start trying or wait until after my sisters wedding in Sep this year

[dontsqueezetheteabag]

DH and I got married 18 months ago. The plan was to start trying for kids once we had moved to our new house and settled a bit. This time has now come but my sister got engaged (which I am delighted about!!) and now I feel like I should wait until after her wedding.

Do any of you have similar experiences? Wait or just go for it!?

TIA

just go for it! i am currently 7 months pg but started ttc in May 2010. you never know how these things will work out until you try and if you are pg before the wedding what difference will it make to the day?

Go for it! My brothers getting married when I will be 6 months, I don't see what difference it would make other than not drinking which isn't a massive deal?
Good luck!

I say go for it. It's not like waiting an extra couple of months, it's almost a whole year and you never know how long it'll take you.

I also say go for it. I'm sure you won't mind not drinking. I would suggest checking to make sure you would be due at least a month after her wedding day for comfort and to avoid going into labour during the ceremony!!
Good luck

My sister got married in March 2010 and started trying, however she didnt fall pregnant, we got married in July 12 and as she wanted to be our bridesmaid she made the decision to stop trying for a couple of months from Nov-Jan 11/12.

Had she have been pregnant at our wedding it wouldn't have been a problem, but she made the decision that she didnt want to be heavily pregnant or have a newborn around that time.

Turns out we are both pregnant now and have 3 weeks between our due dates. So i would go for it when you feel ready.

Go for it you've no idea how long it might take. It's just one say and you'd be able to enjoy it even if pg

I'd say hang on another month and a half and then start. I will never forget a cousins face as they announced to the family their due date.....the date of her brothers wedding!

I agree with that,just don't go telling everyone on her wedding day Haha!! I say go for it. my best friend is getting married next April and I was concerned about it,but I'm now pg so fxd we'll have a 6 month old my then!!! at least u know u won't miss the wedding due to giving birth etc as its not far enough away!! good luck xx

DD1 took 18 months.
DD2 took 3

Thanks all!!

It is a dilema, I just don't want to steal her thunder. I think this is "her year" if that makes sense?

I never even thought that it could take a while.... thanks for your posts! So sensible!

Definitely get cracking now. I've been ttc for almost 3 years and never in my wildest dreams thought it would take this long

No one has the right to have "her year" - a wedding is one day! Peopke cannot put their lives on hold for others.

Besides, even if you were lucky enough to get pregnant right away, you would not be due until the end of October at the earliest, so little chance of a newborn "stealing her thunder".

Start trying you don't know how long it can take xx good luck

I would think about making a Spring born baby. Good for when they start school and a nice time of year to have a baby.

So I would start trying in June. Hopefully you'll be super fertile and it'll only take a few months to fall.

Buy a fertility and conception book. And start monitoring your cycle now. So you know roughly when you ovulate. (When you get the egg white discharge)

My sister gets married in September...in due about four Weeks before. We tried for over a year to get pregnant. My sister is over the moon and there is no notion of it being her year etc.
Don't waste time...as frank said out is one day and you're looking at the while of your life.
