Why are you WTT? - Page 6

bunnyg82 · Jul 2nd, 2009, 18:10 PM

we're WTT so I can try and get healthier and also to try and put a little money by. In an ideal world I would be at my target weight and have no debt and some savings, but I'd be waiting a lot longer and I am not getting any younger so we are just trying to get in a better position than we're in now and then start trying x

We're waiting to time the mat leave money, as well. In Canada, we need 600 hours full-time to qualify for a year of mat leave payments. That's actually only 15 weeks, so I could theoretically get cracking with the TTC, uh, now, I guess?
But I do want to wait until Simon is at least 18 months before I try to deal with a newborn. And I want my body to have 9-12 months recuperation from the last pregnancy. Ideally, I'd like babies about 3 years apart, but I think I'm too old to space them out like that. (I'm 33).
And going back to work for a full year would be much better for us financially.
So many many reasons for WTT, yet it's so tempting for both me and my husband to start the TTC as soon as humanly possible.
Soooo tempting.
So very very temp....
Right. That's it! Where is he?

I am WTT till I go back to work. My baby is 4.5 months old and mat leave runs out end of jan, I need to go back to work and work so I can accrue more mat leave, planning on starting to try Feb 2010.

Waiting for a lot of reasons,

First & foremost.. I am not ready for another, Elyse is only 3 months old. I never want to be changing 2 peoples' diapers at one time IYKWIM, so I want to wait until she's 2, that way she'll be potty trained or I'll be able to wrap that up by the time baby #2 comes!

Then we have to live together of course

we're buying a house next year if all goes as planned

Also I want to get a "real job", or at least a better paying job..

And I'd like to be married. At least engaged. I won't even consider TTC until I'm engaged.

There are so many reasons why we are WTT (bigger house, work/business, I also wouldn't mind another lush holiday or two) but H really would like to TTC NOW and as time is ticking (in our 30's) I thought I best try and prepare myself

Im WTT till june/july/august of 2012/2013... i want Maisie till be in nursery, for oh and hopefully me to have a decent job with a house and some money behind us before having our next.

pinklizzy · Jul 3rd, 2009, 05:47 AM

Oh I wish we had a date for TTC! At the moment we live in a tiny flat above the practice where I work-barely enough room for us and the two pets! My OH has quite a few debts from before we got together so we're not in a position to get a mortgage and we can't rent anywhere with pets

OH is going for a promotion at work which would mean a lot more money coming in each month so fingers crossed.... If we were able to move, we could TTC

We were TTC until hubby came home and said that he has to deploy next year, so now we have to wait.
We are gonna WTT until the end of this year, because we want him to be home for the birth of his first child.

We are WTT as we want to move ASAP to a bigger house.
I'd also like a couple of years between babies, hopefully TTC when AJ is 2-3ish.
