Tanya - I feel (and think we all do) the same way. I miss the ladies on the thread for those that have been TTC for over a year but it just seems unfair to post too much about LG when some are still TTC. I usually only post updates when someone there asks. Still, I've never found a board where I felt as connect as I have here and I want to brag about and talk about Mugs...who, by the way, went to bed at 6PM tonight! Normal bed time is around 7...I don't think she got all of her naps in at daycare. I missed having our time together tonight since she crashed so soon after we got home. Still, she must need the sleep and I'm sure I'll being hearing from her around 4AM!

Jenn - That's exactly how we felt. I really didn't want anymore children, although the OB recommended that I not because I was beginning to pull apart in two tiny areas. We have three together with a pretty substantial age difference; 12, 8 and 3 months - so we were happy being done.
That said - the tubal is a no-thought no-worry method and I never had any PTLS issues so I was OK with having them tied again.
Kelly and Cretia - It's great to see you guys here!
I'm so grateful for this thread. It's nice to meet other ladies and have a good place to post with other moms. I've always felt very welcome on my Sept 06 thread and Mommies of Summer 08 - but it's nice to find other mom's and have a comfortable place to post about our little ones. I hate posting about Carly on outstide threads when I know so many ladies are still ttc, having losses and I remember all to well the pain of reading those posts when I was stressing the ttc or going through losses myself.

Tanya - we're thinking MAYBE one more in about 2 1/2 years - maybe. If we do decide for one more then I will get my tubes re-tied after. I enjoyed 10 years of no thought birth control. For now, we're using birth control, breast feeding and careful avoidance of ovulation ;-) quite the opposite of what we were doing a year and a 1/2 ago!
Crecia - lilypie.com makes putting together the tickers VERY easy and saves them in an account so you can go back and edit them. I try to update her picture every few weeks. Posting pictures is also pretty easy. I upload mine to photobucket.com and then post the link into my thread/message reply. HTH!

Jenn and Hope2webb thats how we feel also that he get's very excited when he sees his brothers and he wants to be around them alot. We also want to enjoy him as a baby but notice if we blink we might miss something with him. I love this new thread and look foward to chating with you ladies and as soon as I learn how to post some pictures or those cute little tickers with the picture beside them I will post a pictue of my little man. Talk to you mommies later.

I'm in! This thread is a great idea. We had our TR baby - Carly Jane - May 13, 2008. We are done having children, I had my tubes re-ligated for personal and health reasons.
I look forward to meeting all the TR babies and moms!

Crecia - I'm glad LG wasn't that mobile that soon. It's hard enough now that she wants down and I know it's just going to get worse. It's that cross between wanting them to grow up and wanting them to stay your baby.
hope2webb - thank you, we think she's pretty cute! I'm on mainly during the day while at work (horrible, I know!) but once I'm home I have my hands full with LG and getting dinner ready, bath time and planning for the next day that I rarely have time to get online.
Definitely update with pictures when you can! Jenn

Crecia...wow! 4mos. that is early. He must see his older brothers up and moving around and wants to be where the action is...lol
Jenn...Lydia Grace is just adorable! I need to get some updated photos into my album to share. I know about being demanding! Sev is a great baby, but boy he can sure get an attitude when he is tired or hungry.
I figure nap time is my time to jump on the computer and dink around...so...thats when you will catch me popping in and out of here!

Hi ladies was just passing through and saw this thread. I'm also a TR mom. I had my son on 3/12/08. I also feel like you ladies that I don't fit in on any of the other threads. I try to even post on my old threads and never get a response back from the ladies which does not bother me cause I know how it is when were in that TTC moment so I know how the ladies are feeling we were feeling the same way at one time. I just miss chating with the TR sisters that I had but I guess I can make new sisters. I'm also not TTC but am not preventing it also I have 4 sons now and would love a daughter. It is great to be a new mom again but I just don't remeber my other sons moving so fast. My son is 4 months and he is crawling already and pulling himself up on the side of his bed. We just love him.
I feel a lot like you do - that I don't quite fit in any where else and I MISS it! As for going on and on...don't apologize - that's what this thread is for! Sev sounds wonderful and like he's making amazing progress. I can't believe how fast they grow up.
Lydia Grace just had her 6 month check up a month ago and weights 16 pounds even and is 25 inches long. She has two teeth and is just starting to think about getting up on her hands and knees. I definitely think she wants to be more mobile and the idea of crawling is very interesting. She is starting to want to get down on the floor when I'm holding her. She's also getting more demanding which isn't surprising!
I love being a mother again and every time I look at her I think about doing it again!
