1. Save money for maternity leave.
Although I'm sure one that's done OH will have another reason to wait
Don't they always........

My husband always wanted kids and it took me awhile to come around, so luckily he's not the impediment. Although as it gets closer I can start to see the deer-in-headlights looks in his eyes.
We have to wait a few months because we both just started new jobs last month and we have to wait 12 months for maternity leave benefits to kick in. Plus that means we'll have been married for six months, which seems like a good cushion - I think my husband would be more comfortable with a year of marriage first, to settle into it more, but frankly he's just excited that I'm finally excited!
I've been adding things to my list to keep myself occupied - I want to run a half-marathon before we TTC, as a nice fitness accomplishment to feel good about what my body can achieve!
