Got the Baby Bug?

[Erika]

Are you actively trying? or thinking of starting soon?

If so, add your name and details to the roll call :D

[Lori]

We're still up in the air here, but we'll probably start TTC in the next 6 months.

I want to lose 10 lbs. before we start. Sean is still iffy, so I told him is he really isn't ready, just buy me lots of ice cream. So, I'm either gonna get a baby or lots of ice cream, and right now I'm all good either way. ;)

[Erika]

mmmmmmm ice cream!!! I know which one I would be going for right now :lmao

Good luck with that Lori and enjoy the next few months :D

[Desirae]

:giggle Lori, I hope you are able to decide soon.

I have defintely got the baby bug but we're planning on waiting till Colin is 2.

[Beka]

ice cream sounds like a good deal either way

to be honest i am twitching- 110% certain i was "done" at the end of my Loki pg, 100% certain when he was born, now that he's 7 weeks old i am only 95% certain 4 is the right decision for us- either way i'm not on my own as David is now uncertain over whether to make a permenant measure for birth control... the long term decisions can wait a while though and being exclusive-bfing for the time being and subfertile anyway i don't think we have to worry about it too much until we're ready

(and definately no 2008 pgs allowed for me even if we do change our mind as my sister is marrying in florida and i have to be able to fly!)

[Flowermum]

Oh can I join here too? We're going to start ttc tonight again, di last month too and nothing.

DD is 8months now and we want to get cracking. Only thing is it took one go with her, this time... nothing! Just finished my AF today so I thought if we jsut start tonight and carry on like this for the next week plus, then we should get some sort of a result!

Oh I'm fooling myself!!!

[Flowermum]

BTW, I'm with you Lori, need to loose weight but if I had a litre of ice cream in front of me right now, I know who'd win!

[Erika]

LOL Aoife. Step away from the ice cream!

Good luck honey. But remember, it is perfectly normal for it to take a few months. Just enjoy the practicing :eyebrow

[Flowermum]

You're so rude! Just had to drag Simon out of bed to give him a cup of tea. Damn man fell asleep!

[Erika]

Rudeness is my middle name!

Well, actually it isn't. It's Elizabeth. But you know what I mean :giggle

And how mean of Simon!

[Sarah]

Yep, we're ttc! :D

For those that don't know me, here's the scoop:
I'm Sarah, 27 years old, dh is Chad 28 years old. We've been ttc for over 6 years now. Dh has a very, very low sperm count. We're now doing home inseminations using anonymous donor sperm from a sperm bank. The first two tries didn't work, so we're doing one more cycle. Unfortunately, if this one doesn't work, we'll have to wait awhile to try again because dh is leaving for Iraq again very soon.

Oh my.. same here! My pregnancy with Virginia was Horrible, to say the VERY least. And at the end I was 200% D-O-N-E. The day I had her.. DONE. A few days later.. not so sure. And now, 8.5 months later.. I want another baby desperately. Not Now.. or the near future.. but maaaaaybe down the road. Thank goodness my brain(the logical part of me) is running the show and not my heart or I'd be pregnant right now!
I wish I knew how to just let it go.

[Lisa]

We'll be starting TTC in July probably. I need to lose some weight. Like 30 lbs by then. I'm working on it :)

[Dana]

We are currently trying. We started at the beginning of June and nothing this month. With Charlie it only took 3 months. I am hoping it happens that fast again this time.

[Marcie]

We have been trying for the past 4 years. I will be trying Clomid on my next cycle.

[ErininCT]

We've been ttc since the beginning of May, charting since June, and nothing yet. My cycles have semi-regulated after bcps and I just started temping this cycle, so hopefully we'll get a BFP soon.

[Jeni]

We've been TTCing since January. We are now on cycle 9, day 9, and I really, really need to make an appt with my OB/G. I don't want to, because, just like with Amelia, I was afraid I'd be pg and take something I shouldn't, or, if we just waited 1 more month, it would happen on it's own. I will be making an appt next week though, and if I am not pg by next cycle, looking into other options to help us out.

[amandajo]

We had been waiting since July, but now we are officially TTC. I went off the pill last month. Last month, I took a pg test and was not pg. We will see what happens!

Hello Ladies,

I am not a mom yet, but am thinking about becoming one and am trying to figure out the best thing to do, and get tips about how to prepare my body.
There are of course other life factors to consider, but my longings seem to trump them.
