I'd be prepping for going back to work and feeling unsure about it. Which is exactly how I feel. We decided to make sacrifices for the first year of monroe's life and then back to the grind until babe #2.
Thing is I have no idea where I want to work, how many days per week, how much I can stand him being with someone else during the day, or how much I'll appreciate my time alone?
I have a few friends who had their babes around a year ago, who are now announcing pregnancies, and I can't help but feel a little like I'd like to join them there. We still want a large family and are excited to expand. But it is not time yet. Due to all of the issues with my previous pregnancy we've been given a strict timeline on future pregnancies and I am finding it really hard to come to terms with right now.
I think a lot of it has to do with this amazingly interactive smiley, happy beautiful little man that I get to hang-out with daily. Watching him interact with other children makes me want them even more knowing how well he'll react to them.
Timeline is still in place and I am dealing with that, just thought I'd be a little honest about how I feel about this in this moment.

Curious how long you have to wait. I'm not pregnant, although I'm feeling the same draw as you, to be! I can't wait for Ev to be a big brother. :) We're waiting till atleast his first birthday to start trying (not sure if that's a mutual decision ;) )
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to get pregnant since Adele, who is now 9month old, was about 4 months but like you I really have to think twice before entering into another pregnancy. Needless to say I have a different issue to consider. I loved being pregnant and love being a mom but don't know what I would do without the help from my loved one's. Maybe one day I will say "screw it all" and just do it. Of course I do not recommend that to others.
