Anyone thinking of TTC again already?
Hi ladies. Is anyone else starting to think about when they will start TTC again or am I a complete lunatic?
I feel so guilty for thinking about it already because Finley is only 6 weeks but I just can not wait to be pregnant and go through labour again.
Hubby and have decided to wait until Fin is a year old because we want to give him 100% of our attention but we are both very very broody.
Being a mum is so incredible, I never thought it would feel as great as it does and I really hope that we would be lucky enough to fall again.
Anyone else talked about it yet?

So no more for us, unless the couple of times we've got a bit carried away in the throws of passion (:lol have resulted in no5.

I'll be honest, Lucas was not planned - we've been married 5 years and never used any contraception and so thought we couldn't have kids, but I lost weight and that seemed to kick start my fertility and here we are...Lucas arrived!!! I think for that reason Ian wants to plan the next one carefully...he mentioned 5 years - don't think I can wait that long!
I'm hoping I can bring OH round to the idea of TTC in about 18 months if not before!

Hubby and I were in the same situation as Kayecee. It took us 2 years to get pregnant and I can't bear the thought of waiting that long again. I so miss being pregnant and I feel guilty for thinking about it already as well- Holly-Kate is only 4 weeks! Although it wasn't easy, I loved being pregnant, having a bump and feeling her move. And even though my labour and birth was very difficult I really want to do it again.
We'll think we'll start trying after Holly-Kate has had her first birthday. The rate time is flying by that will be upon us before we know it!

This was my first baby and me and OH have always said we wanted 2 kids.
But I'm honestly not sure I could do it again.
My pregnancy was fine in a way. Near the end I was having scans and monitoring every week due to his growth being slow and him being so small. It was really stressful. He was then born premature at 35 weeks by c section. the birth was fine and my c section was perfect. But my little one then went to special baby unit and to intensive care as he only weighed 3 lb 8 oz. and it was dealing with him not being with me that I'm not sure I could ever go through again. It was a truly horrific time. Although he was mainly ok seeing him in an incubator hooked up to wires and being on a ward surrounded by other women with their babies when mine was not with me.
I don't think its something they could fix and its more than likely would happen again.
Will definitely be waiting a couple of years anyway and then maybe discuss it with the doctors.
I love my little boy but cannot imagine putting myself through that again! I am 37 so not much time to waste if we are going to try for no.2.

I've amazed myself though in how short a time it's taken for me to decide there's no way I can stop at two! I'm terrified at the thought of what my hormones will be like when the third one comes along and I realise that there'll be no more babies until grandchildren...so much so I'd even contemplate a fourth :0)
So yes, we'll be ttc for number three but it won't be for a while. I'd like a bigger gap before the next one - particularly because it should be the last one and so I need to make it last!
I'm going back on the pill next week!

I am not the only one. Looks like there will be a few of us back in TTC soon.
I am determined not to get another POAS addiction when we start again. Hmmm see how long that lasts shall we
I miss being pregnant though.
