Ok, yeah, I'm ready

Maybe I was just pretending to be ambivalent about wanting another child or maybe baby fever really does just hit one over the head suddenly and without warning like a ton of bricks. But for the first time in forever, I am hating having AF right now and already thinking "well, I could go almost two years without it if I get pregnant soon." AND I snuck a peek at my stash of maternity clothes while I was putting away DD's outgrown clothes this week. I wouldn't have to buy a thing!

So, um, thanks everyone for recognizing this before I did. Now that I reread my posts this week, it's so glaringly obvious. I still have to give myself some time, though, to get some things in order and get DH on board (plus come to terms with the fact that his crap schedule isn't going to change anytime soon). I just needed to tell someone this because I literally just admitted it to myself.

    Well, that is an important step. I made the decision this morning in the car that I for sure want one more. Perhaps not now, but at one point. That was a big thing too since DH and I have been talking about the possibility of just one. But then again, big things are happening in my life right now.

    I'm with Drea, every time I see your siggy I think how adorable your DD is, so clearly you and your DH were meant to make some pretty babies! Congrats on figuring it out!

    I kept thinking about your post last night & was going to page you today. I think we're both ready but not ready, so I was going to propose we just say fvck it & join the TTC club together.

    Can I join with ya? I'm ready too..sorta/mostly. DH even admitted he was ready too, which is huge, but then the next day DD skipped a nap and had a 7 hour meltdown. It was one of the worst days in forever so I'm backing off until I get back from Bangkok at the end of the month. Which means well be avoiding when I O in two weeks. Boo to wasted eggs.

    Harper's Mom- I hate it when DD does stuff like this. I want to take her aside and give her a stern talking to about supporting my "marketing plan."

    Anyway, looks like we have a TTC club of at least three.

    Too bad we need 6 members to give it a go :-) I keep reminding myself that DHs vote is equal to mine but then I think of being the one who will be pregnant, nurse, etc.and feel I should get at least 51 percent of the votes.

    My DH is not on board at all. Our original plan was to TTC right around Ari's 3rd bday. He's really stressed with school & work right now, so I may bring it up again when he's had a chance to chill out over summer break. He's worried about the financial impact too since I'm going to be w/o an income very soon. I keep telling him we won't have to buy diapers or toys, so neener neener, that's no excuse!
