We also have good reasons to wait but sometimes that doesn't stop me from wanting to start sooner. Good luck!</p> <p>@artbee: I'm glad I'm not the only terrified one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-70331 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 13:18:37 +0000 heffalump 70331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yay! </p> <p>I was also terrified... but the excitment beat the scared so we went for it anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69961 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 22:39:14 +0000 Mrs Rivera 69961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs H best of luck! </p> <p>We have decided to start ttc around that time too. We have good reasons to start in a couple of months but now that we have decided to start ttc I kind of want to start now! It's exciting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69639 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 20:55:59 +0000 MrsH 69639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Great minds think alike?<br /> @mrskc: So sorry :( I've been obsessing for a year for other reasons. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69623 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 20:51:07 +0000 mrskc 69623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: yeah. You don't have much control. But for me I had a MC so I think that has fueled my obsessiveness. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69622 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 20:50:20 +0000 chopsuey 69622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yayayaya!!

It's just that right now I'm obsessed/researching getting pregnant. I can only worry about one thing at a time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69576 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 20:37:21 +0000 MrsH 69576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: Thanks.

And congrats on the TTCing. It's an exciting time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69547 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 20:28:02 +0000 MrsH 69547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: Thanks I appreciate it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69546 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 20:26:45 +0000 banana 69546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsh: The "What to Expect" books were a good starting point for me. From then on, I branched into more theoretical/research-oriented books. I'll have to look at my bookshelf tonight when I get home and recommend some to you on your wall! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69541 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 20:25:25 +0000 MrsH 69541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: You sound just like me :) have a general reference guide you liked?<br /> @mrsjyw: Awww thanks<br /> @MaisyMay: SQUEEEE- I know, I'm sooo excited!<br /> @mrskc: You are way more relaxed than I am. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69413 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:53:18 +0000 MaisyMay 69413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>EEEEEEEEEEEEEeee how exciting! There is absolutely nothing wrong with being nervous about it, </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69393 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:48:49 +0000 mrsjyw 69393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>HUGS :) yayyyy it's exciting and nerve wracking all at the same time!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69390 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:48:08 +0000 mrskc 69390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: Not much really. HB has been a huge source of info. I figure I got 9 months to research once I'm pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69367 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:41:26 +0000 banana 69367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was totally nervous and scared too. I felt like I didn't know the first thing about babies and taking care of one just FREAKED me out. So I did what I always do when I'm unsure of something. I read and researched like crazy! I always feel better after I'm better informed. If you like nerdy things, then I would def recommend going to your local bookstore and perusing through the parenting section. You'll see tons of books with different opinons/viewpoints that are very interesting to read. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69324 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:30:23 +0000 MrsH 69324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: Any goood books to recommend? I'm kind of nerdy and into research so bring it on.</p> <p>@mrskc: Good luck on TTC. We have so much going on (I'm sure we aren't the only ones but we both work full time and are both going to grad school, etc) and I know a baby will change our life drastically so I'm just freaking out a little I think. What are you doing to get ready? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69307 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:25:48 +0000 mrskc 69307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: I think it's perfectly normal to be scared. It's going to change your life forever and that's nerving. I'm TTC and feel scared at times. I doubt myself whether we're making the right decision to try right now. I've never changed a diaper! You're definitely not alone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69306 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:25:48 +0000 Rubies 69306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: Absolutely normal. Before I had my LO, I had NEVER changed a diaper in my life. I just did a lot of reading, researching, and talking to people and just did what I could do to gain as much knowledge as possible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69294 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:21:19 +0000 MrsH 69294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: Thanks for the holding. I 'm sure I'll be fine - Anxious is probably a good descripter. I'm scared about numerous things starting with how something the size of a watermelon is going to fit out something the size of a lime, the fact that I have not lost those extra 30 pounds and doubt I will before then, that we are going to try and get KUed and I have only ever changed one diaper and know nothing about babies. The last one is downright terrifying. Why oh why didn't I ever get into babysitting?!?! </p> <p>Is this normal? I mean I'm not going to have a panic attack but it is starting to freak me out a little and I don't even have all those pregnancy hormones to blame all this on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69274 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:08:36 +0000 Rubies 69274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>*holding you*<br /> Are you okay? What are you scared about? Just anxious/nervous? It is quite overwhelming the second you and your SO decide to start a family! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-think-we-decided-to-start-ttc#post-69273 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:07:38 +0000 MrsH 69273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>in May...I'm scared. Somone hold me. That is less than 90 days away. </p>
