I think I want to get pregnant

NatPhoto09 · August 2011

I think about another baby all the time. How much I didn't like the newborn stage, how exhausted I was, balancing my long commute/work/homelife, etc. But lately I've been nostalgic and think of how I felt while I was pregnant, the excitement, look at my belly pictures,think of Nic as a baby and while it is still scary it is not as scary as it was just a few months ago. DH and I talked about this weekend and I'm more confused. I hate that my work is dictating my decision but this God awful commute is nearly killing me and a newborn would make it even worse. Thanks for letting me put it out there.

Woohoo! You never know baby #2 might be a ton easier! That is what I hope anyway. But I probably still have another year before I even think about it.

Hey, how long is your commute again?

Go for it! I saw your comment in the last post about when you said "when we have baby #2" (or something like that) and I immediately thought, ah, she's starting to move the other direction

. It's great having 2 and you'll be surprised how things just come to get and it works.

I drive about 65 miles each way (agh!) So on a good day a little over an hour on a bad day 2 hours. but usually it is an hour in the morning and about 1.5 in the afternoon.

I got really excited (more than I want to admit) when DH and I were talking about it and he said, if we are going to be ready in two months why not now. So we'll see how things work out. And thanks for the encouragement. I get hung up on the not so glorious parts of motherhood that I forget how wonderful it is to grow a baby and then see them grow into little people.
