light hearted ttc

Omg Patrice that's amazing news congratulations! How's everything want all the goss please:kiss: so exciting! I'm so glad it happened for you in the end. Sorry to hear of your divorce tho but glad your happy. X
 
Everything is going good. Today i am officially 6 weeks so another milestone checked. I get on and off nauseous but i have been able to hold more food down lately. I have that lovely natural bloat but nothing serious as of yet. I get my ultrasound at the docs at 9 weeks so thats exciting. Hoping all goes well. But im very happy in my new relationship and he is extremely happy and more excited than i am :haha:
 
Claire, my af left two days ago... so I'm just putting it down to something weird!!

YAAYYY Patrice!! I hope you upload a lot of ultrasound photos and pregnancy ones! I'm happy for you that you're finally pregnant!! :D


Jo, how frustrating for you!!
 
Patrice - I am beyond excited for you!! It must be even more exciting with twins!
 
Thanks ladies. Im super happy. I cant wait to post pics up for you ladies. Time is flying pretty fast in my pregnancy already. And im like whoa slow dpwn. Let me get to enjoy this.
 
cant wait to see the scan pics patrice!
So im bleeding again. Its pretty heavy but not really like my normal period. Not much cramping like i thought there would be. I guess i will see if my symptoms dissapear after. Will keep my scan appointment tho i think when it comes through just incase. It really has been a horrid emotional couple of months. The oh isnt much help hes just glad of anything to suggest im not pregnant! Think i have a cold now to top it all off :(
 
Jo I hope you feel yourself again afterwards!!:hugs:

Well I think I'm in the ttw as I've had horrible cramps and Ewcm so will see! :thumbup:
 
Awww Jo I'm sorry!! How upsetting this must be... sucks that your oh wouldn't be supportive if you accidentally got pregnant. :nope:
But I know my DH would be mad if I ended up being pregnant anytime soon as well, he keeps threatening to go get snipped, so I keep telling him there is such a thing as sperm banks :haha:


Patrice.. you should get a little ticker that says how far along you are!! Ahh I miss being pregnant :haha: well I think its more the excitement of it all.


AFM... nothing else new.. trying to figure out how to keep my 3 yr old busy.. gah how is she 3?!
 
My sister is 15 weeks pregnant with her 6th kid. Not feeling too miserable though. Kinda enjoying this extended break time.
 
jo how you feeling?

Patrice hows it going? whens your due date?

im in the tww but if it doesn't happen this month then were gonna stop and il go back on bcp. we agreed we would leave it upto fate this month and if it didn't happen then it wasn't meant to be.:cry:

aww claire. Are you content with having 5 though or do you feel like there is a gap in your family that needs to be filled by another child? Husband only wants 3, but deep down in my heart I want 4. It may change depending on how my pregnancy goes with the third and post partum and how we adjust financially with a third, but atm I am still picturing 4 and get upset when dh says only 3. Actually, I am unsure of what I want. I want 4 but when I see families with 4 kids I am like "hmm, do I really want that, looks like too many kids for me" and I actually feel flutters when I see families with 3 kids and say "hey that looks nice." If I have contradicting feelings, I dont know how I came up with 4 in the first place. I guess I am just a bit sad to think that after the 3rd I will close my factor and will never get to hold a baby again.

I have no more desires beyond the 4th child so I know I will be content with 4 and feel like our family will be complete.

If you really want another baby, the chances are pretty slim with only one month of ttc. We also tried ntnp for the past 2 months ago and dtd around my fertile window and nothing.
 
That's the thing im still unsure, I came off the pill and then started having second thoughts so we decided if it didn't happen this month then it wasn't meant to be! But I'd never say never!!
 
I always said I wanted 4 too, I think cause growing up I always wanted more siblings.

But then I don't know if the desire to have more kids ever really goes away? Like I always long to be pregnant after my baby turns a year or comes close :haha: But I know financially that would be really bad for us for me to get pregnant, still paying off the first two births and from my past surgery. :wacko:
 
Personally for me, its the feeling of how I "miss" being pregnant. If I look at the big picture of when they become older (preteens or something), I like the image of 3 kids, but I guess the reason I want 4 is because I cant give up not being pregnant anymore after the 3rd. SOunds crazy doesnt it? But us ladies have to stop somewhere and we have to fight with our hormones. I also get baby fever whenever my kids turn 1, but if I were to get this "baby fever" every time, and cave into it, I could easily end up with 20 kids.
 
I no what you mean I always miss being pregnant but I love having a big family! don't get me wrong they do my head in sometimes but I wouldn't change it and its gonna be lovely when their older! but we will see what happens in the next few weeks!!

lol that works out well for you since you want a big family anyways. For me, its just so complicated...I miss being pregnant but I only want 3 kids. I almost feel sad to think that the 4th child is only so I can experience pregnancy all over again. We'll see, after the third if I still feel like I want the 4th because our family is incomplete, and not for selfish personal reasons because if its the latter, its totally cruel and mean to the 4th.
 
I don't think its cruel or mean as you will never regret having a baby but you can always regret not having a baby. life is too short.
 
idk...im stuck between 3 and 4 atm. I have friends who felt two is enough for them and never talked about making babies again after their second was born. I wish I knew what I REALLY wanted.

We can afford up to 4, but finances will be tighter than if we decided to stop at 3, thats why I dont want to conceive baby no. 4 if I am still uncertain if thats what I want.
 
I thought we had stopped at no4 but then 3 years later really wanted another and along came joanie and im so glad we did!! x
