Should I go back to TTC?
As many of you know, DH & I are 'on hold' in the TTC dept. But I'm still getting that maternal knock on my door.
We took a break because, after unofficially TTC after the m/c, I was drained & had certain things to take care of. We're not done... (we're moving 7/15 to a new place and I'm going to Vegas with the girls the following weekend).
Realistically, I want to TTC without having any moving strains nor having alcohol in my system... I will probably O around move-time, and I know alcohol will play a big picture in Vegas (when I'd be in the 2WW).
What would you do? Would you wait one more month and feel guilt-free while TTC? or fullfill that maternal instinct?
HELP!

Re: Should I go back to TTC?
I would take the month and finish what you need/want to do and then get yourself mentally & physically ready for TTC.
Enjoy Vegas!!

Re: Should I go back to TTC?
I say YES.....moving into a new home brings on MAJOR emotions---often leading to major nookie! Gotta bless every room!!
Also-you can drink in the 2 WW--anything you do BEFORE the BFP is fine-so my Dr said. Make sure you keep hydrated though to balance out the alcohol!
I drank during both my 2WW before my BFP and all is fine.
I think the ease of being a new home and a vacation will be great for TTC, I am a firm believer in that it happens when you are trying the least/least expect it.

Re: Should I go back to TTC?
I say Yes... go ahead with the whatever happens happens method. That seems to work for ALOT of people. Life is too short. Let this month be free spirited and enjoy it. IF it ends with a BFP then one more thing to rejoice about.

Re: Should I go back to TTC?
I think you should just go for it, in fact I agree with everything Shana said. My doctor told me the same thing about the 2ww, he said not to worry about anything before the BFP.
Good Luck in whtever you decide.

Re: Should I go back to TTC?
Okay, so if you are still undecided, think of it this way:
If we all voted for wait - would you have felt disappointed?
If we all voted for get back on the wagon and join us, would you have felt overwhelmed?
Do what makes you feel comfortable, but in my opinion it sounds like waiting would make you feel comfortable (just based on your explanations).
But whatever you decide best of luck!!!!!

It's funny you put it that way... because if you all said for me to wait, I'd feel disappointed. But if you all said "go for it!", I'd still feel irresponsible drinking during the 2ww. 
I guess the whole thing behind my question is to not put blame on myself, huh? I was probably looking for reassurance to be wreckless, knowing that I should be cautious during TTC-time. I'm sure I know what I should do, but am just being a baby... 
Sorry guys.

Re: Should I go back to TTC?
It's soooo not an easy answer at all!!
I think we've all had hestitation during this process about how "good" we are going to be, versus how much we just want to live normal lives while going through this so that we don't lose our minds!!
I know whatever you decide will be the right thing for you and your situation!!

Re: Should I go back to TTC?
I would wait. Go to Vegas and have a blast without worrying. I know some doctors say that the 2 WW doesn't count and you can drink, but that really makes no sense to me. If you're pregnant how can you drink?
Go and have one last horray. Start TTC the next month.

Re: Should I go back to TTC?
I agree to wait one more month. Get Vegas and the move over so your head is clearer and you can do both without stressing so much. Let us know what you decide
