Calling All Women of Strength!!!

[mommyin10]

A Strong Woman VS. A Woman Of Strength


A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape…
But a woman of strength builds relationships to keep her soul in shape.

A strong woman isn't afraid of anything…
But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of fear.

A strong woman won't let anyone get the better of her…
But a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.

A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future…
A woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be unexpected blessings and capitalizes on them.

A strong woman wears a look of confidence on her face…
But a woman of strength wears grace.

A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey…
But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong.

dnikki: I'm feeling good, thanks :) I think it's a great idea to ask your doc to
take you off work soon!

Ok, nevermind! I'm smarter than I thought! ;) I'm kinda sad my pregnancy tracker's not on there anymore! :( Oh gosh, I already miss being pregnant!! I guess Addy won't be the youngest for too long, huh?! ;) lol!

[luvkayln]

Does anyone know how to delete your pregnancy tracker? :) Don't laugh, I just can't figure it out! lol! :)

Hi ladies! Sorry i've been mia! It's crazy but I haven't been on the comuter since Xmas eve, that's definately not normal for me! ;) I've been SO sick this week, it su cks! :( It started with a sore throat and then went to the stomach flu, and now it's just a regular flu feeling. And actually today I'm feeling much better and my temp is gone, so I'm hoping it stays gone! I ended up getting masitis when Adalynn was 2 weeks old, which is an infection in  your boobs from breastfeeding. And that makes you feel like you have the flu too. Your bbs are SO sore, and you just feel achy all over, it was horrible. And then that went away, and then the real flu came... figures! ;) Adalynn's 3 week appointment went great! She's back at her birthweight, finally! :) Her jaundice is completely gone as well, which is awesome! So her next appointment won't be until she's 2 months old, which is only a month away! It's hard to believe she'll be 4 weeks old tomorrow!! Her first Christmas was great, although she slept through it all! lol! :) We did get some pics of course, so I'll post them soon. I have so many I need to save on our computer, I just really haven't had any time! She is actually starting to stay awake more during the day now, so I think we're starting to get on a routine! Yay!! :)  Anyway,  I read through all the posts and I'm glad everyone's doing good! :) Hopefully I can start checking in more often! :) I do miss you guys when I can't check in, but just know that I do think about you guys all the time! :) Happy new year ladies!!!

Ok so my little update is that I just went for my blood test :-) I am going to try and get my results earlier however I think that my chances are very slim!!! either way I am doing a home test on thursday morning, I have a good feeling about it but because I have had so many let downs in the past I am really trying to not get my hopes up to high. I am having another wierd thing happen to me though however it can totally be put down to hormones... I am so emotional lol i am usually a really thick skinned person and I very rarely cry but the last couple of days I have balled out crying 3 times :-/ I mean it could be stress or just hormonal but it is quite weird for me to do that.

dnikki0928 - Yer I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 16, I have my hormones checked once a month. My hormones are everywhere... the hormone that makes you release an egg is only at 3 and it has never ever gone any higher than that as far as I know.

[dnikki0928]

lilmzk: You're welcome :-) As for your irregular cycles, have you had any of your hormones checked? I used to have a cycle 2-3 times per year...Turned out I have PCOS, Endometriosis and a hormone imbalance from the pcos! Just a thought....

Mommyin10: My next appt. is on the 12th...I'll be almost 35wks then :-) After that I should start my weekly visits (already!!!). This pregnancy has just seemed to fly by! It sounds like DH is taking great care of you and all 3 of you are in good hands :-) The tightening are the BH contractions - I was told the same thing. I've only had it happen once or twice where I had 4-5 in an hour but they always quit. I'm feeling better as far as the cold goes...it's on it's way out finally. My pelvis still hurts probably worse than before and if I go grocery shopping or stand to long I get soooo much pressure "down there." (like today lol). DH is working hard to get the last of the moulding up so hopefully he can get that bed out of the nursery! At the store today I stocked up on pads and such for afer delivery and tomorrow I'm going to clean the cupboards (some of them) and get all the bottles and such washed! I'm trying to pace myself so I have things to do, but I'm sure I won't have any problems since I want to clean EVERYTHING lol!!! Well, I'll let you get back to whichever and I'm sure we'll talk later today or tomorrow :-) Have a good day!!!

Hugs, Love and SSBD to all :-)

*************************************************************************************
There are a lot of appts tomorrow! :) Everyone, be sure to update asap :)

Keyan: Congrats on the smiley!!! :)

kmcarino: Ryan Joseph goes well together! :) If there's an issue with "S's", then will Joshua work? Maybe it's different w/an "SH"? Thanks for the good luck ;) Same to you for tomorrow!

Lilmzk: Yes, hopefully this is your cycle! :) Today's your blood test; right? Best wishes!!!

Dnikki: That's great dh is making progress! :) My dh started the hardwood flooring yesterday & should get a lot of it done today (in between cooking for me, grocery shopping, etc!) Poor guy! He's really amazing & I'm so happy he's here for me :) I'm feeling good. I do get an all-over belly tightening occasionally, which is uncomfortable, but not painful. My ob said if it happens 4 times in an hour, to let her know. So far, it's happened 3 times, but it's not consistently every hour. So, we'll see! ;) How are you feeling? When's your next appt?
