August Thread for TTC Blue - Chit Chat!

[Flava]

Flava: Your girls room sounds cute. Do their comforters match? We did red and blue stripes in our boys' room. You are right, it took forever. We ended up putting chair rail half way up and painting the bottom half the blue color. I'll show you a pic if you will show me yours

Thanks ! I will post pics when is done and sure I like to see the boys room!

Alexis- good that you DH is ok!!
I put on the same like you ...so hate it! and yeah your mom is not nice lol

[Flava]

oh forget to ask, yesterday I had ewcm and today Im back to spotting. wth is this?? Never had it before. Maybe from some sups or all the work around here? We are making a whole new room for the girls from the garage and have to work around 4 kids here , we have no help just me and DH .(we also actually do the room alone)
Anyway I dunno

Iluv that would be so neat to see your baby week by week on u/s! I'm glad you've been getting to do that. And TOTALLY skip out on responsible things and go to the boardwalk anytime you can, for sure! Glad the exhaustion and nausea seem manageable at this point; a few days down isn't terrible ... FX it gets better!

Kris, so sorry to hear you're so sick! I hope that passes quickly. I'm with Iluv, wise to not have 2 pregnancies in the same house so close together! And to make sure you're not having twins When is your 1st scan?

Flava, your post reminded me that when I was little I had a bedroom with wide, vertical pink and white stripes. It was like a pink and white jail, LOL! I think that is great you let the girls pick out the colors. I let my girls pick out new bedding a month ago: DD1 got Scooby Doo, and DD2 got Wall-E. If I have a boy he'll probably pick princess bedding at this rate

Hi to TTC5 and Tink! Glad to see you girls! Looking forward to your attempts!

My first scan is in 6 days by some freak of nature I were to be having twins then Sarah wouldn't try for quite a while. probably a year or so.

Oh lord, swine flu!?!? I hope they figure it out and you feel better soon, Kris!!!!!! Keep us updated!

Well I don't have swine flu thank god, just some other virus that is making me sick and making my white blood cells a little too high. I could take antibiotics but i don't want to risk the baby so i will wait it out. I am getting better, i think the nausea is mostly morning sickness but it's all day and all night so not very pleasant.

Kris-Im sorry hope you get better fast! The nausea is so bad I hate it. I got it for 22 weeks with DD4 all day all night , yuck!
