Our Little Man is Finally Here!!!

Part of me really wants children, but like I've said earlier, we are the anti-TTC right now. We are just not at the point in our lives to have kids - I want DH to finish school (he's working on his master's and may want to do the PhD thing) and I really want to find my first real job in my field and enjoy working for awhile. I want to be a SAHM, so I want to enjoy some time out in the workforce for awhile.
It will be fun though once we have more than a couple expecting mom's around here though
Sorry Nicki! I added an option for you, if you didn't vote yet!
I know lots of May ladies already have kids - I'm just curious who's actively trying or planning to try for their first or more kids now that the weddings are over!
We'd like to wait a year to start trying and most people know that. Although I kinda wish we hadn't told people that we are waiting a year because I'm afraid everyone will be nagging about this time next year. Ah well. He just turned 30 and I'll be 30 in December so we don't want to wait too much longer than that. Plus we have the house already with the 4 bedrooms so we don't have much else to wait for. We just want to enjoy being married for a little while before we start our family.
Good luck to those trying now!
*Raises hand*
So we found out last week that we are pregnant. We were in the "if it happens it happens camp" We are definitely thrilled, but really didn't think it would happen as quick as it did. Our due date is around March 8th.
We were going to start this fall but have a few obstacles in our way now (haven't sold the condo yet, DH lost his job a few weeks ago, need to pay off the credit card). So we are going to try next summer. We are not on BC right now, just keeping track of which days are ?off limits?
I'm in the "Not for another year or so" section. I want a baby like yesterday. However, I also want to enjoy married life for a while. And pay some bills off, mainly my car which is next summer. And that works out because I have lots of friends with babies that I can hang out with, haha. I'm 24 and Brett's 30 and he wants kids before he is 35, so 1 1/2 years is a good amount I think. Although I'd be elated if I got pregnant now. After the shock of "wow, my bcp failed, I'm a satastic" wore off
PS: Congrats to those who are!!!

Stuck in counting limbo.
SAIF always welcome!!

Our decision depends on whether or not DH gets into medical school. If he does, we are going to wait 1 year. We want to have our first child between his 1st and 2nd years of school.
Even though I know it doesn't make sense right now for us money and time wise, it doesn't stop me from wishing for one!
Congrats to Jen, Nicki and anyone else who is PG! Mike and I plan to adopt and will not do so until we are settled in a house--a couple years I'm sure.

So I had to make a new name because not all of our family knows yet, but yup we apparently are. We were not trying; it was an oops, but MH is super excited. We just learned about it on the 4th so I am still getting used to the idea. I guess I have 9 months to get used to it.
EDD: March 13, 2010
Congrats!!
TTC #1 since 08/11 IUI#2 = BFP!
You're my true love, my whole heart ♥ ♥ ♥ <-- Married Bio <br>
Seeing these statuses on FB about my friends just freaks me out! Of course, it doesn't help that a lot of these people are younger than me, my age, or just a year older! I think they're too young!
I just want to say congrats to you other ladies who are pg too!! Its exciting to know that I'm not the only one around here getting pregnant so soon! Yay what fun!

I'd love to be pg right now but after 18 months off of BC, my body still hasn't regulated itself completely. The DH being 400 miles away is also a complication for the moment.
Kristin, I read what you were saying, and you are young, I agree---but if you have been on BC for that long you might want to consider getting off it now (or soon) because it can take a LONG time. Of course, only if you're prepared for the "it happened the first month after the BC" baby too. I just have a lot of friends and now myself, who have gone through a lot of issues because we were on BC for so long.
