So I have been ssoo excited for af to come and go so I can get on with my TTC journey... she came, is on her way out, and tomorrow would be the day I would start a new pill pack... since af started, I have been second guessing myself and my decision to try for #3... I absolutely want another, but I think I'm nervous After coming up with all the excuses in the world, I had made a new decision to wait until Jan., mainly because we're going to Disney World in Jan. and I wasn't too sure if I wanted to be pg for that... but then I googled going to disney world pg and read forums full of women who were pg when they went and still had a good time and didn't feel restricted... so I'm over that excuse.... Why am I suddenly so nervous?! I already have 2!! It is so much easier to have an oops baby!!

perhaps i will just let nature take it's course since I know deep down this is really what I want...

I felt that way when trying for Rylie and Seth and I don't really know why. Taylor was a NTNP for a few nights baby so I didn't really think too much about it since I was supposed to have a hard time conceiving anyway. With Rylie it was probably more "will it take me a long time to conceive like I was told? Did I just get lucky with Taylor?". With Seth I think it was because I know how busy I already am and how much work babies are, especially the more you have, so it was more "I can't believe we're actually doing this again and are we crazy" LoL. Just TRY and enjoy yourself if you can

I think my biggest problem is my negative thinking... I can't help but think I've been blessed with 2 healthy pregnancies, 2 easy deliveries, and 2 healthy boys... am I asking too much to have all of that a 3rd time???

I think I'll just go back to no pills, and just let whatever's gonna happen, happen!

You certainly aren't asking too much! I think it is totally normal to be a bit nervous. I was when we started ttc Charlotte. It is a big, life changing decision. I think for us it was just because we waited for so long and it was weird to finally give ourselves the liberty to get pregnant, you know? Like it was taboo or something. I'm sure I'll find a reason to be nervous about ttc #2 too.

If you are really that uneasy about it, maybe it is a good idea to NTNP? I'm sure if you do that for long enough you will start getting anxious and more ready to actively ttc.

I thought about it more and decided if i'm going to do it, the time is now! I was 4 months pregnant with DS#1 and we went to Vegas.... 14 weeks pregnant for DS#2 and we vacationed to Sesame Place (if any of you are considering going there, DO IT... DS wasn't quite 2 when we went and all 3 of us had an awesome time)... so the next LO deserves a vacation too

Thanks for the words of encouragement and support

i agree, NTNP sounds like a good starting point. i'm sure once you start getting more used to the possibility of concieving you won't feel as nervous. Plus you might get your sort of oopsie if you ntnp!

I guess there is so much uncertainty with becoming pregnant that it's natural to be nervous. We were pretty much taught that all you had to do was have sex unprotected and you got pregnant but we now know that it doesn't quite happen like that a lot of the time. I think that NTNP is a good starting point. Best of luck and I hope you get a BFP soon.
