Baby Fever

Ok..it's started! I'm ready for #2 now! What's crazy is that we just looked at each other the first time and got pregnant. I've been trying but not trying (if that makes sense) hoping but waiting but not and nothing......Cady will be 6 months next week. Doc now wants us to actively try for the next 6 months or she will put us on fertility drugs. What if the first time is a fluke. What if I can't get pregnant without help the 2nd time?

Yay  flick I think it would be smart if you wait until daddy grows out of the whole issue I think it would be stressful..I know it's stressful just having to potty train a toddler let alone having to take care of another baby...my doc said to wait until 9 months for another one...I go back and forth since my pregnancy was just a lot being sick all the time and I worry about me being anemic :/ I really want to adopt or foster

OK...I am not having second thoughts. Cady had an attack last night. It was the worst once since that really bad one that sent us to the ER. And she's supposed to grow out of it. It's not happening. Maybe I should wait til she grows out of it. I went and laid down with her last night but I couldn't sleep much due to the fear.

That would be awesome to be pregnant with your friend. I had a bunch of friends pregnant at the same time as me and it was a lot of fun and nice to have someone to talk pregnancy with.

I just cooked up a bunch of food to finally start Cady on food. I think the fact that she is going to be supplementing breast milk with food finally hit that she is growing up...that on top of the 6 month mark that doc wanted us to start trying again coming next week.....oh, and I found out today that a friend of mine in the concert band just removed her b/c and they are actively trying again. We're hoping to be pregnant together.

In my experience trying to not get pregnant is the quickest and easiest way to get pregnant! Jut relax and let things happen as they happen. Good luck and remember...practice makes perfect. :)

I agree with tomorrow as well, if you're not getting regular periods while breastfeeding, you'll never be quite sure when you're ovulating. But getting pregnant while breastfeeding DOES happen, and i wish you guys all the best of luck!

I wouldn't worry too much just keep in mind that because you are breastfeeding ovulation may not be occurring on a regular basis or at all yet and that's probably the reason you aren't.  I kinda want another one now but I also want to enjoy Genevieve a while longer before adding another baby. Also the idea of her weaning or having to wean before one year makes me sad.
