TTC Next One?!
Oh me again................
I think we have covered this before, but now the majority of our lo's are 6 months I was just wondering how you all feel on ttc again or is there no more for you?
Honest opinion too...would any of you start ttc another one now?

Cos I'm a teacher I'd like to give birth at a time so that the summer hols extend my maternity leave but actually get paid for it, so therefore I want an oct or nov baby, so I'd need to get preggers in jan or feb time, so would need to come off the pill by the end of this year. Oh crap, seeing that written down has made it scary!!!! Lol!
But in answer to your question, no I coudn't TTC now, but I would in a few months...!

Yes, we are ttc no2. We have been trying for a couple of months actually but no luck yet. We decided to start ttc cos we would like them to to be close in age but it took 2 years to fall pregnant with my DS & I'm 37 so didn't want to wait and then it take another 2 years. DS is an absolute dream and such a placid happy baby so hoping no2 will be the same!!
Good luck if you decide to go for it xxxx
It took us 13 months with Rebecca, so hoping it doesn't take so long this time round! We haven't told anyone else as other people when mentioned have said too close and we must be mad etc!
I'd still like to hear from all the other Feb ladies....

I am also still suffering from spd so if i did get pregnant it wouldn't be much fun and i would be in alot of pain right from the start
I would be quite happy to wait until Emily is at nursery or school before having another. But if we just have Emily i would be thrilled. I love her to bits
Lx
I would love to keep going but unfortunately they turn in to stroppy 4 year olds then even more stroppy teenagers!!! Maybe if i was 10 years younger i would wait a few years and have another when the big kids are much bigger but im too old!!!
So no ttc over here (no energy to even practice!!)

At the moment, OH is out of work, so for us to afford any more I'd need to get promoted. So none for us for now, but the minute I do manage to land a higher paid job somewhere I'll be demanding to BD lol
On the other hand, I'm incredibly lucky that I got one of each, so if we ended up never having any more, I could live with it. I have always wanted 4 though.
There is 2.5 years between my two, which we had planned as we thought it was ideal, but we sometimes feel really sad for DD cos she wants to play with DS so badly and doesn't understand that he's too little. If I could do it over again, I would have them closer together. If I do get to have another 2, I would probably start TTC after about 6 months - maybe sooner!
Up until two weeks ago I would have said a definite NO! However, now that Adam is sleeping better and we have got our weaning routine established I feel a bit more positive about it! In fact the other day, I kept thinking of names which go well with Adam (I discounted Eve for a girl straight away :lol
However, I want to move out of London before we have another baby as house prices are so ridiculous down here. I'd also like to be closer to family/ILs as I have struggled being on my own so much with Adam...
So maybe in a couple of years!
Ooh exciting all this ttc talk!

I just can't decide though, my labour was horrendous which has put me off, plus I have a prolapse which i have to find out how that affects things (a lovely reminder of my awful labour!).
Also lo is such a lovely child, I love being with her and I worry a bit the next one might be an absolute nightmare child, plus I wouldn't be able to give as much attention to lo? There's also my age, I'm not old by any means but I'm not sure I shouldn't just count my blessings and get on with my life and get back to maybe doing some of the things hubby and I wanted to do rather than spending my time bringing up my children.
That sounds awful doesn't it! Don't get me wrong i would happily spend all my time with my lo and I don't miss not doing things, but I might do if I had two?
God I don't know, shoot me now!!!!!

So... (Haven't discussed this with OH yet) I think we will start trying next summer, June-ish. Then presuming I fall pregnant quickly which I have twice before, baby no.2 will be due in spring 2012, when DS will be about 27 months.
Cuz its just as easy as that...

We've decided now we are going to start trying again in March hopefully for a christmas pudding xx
