Not ready to join a POAS board yet but excited to be NTNP again!
Baby #:
Excited for:
Nervous about:
-
Baby #: 2. DS (1-1/2) was conceived after 3 months of NTNP
Excited for: Feeling those movements and hiccups again. DS to be a big brother. Maybe a little girl in the house?
Nervous about: Exhaustion with a toddler in the house. Morning sickness this time around (lucked out with #1). The craziness of 2 little ones and 2 daycare bills.
-
Baby #: 2
Excited for: watching lo be a big sister
also I loved being pregnant, I loved my bumpNervous about: we had a chemical in Feb and it's made me dread poas so much...ttc again is really stressing me out!
-
@josina:
Best of luck!!
-
@josina: I don't even want to think about 2 daycare bills
I'm so excited for yooou!
-
I'll come play
Baby #: 3
Excited for: Hopefully completing our family.
Nervous about: It maybe taking longer this time to get pregnant (we are only casually NTNP right now). The chaos that will ensure when we have 3 under 4 in the house.
-
Baby #: 2
Excited for: Giving my son a sibling, seeing them play together, new experience for my husband and me having 2 children maybe a girl this time which might be different
Nervous about: Finding the balance with two, feeling guilty not giving my son all of my attention. I have a big job interview later this week and I'm nervous about starting a new job while ttc but hoping both could work out well
-
Since DS2 is somehow rapidly approaching a year old, I'll join!
Baby #: 3
Excited for: being pregnant again (hopefully it's more like my 1st pregnancy rather than my second). Also, hopefully completing our family!
Nervous about: mc (I had one between DS1 and DS2). The TTC process. Being pregnant with 2 at home already. The small age gap (with my age, we "have" to try sooner rather than later).
-
@FaithFertility: @snowjewelz: Thanks!
@nana87: Best of
!
@MOMTOLITTLEB: Good luck on the interview!
@ValentineMommy: Hoping #3 is as easy as #1! And hoping my #2 isn't like yours if it was bad!
-
Me!
Baby#2
Most excited for growing our family. We want 4 in total and I can't wait to give DD a sibling!
TTC. So frustrating. I was really hoping I would get pregnant with a surprise baby, but now DD is almost 1, and still no period or anything. I'm sure I will have to go the Clomid route again.
-
Ha! I forgot my BCPs on vacation last week and will be taking a pregnancy test this week. Does that count
-
@josina: so exciting! Good luck!!
-
@MrsBrewer: for a good comparison I didn't get my period back until the month after dd turned 1, after I stopped pumping. But then I got pregnant that month and am due in October... So you never know!
-
I guess we fall in that category now!
#3
Excited for: I'm not letting myself get at all excited. If we aren't lucky enough to conceive again, we are already beyond blessed and I'm trying to focus on that...BUT.... I just love newborns, so that
Nervous: another miscarriage, morning sickness, our current living situation.
-
Baby #1
Excited for: to hopefully finally be a mom
Nervous about: work. My job is pretty hectic and relentless (and male-dominated), I'm worried about how the whole balance thing is going to work out. Yesterday was a particularly rough day at work, and as I was falling asleep last night, I was thinking - I really don't think I can do this whole pregnancy/kid thing w/o work slipping to an extent that I essentially throw away everything I've invested in it for years.
DH is also looking to switch jobs now, so his schedule and whether he'll have any leave (and even where he'll be located) is up in the air. And I could go on about things I'm nervous about, but will resist the temptation... trying to focus on the excited part!
-
Baby #: 3
Excited for: Newborn cuddles, both of my boys being big brothers
Nervous about: Having another miscarriage. I had one in April
-
@youboots: Whoops! Is this exciting or terrifying, or both?
@Miss Ariel: Thanks!
@travelgirl1: Awww, sending lots of luck your way!
@hb3233: Being a mom is amazing, hope everything works out with work when it happens!
@lilyann: Sorry about the m/c and hope it's easy from here out!
-
@josina: Thank you! And good luck!!!
-
@Miss Ariel: Aww good to know!!! I hope that's the case for me! I never would get my period on my own before though, even when TTC. I'm just hoping that my pregnancy and everything like reset my hormones!
