TTC/Preg Check in July 15th

Ok I am offcially BORED and tired of playing. My mom comes tomorrow so I"ll have a grown up around..thank goodness!!!!
Ok question-does sugery, or pain meds effect a womans eggs? I know having/doing these things when pregnant effects the development of the embryo etc. I was just wondering if all this Ive had done will effect say my next egg at ovulation and maybe I should wait a month.
 
You should be good to go, Susan. As soon as you find out your pg---you'll want/need to review the necessity of medications---but for now you should be good. :) Narcotics, in general, are category C during short term use in pg.

Hi everyone. Good day today. Everyday challenges, but not related to pg. :)

Stephanie, That is so great that DH helps you so much! You are a lucky lady!

Susan, I'd say she was def. rockin' the tree!!! Glad you're getting some company. It'll be a nice break for you.

Hello Melanie! Glad you're ahving a good day!

--------
Canoeing was great fun - we're resting up for a few minutes and now we'll head outside to the beach! I am getting TONS of color!
 
I am laughing as I read these posts. My ds is streaking through the house naked. He is 4. He prefers never to wear a shirt. I have 4 sisters and I am completely out of my element with these little men. I asked him why he doesn't have a shirt on, he says because he is a boy.
Maggie-sorry that you cut yourself. I never ever go to the dr unless I am dying (or pregnant, which feels that way most of the time}( ). There isn't much neosporin and a bandaid can't fix! swollen feet are not my speciality, but I do know that a soak in epsoms salts really does help!
Kate-you probably have a rocking tan by now! Amy Bento is a little too much to take even not pregnant IMHO. I just like Cathe.
Susan-I think your eggs will be fine! I understand about the adult conversation, some times you just need to not play at a 7 year old level! We are watching The Shaggy Dog right now, and i am enjoying it a little too much!
Melanie-I hope your day turns around.
Stephanie-did you get a workout in? I am going to try again a little earlier tonight, like at 5 instead of 7-8.
I just ate 2 cheese sticks and some ham, which I haven't been able to stomach for weeks. They tasted so good. Drop in later.
 
Mikkia, yay to an appetite! Ham sounds wonderful right now. And I usually don't like it too much - wierd. Yes, the tan is present. I am such a whitey - it's so wierd to see myself bronzed. And just in time for RT!!! I prefer Cathe over Amy, 10X over. I only have Adv. Step Challenge from Amy and I've only learned thru the WU and 1st combo. What WO are you doing tonight?

----
I did another long beach walk with Isabel - and yes, she was on my back for part of it thru the water. She was absolutley WIGGING that a big fish was after her. I remember being petrified of fish too (actually still am and she was freaking ME out that there really was one - LOL!!!) so I caved and piggy-backed her. Resting up now tho, Mama Stephanie!;-)
 
Hi girls,

Thought I would drop in and say a quick hello. The boys got home safely from their camping trip! Yesterday my sister and her kids were over all day swimming. We had a great time. Today was gymnastics and more swimming. We have Jiu-Jitsu tonight so I am going to lay down for a little bit.

Kate, your vacation sounds like so much fun and yeah on the tan.

Maggie, sorry about your finger cuts hurt so bad. I can't believe how close you are to having that little baby.

Susan, I am glad AF came. Now it is time to start trying again.

Hi Mikkia, Stephanie and Jen!

I am going to get my nap in b/f I run out of time.

Candra
 
Hey!
Kate too funny about you freaking out about fish after you. Were you trying to calm Isabel, but still looking behind to see if there really were fish...just in case? haha
We made a pound cake today. Turned out good. So far I havent had any, but Im sure I will tonight.
Dh and I have decided to ttc for 3 more cycles. My plan has always been to start dental hygeine school next fall (if I get accetpted), and that will still give me time. My mom will be retired then and if I need her she can be my nanny. I have one more semester of pre-reqs then I can apply. So that is the plan.
dinner is about ready. later
 
Candra, Good to hear from you! You have been BUSY!

Susan, You betcha I was lookin' for fish! They totally completely freak me out - even little minnows. It's totally dumb, just a wierd thing of mine that won't go away. Pound cake! MM! All you need now is some vanilla ice cream! Sounds like you have a plan all laid out - here's to having Mama nanny for you!
 
