When did you realise....
.....you were broody?
As you all know I had my DD when I was 17, unplanned. After I had DD, the thought of other children never crossed my mind.After I met my soon2b husband and seen how much of a great step daddy he is and how much dd loves him , it really made me swell with love. It really put me in the notion and made me realise I didn't want DD to be an only child. It doesn't help now that dd is demanding a little sister to play with!! It sealed the deal when oh mentioned how he would love kids. That was a year ago, so now my broodiness is worse than ever. What about you ladies, when did yo 'know'??

Lots of things have made us wait until we have, but we know that come September we'll be in a great position to TTC. We do occasionaly regret waiting as long as we have (like when hubby's mum passed away) but generally speaking we're comfortable with the choices we've made! xx
Minieggs, your avatar makes me hungry!!
then i started getting a bit broody just before we got married - mostly because i can imagine hubby being an amazing father
but i would have to say i finally felt ready to have kids about 2 months ago when my friend had her baby - that's when the switch flicked on
The fact that so many of my friends are pg now (one actaully had her little boy 2 weeks ago) has made me even broodier and i keep thinking 'i want to be like that NOW!!'
Then earlier this year we met friends, and their adorable one year old, and we were both smitten, and getting a little broody. Little did we know that day OHs dad had been taken ill. Sat talking in the dark most of the night trying to reassure OH about his dad, and he was going to pull through, and out of the blue he said I want my dad to meet his grandchildren, my grandfathers both died before I was born.
That was it, we both realised it was straight after the wedding we wanted to start trying. So I think its more been a gradual thing for us... but I'm alright with that, otherwise I'd be desperate to be pregnant right now
Anyway all though I have always been obsessed... I would never have gotten pregnant until I was in a stable 'proper' relationship.... So when I met Russel and realized he was 'the one' my obbsesness(sp?) stepped up a notch. When I fell pregnant the first time that was officialy 'unplanned 'although not unexpected by anyone! Everyone was devastated for us when we lost that wee one, so yeah eversince we lost the first baby we have both been pritty obsessed! X
