Calling All Woman of Strength!!! New Thread 3-18-11

[dnikki0928]

A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape…
But a woman of strength builds relationships to keep her soul in shape.
A strong woman isn't afraid of anything…
But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of fear.
A strong woman won't let anyone get the better of her…
But a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.
A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future…
A woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be unexpected blessings and capitalizes on them.
A strong woman wears a look of confidence on her face…
But a woman of strength wears grace.
A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey…
But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong.

Wow, redoing the thread again....I remember when I joined you gals there were about 4 on the new mommy list :-) Boy has it grown!!! Congrats to all you mommies and all you ladies with BFP's!!!  I'm just recouping at home - I got home this past Monday finally :-) I missed the kids like crazy but I slept half the time I was away. I'm feeling pretty good actually. Just sore and I have to remember to take it easy and no bending or lifting (which is hard having a 13month old...). I have a post op check on the 25th with my doctor here...I hope all of you are doing well and I'm sorry I've been away, I'm busy or busy sleeping lol!! I do check in frequently, just haven't posted - I hope all of you are doing well!!!

Hugs, Love and SSBD to all :-)

Hello ladies, Hope everyone is doing well, lots of catching up to do... my pwd was lost tried reseting it a few so had no choice to open another account...Yamiliany is now 7 months staring to crawl cute as can be..... posted pics nice to be here again xoxoxox

[ad_06]

Life has been sooo busy, it has been forever since I have been on here!

Melisah Caraline "Cara" was born 9.22.11 @ 5:59am via c section. She weighed 6 lbs 9 ozs and was 19 in long!

Conner will be 15 months! He is such a great big brother to Cara.... he loves her to pieces!

Good luck to everyone!

AF showed.  I'm already CD12 now and finished the second round of Clomid on CD 9.  According to the doctor we should start BD'ing again today and every other day until CD 20.  BTW Sept 8th was my 30th birthday.  If I don't get pregnant within the next 6 months I'm giving up.  We have used NO form of BC since my Shelby was born.

Teegan Michaela Lee H~~~~ - born 9.7.11, weighing 6lbs10.5oz measuring 19.75inches

[jmh2005]

Hey ladies! Just checking in to let everyone know I today is my last day of clomid. We are now trying again after 2 years of "fun". Thyroid results came back normal so just trying to proceed on with out stressing another miscarraige.

[krichar]

Where is everyone?I guess we are all busy with summer, lol!!

Sbumblebeeo- any news?? I have been checking in to see :)



Afm-So we had Tristan's two month appointment today. Even though he's 11 weeks and he's weighing in at 14 lbs. 5 oz. yikes and on top of it he has to go see a birthmark specialist because he has a birthmark under his right eye and it's grown bigger and it's too close to his eye, so we have to look into removing it. He also has umbilical hernia and if that doesn't heal by the time he is 2 or gets worse we have to go see a surgeon. Other than that he is all good and we don't have to go to the doctor again until he is six months instead of the normal four months because he's doing so well in fact the doctor didn't even believe that I was nursing him exclusively and was shocked to hear that there is no formula at all involved and then he started joking and asking if I was taking steroids or feeding my baby steroids, lol!! His exact words were " you have milk to make Olympic champions...hahaha!!

[sbumblebeeo]

Almost time to test.  TWW is looooooong.  I am so busy that it's gone fast this time.  We only BD'ed once and I have NO symptoms at all so I am thinking a PFN is in my future but there's always next month, right?

I hope everyone has a safe holiday weekend.
XOXO

[krichar]

Hey everyone!! So our computer is pretty much fried and we need to get a new one, occasionally I can get on but i usually have to use my phone which makes it hard to catch up on everyone. I finally got on today and posted some new pics of Tristan under his page. They are from 6 weeks old (he is 8w3d today) and is now weighing in at 12lbs14ozs :)

Congratulations Keyan. Am really happy for you, your husband and for the child, who is so lucky to have you as his mom. You really made me cry. God bless you all.

[sbumblebeeo]

It stared out my email address!  I'll send it in a private message.

[sbumblebeeo]

***@****  I can't wait to see him and just his first name is ok by me!  I am so happy for you I nearly cried!!!!  YAY!

[Keyan]

Yes, we are extremely happy! it was a real shock for us, our life changed in less than 24 hours, no time to prepare...but, 6 weeks later we are getting used to! we didn't have anything, nothing!! in our case (every adoption is different) I got the call, they didn't say much, just that it was in the range we asked for (girl or boy 0-2), so we couldn't shop all the way...we met the next day with about 6 people, social workers, supervisors, lawyer before metting him...to go over the process, we declined to meet thru video or photo, we wanted to be in "real life"... and then he came in walking a little shy, they sat him on dh's lap and I was crying touching his hair his legs and just staring at him! then we played a little and when it was time to leave, I asked him for his hand to go with me and he gave me his hand and walked out to the car, he didn't cry that night or the next morning, but he did at the pediatrician (he had a cough and no meds)...it has been an amazing experience, I re-live that momment every day in my mind, when he walked in to the room. He is very happy and so are we! I can't post photos or personal info in public, but if you send me your email via message here, I can share with you some pics. I am white, Dh is in between, you can say, light dark (we are mix here), our son is white like me! We have our court date on the 22nd of this month!

[sbumblebeeo]

Oh yeah... I forgot.  I am starting Clomid tomrrow!  We're going to give it a try and see if we can't have another baby.  Hoping for a baby boy this time but healthy is most important.  Wish me luck...

[sbumblebeeo]

YAY!  I am so super excited for you!!!  I can't wait to see pictures of your new son!  What is his name?  What does he look like?  I want details!  I'm bouncing in my seat!!!!  LOL

XOXO

[rachjas0623]

keyan- OMG! We need more details! I am sooo happy for you!

[Keyan]

hi! just dropping in to share my good new, dh and I became parents 6 weeks ago, it was literally short notice, got a call on a thursday afternoon and the next day he came home with us, he is 2 y/o...btw, if you don't remeber it was a year ago we decided to adopt, and just now we were match!! we are extremelly happy, us 3 + 2 happy dogs! :-]

[rachjas0623]

luvkayln- Congrats!

[bfromthed]

luvkayln: YAYYY congrats I am so happy for you!

afm hubby came by last night we spent hours talking and have an appt with a counselor in 2 weeks. He says its not that he does not want to come back but he wants to make sure that he will never hurt me like that agin...I told him that's an excuse. We did bd...this morning though ;-) I guess whatever it takes to get my little one but no meds this month. I had a + opk yesterday hopefully something will catch.
Baby Dust and stick vibes and congrats to the bfp's and the new mommy's!
