Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to get pregnant again?

i don't want to wait (because of my age)...but Dave does - so at a minimum - we'll wait a year i think..

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to get pregnant again?

Im due in a week. I also have aVERY busy year ahead of me. Weddings, moving house buying etc. So I would like to wait until Xmas to try again. I will be 34 this year and would like to be pregnant by 35 if I could (IF WE HAVE ANOTHER). But I have learned never plan, it never works out that way you want.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to get pregnant again?

DS will be born April 09. Because of my age I would like to try again when he is a year old.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to get pregnant again?

well after DD i thought by a year later-then the reality of 2 under 2 scared me since DD was a handful!
now i am PG again and this is it for me. i do not want to be PG again. sad to write it but i know this is it!

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to get pregnant again?

I'm due in the next couple of weeks.

It took us 2 years to get pregnant with and I'll be 38 in a couple of months. DH is 43. Our plan is to go back to the RE around the end of August, beginning of September this year and to do a Frozen Embryo Transfer in October.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

originally I would have liked maybe 3 years apart for my 1st & 2nd.....but now that I'm considering staying home after DC is here.....then maybe when he/she turns 1 we'll start trying.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

We'll start trying for another when this baby is around 1.5 yrs old.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

No definite plans until we go through this one first but thinking fairly soon. Let's see how long it takes me to forget about labor!

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

I am just trying to get through this one lol.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

Its so hard to say. I don't have any children yet, so I don't know exactly what to expect. I know what people say, about the stress and the work and everything, but I think I will know better once the little one actually comes. However, b/c of my age (34), the sooner the better.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

Can't really say right now! It depends on what kind of baby we have- if he/she is difficult we might wait longer. Plus we haver a big year ahead of us with moving to NC and starting over there!! In a perfect world we'll start trying when the baby is around 18 months!

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

Originally I wanted my kids to be about 2.5-3 years apart so I probably would have started TTC when our first child was about 1.5 years old.

I've had such a difficult pregnancy that I don't know if I want more children. I've got 5 years until I'm 35 so perhaps I'll change my mind by then. We'll see what happens.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

2 years

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

Probably start trying again when DS is 2 years old.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

i want a little bit of time with this first one, but dh and i do want the kids to be fairly close in age so they can play together, etc. we're probably going to play it by ear and see whenever feels right.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

We want to wait until DC is a little under 2 to start trying for # 2. Our reasons are mostly financial-- I need to build up more sick days and he needs to get closer to top pay.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

We will have to wait at least a yr after Baby #2 for Baby #3 because I will be going on my 3rd c-section.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

For us it depends on whether or not DH gets out of the military or not. If he does in 2011, then we'll start once we're settled in 2012. If he stays in then maybe early 2011.

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

It's hard to say...maybe a year after this one. We need a bigger house though!

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

we're most likely done after these 2!

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

DH and I have not really discussed it yet, but I think I'd like to start trying again when this baby is a year old. My brother and I are 21 months apart and that was always a decent gap. I'm not getting any younger and I'd like to have two, plus it took us more than a few months for me to get pregnant and stay pregnant (knock wood).

Re: After this pregnancy, when do you want to try to get pregnant again?

I'm done. This baby will be my second and the kids will be 2 1/2 years apart. I wouldn't want them any closer in age than that.
