Taking a break/waiting to try... thinking about trying when LO turns one in September, but I might chicken out.

We are currently TTC but I think DH would love to take a month off. I wouldn't mind it either

I'm waiting to TTC -- right now the plan is to start in June 2014, which will be our ten year anniversary together!

Still don't understand the difference between waiting to try and taking a break

@wheres_c: Well I'm "waiting to try" because I don't have kids yet, so it can't be considered "taking a break."
Maybe "taking a break" when you already have kids means you want another but aren't sure when, and "waiting to try" when you already have kids means you have a set timeline?

whatever happens, happens. but given it took 5 years and a lot of intervention to get pregnant before i doubt anything happens yet.

We are taking a LONG break. DH is a student and the pill is much cheaper than a second kid

35 weeks and 2 days with our first! I'm 34 so it probably won't be too terribly long before we barrel right on in to our second. I hope that works out because I like the idea of siblings.
On a sidenote, what is NTNT and NTNP? (I'm guessing the second is "not trying, not preventing"; however, I'm stumped as to the first one.)

@wheres_c: I'm waiting to try as opposed to a break since I've never had a kid or TTC yet. Therefore nothing to take a break from!

Waiting to try!! If I wasn't worried about hurting my milk supply we'd be trying right now!

Waiting another 3-4m to try again. LO would be 18-24m when #2 is born.

Either taking a break or done. Haven't decided yet. Our first/only LO is 3 months.

We are done with biological children. I might consider a foster to adopt with and older child later but I don't know if Mr. Train would be on board with that.

TTC with our first and not having any fun at all. My chart is confusing and frustrating.
