I'm NOT TTC, I just happen to keep finding myself over in this forum, for some odd reason.


Anyone else just hanging around, checking out the waters, thinking of taking the plunge maybe in '09, or whenever you finally get the nerve?

I lurk but never post. I have been trying to conceive so I love to come to see if anyone on the same cycle is announcing their due dates. I just found out we are expecting in Aug 09
: I just really love this forum so I will probably keep lurking!

I'm not trying to conceive. Not even considering it for a second
: But sometimes when I notice a thread in which someone is thinking they might be pregnant, I subscribe.
I get all excited for people. I just subscribed to this one for example:
http://www.mothering.com/discussions....php?t=1007803


But I don't want o crash the party either so I lurk and send positive thoughts.

So glad I'm not the only one! I think I'm just getting sort of nostalgic for the TTC excitement, and I want to share in it by lurking a little.

Tricia, your Haylee, Madi, and Hannah are the same age as my kids. Did you use to post on a Breastfeeding board back in 2000 and a Mormon Moms board?

HeHeHe, I lurk all the time. I want to be on the TTC band wagon, but DH does not want anymore babies. I just love seeing when mommas on here get BFP's. I get so happy for people when they get pg!! Maybe someday DH will give in and we can TRY to have another babe. All of our others were surprises!!!

Tricia, I suppose there are other LDS moms of five with a first name that can become Tricia. LOL. And yes, I have a 97, 98, 2000, 2002 birth close to yours. And let's not forget the long haired dachshund and toy foxterrier/jack russell puppy. Sollie needs a playmate.. want our puppy?

Too funny. I just started to lurk, because I'm having some sort of mental crisis on this issue. LOL. First I only wanted one kid, and I got it, and that was it. Right? Various issues after she was born just kind of confirmed that for me. But then DP kept half-jokingly bringing up wanting another child, and then I started actually considering it because apparently I'm insane. But... only after I go back to school and get my degree. Now I keep getting stuck on the subject in my poor head, and I haven't even started school yet.
There are sooooo many reasons not to have a baby anytime soon, so why do I keep thinking about it? I've even had dreams. dd sometimes randomly starts talking about a baby. Darn babies won't leave me alone. :p

I can't even imagine TTC, honestly. Even before I was pregnant with dd, I couldn't imagine actually planning for such a thing. I knew I wanted a child someday, but I also knew that it would have to be "an accident". heh. SO WHAT THE HECK.

Okay, sorry, had to get that out somewhere...

After all the help and encouragement I received during our TTC journey, I still peek in here a lot to check on everyone. I get excited to see people graduate, and I try to be helpful when I can to those that might have similar questions to what I had when i was starting out. We spent seven months on the TTC before we got our positive, so I know how trying things can be and liked hearing from people who had BTDT. So, I mostly just lurk, but will occassionally post.

Ugh. See, I've already changed my mind again. This is nuts. Maybe I should make my own crisis thread (or did I already take this one over? doh)

Maybe I should just become a nanny? Then I can have babies to ogle AND do all the things that I want to do for myself. Right?

I've also gone through a "maybe I'll adopt!" stage.

Halp.

I lurk.

I think I can officially come out of lurkdom now, as both DH and I are on the TTC train as of yesterday! It seems like it has been a really long wait to get to this point where we are both ready. I am sooooooo excited.

But yes, I have lurked for a long time!
