Good morning

I think I may have posted on this thread a few years back! but I've still not had another baby but this is the year (not getting any younger ) So a little about me:

Name: Emma
Age: 31- almost 32, where has all the time gone!

Children: two perfect boys, aged 13 almost 14 and 12! - I know I'm crazzzy wanting to start all over- so my family and friends tell me

When TTC- hopefully Sept, my DH needs to have a little op first (VR) would love to announce for Xmas that we are pregnant

What I am doing while waiting: Well I've got the small matter of 60lbs to lose in order to be super fit & healthy, I've got PCOS and losing weight will help stabilize my hormones, hopefully...... oh and DH needs to have his op plus, it would be great if I could plan mat leave etc, I work in education so good planning could leave me with longer mat leave/pay! not sure if I would return to work, maybe 1 day a week or be a SAHM..........

Gender Preference: Well with two boys already I'm going for the pink team- actually I'm pretty desperate for a daughter and will be following all the advice about attempting to choose the sex of your baby!!!!

Ummm I have a memory blank now and can't remember the other questions but please ask if you want to know anything else

I really look forward to sharing the journey and getting to know you all.

Emma
