I hope so too, or at least in range that's easier for me to accept! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-finally-did-it-sort-of#post-1024481 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 14:47:06 +0000 Cherrybee 1024481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Excellent!! I hope he gives you the answer you want! I was so scared to talk to my DH about babies but when I did I found out he was ready to start TTC straight away! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-finally-did-it-sort-of#post-1024232 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 13:33:28 +0000 Dandelion 1024232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whoo hoo! I hope the official talk goes well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-finally-did-it-sort-of#post-1024229 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 13:32:12 +0000 HellOnHeels 1024229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: Definitely not a year-round issue. And even when it is busy, there's slow times in between. Of course, there'll be changes and adjustments to how we've learned to do things now, but that's the same as every other couple. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-finally-did-it-sort-of#post-1024213 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 13:26:47 +0000 LindsayInNY 1024213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@DiamondEyes: Understandable! You said "busy season" though which sounds like it's not a year round issue so that helps. Like, I know tax season is busiest February to April (personal) or August to September (corporate). So planning those months are harder but otherwise not so bad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-finally-did-it-sort-of#post-1024192 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 13:18:43 +0000 HellOnHeels 1024192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks, ladies!</p> <p>@LindsayInNY: I'd like to keep that on the DL, but lets just say there's no scheduled "work day". I'm actually happy that this does worry him because it shows that he wants to be involved and not let the whole parenting thing fall completely onto me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-finally-did-it-sort-of#post-1023906 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 11:55:42 +0000 LovelyPlum 1023906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yay!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-finally-did-it-sort-of#post-1023893 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 11:48:47 +0000 LindsayInNY 1023893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Out of curiosity, what line of work is he in? DH and I are both attorneys. It's tough, but I think you make time and find a way to make things work :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-finally-did-it-sort-of#post-1022911 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 23:55:11 +0000 tinyperson 1022911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Woo! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-finally-did-it-sort-of#post-1022880 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 23:20:21 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1022880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>SO exciting!! Hope the official talk next week goes well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-finally-did-it-sort-of#post-1022874 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 23:09:56 +0000 HellOnHeels 1022874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>...I told DH I'm ready to talk babies. If anyone is even remotely interested, I did write a post about how I was, pretty much, afraid to talk to DH about my baby fever and to set a timeline to TTC. I chalk it up to being afraid of what his response would be; that he's changed his mind about kids, or he's not even close to being ready, that sort of stuff.</p> <p>Anyway, DH has been super busy with work lately and I decided that I would just mention that I'm ready to talk about a timeline and I would give him time to think about it himself before we actually sit down and discuss. I figured this weekend would be perfect because I was leaving this afternoon to head to my hometown/parents 'til Monday. To make an already longer story than I wanted, shorter, I told him exactly that; I want to talk about setting a timeline (to which he pointed to my belly. I laughed) and am giving him the weekend to really think about this and we'll discuss when I get back. He agrees. *PHEW*</p> <p>He also mentioned that he has thought about kids and that his biggest worry is that he barely has time for me (during the busy season) so how can he add a baby to that as well? I told him we'll figure it out, just as both mine and his parents did (same profession) and it seemed like he agreed.</p> <p>And with that, hopefully we'll have an official timeline set next week... </p>
