    Default I just HAD to tell someone!!

    Last night....my husband and I....decided to stop trying NOT to have a baby! What I mean is, we've decided to let nature run it's course and whatever happens, happens! I'm so glad I have you in the bubhub world to 'talk' to as I can't say anything to anyone IRL!! (A few of you know me IRL, so just pretend you didn't see this! )

    We can't tell anyone because they all think I'm about to go back to work full time (and hubby stay hoe to save $$) but we've made the decision that we're awful at saving/budgeting so we can't see us any better off financially next year than we are right now so we thought why wait! We LOVE our DS and we know it will be hard (I think it's hard at any age!) to add another but we sooooo want to!

    So, I have to tell a little fib to work that DH can't find a part time job so no full time for me yet (technically 100% true at the moment) and just not give family/friends any updates.

    The main person I'm worried about is my best friend who has been ttc for at least two years now She would usually be the first person I would run to with this news but I can't. I feel awful that we've been trying this whole year NOT to have a baby and that's all they really want Also, I know that I'll probably get pregnant very easy as I did last time so I don't want her to know how long we actually tried if that makes sense?

    Anyway, feel free to join me in your secret ttc journey!! I feel better now getting that off my chest!!!!!!!!!!

    Mummy to a perfect little boy. I now know what love is

    Now I'm feeding one AND growing one!! I'd really better eat more

    thats awesome for you that your gonna try, and yes its very hard when others have been trying, i was trying for so long after my first daughter i hd given up after 6yrs, not that we were activley trying we just have never used condoms and i nevr got pregnant, in saying that we didnt dtd alot anyways, but other people i new was having babies and i got upset but i was so happy for them at the same time, and she should be for you also, sure deep down it hurts when you want one so bad and its not happening, but its so exciting when others around you are pregnant as you can enjoy it with them, good luck on your ttc journey

    Thanks Etienne I'll need to come to you for newborn bf advice soon hopefully! (It's already been a while for me!!)

    Thanks Killy, it is such a sensitive issue and I actually find myself dreading getting pregnant as she would be the first person I would tell I know she'll be happy for me but I know she'll also be so upset. What would you do in my situation? Would you tell the person that you are ttc? Or just tell them about the pregancy?

    Haha me!? No way I'm sure second time around it will be a breeze! I seen a post of yours saying you've gotten to 12 months with your DS? Congratulations I'm at 6 months with DD this Sunday, cannot beleive it!

    And all the best TTC x

    Hey lovely I would only tell them when you fall pg thats what I did when I was trying. And when I was on the other side I found it hard knowing my friend was trying she kept telling me I'd get pg before her... And I didn't.

    It's so so hard your damned if you do and damned if you don't..l I just try imagine how I would fell and do what I think will hurt less. Xoxo