Hi ladies,
Candra--Your post made me tired! Hope you got your nap in!

Mikkia--Glad your appetite is back. Ham does sound good, and I usually don't care for it much either. Maybe we all are craving salty stuff.

Susan--Mmmmmm Pound cake!!! Sounds great! I made a batch of Melanie's muffins. I've become addicted to them.

Kate--Glad you had another nice walk. Walks are so much nicer and less "exercise-like" at the beach! Sadly, I didn't get a workout in today. Too busy. But tomorrow is another day.

----
Doctor's visit went well. The baby's heartbeat was strong, and I measured right on schedule. I took Oliver, and he enjoyed hearing the heartbeat. We then ran a couple of errands together. My mom kept Henry, and she brought a DOZEN Duncan Donuts with her, as usual. Ugh. Oh well, the kids love them and they never get them, so it was a special treat. DH took Oliver to the neighborhood pool, and Henry and I were settling down for a quiet time, but they just came back because the pool was too crowded, and now Oliver is mid-meltdown, so I better go. Hope everyone had a wonderful day and has a good evening!! :)
 
Stephanie, Beach walks ARE great - wish we lived on one. But then maybe we wouldn't appreciate it as much. Glad the appt went well for you. I'm sure Oliver enjoyed some Mommy-Son time. Yum on teh donuts! Sooooo hard to resist! YIKES on the meltdown - Gina had one tonight too - guess we've been skipping naps too often. We'll definetly take one tomorrow!

I just finished Classical Stretch. Feels good to get all loosey-goosey!
 
Hey!
It's about 9 here. Im about to hit the sack. Today has been my best day pain wise-yayyyy. Hopefully it will just get better each day. The pound cake was yummy, so was the ice cream :)
Talk to you guys tomorrow!
 
It's late, so I am not sure how many of you are here yet...
I just got back from my friend's house. She makes the best choc covered strawberries (I only had about 10}( ). I did TJ Cardio Party this morning. The morning exercise thing seems to work for me now, but we'll see when I go back to teaching in the fall. I probably won't want to wake up at 4:30am to exercise. I got about a 10 minute nap today. I was tired, but just couldn't sleep. By the time I finally did doze off, DS was upx( . It is going to be hot and humid the rest of the week, so I am sure I will be swimming and taking it easy. Even though the exterminator was here last week, I still see ants!!!!!!!!!!!! They said to wait a full 2 weeks to call so their treatments can work, but I am seeing way too many ants, so they are getting a call tomorrow. Will they ever go away??? Yuck!!!!!!!!

Candra-How was your nap? I hope it was longer than mine.

Melanie-Any workout while pregnant is a good workout, so the teacher is me says, "Great job"!

Kate-Was your night better tonight? We have all been there with our DH. I hope he wised up today.

Mikkia-100 degrees? Yikes! I tend to exercise in the morning (even during the school year), but when I do exercise at night, I am more wound up than usual.

Susan-Sorry to hear about AF and that you are still constipated. Nothing is worse than not being able to poop and feeling so bloated. I have been eating on of the Kashi cereals this past week, and that is awesome for doing the trick. That will be nice to have your mom around! Mine was here lastweek, and it was so great.

Stephanie-I am glad to hear that your dr. appt. went well today (yeah). I can just imagine how poor Oliver felt when he thought he was going swimming only to have to come back home again. I hope his meltdown didn't last too long.

Jen M.-My neighbor is a social worker, but she makes and decorates cakes on the side, and she makes great money. That is a good business to get into. You can always try it on the side, and if your business builds, then you can explore expanding it.

Maggie-How is your finger? I wouldn't have gone to the ER/doctor either. I wouldn't want to sit around forever. The students' first day is Aug. 25th, and I have inservice starting Aug. 20, 21 and 22nd. I have yet to move into my new classroom. The part I am moving into is almost done being built/finished, so it should be soon.

Hi Lisa, Hi Trish, Hi Anne!

Hi Morris and Kristan (from the "other side" as one poster put it). How are you doing? How are your babies?

If I forgot anyone, I am sorry. I am really tired now!
Good night!
-Jen
