So how many of us that were BNOTB are now BOTB or close to it?
I'm raising my hand partially. Close to it...
And I'm not talking to any of my RL friends or family about it so coming out on the boards is all I've got.
Re: So how many of us that were BNOTB are now BOTB or close to it?
I was WAY on the BNOTB train (hence MH's vasectomy), but we are now both BOTB. OMG...I never never thought this would happen to me. As you stated above, that is what we are doing too. I'm not telling my family until it's a reality.
I was never totally against it, just not ready and undecided. Now it doesn't seem like the worst case scenario, but the thought of actively TTC scares the living heck out of me. After 15 years on BC I can't imagine swinging to the other side of the pendulum.
ditto every thing you said, T.
and the thought of having a screaming baby and no longer having "me" time is scaring theshit out of me.
H's grandma took up smoking to get "me" time after the kids were born. Not healthy, but you see the extreme measures...I took the route of being irritable to scare everyone away. You find ways.
ohhhh, I wonder if I could convince S to take care of the baby while he watches his damn sports. this would give me a good 30 hours a week to myself.
and honestly, I don't really want kids right now as I know as much as my clock is t.i.c.k.i.n.g. no one is getting any younger.
ugh... the dreaded bio clock.
My pregnant 35 YO CW told me that the classification that the doc gave her was "elderly" (for a pregnant woman)
Gotta love it.
see? this scares the bejeezus out of me.
Nope.com. I told my H we would need to be able to afford a full-time nanny before we could even consider that, because I still want to go on trips and stuff like we do now. And really, if you want to constantly get away from your not-yet-conceived kids, should you have them?
H is in the same boat as me, this is something we discussed well before marriage, but knowing our age difference he's always said he would defer to me if I changed my mind. So far, not happening.
It depends on the day for me, but either way we are holding off until I finish school/bar exam
this exactly. we've agreed i need to finish school and start my second career before even discussing it again. so...that's about 5 years until we even reconsider.
Um yeah, me too, x 2.
After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!
Your getting it all out of the way at once
