The WTT Chat Thread

Welcome to the chat

I think we are all super broody here, all just vaguely attempting to hold out until the "time is right" x

Hello, welcome xx

 

[Girly123]

I came off the pill, last pill was Monday 29th October, and now we are using condoms as protection. I know my OH hates condoms. Is it wrong I am secretly hoping he gives up with them and says stuff it NTNP? He joked the other day about just using withdrawl method and I said no as we both know u wouldnt stop urself and I wouldn't want you to and he was like true true but inside I was secretly thinking yes let's use that method (knowing he won't pull out). Is this really bad of me thinking these things?

Xx

 

[Princess81]

Nope lol xx

 

[Hunnie]

Well my blood test came back negative and I've just come on! So happy to see my period for once hahaha! I'm thinking against the coil now but definitely need to sort something lol.

 

[Hunnie]

I'll be here for years at this rate lol! X

 

[Girly123]

I haven't read back over all pages but if you don't mind me asking what are the brief reasons you are WTT at the moment?

My reason I guess is my partner. No well he wants to be married first and it would be ideal really. But we bought our first place together 3 months ago and have decent careers, been together 3.5 years so apart from marriage we are in a good place. Just he wants to wait arghhh lol xx

 

[pringle88]

I am waiting until July when my daughter will be 18 months old

 

[Princess81]

We're waiting as we have an 11 month old baby so I want to give him some more of my time, I need to go back to work to save for some more time off, I haven't convinced o/h yet (minor obstacle) and I want a summer baby this time x

 

[Girly123]

Excellent. Thanks .

So how old where you both when you had your first little one? Just asking a few people a the moment as I am 26 now and some people say I am way to young and others say 21 best age. What are your opinions? X

 

[Princess81]

I'm 31. Was 30 when lo was born but came off the pill when I was 28, I then found out I had polycystic ovaries so ttc was extended lol. I'm happy with the time if life I chose, we have been together nearly 10 years now, built our own house, have good careers and it was a case of now or never x

 

[pringle88]

I was pregnant at 22, had her at 23 and if all goes to plan ill be 25 when my next is born.

I don't think there is 'right' age tbh, I think it's when it feels right for you and your OH x

Hello and welcome

I too have an 11 month old so am waiting until the middle of next year to try again. So I've got a bit more time with just her.
I was 22 when I concieved and turned 23 a month after I conceived. I'm 24 now lol.
I don't think anyone can put a set age on it. It all depends on circumstances and whether you feel ready

Thanks for input girls.

Princess81 just out of interest when you came off the pill at 28 were you TTC straight away? If you were as it took a while due to pcos do you ever wish you started trying earlier? The reason I ask is the doctor has told me I will have problems and it could take several years and result in IVF at the end anyway. They said to try by the age of 27 and no later than 28 for me due to my history. I have come off the pill and now I worry that if I don't start trying soon I could always look back and regret not trying earlier and wondering what if (if that makes sense). Xx

 

[Princess81]

We didn't try immediately as my partner was in Afghanistan. But in any case I didn't have a period for a year so it made no difference. Age-wise I wasn't in a big rush so I was fine with it - don't get me wrong I'd have been happy still if we were younger but it turned out ok. Maybe if I'd had warnings like you've had my attitude may have been a little different though x

 

[Hunnie]

I was 18 when I got pregnant and 19 when I had her. I don't regret having LO at all I just regret the timing. In the space of 9 months we had to cope with me constantly being sick and unable to work, saving to get a mortgage, the stress of getting the mortgage and buying a house and then moving in and making it home all within a time limit and then a newborn baby arriving before we had even really settled in!

I want to wait to have another because I need to work for a few years to end up with a decent maternity pay and have the house finished being done up and then hopefully renting it out and buying another property closer to OHs mums and the area we want to ideally live in. I think I'd also like to go to Uni as well. I seriously think at this rate we are going to have a huge age gap lol

 

[Girly123]

I am glad to be off the pill, it is a start. However I wish we could NTNP just incase there was a slight chance and we end up missing it just because we were protecting.

At the same time I dread to tell my parents if I did fall pregnant out of marriage. They would support me ofcourse but the disappointment would be unbearable x

 

[Samsgirl]
