm not in the best place mentally to answer this, but that's what I feel now. DH wants more, but he's afraid of doing this again and afraid of what it would do to me, physically.
****EDIT: my ob did say that, because of how they had to cut me, I can't go full term if there is a next time. I'm done at 36 because of high risks for uterine rupture.
Speaking if hair, is 35 too old to try for purple streaks in the underneath of my hair? I'm thinking of trying it, but feel like I may be outside the recommended age range
Do it! I dyed my whole head dark purple, and I was 32 and pregnant. No rules for hair...if you hate it you grow it out.
Was considering cutting my hair short again, mentioned to DH and he flat out said "NO". He loves longer hair. I wanted to chop it to my chin again. Oh well.
I know I didn't have issues like some of y'all but I think at this moment we might be one and done as well. DH already has said he doesn't know if he could put me through c section again. And the infection was painful. But maybe over the next year things will all fade and we might go again. I wouldn't mind having two kids, I just don't want to c section again

I think I need to step away from the interwebz today and get back outside. I'm picking fights with strangers on facebook over the way a truck is parked in a photo. Self, control yourself.

Now I want to stalk May15 but I'm having a hard time keeping up here. Doc wants me to wait at least 2 years before I'm KU again if I want to do VBAC. We were debating about 2 under 2 or a 4 year age gap so that has made the decision for us.
I love all the talk of hair cuts etc! My hair sucks and grows so slow that I've vowed to never cut my hair. I'll be wearing it in a ponytail for the next few years I'm sure. My face is too chubby to have short hair anyway. Anyway, back on track, I want to see everyone's makeovers!

hiimjamie Walt does too and the doc says it gets worse before it gets better. At least it doesn't seem to bother him. You think the all powerful breast milk would help?

I am so annoyed. I made quinoa burgers last night and ds1 refuses to eat it. He took a few bites last night so i saved it for lunch today and he will not touch it. Fine sit there until the bus comes then I'll heat it up for dinner tonight.
