As the title says, anyone else TTC a third? Been agonising over it for a while but think we are ready to go for it. Although at the same time keep getting petrified that I might get pregnant and suddenly regret it.

Two DC aged 1 and 4, both took between 12-14 months to conceive, with a few chemicals along the way. So not expecting things to happen imminently.

We are also TTC our third. Currently have 2yo and 4mo. 1st was a happy suprise and 2nd took 7months with two chemicals.
This will be cycle 2!
Hopefully this will be our month.
Currently CD 9

I wouldn't say 'trying' but were definitely not 'trying not to'Hmm

Have a five year old and a 4 month old. Am currently 9dpo ... no idea what I'm doing really and if it's a terrible idea, the thought is definitely terrifying and at times the thought of three seems ridiculous BUT I also can't stop obsessing about it!!

@mumtobbk I know how you feel, I’ve been obsessing over it since I had my second. He’s now 14 months and it’s not gone away so I think it’s right for us. We’re definitely more in the definitely not trying not to phase, I don’t want to start properly trying and getting obsessed with OPKs etc like I did with my others (yet)

@Springbaby2023 that sounds like it's been long enough for you to know what you really want as you've had good time to really think about it! Will you test?

@mumtobbk Wow congratulations!! I can imagine how you feel but I’m sure the shock will wear off and you’ll get excited. We tried for the first time last month and yet I am still constantly agonising over whether it’s the right thing to do or not. A third seems such a big decision for some reason. Hope you’re feeling ok.

Thankyou @Springbaby2023 yes indeed it is a big decision.. what are the main things that are holding you back?
