Not quite yet but tempted to start in the next few months. Anyone else?

We’re considering it. Had an unexpected early miss in September. Would both love another, and am scared of the chaos. Would have 3 under 4. But who knows. Ttc-ing first took years. So it’s hard to think about timings. I’d like to start now. Dh wants to wait on other few months (due to work stuff).

I've just fallen pregnant for the 2nd time with a 3rd. I had a miscarriage in sept from a shock pregnancy & it actually made us realise we really did want it. Was lucky enough to fall pregnant again on our 2nd cycle, so nervous though I just hope this one sticks! We have dd6 and ds3.

Following re ages 👀 I've got a 2.5 year old and 8 month old but we would love a third in the future but god knows when!!

@Unicorn25 mine are 11 & 2. Never wanted a big gap between the first two but life happened. I’d love to have two growing up together though

@Anonbaby sorry to hear it's taking a while, it's definitely so unpredictable isn't it? I had 4 miscarriages prior to my first but then conceived my second no problem, it's very strange.

Oh wow there's lots of responses 🥰

How old are your current children? If I'm successful I will have 3 under 5!

My eldest is 6 and youngest is 15 months 😊

My husband is having a vasectomy reversal on Thursday. As soon as he is recovered we will be trying to conceive #3 for us both but #1 together!

Anonbaby · 10/01/2023 16:01

We have been trying for number 3 for almost 2 years to no avail with two children conceived easily.

smileladiesplease · 10/01/2023 15:02

We had 2 10/8 and decided last roll of the dice for us sged 36! Had twin dds. 😂😂. Best decision.

Twoinapod · 10/01/2023 15:01

Having my coil out in 45 minutes ready to start trying for number 3. Feeling a mix of emotions right now.

Mrsrobinsonx · 10/01/2023 14:56

We are trying for baby #3 currently!

About to start cycle number 4 x

00Bubbles00 · 10/01/2023 14:55

Hi, we just decided to start trying - I'm fairly old (39) so it may not happen but we thought we'd give it one last roll of the dice!

northernmam · 10/01/2023 14:52

We are in our first month of trying for baby number 3. I'm currently 4DPO and am hoping to test around 20th, day before my period is due xx
