overwhelmed but excited at thought of TTC


Hey girlies,
just wondered how many others out there are excited, but a little scared at TTC... I've spent so long telling myself that I have to wait to start a family that now my OH and I are TTC it feels quite surreal, but obviously in a good way!

We had been planning it for two years time, but my maternal instincts have been so strong that I asked how he'd feel about trying now instead and although the thought of becoming a dad is something he wants, it scares the life out of him so I was amazed he agreed to try now!

It feels so wierd to be planning a pregnancy rather than simply 'letting it happen' and its strange to find myself buying baby bits and talking about when i'm pregnant or when the baby gets here even before I have a baby in me!!

When I read up about conceiving it scared the life out of me too when I found out it can be such an uphill struggle!

This whole thing is a scary but hugely exciting process! Have already bought ten tests off ebay and wasted one 'trying it out' even though i knew it wouldn't be a Can't believe how obsessive babies make you!

Here's some babydust for all of us who are TTC

Welcome wishingonastar
Yea the thought of really planning from a to b as opposed to let it happen au naturale is odd, but you get to meets loads of crazies like us along the way and get to share so much, sometimes i think my hubbs doesnt REALLY wanna know about my cervical mucous but the ladies here are also exited about that kinda stuff

ha ha hansie! i noticed i had cm the other day after i had tried to jump my OH's bones, then when i told him later that day i had noticed the CM he got all huffy and said he felt used! i shall not make the mistake of mentioning body signals to him again for fear of him taking away BD as punishment! lol
