So I’ve told a couple of you that Dennis and I had planned on trying for #2 starting in June. Thing is , tho, that the closer we get to that date, the less ready I feel. I mean, we still have a wreck of a house to deal with, D still has to work his shit schedule, Jada could use more of our attention, and… I’m still 30 lbs overweight!
I’m just not so sure about it. So come June we might just not really try but just stop trying to not get pregnant. I dunno… If we wait, I say we wait till October so they end up having close to the same birthdays. Every now and again I think we should stop now and just have a single child. sigh…
NO! dont stick with just one child!!! i have just one child and i am ALWAYS borrowing my neighbors kids to entertain mine. 2 or more, thats the rule :) and i am glad to hear you say your not ready. You never are. If you were “ready” you would be setting yourself up for failure. I like your idea of stop trying not to and see what happens.
Reply to lizzieandjenniyou two have cute kids.
Reply to geekychick1we need more cute kids in this world.
yeah.. u’r right about her needing a little sister or brother. (c’mon boy sperm!!) she gets bored a lot by herself and then gets into things she shouldn’t. yeah.. i guess anytime between June and october would be OK. 4 months. I wonder how long it’ll take to get preggo.
Reply to Tania (digsite)awe thanks! :)
Reply to Tania (digsite)as a product of a large family I only have one suggestion. Kids should never out number the parents.
Reply to cadetstimpyYou know Tania, you are so beautiful. Your daughter is one of the most precious little angels I’ve ever seen. Please have another one, so she won’t be alone and she’ll have someone close to her age to interact with. (look at you and your sister) Even if it’s a girl, who cares. They will be both beautiful little dolls!
I didn’t want kids unless I had my weight problem under control. Shit here I am, 36 years old, married and still without children. I really think that the extra weight can come off ya, if you are ready for it to come off.
Just walk it off during your pregnancy. You are healthy! Stop being so hard headed. :P They have workout programs for pregnant women!
Hugs!!! Be good to yourself. Please give Jada an extra kiss for me.
Reply to phoenixcoffeeheh… that’s D’s motto!
Reply to Tania (digsite)yeah… i guess you’re right but I really did want to feel like we have SOMETHING under control before having to drop everything for another baby. At least have the house repaired…
sigh…
Reply to Tania (digsite)The house will be repaired, it’s obviously in the plans. Everything will come together just as it should. That’s how things happen.
