Super planner?

jlynnlavery

Hi I'm a super planner, actually pretty obsessed about getting pregnant at the right time. A little background...DD1 is 3 1/2 born Jan, DD2 is 19/20 mos born DeC We desperately want a little boy but not born in the winter as we already have 2 birthdays and Christmas within 3 weeks of each other. I have been on Some sort of BC since DD2 was born, implanon right after birth for 5 months, ortho trycyclin LO for around a year and now depo. I've had one injection of depo My next would be end of aug beginning I'd sept. I'm trying to decide to get off BC to get back to normal and chart my ovulation. Any one else? Any advice?

You can plan all you want. The truth is, pg and babies do what they want. It can take you months to get pg. if you skip a few cycles to avoid birthdays, the baby can come early. Just be prepared that it may not happen how you want.

Yes this is true. And it wouldn't be the end of the world if the baby had a dec or jan.

Of course baby could come early or late. Both my girls were born on their due date...completely natural. But things change like I said above it wouldn't be the end of the world.

I'm more worried about getting off BC and how quickly I'll go back to "normal" but everyone's different so I guess I won't know until I do it.
