Hey guys, Our IVF cycle was converted to an IUI due to a dominant follicle :( So bummed although what did I think would happen, I just turned 44 !! All the way through we had at least 7 follicles but 1 was always just a tad larger, not a lot and not a concern. Over thanksgiving the larger one...

Cross post - wondering if anyone has some neat ideas for festive photos. Love to see them if you do or will take all and any tips :) Hope that you are all well :D Teresa http://www3.fertilethoughts.com/forums/showthread.php?p=6292036#post6292036

I've never had any concerns about my son's intelligence. He is bright, enjoys books, is a problem solver, and is incredibly physical. He also spoke very early (15 words by age 1, tons by age 2). Unfortunately that's where his development has stalled. He still talks, but only in single words. ...

Hey guys .. So, curious about food intake at this age and does it change much. R has allways been a pretty good eater but the last month his intake has gone up a lot in one sitting ! He can eat more than me and I worry about his little stomach stretching ! His weight:height ratio has been...

I can't believe how quiet it is here. I still come here and check it all out. I hope everyone is doing well.... :)

Where the heck have I BEEN !! I just noticed that your pg with #2 due in Jan !!! Congrats (albeit major belated) !! It only seems like yesterday that we were all ttc !! So was it another fresh cycle ? Our FET was a bfn last yr and we are trying a fresh cycle one last time when I get af. Not...

I am so excited. I have really been working on the potty training...but they are inconsitent at best. Today Shelby pooped on the potty for the first time! I think I scared her with my excitement, but she was fine once she got her sticker! Here is the proof - she is sitting on a different potty so...

DH was getting Ben's bath ready, and he has started sitting Ben on the potty before the bath. Well, all of a sudden, I heard DH yell, "You peed! You peed on the potty!!!!!!!!!" I think it was a matter of right place, right time, but we will take it!!!

I'm pretty excited. It's through community ed and is actually right next door to our home (it's the daycare/preschool ed center). I'm happy because it will involve kids and parents who will probably also enroll in 3-year-old preschool next year. I hope it gives him a little bit of an advantage,...

while on our mothers' laps we watch them type letters on a screen and lord knows, we know not what they mean but we still sit and watch patiently and sometimes i'll get anxious and want to type too to tell your mommy to send another picture of you you're my online buddy and i'm thankful...

I saw in the update thread that Zack is now in a bed. We moved Jared into a bed this past Friday (he was climbing in and out of his crib and I was afraid he would break his neck!). It was a bit of bad timing because Jared woke up in the middle of the night on Friday night with 102 fever and has...

here is a link to a thread I would love to get opinions on...but in a nutshell my Dad has been very sick and just had to have a 2nd surgery today to remove a mass from his colon. It's so pitiful to watch my Dad be so sick, when he is normally so active. ...

We have been passing around colds in my house, along with some allergies. Last week I had bronchitis and we just can't seem to get well! John William had a fever of 103 this week and missed two days of school. Andrew has had a very croupy cough and just has not been able to shake it, he has been...

I was thinking about John William and wondering how school is going??? I hope all is well...

John William started school this week...and it was much rougher on me than on him! I am always amazed at how well he adjusts to things. He is getting up two hours early, not getting as long of a nap, being dropped off at school for the first time, and is still happy and squealing with excitement! I...

Ben's two year stats... Let me just say that I just LOVE our pediatrician. She is so beautiful (looks exactly like a combo of the girl in Taking Care of Business that played Jewel and and the girl who played Gail Stanwyck in Fletch) on the inside and out, and Ben just LOVES her!!! I will go to...

Jeremy, Zack and I returned from Rockall yesterday evening. It was a relaxing, but somehow also tiring time. We always enjoy the vacation. Plenty of games, fun, food, and family to go around. I wish it would go on for much longer. 8 nights went by much too quickly. Even Zack loved his time, though...

Shelby enjoyed them this year, the first one scared her a little but after that she was smiling and laughing at them. Just wondered how others reacted. Last night we were at a friends house and they were really loud and I was trying to cover her ears but she didn't want me too..LOL..we didn't stay...

she yelled "Popcorn, Popcorn"...LOL...we always get her a popcorn while shopping..it was very cute, I thought I would share it.

Oh, Ben is sure talking up a storm, but you can't understand a word he says. He understands many, many words and phrases. I can talk to him normal and say like, "Ben, walk over near the TV and pick up your blue ball and bring it to mommy" and he does it. But when it comes to speaking, we can...

So we have been playing around with the potty and occassionally having some results.... This week I hung up a "I went potty" chart with stickers for post potty celebrations. Shelby has been telling me she has to potty after she has already gone.....but tonight she finally got it right and...

Here is my little fishy! I can't believe the lack of fear he has for the water. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3nbVBdXbX0
