When we were argyle

[theatokos]

I can tell I'm fertile again. My uterus has that feeling, a certain twitch, that says "Fill me! I MUST MATE!"

It's quite odd. More than a little disconcerting.

In other news, Bennett ate his first mouthful of cat food today.

I think he thinks he is a cat. His first word was a cat name, he is eating cat food...coincidence?

You aren't the only of my LJ friends who is wanting to mate lately...I think there is something in the air!

*chortle* An important developmental milestone, to be sure...

[ewigweibliche.livejournal.com]

He had the funniest look on his face, like "this is gross" and yet he did not spit it out. We'll see how his digestive track enjoys it....

*Snigger* You wait until he tries a spider!

[ewigweibliche.livejournal.com]

Mmmm.... or cat puke or cat litter or a handful of his own poop....

[readthisandweep.livejournal.com]

Yes... In the interests of taste & decency I wasn't going to mention those options. May the eyes in the back of your head be beady!

Jayden has eaten cat food too..... at least he should have a nice glossy head of hair!

See icon!

Bobby has been obsessed with the cat food and worse, water, for a couple of months. We moved it after he ate his first mouthful, but now he's learning to climb stairs....

Is PhD finishing time a good time to be pregnant? Is the UK a good place to have a baby? I imagine the answer to both might be "yes," but for the time, energy and money. Keeping my current job makes the next year a better time for me to get pregnant again. Hmm.

[ewigweibliche.livejournal.com]

There is never a good time to get pregnant. And I'll be 34 in three weeks (or something like that), so I ain't got time to waste!

[miss-swamp.livejournal.com]

I hear that. I'm 33 too, but James is 37--which obviously doesn't matter as much, but he'll still need baby-chasing energy and wants to be able to retire eventually.

Our next kids could be the same age too. :)

There is never a good time, but make sure you have a good daycare lined up in advance if you want to ever get done with your dissertation.

The International Student Support office told me the creche at the University is **free** to students. Thankyoubabyjesus for socialism! Here's hoping the care is good.

[msmidge.livejournal.com]

Excellent! I love the socialists!

[keypike.livejournal.com]

Interesting! Did you have that feeling before Benn?

As for the catfood....I bet that's just the first of many disgusting things he will eat!

[ewigweibliche.livejournal.com]

Yes, the year leading up to Bennett was all about MATING. When we finally "pulled the goalie" we got pregnant pretty quickly.

[miss-malloreee.livejournal.com]

Do you plan on TTC? Soon?

Anna had dog food for the first time the other day, same reaction.

[ewigweibliche.livejournal.com]

We are neither trying nor not trying.

Unless you are using contraceptives you are trying
It's called Baby Bingo!

[readthisandweep.livejournal.com]

Oh yes!

And please, please, please, please, PLEASE do not assume that because you are breast feeding you won't get pregnant. This is the greatest myth since the one about men & 'blue balls.'

[ewigweibliche.livejournal.com]

Yes, but "trying" means actually having sex! The babies are the best birth control ever!

Nora was soooo into cat food...Des on the other hand likes the cat poo, I have to watch that kid.
