Raff congratulations!!! ThumpUp I just read on your signature that your pregnant!!! That's wonderful. I wish you and bubby a very enjoyable and healthy pregnancy. Smile Smile

Lizzy82 - Great to hear you're jumping on the bandwagon again!! A little brother or sister for lil Belinda will be wonderful. I can understand your fears though. But hopefully it'll be a more enjoyable journey for you this time round. I think there is merit in what your Dr said about the 1st paving the way for the 2nd. Eden adores her little brother and they're really playing together beautifully at this age. It's so heartwarming. You asked about my DH.......I have no idea what to think with my DH - but I can tell you it's agony!! He asked me the other day what I wanted for my birthday. After toying with him for a little while I told him it's not something I want but something I need, and that is another baby - he rolled his eyes. I get my hopes up that there is a possibility when he doesn't say no, but because I'm not hearing yes, my mind just tortures me all day and all night wondering what will be. I just don't know what I'll do if he tells me no Crying . It's a horrible thing being so reliant on another individual to allow you something you need so badly. ThumbDown

Enjoy these last weeks of Winter - I see Spring peeping around the corner. We might see some little babies bloom with the new season perhaps Wink ?

Hi Everyone,

I am new to this forum and I am so relieved to see this thread 'pop up'.Applause

May I ask how you ladies decided that 'the time was right'?

You see, DH and I are still a little undecided....
Whilst we aren't 'actively' trying for a bub, I wouldn't say we are taking any precautions.Wink

From the moment I met DH, I made him aware of the fact, that ideally I would like to have our first baby by the age of 30... Well, that age is approaching, faster than I had prepared for and now, I am a tad uncertain.

We have been together for a number of years and recently got married, as a result, the next question on everyones lips is 'when can we expect the baby to arrive?'

We have both spoken about it and both agree that we see children in our future together... the question still remains though... when?

It seems that we can always come up with reasons as to put it off... we want to finish our various studies, we want to be more financially stable, we like having our 'freedom'...
Then I think perhaps, we are looking for excuses. You see, neither DH or myself have had a lot of experience with children. We are both the eldest of our siblings and have lived interstate from our families, so our contact with nieces and nephews has been very limited. Our close circle of friends are all currently childless.
I wonder if it is just fear that is preventing us from actively making the decision to TTC or whether they are actually valid points to consider.

I know that if I were to fall pregnant tomorrow, we would be ok with that. Ecstatic! Smile
However, to say out loud, 'I want to start trying for a baby'.... Well, it scares the daylights out of me!Scared

Oh gosh... I am sorry to vent like this, especially on my first post... Blushing I am hoping that someone may have some words of wisdom for me... Confused

Thanks in advance.

S.

I think all your feelings are normal! Of course we all want to be in the best position to provide for our children before having them. Unfortunately if we keep waiting for the optimal time, it probably will never come! When I finally fell pg with DD in 2009 I had only just been promoted at work and it seemed really bad timing, but I was just happy to he pg finally and I wouldnt change a thing!

I also had no clue how to even hold a baby before DD was born and I'd never even change a nappy! But you learn so quickly that one day you think back and it doesn't seem real that once upon a time you were clueless!

If you know in your heart that if you POAS tomorrow and two lines came up that you would be over the moon then I think you are ready.

All the best and lots of baby dust to you xoxo

Yay for a few others TTC in 2012!

Shanizzles, DH and I certainly talked about having kids over our years together, and a few months after getting married we decided it was time to try. We were very nervous about money, the size of our house, were we ready to be parents etc. It wasn't until I actually fell pregnant that we really knew we were ready! Best of luck in your decisions and your TTC journey.

Welcome shanizzles! Don't apologise for venting on here - that's what it's for right!
I agree with Raff I don't think there will ever a 'perfect time' but maybe a 'suitable time'.
After DH and I got married I wanted to enjoy it being just the two of us for a while and save up some money and once we had done that I felt like the time was right. Lots of people make comments like "Oh make sure you travel before you have kids' etc. and yes I would love to travel but you can't do everything - you just have to do what you want to do!
TTC#1 Since April 2011
Hoping for a little one in 2013 :)

Hi ladies,

Sorry it has taken me a while to get back to you, I just wanted to say a big thank you to all that offered their wonderful thoughts and advice.

DH and myself have been discussing more and more the possibility of 'actively' trying for a bub this year and have decided that for the next few months or so, we aren't going to put any pressure on ourselves, we are going to focus on one another and leave the rest up to the universe... As 'hippy-ish' as it may sound... If it is currently meant to be, then it will be.
It was nice to hear that whilst there may never be a 'perfect' time for children... there is a 'more suitable' time... and I believe we are there... If I were to POAS tomorrow and those two lines came up, we would be 'ready'.

So again, thank you.

For those TTC in 2012, I wish you all the very best and a massive sprinkling of baby dust.
For those that are awaiting the birth of their babies in 2012, I wish for you only health, happiness and a safe delivery.

S.

Hi Ladies,

Well I have a DD from my previous marriage and one of the more devasting things about the divorce was the fact I thought I would never have any more children. Well a couple of years on and life has changed completely. I met a wonderful man and we get married in Dec. He would love for us to have a baby (although he love DD to bits too). So pretty much we will be TCC from Dec onwards. Mainly as I don't want to be pregnant on our wedding day! Can't wait but I'm starting to do all the right things to get ready, been fully checked out by my GP, eating well etc. Looking forward to these next 10 months going very fast.

Smile Smile
Lynus xx

DH and I will be TTC sometime this year. Hopefully once we have finally relocated to QLD. However at the moment we are not preventing, I can't take contraceptives and latex irritates me, so we don't bother Blushing

Lexie told me today she wants me to have another baby so she can have little sister too Wub Crying it was hard because it was Bean's would be due date today. But she was adamant I have to have another baby, she was even sobbing...how can I say no to that Laugh now I just need her to convince DH LOL
ME Courtney (23)+ DH Ben (24) =


Miss you little Bean - 29/07/11
