Most of you know that we have been trying since Griff was 9 months old and he is now 15 months old, hmmm. Don't know what that's all about! I was so dead set on having my babies 19 months apart but obviously that didn't happen. For the first few months that we tried I was so worried and stressed about it. Then when it wasn't happening I started using ovulation predictors and when that didn't get me pregnant I moved on to basal body temperature taking. I don't even want to begin explaining that process, ughh. Anyway, now that Griff is older and harder but more fun, I am kind of over even trying! I am actually kind of terrified to have another one. I also no longer care what the age difference is. If Griff is the only baby I will ever have, I will be okay with it! I am also starting to rethink the number of kids I want to have. I am thinking maybe two? We will see...I am not getting any younger! Pregnancy and breastfeeding are the two hardest things on the planet! Anyway, I am pretty darn sure I don't want another October baby so we need to stop trying right NOW. I don't want to have the same exact experience again. I also don't really want a November or December baby. Too many holidays haha :) I don't want to be having a baby on Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Year's. So I am thinking we are going to quit trying until April, May, June..something like that :)I am excited for another little one and sort of excited to be pregnant again but I think I can relax and stop thinking about it for now.

yea! That's when we're going to start trying again! I am like "RYAN we need to be extra, SUPER careful during Jan. because I DO NOT want another Oct. baby!!!!!!!
YEA! So excited! :) Enjoy NOT trying for a few months!! :)
P.S. when I first read your title of the post- I was like HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLY crap- she's having another Oct. baby!!!!!!!!!!! hahaha....
I know how you feel- Some days I want another, and some days I am like Heck NO! I don't want to have a baby in the winter again at all. Up here you can't take them outside or anywhere until like, May. It SUCKS! I also thought I wanted 4 kids originally, and now I go back and forth between 2 or 3. Somedays even 1!
As soon as you relax about it, and feel like you aren't "really trying" I bet that is when you get pregnant! That is kind of how it happened for us!
i seriously thought you were going to say you were pregnant! when you are I hope I don't find out on the blog :)ha ha. it'll all work out the way it's supposed too! you guys are awesome! just have FUN trying! practice makes perfect.
I also think it might happen when you are not trying. I am sure it will happen when the time is right for your little family. I also agree that pregnancy and having a new baby is very hard on women. I remember thinking I would never have the energy to even play with Kaden or be semi-normal again! Just enjoy all your time you have to spoil Griff for now!
