11 WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On a not so happy note, my husband's father passed away this morning after battling cancer. May not be around for a couple of weeks as we have to travel interstate for the funeral. Take care everyone and chat soon
 
I am so sorry for your loss Kelly. Have a safe trip.
Extremely excited about the good news though.
 
Same here

I am truly saddened by your loss, but tickled pink by your good news!!!
 
Alot of prayers lately. Prayers for strength in your heart , mind, spirit and body. That the lord gives you strength to get up in the morning and sing. And friends to share your sorrow. To smile at the children and them to smile at you. I truely believe in Angels , I do. Silent love. Many prayers.
 
I believe in angels too stilldancing, I asked them last night to be with him to help him pass peacefully and painlessly and I truly believe they were with him when he went. He was a fighter and he fought for a long time. I'm not the one that needs to be prayed for, it's my mother in law and their family. My MIL lost her mother 3 weeks ago and her husband today, I can't imagine the grief she must be feeling. Thank you for your kind words and prayers.

I am so sorry for you Mother in law's loss. That must be painful to the whole family. They will be resurrected.
 
Kelly,

Thinking and praying for your MIL and your entire family during this difficult time.

I will be praying for your MIL and family as they go down the road of grief. I will pray for strength for your MIL.
 
13 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are still on a lower dose of lamictal and should be off it altogether now but decided to keep him on it while we were away, there was enough sadness without possibly adding to it. So now I have to get brave and drop the meds...wish us luck!!

Hi Kelly

I am so glad you are able to get off of a medicine that does not work for you. My neurologist is slowly getting me off of Neurontin. He said that he was going to do one pill at a time. However, I have noticed my Neurontin is a lighter color and is as small as my Prilosec. They were always larger. I hope it works. I have been on Neurontin for a long, long time.
 
Good luck with coming off your medicine feast. Changing is not fun, I just changed from Tegretol to Lamictal and it was such a long process!
 
I'm so sorry for your loss and hope in time you can find comfort in your memories.

BUT CONGRATS!!!! 13 weeks GREAT!!! I'm so happy for you and add you to my prayers that this is part of your past. Good luck!! Hugs to the baby!!

My little baby has tonsilitis! He is so sick, I feel so sorry for him.
 
Sorry to hear that Kelly D. I grew up with multiple infections, but I am glad that my mom did not rush me to have them taken out. It was quite the fad back then.
 
I know what you mean Robin. My mother rushed me to the hospital to have them taken out. It was it was the fad, I had no infection.

When my children were born, I waited until they had very bad infections. Then, I took them to the hospital to have them taken out. The infections were in the tonsils. They were about 8 years old. My daugter and my other son have never had to have there's taken out. They still have them.

Kelly, one way to keep the temperature down, is to put a cold cloth on your baby's head. I wish you and your baby well. Keep us posted!!
