Is it TTC that's changed me???

[Pappadog]

Since my M/C I'm like most of you - just desperate for that BFP! I'm in my two week wait again and about a week away from AF being due and as usual I get all those little feelings that make me think, but we all go through that don't we?

Just lately I seem to want to be more focused on my housework which is not a usual thing for me. I don't think I'm pregnant due to this though. I have three beautiful Ex Race Horses who I love very much and a little Shetland Pony called Goliath, but just lately I've thought about giving up - I've been with horses for over 25 years now so why this? I don't think I'm down or depressed, but perhaps I just need a new lease of life or something?

Anyone else gone through this kind of thing? Is it TTC that puts this kind of pressure on?

Do you mean giving up the horses, or the TTC?!!

Horses - sorry

I think TTC is such a big decision in itself, it's no wonder it makes you think about the other things in your life ... you're probably wondering how you would cope with a little one and your horses, for example, which is making you then think about whether you could give the horses up, and so on. You've probably got a million things going through your head right now, and it's definitely normal to be thinking like that when your life could be about to alter big time! I'm sure that as long as you don't make any rash decisions, everything will be just fine

I used to own quite alot of pets this time last year (4 guinea pigs, 2 syrian hamsters, 2 dwarf hamsters, the cat and a cockatiel) but i started to think about if i could really cope with all the animals whilst also having a baby, the answer was no so i started to rehome some, i now have one guinea pig, a cat and a dog. I kept all the hamsters as they were nearing their lives anyays (proud to say one lived untill 5 years!).

Hi

I think you should do what you feel is right if your thinking about giving up your pets i would think long and hard as you might be able to do both and the horses are a big part of your life
Good luck hun
