  @RachaelAdy A lot of women here have never had 1 baby before (myself included) so I’m pretty sure were all aiming for any month we can get at this point. I would take June, July, August etc...whatever I can.

  @RachaelAdy virtually everyone here. If you’d like to participate in this awesome community, please be sure to read the newbie thread, as we don’t typically like one off posts like this as it clutters up the board. Lurk around. Many of us are trying for a sibling (TFAS). We have entire weekly thread dedicated to women trying for their 2, 3, 10 (just kidding....for now). Be sure to introduce yourself in the weekly newbie thread.

  Are we taking bets here people?  Like if OP will be the SS who does get knocked up immediately after taking out her IUD with her 4th living baby?  Or will she return in 1-3 cycles to lament how HARD her TTC life is with a DD post about not immediately getting KU with #4 and she's soooooo traumatized cause it's taking FOREVER for her magical baby? OR my favorite... maybe she'll return in a month and not KNOW if she's KU, but will be SS like WOAH because she didn't wait til she had an actual AF and MIGHT be PG and now needs us to tell her because she can't take a test and she was never late once in her entire life, despite having her perfect little IUD in, so we'll all have to get out our ute goggles to let her know her specific issues.

  @RachaelAdy To give you some perspective, the person that we are celebrating getting KU this week has been trying to get pregnant for 27 months, and has been an active member here for over a year. Getting pregnant (and staying pregnant) for many in this area of the board, at times can feel impossible or like it is never going to happen. It is awesome that you have been so successful and can easily hope that it will happen again in just 1 cycle, but it is something that is very hard for many to relate to here. It is an incredibly supportive group that can bring some much needed laughter right when all
  hope is gone. So if you decide to join, intro yourself in the weekly thread and join the daily posts depending where you are in your cycle. Best wishes to you on this journey, I hope it is short for you.

  Getting my IUD out on Wednesday and will be hoping to get pregnant on my next cycle. That should land me with a June baby! This will be baby #4 for us. What about you? Are you aiming for a June baby? Which # will this be for you?
