I feel exactly like that. I was in Mothercare with my son in his pram when he was 2 days old and looking at all the pregnant women in there made me broody. My husband thought I was nuts!
It took us over 3 years to fall pregnant with my son so we didn't bother using any contraception once we'd had him in case it was going to take that long again (it didn't!). So I think for me it stems from having 3 years of obsessing over ovulation, knowing all the fertile signs, symptom spotting every 2ww and just being so desperate for a child that it's hard to switch off. I'm now pregnant again with another boy and I would love a girl so we will go for number 3. Number 3 has to be the last one for us as we don't have enough room for anymore, plus I think any more than that would be too much of a handful! But I do wonder if after the next baby, will I ever switch off and go back to those lovely pre-TTC days where I didn't have a clue about ovulation and never thought about babies! x
I agree with this!! We are currently TTC#2 and we plan on at least 3, but I'm worried I'll just want to keep on going and going and going.....It's such a hard feeling to shake. Before we started TTC again I was already stalking my cycles and I would think- I'm fertile right now....okay, AF is due in 3 days...etc. lol.
