Hellobee Boards

@LovelyPlum: @gilmoregirl: yeah! I hope we're due date twins (triplets?) again this time around

We will be TTC our second child and January will be our second cycle. Our DS is only 9mo, but I'd rather have the "chaos" all at once rather than get too comfortable before completely forgetting how childbirth was for me. The first two weeks PP were difficult, but I want to try again while that's fresh in my memory. Plus, I'd like for our children to be close in age. I'm 6 years younger than my brothers who were born 14mk apart and it felt lonely at times.

@Winterbee15: DH is on board mainly because he's on board to BD lol. Since having DS, I haven't really been open to DTD because of being tired. Starting over may leave me exhausted, but at least my husband will be here for the newborn stage unlike without first... He agreed to an out-of-state job when I was 8mo pregnant and finally returned when DS turned 8mo old. He rarely visited, but once he realized how many milestones he was missing, he told his manager he needed to come back.

Now we're back and comfortable in our two bed/two bath condo and DH's only issue with baby #2 is space. It's not that uncommon for siblings to share a room at a young age, plus DS slept in the living room until 6mo so we could do the same with the next. We are not in a financial position to move, but it's a great time to have a baby with my HSA savings and awesome insurance through the hospital I work for.

Sorry to make this lengthy! A lot of women our age that we know are announcing pregnancies as well. I've made friends with children DS' age, but it'd be nice to have existing family/friends with babies also.

@combatlibby: oh gosh that is ROUGH! I'm glad he's back though. We would really need a larger house to make it work and aren't really wanting to move until we can save to buy what we really want so, that's also a big factor for us!! I feel like I wouldn't need to buy much except diapers, formula and clothes (if it were a girl)!

No!! We are done. It will be nice to not think about TTC anymore!

Nope! Having #2 in June 2016 should keep us pretty busy

Thinking about it! But not till the very end of the year if we do, since getting pregnant before LO is 18mo would increase the risk of preterm labor again.

No! our youngest will turn 2 in Feb, and DH is snipped. Looking forward to no diaper bag status!

@Winterbee15: We were team green for #1 and got a fair amount of newborn up to 6 months in neutrals. I know that isn't the case for everyone looking for neutrals, but we hit the jackpot and therefore would do team green again with our next pregnancy.

We want to be done having kids by the time I'm 35, which will happen in 2017. So we're probably gonna try for our second in 2016.

Unless this year really punches us in the face, we plan to TTC #1 in the second half of the year. I am running a relay race in May, and we're buying a house this summer. With the physical and emotional stress of both of those, I don't think my body would cooperate any sooner.

I really hope not, currently 10w with #2.

Nope! But I will be getting into shape and losing a few pounds so that when we are ready likely 2017, my body is too.

Nope, we're done at two! Mirena is in and DH will go for a vasectomy before the end of those five years!

Probably fall? We think we want a third!

I hope so! DD is almost 8 months so I'm thinking we'll be ready this summer at some point! I think dh would be ready sooner, but I'm hesitant after my csection!

I hope so. Otherwise we may not get a LO2 given my AMA.

No way. We're 99% done at 2. I wouldn't even consider a third until K is in school and M is like 3.
