We have been NTNP since January lol. We will be TTC starting early December because now that vacation is booked I don't really want to be pregnant until after that. Maybe I will being something back with me from Mexico
We recently made the decision to start trying but I've only had one period so I'm guessing chances are it's going to take a little more time than when conceiving LO
Nope! This uterus is closed for business. 2u2 was hard, thank god it's finally getting a bit easier.

I actually really want to but we aren't yet. I still have baby weight to lose and it doesn't seem to be budging. Hopefully when I finish BFing I will be able to lose it. So, maybe in the spring. Plus daycare cost is an issue and everytime DH and I start to talk about it we end up saying now isn't the time.
Due to our cruise in June and a wedding we are both in and July, we are waiting until after those things to start trying for #2. I would like to start sooner, but I also wouldn't like being pregnant during those two things. We also have to time it the best we can for the due date to line up with off times at work. I'm self employed and can't be out during busy seasons so there's that too.
This IUD is staying put for at least another year or two. DH and I have just starting planning for a vacation (just the two of us) for late next year sometime and I DO NOT want to be pregnant then. We are thinking Hawaii!!
We're not trying til the end of next summer...DH will graduate in late spring, then we have a family Hawaii trip planned for July! It'll be a last hurrah for us for awhile, so we're pretty much just waiting til after that.
Our current plan is to start trying late spring/early summer. However, we need to really take a look at finances before we do it. We are moving in to our new house in 2 weeks so that means a bigger mortgage and then will be paying for daycare starting in January. So we will have to see if we can comfortably afford a second child after that. And there's also a part of me that is terrified to be pregnant again because all I remember from 1st trimester and part of the 2nd is being absolutely miserable and saying I would never do this again.

This is us too. The cost of daycare is crazy for 2, but who knows. I'd like to be pregnant in the next year since I want 3-4 children. DH on the other hand...I think he's happy with our one.
This is us. DH says we're one and done, but I just can't get on board with LO being an only child. We need to win the lottery!

ETA The thought of the daycare cost for 2u2 does give me a slight heart attack though...
He wants to try this month but that would mean DTD tonight but he's pissing me off today. Highly unlikely that this will be the month.
