OH GOD! So.... I looked at Lottie the other day as he was playing, on her own, and thought, you really do need a brother or sister. Then was at at SALT appt the other day when the therapist said does she have any siblings and I said 'no, but I think I need to get her one'!
Think that looking at it that way might make this 1 to 2 kids thing easier to get my head round. I really want another baby, just that very common and totally normal feeling of a) not wanting anyone else but Lottie in my life b) scared it'll be awful and I won't cope and so on, I'm sure most of you know where I am coming from. So the easiest way for me to deal with the whole being scared thing is to concentrate on the 'I'm doing this for lottie' thing.

So, what I wanted to ask was... I just had my 2nd period after coming off the depo injection which I was on since Lottie was born. I came on on the 10th September, so when is the best time to make sure I have lots of sex?!

Here's a wierd question - how do you make ttc fun? im finding that because i have am ttc im viewing it as a project and something to be pencilled in. am i the only one thinking this way?

I have never looked at the calendar or done anything with mucus. I know some people do struggle more than others and that's just horrible bad luck, but statistically, most women will get pregnant quite quickly if they just shag!

Don't know, that's why, until I find myself struggling to get pregnat i don't want to go that way. It's not the most romantic way to make a baby is it but hey sometimes it just has to be done! Good luck btw.

Aloha..... the problem is.... if you are tired all the time you might as well as aim for the right time to shag as these might few and far between

Yes we are going for that option, I've got two dds already and it took 2 days without contraception to conceive each one....dh was a bit disappointed, poor love...
