July 15 has their 1st pregnant (again) mom , do we have anyone KTFU? Or even TFAS yet? I remember there were a couple ladies who wanted babies close together but I think they were fairly infrequent posters?
I was just thinking yesterday that I can't believe no one from J15 is KU yet! We're NTNP and I would love to be pregnant soon but I'm doubtful anything will happen until after I stop BF what with the infrequent sex and no sign of AF since W was born.
kemdupuis, your outfit is so cute and you look gorgeous!
We started NTNP when DS was 9.5-10 months old. AF returned around 10.5 months PP. I decided to wean DS (figured it would take a week as we were down to only 2x/day). Last day I nursed him was the day he turned 14 months. We got our BFP 6 days later.. [br
Eta: I know people who have gotten pregnant while BFing without having AF first. So ya never know

Same. But I have exactly zero signs of AF coming back any time soon, so whatevs.
+1 to this. Except we likely won't switch to TTC. DH would like to get a V. We figure between his treatment for low T (and the fact it can decrease male fertility), BFing, my thyroid stuff, (and I was dx PCOS before DS) that *if* we were to get pregnant it would absolutely be meant to be (yes I realize that's all failed logic. And yes we actually are fine if we do get preg. And I think I would like a 3rd at some point but will also be content if it's just our 2)

Bluedaisy, I mean, considering women can have babies at 13 and at 43, sure you *could* be a grandma. I know a few SUPER young looking grandmas. But why in the HELL would you ever ask that??
All I can say about TTC # 2 is a big Hell No. Maybe in a year I'll be ready for the torture again. FFFC?
AMEN sistah! I don't want anything in this uterus for at least a year...and I'm old already. I want a 2nd but we are trying to make sure that everything from this baby is paid off and we have a nice cushion in the savings before trying again because babies are expensive yo. We plan to chat about it again between June and December of next year. I'm ok trying again when she's anywhere from a year old to 18 months.

Ugh, yes. I need our savings to recover from my (ridiculous) unpaid maternity leave. And I refuse to take anything less than the 12w I'm allowed so we really need to build it back up before I can think about pregnancy again! This time I'll have STD though so it shouldn't be as bad....hoping for 2017!

I have no plans to try until V is 2, maybe 3. Our finances are tight with just the one kid in daycare, no way could we do two.
Also, I can barely function with just the one right now. No need to add in another one for a long time.
Also, I had a rough pregnancy and postpartum body issues have sucked big time for me, so I'm in no rush to jump back into either.
I also want to try to get down to my prepregnancy wait, because throwing in another pregnancy weight gain on top of this one, will make it that much harder to get healthy again. And, to think I complained when i was 15 lbs overweight, being 30 lbs over is so daunting! But, optimistic as soon as they start sleeping better (any day now, right?) it'll be more manageable.
ETA: prepregnancy weight. WTF brain, in my last post, I wrote through out the toast, before editing it to the proper threw.

My DH keeps trying to convince me it's time to start trying again. I keep telling him NO! I am not even willing to discuss it until she is at least 1. If not 1 1/2.
He keeps saying that he's totally ready to have another one. Cool bro. You don't have to be pregnant for 9 months. You don't have to give birth. You don't have to recover from giving birth. And you work 5 nights a week, so you aren't home alone for the nightly play/dinner/bath/bedtime routine.
I am just so not ready for a 2nd yet. I want to enjoy my family of 3 for a little while longer.

Since baby was such a tough very young baby, we had considered being one and done. Now that she is doing better, we think we will probably want at least one more, but not right now! I couldn't even imagine having another baby right now, that being said, we are all about condoms.

I know, I keep thinking to myself, "I would love to be as fat as I thought I was pre-pregnancy". I could never handle getting pregnant again before I lose all of the weight I've gained in the last year.
After DS my biggest weight (and inches) loss occurred between 6-8 months PP. I lost (I believe it was) 5 inches in my hips during that time.

I still feel like LO is a little baby so idk how people feel ready for another one already. I understand if you have a toddler and miss the baby stage but already? And I'm not trying to tell anyone how to live but from what I understand, it's best for your body if you get pregnant again 18-60 months after the last one. I definitely don't feel ready for another one.