-
Baby #: 1
Excited for: My husband's and my DNA to get scrambled! I love and admire him so much and I cant wait to watch him be a dad. Also excited to experience the mother child bond for the first time, my mom died when I was a baby so I never knew her.
Nervous about: AF maybe coming tomorrow, CM, miscarriage, complications, infertility...
-
I guess I'll dip my toes in!
Baby #: 2
Excited for: Expaning our family, and giving LO a sibling.
Most nervous about: Pregnancy. I had hyperemseis with my first, and spent most of the pregnancy on bedrest. Two kids also makes me nervous!
-
@youboots: lol I'm in a similar boat!
Probably gonna NTNP starting in a month or so!
-
Just started NTNP this month! Baby #2. Baby 1 took 9 months so a bit nervous that it could happen quickly or that it could take even longer
-
I'm out. Multiple negative tests. I will be good about BCP intil we get back from a trip to Mexico in the spring. Then actively TTC. I'd love a 3 year age gap. DD was born March 2015. We will see.
-
Good luck to those just getting started! Hope you'll all have your BFPs soon
@youboots: glad you can stay with your timeline.
We were blessed enough to conceive on the first month we ditched bc, so if all goes well we'll be a family of five in February 2017.
-
Baby #: 2
Excited for: Feeling baby moving; newborn smells and snuggles; seeing LO being a big brother.
Nervous about: Food aversions (first pregnancy was so awful until 5 months), nausea, tiredness with an active toddler.
I just got my period back last month at 14 months pp, and wouldn't you know it, I'm on a business trip during my fertile period. It was only a matter of a few days, but unless DH has super sperm, there's no change of pregnancy this month.
Where is the emoticon for super sperm when you need it!?! -
I'm excited to be a mom and care for a little one. I can't wait!
I'm not excited for disrupted sleep.
We've been trying for awhile, since we got married last year. I was found to have low thyroid, so with my new meds on board for 5 weeks now, I am hopeful that has made the difference we need!
-
I'll join in.
Baby #2
Excited for DS to be a big brother.
Nervous about getting another bad sleeper.
I stopped taking birth control about three months ago now, so I'm hoping by the end of the year but we aren't actively trying like we did with DS.
-
Crap, this thread is giving me baby rabies!
-
Newbie, I've been a reader/stalker!
Trying for baby #1
Excited for: being a mom and watching my husband be a daddy!
Nervous for: unknown how long it'll take to get pregnant and how I'll handle being pregnant with my anxiety.
-
@mrsmacSLP: welcome to HB! Good luck with TTC and FX your anxiety won't flare up.
-
@ALV91711: exciting!!
-
@Smurfette: exciting & scary! For some reason I'm much more nervous this time. I think it could partly be because I know exactly what we are getting into. But I look forward to more baby snuggles.
-
@ALV91711: I was the same! And still am. The 1st trimester with a toddler is no joke.
-
@ALV91711: @Smurfette: ha, I hear you guys. It was a crazy feeling starting out. The exhaustion is kicking my butt badly...
-
Baby #: 2
Excited for: another pregnancy and birth (I promise I'm not a crazy person). It just gave me such an awe and appreciation for my body.
Nervous about: Conceiving; it's been easy in the past, but my cycle hasn't returned yet at 16 months PP. I'm getting acupuncture to try to get my cycle going again. Exhaustion while managing a toddler, afraid I will miss fun things with my toddler, and the unrelenting nausea of last time.
-
Hey ya'll! Just wanted to check in! How's everyone doing? Anyone preggers?
-
@HB3233
@Bizwitch
@Mrmacslp
Hey other first-timers! My husband and I will start TTC #1 in October - excited to see some other newbies. I tried to start a fall 2016 first-time TTC thread but so far crickets. Hope to hear more from you guys along your journey! And hopefully I'll join you all soon! -
@schubr03: Meeeee!
-
@ValentineMommy: CONGRATS!!!!
happy and heathy 9 months to you!
also I loved being pregnant, I loved my bump
!
DH is also looking to switch jobs now, so his schedule and whether he'll have any leave (and even where he'll be located) is up in the air. And I could go on about things I'm nervous about, but will resist the temptation... trying to focus on the excited part!
