Me! I'm totally not ready for another baby (DD is nearly 21 months and is a real handful, another baby would be totally impossible and I might actually go insane!) but I really miss being pregnant, listening to the hb on the doppler, going to midwife appointments, feeling kicks, watching my bump grow, watching baby on scans, announcing the pregnancy to family and friends...I loved it all.
I had an awful labour (too big baby in the wrong position) and had an emcs so I want a do-over of labour and birth...I want the chance to dilate fully and push and FEEL my child come into the world. I want to be able to breastfeed, and now I know the signs of tongue tie and how breastfeeding actually is supposed to work, I actually have half a chance of managing it this time rather than forming an intimate relationship with a breast pump).
Alas, we're waiting til DD is at school or just about, so probably won't be TTC until August 2018

If we catch first try (unlikely at the age of 37, but we did with DD when we were 32), we'll have a spring 2019 baby, and DD starts school Sept 2019. At the very very earliest we'll start TTC August 2017, but I'd quite like to be off work for DD's reception year at school, so for many reasons it makes more sense to wait til 2018. But we'll see!
