Name: Kaity
Age: 28
Relationship status: Married nearly 8 years, together for 12

How long until TTC: a little under 5 months (hopefully)-- April 2016

Reasons for WTT: We needed to move (check), lose weight (almost check), get our son weaned and STTN (check), allow my hormones to balance after bf'ing and wait for DS to turn 2.

Anything you want to accomplish while in WTT, before TTC: finish losing weight! 60 lbs off, 10 to go. Possibly running a half marathon. Also, have a doctor appt in 2 weeks to start getting hormones balanced. They are way over the board and only having a 9 day LP. Its a dealbreaker to trying if its not sorted by April.

2

Age: Almost 29

Relationship status: Common law, but hoping to get engaged and married before too long

How long until TTC: 12 months

Reasons for WTT: Mostly waiting on him... I would have a baby right this minute!! His reasoning for waiting, a) he's just not QUITE there, and b) he wants to buy us a house to put babies in... I'm ok with those reasons.

Yep! Going to Australia for a month, and paying that trip off completely. I would also like to be engaged to be honest, he knows that

How many children would you like: I would say two. If I had two boys I think I would like to try for a girl.

Do you have a gender preference?: Totally would love a little girl, but I would be ecstatic regardless.

Finding out the gender or team yellow?: Never will I find out, why wreck the most amazing surprise of your life?

Any names you like?: I have quite a few...I keep a list every time I hear of a cool name.

[Nikko88]

Name: Michelle
Age:38
Relationship status: Married

How long until TTC: 4 Months (April 2016)

Reasons for WTT: I'm waiting the recommended 18 months between pregnancy. But neither my husband and I are getting any younger so we probably won't wait beyond that to start trying. I also would like to love the baby weight I gained back after pump weaning. It would be great to minimize the daycare overlap as well. And I think I'm also terrified on the first year again.

Anything you want to accomplish while in WTT, before TTC: Lose the rest of teh baby weight and pump weaning weight. Get back into better physical shape (cardio and strength took a nose dive).

How many children would you like:2

when pg...

Do you have a gender preference? I'd love a little boy even though having another daughter has numerous advantages.

Finding out the gender or team yellow? I don't think I have the patience to be team yellow. Plus knowing I was having a girl the first time really helped me to connect to the pregnancy early on.

[MItoDC]

Age: 31
Relationship status: Married. Hubby is 43

How long until TTC: Undecided. I can't believe I'm already thinking so much about this with a 7 month old!
Reasons for WTT: So many reasons. I'd like DD to be a little older and I'd be nervous to have two under 2. I'm also really worried about the daycare situation. We could afford two in daycare, but getting them into the same daycare would be REALLY hard because of waiting lists in our area - they're ridiculous! I'd also like DH to have a job (he's finishing up his PhD in Dec 2016) - but am not sure whether we should wait until he has a job or if we should just hope for the best and try to aim to have baby #2 around that time.
Anything you want to accomplish while in WTT, before TTC: I'd love to loose the baby weight from DD!
How many children would you like: 2 or 3

when pg...

Do you have a gender preference? No - there are benefits to both!

Anything you want to accomplish while in WTT, before TTC: We have two house rabbits who currently hate each other - I'd like to get them liking each other again. Also, more reliably litter trained!
How many children would you like: We're not sure! I always used to think 4 to 6, but now that we're getting closer, I'm thinking probably two! I don't want just one.

when pg...

Do you have a gender preference? In the end, I think I'd like one of each, but I'm sure we'd love whoever!
Finding out the gender or team yellow? For number two onwards we'd definitely find out, but not sure about the first one.
Any names you like? So many! Josephine Matilda (Josie) is my top pick for a daughter, and I like Edmund or Noah for a boy.
