M will be 1 in May, and I know I don't have any more plans on taking out my IUD in 2016. DH has always said around her 2 year birthday, so May 2017. I actually think that may be a good time. It gives me a good amount of one on one time with M, allows me to build back up my leave for maternity, and some time post-nursing to just have my body back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/3#post-2362278 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 22:13:25 +0000 Smurfette 2362278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lovehoneybee: that is what I like to hear! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/3#post-2362275 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 22:11:33 +0000 birdofafeather 2362275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: the season works out best for me and work. That means 1 and 2 are 2y10m apart and 2 and 3 would ideally be 2y2m+ apart. I don't know that if I want to wait another year even though I'm loving this approximate 3 year age gap currently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/3#post-2362203 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 21:28:56 +0000 MrsSRS 2362203@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well we are two and through, so no more babies. But if we did want a third because finances and other circumstances shifted it probably wouldn't be until my IUD comes out in 5 years. But that puts us in our thirties and our (just for us seriously I don't care how old anyone else is!!) personal preference was to be done with pregnancies by 30. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/3#post-2362195 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 21:25:21 +0000 lovehoneybee 2362195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: I actually ovulated the day I got mine taken out, and my OB said it was totally possible to get pregnant immediately! I had a normal period 2 weeks later, and got pregnant the first full cycle we tried! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/3#post-2362171 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 21:14:00 +0000 Mrs. J 2362171@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lilteacherbee: we have to do it together again!!! :heart: </p> <p>DS2 is 3.5 months. We will probably try somewhere summer 2016 to beginning of 2017. After 3 we are done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/3#post-2362156 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 20:57:20 +0000 knittylady 2362156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsRcCar: dude that's how I got pregnant with DS2 at 6 months postpartum! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2362133 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 20:40:57 +0000 pastemoo 2362133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe 5 years </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2362129 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 20:37:03 +0000 LilSprinkles 2362129@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably not until 2017. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2362080 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 19:59:57 +0000 Mrs. Detour 2362080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're trying, but since I still don't have my period back after having DS1 in January (we're still BFing and he quit STTN about 6 weeks ago, sigh), it's mostly wishful thinking. I never imagined that I would be wishing for my period to start back up again. At my OB's suggestion, I even tried not nursing or pumping for 24 hours and even that was not enough to get things going again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2362054 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 19:34:26 +0000 loveisstrange 2362054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>IF (and thats a big if) we decide to, it wont be for another 3-4 years. C will fully be in elementary school. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2362052 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 19:31:30 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2362052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: any reason why you want that gap? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361960 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 17:51:07 +0000 wheres_c 2361960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is about to turn 3 and we are TTC #2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361956 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 17:42:27 +0000 Eko 2361956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If the timing works out well, we won't start ttc for about another year. We have some other goals we would really like to hit first. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361952 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 17:35:50 +0000 Mrs. Peanut 2361952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm pregnant with LO1 right now, but I'd say we will start trying for #2 about a year and a half to two years after LO1 is born. I talked to DH about it and he said, "let's just see how THIS one goes!!" :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361889 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 16:36:59 +0000 MrsB2012 2361889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are trying for #3 right now :) That will be 3 babies in 3 years haha. After that, I think we will be done, but I don't think we will take any permanent measures right away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361865 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 16:09:55 +0000 sera_87 2361865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wel ds3 is a week old so not anytime soon :p and I need to finish at least my undergrad first, and I want a Jan/February/March baby, so not until spring 2018. *pout* seems so far away! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361833 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 15:48:15 +0000 daniellemybelle 2361833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are waiting to TTC until summer 2016. LO is 2 now. Sometimes my baby fever wants to start sooner ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361777 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 15:10:19 +0000 MrsKoala 2361777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: Yep, back to the summer of 2016. DH got freaked out about money with potentially two kids after the MC so asked if we could push it back. I understand his concerns so we wait. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361762 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 15:00:57 +0000 KT326 2361762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have an appointment with the RE tomorrow! I'm hoping to start our first cycle in December or January. But it might get pushed back depending on if we need to repeat tests since its been almost 5 years. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361714 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 14:41:07 +0000 birdofafeather 2361714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>well, DD2 is only 3 weeks old, but ideally, i'd like the next one to be born 5 years apart from DD1. so that puts us at TTC in spring 2017. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361615 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 13:39:54 +0000 psw27 2361615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We will probably start TTC in late April or shortly thereafter. Eek! That puts LOs about 2 1/2 years apart if things happen quickly, which would be perfect. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361609 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 13:35:44 +0000 buttermilk 2361609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure - we want them 2-3 years apart but this one took over a year to conceive naturally. She is only 3 months now so we have plenty of time to decide when to start ttc! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361506 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 12:45:18 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2361506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>IF we decide to have another (we're waiting and trying to decide at this point), we would likely start TTC at the end of summer 2016. Not sure yet, though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361504 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 12:44:45 +0000 LovelyPlum 2361504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKoala: :heart: I'm so sorry this time didn't work out. You guys decided to push it back again? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361471 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 12:26:15 +0000 jape14 2361471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is 14 months now, and we will start TTC sometime next summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361465 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 12:22:38 +0000 MrsKoala 2361465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We'll try again next summer maybe. I hope. Waiting has not been easy, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361454 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 12:12:08 +0000 Mrs. Microscope 2361454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About this time next year! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361436 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 12:04:27 +0000 LindsayLou 2361436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've talked about aiming for about 2 to 2.5 years apart. I think we'll start seriously discussing it next summer, just before our LO turns one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-plan-on-having-more-kids/page/2#post-2361421 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 11:56:07 +0000 mamabolt 2361421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If we decide to go for a third we won't start trying until DS is at least 2, so not for 2.5 more years. But we want to see what life with 2 is like first! </p>
