Hey there ladies! I was originally thinking I would be in here until at the very least December but due to some unforeseen issues with my IUD (The Mirena) We have moved up our TTC date to Oct 4th! That is when I get my Mirena out and we decided to NTNP from there.
We just bought a house (our first) and are moving in at the beginning of November. Oh, and my hubby got a promotion at work. This has been an amazing time for us.
I love reading all of the stories on here even if I am not one to pipe up much. I think I get nervous to say the wrong thing sometimes.
Anyways.. There is a question in this long mess of a post :) Have any of you moved up your TTC date and all of a sudden felt ubber nervous? I know this is what I want and my husband wants but now I feel like what about Jaxson? How will he feel with a new baby coming?
 
I have constantly been pushing my date further and further back - but then we pushed it forward!

I have always been waiting for 'the right time' to have a baby. Here is Canada, you can take a year maternity leave and if you have worked 600 hours of insurable time at a job, you get 55% of your wage (up to a max of $42,000 I believe) through E.I. But most jobs require you work at least a year to have your job guaranteed after that year.

So after getting married, I finished my last semester at school and have been thinking about it but then I have been at 2 jobs since then and have been waiting to reach that 1 year point. Finally, I just got a final and permanent, well paying job 2 weeks ago. We were going to wait to try in January, but you know what? We have realized there is never the perfect time and we thought, screw it! It I haven't worked there for a year by the time a baby comes then I haven't. I am still eligible for the E.I payments for a year anyways. So we ended up moving our date up from January to as soon as possible. The only thing we are waiting for now is my pre-conception appointment at a high risk clinic (I have kidney disease and high blood pressure). We have been waiting over a month to get in and I am really losing my patience but we can't try until I switch medications, etc.. Frustrating because we finally decided we are ready and now we have to wait for reasons out of our control :/

I don't feel too nervous though! But this will be our first. I have wanted this for so long I am impatient and excited :)
 
I was originally January as I always said I wanted a year at my new job and to enjoy Christmas. Then I wanted to move it to TTC over Christmas, then I got even more broody and it's currently November. It does seem to be getting faster the closer I get. Scared but my head knows it is the right decision.
 
My husband works full time and I stay home :) so I am not really worried about money and such (well I am but not terribly) I am more nervous about having Jaxson nor react well to another baby coming into his "territory"... I suppose it is a normal fear for adding to a family, just want him to be just as excited as we are
 
I bet your little guy will be excited :)
