WTT for #1 - trying in Sept/Oct/Nov/Dec 2012

[jess_1984]

We might be ttc from December now! OH said today that we can. I am not 100% convinced he won't change his mind do trying not to get too excited but might only have 6 months to go!!!!

 

[mummybuns]

I'm in the same boat as you Jess....sort of cautious excitement and a bit of disbelief that I really will have the green light in Dec!! OH said yes but feeling that I am the one keen to try rather than him ...

 

[brenn09]

Teacup!! How's your week and your waiting going?!? It has been busy over here but seems like the wait is stretching out again!! Ahhhh it changes every day- sometimes I get so nervous thinking about how soon it is and other times so impatient because it seems so far away!

Hi!

About me: I'm 20 - ill be 21 when we TTC. OH the same. We have been together for 5 years.

We are going to start trying after our holiday to Orlando Florida. This year I will have been on two holidays an all inclusive holiday will lots of free drinks. Then a once in a lifetime holiday to Disney world. Then we have gotten everything out the way we want to do in regards to a baby free life.

I feel really excited to be TTC this october! I feel that I am ready I have wanted this for too long now. I've always wanted children, more so since I was about 16! Temptation resisted till now. I feel that we are both in a good place to be TTC. Stable home, stable job, abit of money aside, been on the holidays we wanted to do, we arn't ones to go out drinking only the odd night out for a meal somewhere once and a while, we are both mature in mind. We have been together for 5 year and getting engaged this July - which I cant wait for. Haha.

All ready and waiting to TTC!

Fingers crossed, but hoping to in November. If I had my way, we'd be trying right now, but there's a few things we need to get out of the way first. My biggest challenge is paying off my credit card before then. Definitely achievable and I'm determined, lol. That was our deal - me pay off my credit card, OH to lose some weight
I'm 27 and he's soon to be 31 and we've been together over three years and although I've been wanting to try for more than a year now, OH has finally come to terms with the idea and is becoming more and more happy to start trying soon.
Good luck to everyone out there, first timers and all others.
I'm so clucky at the moment, I just can't wait to start trying, lol.

Hi Brenn09! My week is going okay thanks, been a bit lazy though - really need to get on and do work! The sooner I finish my project, the sooner we can TTC. I have been feeling very broody recently, my OH and I were chatting about baby names last night and it didn't help! Really want our own little bundle now. I know what you mean about switching between being impatient and being nervous of how close it is! I feel that way too, I probably will freak out and put the date back when November comes along, it's such a big journey starting a family - I'm a little scared but also super excited! We can all support each other with taking the leap into motherhood!

Have you got much left to sort out before TTC? Or is it mainly a waiting game now? xx

 

[counting]

You can change my date to December

Actually, it isn't the end of the world, I know, and it also means we should have student loan paid off and much more savings ready before baby would be born. Which is good. I still get to go off BC in September/October, which will give me 3 months to have it cleared out of my system. With the previous plan I would have been stopping BC and TTC the same month, so less chance of success. The date isn't set in stone, but I do see a lot of other WTTers for December, so it's nice to know I should have some support along the way!

I just re-read the title and realized it's for #1! Oh well, I don't think you guys will be offended! I think that each pregnancy is different and I will probably have a ton of questions when it will happen! I hope you guys can let me stay in your little group!

You are very welcome, I just wrote #1 to narrow it down a little, I think a few ladies who already have children have joined this forum too. I'm sure you will have some advice that will help us all out! We can all support each other in TTC whether it's a first time or not! xxx

 

[akilgore2012]

My FI just texted me saying he can't wait to have a baby. He said "I'm probably going to burst into tears the first time I hold my child" I would be lying if I said it didn't make me tear up. He's going to make me crack if he keeps getting all sentimental on me, but I REALLY don't want to be feeling like junk and in my first trimester on my wedding day in September!! Poor guy....

 

[misslozmcw]

Hellooo Everyone! I'm waiting to try for my first in September 2012 after my wedding. Is anyone else trying for their first around this time and would like to be my buddy? Trying for a baby for the first time is such a big scary thing! I hope I feel ready when the time comes. I'm very broody but also a little scared. What is everyone elses thoughts about starting a family? Any positives/negatives you want to discuss?

About me: I'm 25 and my OH is 35 and we've been in a relationship for over 3 years.

Hi! I'm going to be trying for my first in September 2012 too! It was originally supposed to be this month, but due to some complications it has been postponed till September!

I know exactly how you feel about being broody and a little scared! I want nothing more than to have a baby but the thought is sometimes scary too! I worry about how my body will cope with it, are we really going to be ready when it happens, how will be cope if something happens to our jobs...the list is endless!

I really can't wait to start trying though!

