Sitting Pretty

Mia Marie sat all by herself tonight!!! We are so excited! She's been doing a great job of sitting while we support her, and she's sat for a few seconds at a time before falling over, but tonight she sat for minutes and minutes all by herself. There were a few times when she started to fall backwards and I caught her (that happened when she tried to get her feet into her mouth as she sat), but when she started to fall forward or to the sides she caught or balanced herself. It was so fun to watch!! What a big girl she's getting to be!

In other news, I had my annual exam yesterday and the doctor commented that it appears I have an allergy to the suture material they used for my c-section. My lower abdomen is still swollen and it itches on occasion. But she acted like it was no big deal and will clear up on its own. We also discussed the timing of our next child. She said that if we're planning on having another, it's not too soon to start thinking about it. With my age, my PCOS, and the fact that it took us 9 months the first time, she's going to be proactive and test my progesterone levels after my next period. If they're okay, we won't do anything, but if they're low she'll give me a prescription for Clomid to use when we're ready.
