Thinking of TTC
hi everyone, i just wanted some advice really...
i am 19 and my fiance is 31, we have been together 2 and half years and have a son who is almost 13months. i was on the pill when i conceived Blake, and currently have the implant in.
i would love to try for another as i am feeling extremely broody, and although my oh says he would love another one, he isnt so keen to start trying so soon. these are his reasons:
*he doesnt get on at all with my parents, who think he has 'ruined' my life etc, and thinks having another baby will make this worse, as they blamed the fact that i got pregnant on him
*babies are expensive, and we only have his wage of 15k a year
*Blake is still breastfed, and has a few "habits" such as refusing to sleep unless he is in our bed, refusing to drink anything other than breastmilk from me (wont drink expressed/whole milk/formula milk - he has been like this since birth), and being very possessive of me (matt thinks Blake would see a new baby as a threat who had came to take mummy away)
would ttc be such a bad thing?? ?

well my dog had 8 puppies yesterday so that will keep me busy for at least 8 weeks lol, and may curb my broodiness!
I am pregnant again, 12+5 and having twins this time!!!
Good to see a familiar name on here...

congratulations! wow twins, are you going to find out the sexes?

Yes i'm definitely going to find out the sexes, can't wait... I really want a boy and a girl... Would be nice... I do know that they aren't identical, which i'm really happy about...
Are you trying then???
Sara x
A boy and a girl would be lovley with twins, and it will be so much easier without them being identical if they are the same sex!
No not trying yet, oh is adamant that we should wait few more months before ttc - how long did it take you if you dont mind me asking?
but my dog had 8 puppies on tuesday so that will keep me busy for the forseeable future!

What kind of puppies are they???
Sara x
the thing is is that i would really like to 'try' for a girl so i want to research what people have done to attempt to influence the sex - if its even possible lol.
they are Kennel Club registered staffordshire bull terriers, and extremely gorgeous!
