I has a touch of the baby fever
Don't worry, there will be no reproducing for years . . . but I feel like once I turned 27, my body just started wanting a baby. I don't know why . . . maybe because my mom was 27 when she had me? This weekend when we were hanging out with J's cousins and their kids, I wanted to snatch one up and take him home. Oh and yesterday on the subway, there was a family sitting next to me and while I was reading, I felt a tiny hand tap me. I looked over and this little kid, probably less than two looked up at me and smiled and waved. I melted.
Gah, my ovaries.
Re: I has a touch of the baby fever
Bahahahaha! I love your post! It's the best thing I've heard all day!
My sister is the same way
Will it help if I tell you Hunter has been screaming ALL morning and two days ago he sh!t all over our cream colored carpet. Projectile style?
Or I could tell you of my stretchie marks
That cured one of my friends baby fever fast (also her DH is moving to India w/o her for year, that probably helped).
Although, he doesn't even cure my second-baby fever. Because even when he's crying he is SO FLIPPIN' CUTE that I want another one.
Honestly, I would probably still get more excited about a baby puppy than a baby, despite the yearning. Or a baby pig.
Oh yes, this is me to a T. Even though I have baby fever, show me a PUPPY and I can't contain myself. The cuteness is almost too much for me to bear LOL! I can't get enough of puppies!
Thanks for making me feel better!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Me too! I honestly don't go nuts over other people's babies but show me a puppy and I have to hold him and kiss him and squeeze him. I go nuts over my baby of course.
And O.M.G. must have baby pig! So cute!
I have had baby fever from 20 til about this year (31)...Dont know what changed...I think getting a puppy and seeing what hard work he is and thinking about how taking care of a puppy doesnt even touch taking care of a baby has cooled my jets a bit.
Dont get me wrong, if my BC messed up or something I would be totally happy...but for right now...I think we are cooling it on the baby talk.
We do want 2 kiddo's and I would like to be done having them by 35...so things will be happening soon and in rapid sucsetion! ::gulp::
this exactly. I also started getting baby fever worse when I turned 28 probably because my mom had me when SHE was 28. . .never really thought of it though until you posted this.
I started "thinking" about wanting babies about 6 months after the wedding, it's rapidly progressing into a fever, but I'd still take a kitten over a baby any day! LOL
Seriously though, if I wasn't turning 30 next June, and DH 33 next July, we'd wait a couple years, but I don't want to up our risk of having trouble trying to conceive so we are already tryin'.
