I want more, DH doesn't-anyone else? - Page 3

Woo-hoo Keri! How exciting for you! I hope you get a new little bean soon. Sounds like DH is really coming around.

Now I'm just waiting to ovulate so that we can TTC DH asked me the other night when I would be "eggy!"

I hope everyone else gets the babies they wish for as well.

Thanks Jane
Don't wait too long... DD#2 was conceived when we had 'relations' on day 6 and I ovulated on day 11 so you never know

Just speaking FYI (excuse me if you already know). The few days just prior to ovulation (as much as up to 5), the day of and the day after ovulation offer the most potential for conceiving. The mucous you secrete prior to ovulation supports the movement of and the life of sperm. This is why the days prior to ovulation can lead to

Good Luck

politically incorrect

I know this probably seems a bit terrible. My dh and I had our first ds by accident. After 4years I really wanted another baby, and our ds wanted a brother or sister. Dh agreed that once he got promoted at work, we could have another. DS 2 was born 6-14-05... and dh, who never wanted kids, is open to having as many as i want. I know this is maybe a bit old-fashioned, but it works for us. I try my best to make dh's life as easy as possible. I work part time to contribute about 20% of our annual income. I do all of the cleaning, all of the weekday cooking, all of the errand running. I am the only one who has ever gotten up at night with our children. I try to keep our romantic life active(even when i was very pg)... in short, I try to make life very smooth for him so that he will be happy and, this is the terrible part, willing to do what I want. Not to say I sacrifice my happiness- I love my work, I love being with my kids, and I do get time of my own ( I hire a babysitter if I want to meet a friend, or only leave when baby is napping, etc.) Dh loves being a dad, but he does watch them when I work so I try not to give him kid care... I just think that if he's happy, I'm happy. (And thus the little ones are happy....)

Oh yes, definitely! I'd actually explained to him about EWCM, and that's what the "eggy" was in reference to! It works for both meanings, I guess.

In any event, we're "practicing" while we wait....

I think it's wonderful to have more children but yours baby is so young
to my mind it's better to wait for a while and then ... maybe he change the mind

I would like one more, DH is done. I go back and forth actually ... but deep down I know someday I want another. Maybe as our two get older he will miss that baby stage .. or maybe he will be glad its over ... and maybe I will ... who knows.
