You guys have no idea what all these baby-related thread are doing to my will power!

_Must … wait … three … more … months_

I really do want to wait until Bren is 2 1/2 before the next is born, because he is so prone to temper flareups as it is, and he’s not two yet (just 18 months). But _MAN_ it is hard when there’s all this talk about babies, pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding…

Kids are so damn cool. I want another.

:deep breath:

Calm, calm… at least I’m not ovulating this week, so I’m less likely to throw caution to the winds from sheer hormones. I wish I could rely on it taking a few months to ‘take’, but I’m hyperfertile, and get pregnant with no waiting (even without meaning to).

Hedra… my cousin had a couple of martini’s one night and threw caution to the wind because babies are just so cute. Her daughter will be 11 months when baby number 2 comes!
