Is there anyone else in the same boat?

I definatley know i want another child, but im unsure as to when. One minute i want to TTC in August/Sept of this year, then the next minute i feel its too soon, then i want to TTC earlier than that :hissy: :hissy:

Nightmare!!
 
Yep its the same for us! We are saying Sept this year but then keep wondering if its too soon. But Sienna took a while to concieve so i am worried about that too and think if i leave it too long the gap will be bigger than we want.

I cant try any sooner due to Sienna being a c-section baby.. I keep saying oh leave having a baby and just get another dog :lol:
 
That part worries me too, if it takes as long as it did with Brooke i could be in TTC for some time :lol:

Also number 2 will be our last, so i kind of want to hold off for a while because i know ill never get to be pregnant again, unless there are any accidents :lol:
 
same here really i know in my head i want to wait at least a few years buuuuutt............ i feel broody now probably because kai is growing up so fast and hes not a tiny baby anymore but mostly because i miss being pregnant so much.
lmao at the accidents holly
 
Hiya, yay i was looking for like minded people (see my post "anyone else only 'allowed' 2 babies").

I am soooooooo broddy right now, my lil boy is 12 weeks-but like you Polo, we are only having 2 children so i want to make sure i time it right! I so miss being pregnant, but i get pregnant soon then that's my lot and then what. Or we can wait, but my broodiness is so bad.

:cry:

What do you mean about the c-section thing? I had one with Ollie, 12 weeks ago-is there a certain amount of time you are meant to wait until your preggers again?
 
ME!! sometimes i wonder if i want another than other days im really broody!!

I want tyler to have a sibling and not much of an age gap but then i worry how i will cope with 2!!

They reccomend waiting atleast a year after a c-section to get pregnant as the internal healing takes quite a while and so another pregnancy can although rare cause splitting/rupturing of the scar etc. Like i say it is rare but i have had 3 c-sections now so i aint running the risk :)
 
Ouch, that sounds painful :lol:

I really miss being pregnant, i wouldnt mind being pregnant for a couple of years and then baby can come out when im ready :rofl:
 
LOL gosh i wouldnt wanna be pregnant for longer than what we have to do now! I get huge when i am pregnant so anylonger than 9 months and i'd be in big trouble :lol:

And yep does sound rather painful, i'd love to have done it naturally but my body wont let me so mine have to come out the sunroof.. x

ha ha , i heard u couldn't have more than 3 c sections, is that wrong then?
 
My last consultant said its ok to have more when i was pregnant with Sienna.. My next will 100% be my last though as i dont think its wise to do anymore. I know it used to be said 3 maximum but i guess times have changed and also research x
 
We are undecided.. if I was to have a happy mistake now I'd be over the moon however I want to try right away. OH has a sensible head and keeps telling me to wait but even he is getting broody now. But then im doing a PGCE in a year so Its not right, right now... Argh, I want to have a baby so much! I've been ridiculously broody for well over a year now... How is it possible for me to crave something Ive never had! :S

xxxx
 
Lou it took me almost 2 years to fall pregnant with Brooke so i know exactley how you feel at this point. I think the only difference between being broody before/after having children, is that once youve had one, the whole broody thing is more emotional. I know i get a bit teary when i see tiny newborns, whereas before id just be like "awwww i want one"

I honestly wouldnt mind being pregnant for ages, i was still fine at 9 months could have gone longer, i loved my bump
 
Well I want to try again and have the coil taken out this December and try starting Jan 2011 but I am still not sure as Keira will still be rather young I have always said I want my family young and then bring them up and enjoy life after to my self but still not really sure what I want.

Some times I think to myself well I don't want any more kids as I don't ant Keira to have to share my love I want to be 100% hers, so I am still thinking on the matter x
 
Tbh i never really got to the point about wondering how close in age gaps id want kids as it was a struggle to get pregnant in the first place so all of my focus was on that :lol:

Ideally 3 to 4 i think, i think id like Brooke to be starting nursery when LO no2 is here, but meh, i dont know if i can hold out that long
 
Well if I did try in Jan that would make Keira 15 months old and if I DID conceived in January then Keira would be 24 months so dead on 2 years of agewhen the baby is born as I conceived Keira also in January, so I am thinking to leave it another year
 
I dont think i will be setting a date for TTC no 2, i think ill just 'know' when im ready :wacko:
 
I don't think I'll actually ever get a date set. My OH said that we would be able to try six months after he gets a decent job, so we're just waiting on him getting the job. I also keep going in circles in my mind about whether we should try before our wedding or after it. Same thing about whether I could handle three young ones or if I should wait until Mady is older. :wacko:
 
OMG Nessa look at Tyler in your avatar :cloud9: SO cute

I think, now that im back to work im enjoying earning some money again so id like to build up a little baby fund again before we TTC, just have to finish paying for the wedding in August before i can start on that. Luckily we dont have any debt with the wedding, we have paid for it as we go along
