How I look when I hear that someone brought snacks to the faculty lounge

[cupcakequeenie]

I have never said anything truer than that. The moment I heard Abby cry coming into this world, I held my breath & shed some tears. She is the reason for my life now. I never really believed in "love at first sight", until I saw her for the first time. I never loved anyone or anything as much as I loved her in that moment. She is the sparkle in my eye. I'm so incredibly in love with this little human being. I would do anything for her. Her smile melts my heart. Her funny faces and personality crack me up daily. She has forever changed our lives, and I'm so excited to see what happens next. #babygirl #myworld #thoughshebebutlittle #sheisfierce

Pregnancy survey #1

How far along: 15w5d Weight gain: No joke, 1/2 pound haha Sleep: eh, could be better. Getting up to pee... But that's normal without being pregnant. But the husband has been keeping me up with his snoring! Baby purchases this week: nothing yet. Might go buy our stroller in a couple days though! Best moment regarding baby this week: we had a normal OB appt (after not seeing or hearing the baby for 3 weeks) and we got to hear it's heartbeat! It's always the best sound to hear. Gender: will find out in about 3 weeks! Cannot wait! Movement: baby is moving, just can't feel it yet. Food cravings: no actual "cravings", but once I get something in my head, I want to have it. Food aversions: no aversions. But I can't take super strong smells (they make me gag).. Like raw fish or chicken, heavy cleaners, etc. How’s Mama? Mama is tired! But very happy and excited for things to come. Miss anything? Sleeping good, a regular poop cycle, and occasionally a beer on a hot day. BUT, all worth it. What I am looking forward to: finding out the gender and getting the baby's room started. Our baby in veggie/fruit terms: baby is the size of a lemon (according to one app).

Patience patience patience!

Can't things just fall into place? I'm battling my own demons (for lack of a better word). This month marks our 13th cycle. And boy has it been a very long, very rough ride. We've had 2 miscarriages in the past 6 months. Back to back. Lost one in September, and another in November. Got pregnant really fast after the first miscarriage. I've been under the impression that I would have an easy time getting pregnant again. Well, not yet at least. I have a form of the MTHFR gene mutation. Nothing too serious. My fertility doctor isn't too worried. Will probably need to go on progesterone suppositories once I'm pregnant, and possibly need to take lovenox (or the other brand I can't remember now) injections. Depending on some blood work results. I'm really bummed out though. I didn't think it would take me this long to get pregnant again. Next month (June) my baby would have been due. I could have sworn I would be pregnant by then (there's still a chance, so fingers crossed!). Not to mention my sis is pregnant with twins (IVF). I'm completely happy for her and my BIL. Cannot wait to meet those little boogers. But it's really hard seeing her belly grow, and hearing her talk for hours about her pregnancy... Knowing I've had a loss as well. *sigh* jealously is a bitch. My ovulation is also 2 days late now. I'm totally stumped. My ovulation has been on target for the last year! Always on cd16 or cd17. Been peeing on OPKs for days now! I'm so stumped. I don't get it. Maybe stress from work is delaying it. I hope I didn't miss it! Pray that I get my positive opk tomorrow and can really get down on the baby making. And pray that in 2 weeks we will see 2 beautiful dark pink lines! Oh how I have been waiting to see those lines. Just needed to vent. I'm worried. Stressed. Everything in between. And I know that isn't healthy. And I'm trying to relax. Maybe it's time to look up some yoga! Baby dust and prayers would be much appreciated... And right back at all u moms and ttc-ers.

Miscarriages are devastating – and the very last thing someone who has just gotten pregnant wants think or read about. But if there were a few simple foods that you could add into your diet or remove from your diet so as to decrease your chances of experiencing a miscarriage, you would, wouldn’t...

[cupcakequeenie]

Yes to all of this!

Moving forward after mmc

Moving forward after a missed miscarriage (not to mention having to get through a D&C) is so much harder than dealing with a natural miscarriage (which hubby and I have already dealt with too). Having both, back to back, within just a couple months of one another, is even harder. Some days I think I'm okay and I can move forward. Other days, are just so much harder. All I can think about, day dream about, hope & wish for is a child of our own. Going through two miscarriages makes me that more appreciative of what I had, even for such a brief moment. It makes me yearn and want a child that much more. I'm no longer scared to be a parent, no longer scared of "how will we afford a baby?" Or "will we be good parents?". I know we are going to be fantastic parents. Not perfect, by far. But we will be amazing parents to our future kids. Lately it's been pretty rough. I'm coming up to my ovulation, and there's nothing I can do. I still have to wait and let my body get back to normal. It's so hard knowing I can just try again, and also knowing that I can't :( getting pregnant for us seems pretty easy (thank The Lord!). I just hope, wish & pray that next time around our little baby will stick around until the end of the ride. And be as happy & healthy as it can be (God willing!). Just had to vent and let this out. Been holding in too much lately, and it's time I let it go.
