Euch getting so impatient to start trying but we can't until at least October for various medical and financial reasons.

Me too - I fully sympathise but can't really complain because we'll be TTC number 2. The feeling of anticipation, excitement and impatience is definitely the same though.

I think we'll be waiting until December / January at the earliest though. I'd like to avoid an August baby. I know how much all my friends said that it sucked having a birthday in August. Although DS was meant to be mid Oct but arrived almost 7 weeks early so he's late August anyway Grin

haha. I am an august baby and my husband is July. I don't really mind august - September would be a whole extra year at nursery rather than school so swings and roundabouts really.

Although heavily pregnant in the height of summer doesn't sound very pleasant esp for someone like me that really hates the heat. but when it happens it happens

You are right, there are definite upsides to August birthdays. Maybe I just had grumpy friends growing up Grin.

I highly recommend a portable aircon unit if you can get one. We bought this because I struggle with the heat at the best of times, nevermind pregnant - www.screwfix.com/p/blyss-wap-12ea26-mobile-evaporative-air-conditioner/462gp

We are hoping to move house towards the end of this year (another reason i am desperate for Sept/Oct - can't move before that as husband on probation at new job). We are planning to put air conditioning in the bedroom when we move.

Hello! I’m planning on TTC in October as well. Wish I could just click my fingers and it would be then!
