Right now I'm watching Bringing Up Bates and seriously all those kids are good looking, especially the girls. Dare I say I like them more than the Duggars? (Not because of their looks though!)
linz dd was a mess in the evenings for a while. The only thing that calmed her was baths so we gave her one every night. We Need to break the habit bc she isn't as bad now at night at 15 weeks.
Omg I just realized the 4m wakeful is upon us soon. Did it skip anyone? With dd1 she just had the whole first year wakeful so I'm interested to see how it will hit a kid that actually sleeps.
I fell into a rabbit hole of reading posts on other forums where everyone has like 20 high days their first cycle using Clear Blue Fertility Monitor. Guys, I can't do it 20 days in a row. I'm no rikki
Those people are crazy. I wouldn't even start testing until CD 5 and I would test EOD until day 9. I used to get 2 high days and 2 peak days, then 1 final high. Once I figured that out, I quit testing after the first peak. I did everything I could to minimize the number of sticks I used.

It skipped us! There's hope.
But then something came and kicked us in the ass and sleep has sucked from like 5 months until now. So.
Ugh my sister just texted me about a BritishAirways sale to the England. I would love to go again this summer but I won't be able to travel that far (third tri) and we shouldn't spend the $ on a trip when we are saving for a house.
DH said he was going to do dishes tonight but he hasn't yet. I really want to go back on my bj offer but then he would be so cranky.
Dishes before bj. Use it to your advantage. Have him start some laundry too.
I made dinner tonight! I used the stove and knives and everything! I feel so accomplished. I've not cooked since... Um, a really long time. I can't even remember, actually.
I have a dumb will / estate question (not seeking legal advice). If H and I both passed away, and B (and any future kid) went to live with my sister, then she could use funds from our estate for things like buying a bigger house, right? I mean, yes, right?
Brought to you by niq 's Being a Motherfucking Adult year and estate discussions with my H.
My understanding is that this is dependent on how your will is set up. If you want her to have control of the money you leave B then yes she can but I think you can set things up in a way that the money can only be used for B/other kids.
I asked H "on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being you'll get snipped tomorrow and 10 being you'll do anything to have another kid, where do you fall"... he said 5 or 6. And I was sad that he wasn't higher. So I think that reaffirms my desire to keep trying for #2. Though I kinda feel the same way and don't want to jump through every single hoop to get pregnant. Thankfully I'm only 30 and he's 33 so we have time to just keep trying and get some testing done.
I swear this child is determined to claw her way out of me. She's pushing and pulling and poking as hard as she can. I feel like a water balloon ready to burst.
zarapipe, I will probably end up getting sharp objects thrown at me for saying this but it pretty much skipped us too. We had a handful of nights where AJ would wake up and talk to himself until I gave him the boob but that was the extent of it.
@this 's avatar pic reminded me-I saw a trailer for Pitch Perfect 2 last week and it reminded me of how much I loved the first one. I think I've watched it twice in the last five days, it's driving J nuts but I don't give a fuck.

I am watching them too and I definitely like them more than the Duggars, they are just way more in touch with the real world than the Duggars even though they share many of the same beliefs and values.

I'm listening to a disney songs pandora station after reading the ML thread about frozen songs. It's fun. I have such a voice crush on Richard White (Gaston).

I'm so sorry you guys are dealing with this. I think that secondary infertility is a huge mindfuck and it's not as talked about. Feel free to vent here!

Thanks I go back and forth between feeling so "woe is me" and "wtf is wrong with you?! Some people can't get pregnant at all. Ever." Sigh...

I'm sorry you're going through this. There's a secondary IF board over on TTTC if you're interested. Hugs.