 

[brenn09]

At this point, it's really a waiting game but we do need to be building up our savings account for maternity leave and unexpected bills plus tucking away for baby splurges. I won't start rx prenatals until August, so there is that step to look forward to since my ob/gyn insists I take them! We are still looking to move into larger rental in case our house buying quest next spring falls through or doesn't happen as quickly as my birth so that we're bringing baby home to a larger/safer/nicer home. I just feel like we're really just killing time until we can start! I wish there was a way to move up my graduation date but it's stuck at May 2013.

It's been a pretty broody week or few days for me, too. I just keep picturing our little bundle and I realized I don't want to even be pregnant, I just want to bring our baby home!! I'm tired of waiting and seeing our niece and nephew lately has made it all the more real- they're almost 2 and almost 5 so such fun ages where they're learning so much every day and it makes my heart hurt to think it'll be years before seeing our own children enter these stages. I want it now. I can't wait until we start trying together, hopefully I won't lose my head too much after all the waiting- it'll be so exciting and scary all at once! I know you ladies will hold me together, lol!!

Hope everyone is having a great week!!

 

[Jary]

Anybody else starting to feel a bit scared? For the first time I'm actually scared about having a baby lol. I suppose it comes with the territory since its almost a reality. I've had a long chat with my partner tho and he's helped ease my worries. I know we could be in a better position but that would take quite a while and I do want to be a fairly young mum. My friend has just given birth last night so I guess this has got me thinking babies all over again!
I know what you mean Brenn09 I'm excited about when they start getting older and you start to see who they are turning out like and what interests them. I'd love to sit down and draw pictures with my little one. Simple but I always remember how much I loved it as a kid! Also kids have such imaginations. My cousin miles is 4 and he tells the most wild stories about fairies and adventures he's been on (but hasnt actually been on them) I hope that's not a bad thing lol but it is sweet.

 

[Sugaree5335]

We'll be trying in September. At least we will be if we can wait that long. I was supposed to have my insurance take effect this week, but it seems the payroll office has screwed that up. It seems that I'll be dealing with them first thing this morning.

My BFF just had a baby girl a week ago and another friend had her little girl 6 weeks ago and SO's BFF's wife is currently pregnant. SO has baby fever as bad as I do, so it's gonna be a tough wait.

Awww! Yeah my OH was chatting about babies the other day, makes me even broodier! He's even nick-named our unborn child. Def wait until after the wedding, some girls get terrible morning sickness/acne/tiredness etc! Have a honeymoon baby! Hows planning going for your wedding? Much left to sort? September is so close now! xx

Welcome Misslozmcw! Hi Jary! Aww yeah I'm still a little nervous about starting a family - it changes your life completely. Must be so rewarding though and so much fun (also stressful at times!) I can't wait for my OH and I to have our own little bundle. Only a few more months before TTC! Any thing you need to sort before September?

Wow you sound really organised Brenn09! Yeah I have had a REALLY broody week. I don't know if it's the time of year or spending the day with my new little baby niece, but I can't wait to start TTC! I have been trying to organise my hen party recently, and ALL my friends/family who are invited are either expecting babies, or have babies! Gonna be a lot of baby talk and me putting on a brave face (or getting drunk in the corner!)

We'll be trying in September. At least we will be if we can wait that long. I was supposed to have my insurance take effect this week, but it seems the payroll office has screwed that up. It seems that I'll be dealing with them first thing this morning.

Welcome Sugaree5335! I have added you to the list. Lots and lots of girlies trying in September!

[brittani]

Well its been a while since I last posted. Still arent sure if my husband is going to have surgery or not . However I am pretty sure we are going to be starting to try in August now, I think I have him talked into it! Hehe!
I am getting nervous too, so many things going on in my mind (can I even have kids, am I going to be a good mom, him a good dad, can we afford this...ahh just so much stuff)
I am going to my OBGYN soon and am nervous to talk to him about it even, I'm scared of the unknown! I like to be in control lol.
So how is everyone doing-It's getting so close now, I cant believe it!!!!

 

[Chloezilla]

Jary, I'm a little scared! Financially we could be in a better place and thats the main thing I worry about. We need to move into a bigger house aswell, we only have 1 bedroom atm which isnt ideal!!

Trying not to let on to hubby how I feel though, dont wanna plant any seeds of doubt. I dont wanna delay anything. At the end of the day the main thing you gotta think is "it takes 9 months to grow a baby" and we can all probably acheive alot in that time if we had to!

 

[Chloezilla]

And yes - its insanely soon. I even bought my first folic acid tabs today!! Eeee...!

 

[Jary]

Yeah we are looking at properties to rent and hopefully we'll have a place soon. I can't wait so we can start getting settled in and start to think about stuff we will need for baby and also so we can save a bit more.

Finance is what scares my partner more than anything. But the good thing about being with the NHS is that the trust mat pay is pretty ok. Not amazing but still helpful, so I guess we are in a comfortable situation. I know we'll have to watch our money closely but I'm sure we will manage.

I think come September I'll be more settled and more sure about starting a family. It is exciting as it is scary tho! 3 months!
