Chart Stalk/Rant/Vent/Etc: Nope
GTKY: How many children did you want when you first got married, started thinking about kids, etc? Has that number changed now?
We've always wanted 2. I've always wanted them close, so I'm hoping I get KTFU soon!

GTKY: How many children did you want when you first got married, started thinking about kids, etc? Has that number changed now? We for sure wanted 3 kids and now we just plan to see how we feel after 2. If we feel complete we will be done, of something still feels missing we will go for a 3rd.

Chart Stalk/Rant/Vent/Etc: I'm 99% sure we will start next month but I keep getting cold feet. I think its that I'm expecting it to take a few months...if it happens on the first try I'll be in for a bit of a shock! But I'm ready. I'm pretty sure. lol.

I've always wanted 2, and I still do. However, there was a period of time when I considered stopping at 1. The decision to start trying for #2 was harder than going for #1.
Logan 10/20/2010 ~ Addison 8/26/2014
Ah. I missed those. There wasn't one last week but personally I think weekly is overkill anyway.

Chart Stalk/Rant/Vent/Etc: Nothing really.
GTKY: How many children did you want when you first got married, started thinking about kids, etc?
We always said 2 or 3, after we realized the costs of daycare we were thinking we were one and done, but instead we are just spacing them out so we don't have overlapping daycare. I would love 3 but we just can't do it financially.

Fun things LO(s) are doing now: Starting to recognize phonics... yesterday he told us that apple, alligator, and Anabelle all start with the letter A.
Chart Stalk/Rant/Vent/Etc: Chart's a mess due to IUD being removed recently, so just waiting it out to see what develops in the future.

Chart Stalk/Rant/Vent/Etc: I want to O already!
GTKY: How many children did you want when you first got married, started thinking about kids, etc? Has that number changed now?
I've alwys wanted 6 children, but DH wants 4. I'd be happy with 4, I guess, but for now I'm just saying that we'll take it one at a time and see where we end up.
Cycle/Month: 4/4
CD/DPO: 22/7...I think.
Age of LO(s): 4 & 5
Fun things LO(s) are doing now: the littlest one is becoming a little comic, and he is doing great with developing more of an imagination

GTKY: How many children did you want when you first got married, started thinking about kids, etc? Has that number changed now? 3....We're still at 3 though if this one is another boy we may go for 4.
My DS has a balance bike that he got for his birthday. He will stand and walk with it, but he's too nervous to do anything else with it. I'm kind of bummed he hasn't caught on yet!

Age of LO? 13 months
Fun things LO is doing now? She rides everything. She started riding her pony and now rides the dogs, her toys and anything that looks like she can sit on it.
Vents: none
GTKY: I wanted 4 and DH wanted 2. We've agreed on 3, possibly 4 if after 3 we want another.
Cycle/Month: We are on cycle 1. Finally!
CD/DPO: CD3
Age of LO(s): 2 1/2
Fun things LO(s) are doing now: Talking a crap ton. She is like a sponge lately. She just comes up and says things I have no idea how she learned. Lately she is spelling short words and her name.
Chart Stalk/Rant/Vent/Etc: I am having a crappy day, I burned lunch, and I have spent most of my morning crying over stupid stuff. So now that I layed DD down for nap, I'm eating ice cream and watching Grey's.
GTKY: How many children did you want when you first got married, started thinking about kids, etc? Has that number changed now? We originally wanted 4 or 6, but the more we talk about it, the more we just want to stop with 2. So we'll probably end up with 2. Unless by some small chance we have twins. (lord help me if that happens)
We love it so far! It seems great! I really thought it was going to take awhile for DS to catch on. We didn't really tell him that the little platform is for his feet (although he didn't put his feet on it, just tried lifting them up in the air). Apparently I have a little daredevil on my hands! Yikes!
TFAS- Trying for #2

Age of LO(s)- 33 months I believe. 3 in August
Fun thing LO(s) are doing now- Declaring Independence! and picking up words and short phrases quickly.
Chart Stalk/Rant/Vent/Etc- (triumph?)I quit smoking.
GTKY- 5, yes I want only 2 of my own. I want to make sure that my kids are well provided for, emotionally and monetarily. I believe that I think it is selfish and irresponsible to bring children into the world if you cannot provide for them.

