I know we've done this before but now that our LOs are coming up on one has it changed your mind when you want to start trying?

mrsmullins0500 · May 2012

We've decide when LO is 2 we will start trying. I'm back and forth about it though. I have a feeling #2 isn't going to be near as easy to conceive as DS. Part of me would like to start now just incase it takes awhile with number 2.

We've decided to wait until closer to when LO turns 2. We are enjoying our little family of 3 right now.

rlmanning · May 2012

If it were up to me we would have started as soon as the Dr. gave us the ok. But thank god DH has enough sense to talk me down when I get on that band wagon. I think we may begin to start trying again around Thanksgiving/Christmas time. Ideally I would like to have a September/October 2013 baby

Still can't decide on the spacing for #3. Either we'll try late this fall (Nov/Dec) or late summer/early fall next year.

susieandmarty · May 2012

I thought DH was on board for early June - but now i am notsure (see my vent below) but I think sometime this summer.

LaRue86 · May 2012

We had planned to start trying in July....Obviously that ship has already sailed.

kattyleigh · May 2012

We are thinking #3 this fall. Yikes!

Ooooh! Good to see someone else who may be as crazy as I am. I have no idea if it would be pure insanity to space #2-3 similar to #1-2 or if it would be ok....

MrsPBNJ0220 · May 2012

We have decided to start trying around April of next year, DS will almost be 2 and hopefully I will have reached my weight loss goals by then.

JuneBugsMommy · May 2012

We will start trying next month! So exciting!!!

kimbo1216 · May 2012

If we don't have another in 2013, it will for sure be 2014.

Dooooo it!!! Hehe. Yes we are definitely spacing #2-3 out a bit more than #1-2 were. Not that we don't love the spacing (especially now), it just seems better to wait to have #3 when #2 is about two years old. Exciting!

jcsumm0 · May 2012

We're thinking when she's 2 we'll start trying. I'd be fine with waiting longer, I think, but DH wants to get through the "baby stage" sooner rather than later.

justme04 · May 2012

DH is starting a new job next month so trying right away isnt an option. We have said we want out kids to be close in age so we are thinking after he has been in his new job for a year or so we'll start trying. But it depends on how we feel in a year or so. Right now I have no baby fever at all....unlike when DS1 hit this age and all I thought about was having another. Luckily things were meant to be timing wise at the time.

Jills83 · May 2012

Right now we discussed waiting until V is closer to 2. I will likely stop taking BC at the end of this year and wait a few months before we go for it. I would really like the baby to be born in 2013, but I know it isn't always that easy. Last time it took two years.

Yeah, yours are a bit closer than mine are (21.5mon). All in all, the spacing has been as good as any spacing -- it has its issues, but has really been quite smooth and natural. I literally have a pros and cons list for another ~2yr gap vs. a ~3yr gap. Wish I knew for SURE if we were done after three or *might* go for #4...that would probably sway me one way or another. I am overthinking this.

11kacey · May 2012

We'll start trying when M is two. I would really like a spring/summer baby to avoid flu season and to lose all the weight I can't seem to lose until I wean which at this point might not be until Christmas.

Andie_83 · May 2012

We're going to start TTC in January 2013. That way (hopefully) the kids will be just over two years apart.

helenejr · May 2012

this week - well technically I am not due to ovulate till 2 weeks and AF is due next week - so this week is more just practice and not activily trying NOT to concieve!!!! yippee!!! wish me luck ladies!!!

kaitylin · May 2012

We are still nowhere near ready as much as I have horrible baby fever. I think we will be waiting 5-7 years if we even decide to have another. I used to say I only wanted 1 child and DH wanted 2 but now we have switched places. He is totally content with DD and doesn't want another (we live in a very HCOL area with a not great school system and private school is like 20K a year... 2 kids would be impossible unless I home school them.) I think I want to wait until DD is maybe 7 so that expenses can be spaced out more and she will be old enough to be a helper sometimes. I don't know if I could handle 2 toddlers. I miss having a newborn so badly!!!!

MommaA117 · May 2012

nope. We will start to think about it when she is around 2.

vanessa999 · May 2012

The plan has always been to start TTC in February of next 2013. I am sticking to that plan unless I don't reach my weight loss goals and unless we are not as financially stable as we should be. November is my favorite month, so I would love a November baby

Soxgirl07 · May 2012

We're starting next month! I'm a teacher and really want an April baby so that maternity leave rolls right into summer vacation. That makes July the perfect month to conceive, but I'd rather be a month early than late. I'll probably end up with another June/July baby and not get maternity leave again though!

amypogg6 · May 2012

We want to get to get pregnant late August/early September. I am also a teacher, but get 30 days maternity leave only, so we want to have our next baby May of next year. Really I want to be pregnant now. I definitely have the bug, but we're waiting to try. Last time we got pregnant right away. I'm praying that happens again.
