I wanted to pop in and give a quick update. 35 weeks and 4 days today. I can't believe how little time I have left. No words can express how anxious and excited I am to meet this little guy. I'm not completely set-up by any means so he can take his time getting here but I am ready to meet him :)
We had our baby shower on Sunday. It was nothing short of overwhelming to say the least (in a good way).
We were so blessed to have so many friends and family show up (it was co-ed) and my living room is proof of the generosity from all our guests. This kid has more stuff than I do!
I can't wait to finish sorting & cleaning all his stuff. I think I'm finally nesting (about time!) and I just can't focus anymore at work. I have two more weeks left before I leave and I'm counting down the seconds, lol.
Lil Ducky is doing well. He was 6lbs at my 34 weeks and 5 day ultrasound, putting him in the 73 percentile. He is going to be a big boy and it’s not coming from me. I can thank his 6ft father for that, lol.
I still have a Lamaze class coming up this weekend and a meet and greet with Ducky's future pediatrician. After that it’s all just a waiting game...
Thank you ladies for all the support I've received throughout this journey. Every one of you is a mother of the heart and I hope that I can lend that same support back to you to get you to this point in your journey when the time comes. When it comes down to issues of infertility nothing keeps someone going like an uplifting community who understand every fustrating feeling. You all are just incredible women.
Quaking on,

Congratulations on your pregnancy! How exciting! :) I came across a blog you wrote in Aug 2012 about Soy Isoflavones, and I was curious if it was the SI that worked for you? I am on my 1st month of trying them now, on CD 8, and I've already had a positive Ovulation test. I decided to try the SI's because my husband and I have been trying for about 7 months with no luck and because I have a very long cycle 37-40 days with ovulation usually on day 18-21. Congrats again! :)
ReplyDeleteHello Janet!
DeleteHonestly yes I do believe that the SI's were what worked for me since it was the first and only time I had tried them. That month I also used preseed & kept up with the SMEP approach (as much as I could). I also remember for some reason the sex was incredibly good that month, lol. Only thing new that was introduced was the SI's. Good Luck! I hope they will work for you as well :)