Fun things LOs are doing now: being crazy. He says the funniest things. We are going to do potty training soon. I am looking forward to less diapers.
Chart Stalk/Rant/Vent/Etc: cycle day 1. It's not as easy, so far, as it was the first time. Between DH being out of town and bring busy, baby making sex has been off a little.
GTKY: How many children did you want when you first got married, started thinking about kids, etc? Has that number changed now? I've always wanted 2. I don't want an only child, but I don't want any more than 2. Seems like the perfect number for me.
He will. Just a month ago, DS wouldn't even put his leg over it. Now, he's starting to coast. It just clicked one day.

GTKY: How many children did you want when you first got married, started thinking about kids, etc? Has that number changed now? We wanted 3 or 4 but now I for sure want 2.

Fun things LO(s) are doing now: Identifying lots of birds--I'm a birder so this is exciting!
Chart Stalk/Rant/Vent/Etc: Just wishing and hoping--sure wouldn't mind being due in February
GTKY: How many children did you want when you first got married, started thinking about kids, etc? Has that number changed now? I knew I wanted at least 3. DH originally said no more than that, but now we don't really want to assign a number to it. I say we will know when our family feels complete. DD turns 5 in 3 months and I never pictured our kids being spaced this far apart, but I'm sure she will be a great big sister, so I'm not really worried about that anymore. We'll see.
Congrats!!! How long?

1. TTA for 2ish more months/cycles after this one.
2. I don't even know. I haven't temped in a week or more because DD is going through a night time sleep regression, and my temps would NOT be accurate at all. I'm 99% sure I'm in my 2ww. That's about all I can say.
3. 2 years and a little bit. She'll be "26 months" next week.
4. Everything is an emergency with Nora right now. She says with alarm multiple times a day, "Oh no!" as in "Oh no! Hop on Pop gone! Where Hop on Pop go?! OH NO!" This applies to socks that she can't get off her feet, crackers that get dropped on the floor, and so on. You know, emergency situations.
5. See #2. Sleep regressions suck for many reasons, and chart reliability is one of them.
GTKY: When we got married, we planned to have ZERO kids. We were going to be CFBC. About 6 years in, we decided we did want to try to have a kid or 2. Once we decided to TTC, we knew we'd have "one or two", and that's where we stand now.
Cycle/Month: 4/7

Age of LO(s):2.5
Fun things LO(s) are doing now: Singing. All. The. Time. Also, he's spelling his name!
Chart Stalk/Rant/Vent/Etc: I'm ready to be done with this cycle. TB is no longer working on my work computer, which kind of blows.
GTKY: How many children did you want when you first got married, started thinking about kids, etc? Has that number changed now? I wanted 3 and DH wanted 2. It took 2.5 years of trying for #1, and we have no clue how long it will take for #2. Recently, we decided that we'd be thrilled to have another, but we know that it might not be in the cards.TFAS - Trying for a Sibling

Fun things LO(s) are doing now: repeating everything! We do sign language and he is picking up a ton of signs too. I'm amazed daily at what his little brain can hold.
Chart Stalk/Rant/Vent/Etc: 24 day cycle this time. Seems to be getting shorter and shorter.
GTKY: How many children did you want when you first got married, started thinking about kids, etc? Has that number changed now?
I wanted to just take it kid by kid and see where that got me. I was thinking around 6. DH was set on 2, but has gone up to 3 at one point and was one and done until March when he changed his mind.Cycle/Month: 8/7

Fun things LO(s) are doing now: College, high school and stuff
Chart Stalk/Rant/Vent/Etc: My insomnia has been super bad lately which screws with my temps and it's ticking me off!
GTKY: How many children did you want when you first got married, started thinking about kids, etc? Has that number changed now? Well, this is my second marriage, so I thought I was done a long time ago. ExH turned out to be a pretty crappy father, or I would have had more with him, and now DH doesn't have any of his own so we're giving it a shot. I'd love 2-3 more if we can!
