xp~Nervous!

notkateanymore

Ok, I have a confession...I'm nervous as all get out about getting pregnant again. I mean, it's been almost 6 years! We have been back and forth with trying for a number of years, but for a number of reasons never fully committed to it. Now that we're "all in", I'm beyond nervous about everything. I got pregnant super easy last time, but I'm just sure it's not going to be easy this time. I'm worried that now that I want another one so badly, I'm not going to be able to have one. On top of that, I had horrible PPD and we're both worried that it could become an issue again. We know the signs and what to do now, but I still feel like I could be tempting fate to try again. Not to mention that we'll be starting all over with everything. I haven't been up for a night feeding or changed a dirty diaper in a very long time! But, bottom line is that we want another one very much and our daughter is dying for a sibling, so we're going for it. Anyway, I'm not sure what I want y'all to say, maybe I just wanted to get it off chest.

i think everyone in that situation feels that way at one point or another. I know I did. Even though i fully know that worrying- isn't going to do a damn bit of good- and it surely wasn't going to change my mind on TTC when i was ready.

I would just chalk it up as normal- and have fun TTC. When it happens- it happens. You have nine months to get used to being pregnant again- granted this time you really don't get to enjoy it as much because you are so busy taking care of life in general.

As for the PPD- worrying about that isn't going to make it better or have it not happen- as you know. You know the signs- you know what to do- this time around you are READY for it- if it were to happen (hope it doesn't).

Try to just go with it- Best of luck!!!
