I definitely know how you feel. I started the placebo pills on my pills last night. Then since I was expecting to TTC in July I got a new prescription from my ob/gyn for the nuvaring (current BCP is breaking my face out like crazy). Then OH surprised me by saying wait until after we move as we may start TTC much sooner. So now I'm going to be starting a brand new form of BC and dealing with horrible side effects for potentially one month. Ugh!

I don't really have a to do list. All OH and I are really waiting for is our move in a few weeks. I know OH wants us to get our bills paid for the first month there to make sure everything is still good financially and then potentially start TTC in May rather than July. I know he had a lot more stuff he wanted to do like buy a new car for me but I think he's starting to experience some broodiness himself as he has told me that can now wait.

I need to lose the last 5 pounds of baby weight. I promised myself I would lose all of it before TTC again.

Other than that, I'm just waiting to hopefully try in June/July. It is frustrating because we are suppose to move back to the US next July so I'm trying to time things so I give birth March-May 2013. I love the health care system here and want to give birth here again.

DH sent me a message last night and said the company might want to move us to China

or move us back to the US earlier. That would definitely put a hold on TTC

. I hate not knowing what is going to happen.

Our to-do list is basically just carry on saving! Ideally, we'd like DH to have a full-time job before we have a little one, but it'll be at least a year until we physically become 3 people, so that could happen. It's the same with moving somewhere else - I'd like to be in somewhere with central heating at least (right now, our flat has a storage heater in each room) before we physically become three, but we have time.

Hello,

Another very excited first-timer here planning to TTC in July/August

To do list mainly consists of losing weight (28lb - eek!), getting fit and moving house.

J04NN4 · Mar 29th, 2012, 13:33 PM

Our list was full of pretty huge things so luckily got most of them done by now:

[x] graduate
[x] get married/have a fancy honeymoon
[x] live financially independently for three years (weren't sure how we'd manage without student loan subsidising us

)
[x] get our business turning over £100,000 a year or more
[x] OH learn to drive
[x] get a car

so only one left to go:

[] move house - which will be happening on May 19th. Woo hoo!

Oh and yay I Love Lucy, we can be SAHM together! Do they have good daytime TV in the US?

Most daytime TV here consists of soap operas, which I'm not a fan of. I seriously record my evening shows/movies and purposely save them for the next day so I have something good to watch. What about over in the UK?

Oh No Lilyanne, that is no good at all. I have friends in German and have spent a lot of time there over the years, I love it too. I hope it all works out for you. What does your OH do? It sounds as if his job makes you travel a lot.

YAY

Your here

chickenchaser · Mar 29th, 2012, 14:41 PM

Well our list it is nearly done too. We have just started DH 'playroom' and that should be finished in a month or so. I want to get all the fencing done around the garden (it is the last thing we need to do to get our garden nice) then I just need to decorate the bedrooms but I can do that while TTC or Pregnant. So all looking good really. SSSOOOOooooooo excited. X

EDIT - Oh and nearly forgot, there is also our holiday in July but hay that will be mainly for BD.
