Ok ladies, the recap on me is that I was originally WTTC because of work commitments. I recently lost my position (not my job) and DH and I have had a lot of talks about what this means for us.
Well....we have decided to take the plunge and TTC next cycle!!!!! This is more than 6 months ahead of our original plan. I'm so nervous as I type these words and excited at the same time. We have decided that basically, maybe it wasn't a good decision for us to put our "family" plans on hold anyway for my career oriented job. I mean, there will always be demanding jobs. We have spent the last 3 years rearranging our plans to follow my career....and the plans to have a baby just keep getting bumped. I think our priorities have been backwards. Work will only get more demanding...and there really is no "perfect time" to squeeze in a pregnancy and a newborn. But, if we put family first, I think it will be more rewarding.
So, I had a ton of tests done last week to try to find answers from my losses. We should get the results back next week. If the tests all come back looking good, then we are BD'ing in June! (If anything comes up, we will just see a reproductive specialist first and then BD!!!). As soon as I get the results, I will let you all know and change my siggy from WTTC to TTC!!!

Congrats- When we decided to get pg for the first time with our daughter, we felt the same way. We kept planning around everything and everyone else. One day we said forget it- it was time to put our family first. We are so glad we did. We hope to be able to give our little girl a sibling soon.
Good luck!

I think you are making a wonderful decision!!!! I once read on a post "You will never be sorry you had a child, but you may be sorry you didn't" Hooray for making your own time table and not folowing someone else's!!! Good Luck!!!

That's great news! It's true... there's never going to be the "Right" time to have a baby. As soon as he or she arrives, the rest will fall into place! Good luck! I hope you get good results from your tests (kup) and we see your bfp soon!
