Ladies, Please!

Can one of y'all please get pregnant already?!

First and foremost, I call NOT. IT.

It's just, I need one of you to, so that in fifteen months or so when I am ready to consider even the slightest possibility of having another child so that A doesn't end up spoiled or lonely or socially awkward, I'll have a good idea of what being pregnant and managing a newborn is like with a very active toddler and can make an informed decision.

So get on it, please :) Or shall we say, get it on, please. Ba-dum-cha!

*And yes, by informed I mean I want to watch one of you juggle a one-year-old, a huge belly, and the demands of recovering from childbirth/the sleep deprivation brought on by a newborn. I wonder why no one is stepping up to the plate after reading that! Ha!

  1. How about juggling a newborn, a 6yo, med school, life in general, and getting back in shape for the summer?!?! haha, that's my goals for the year!

  2. I would, but the doc sort of pt the kibosh on it. We'd love a second kid, and Marianne's about the right age at 18 months, but...yeah...the almost-dying on both our parts, the heaps and heaps of bills...*sigh*

    As much as J and I want another, I'm not convinced it's worth the risk...I'll probably go see an OB specialist if we decide to give it a try. If we do, I'll let you know. :P

  5. Whatever you do, don't let Drew see this post. He's already bugging me for another baby and I'm holding him off (for now!). I'd love for Asher to have a little, but can wait a bit longer! Someone else is welcome to go ahead. :o)

  7. Not it!!! LOL. I can't handle the financial impact another kid would bring right now. Gah, I'm just thankful I don't have to buy any more formula and that daycare costs went down $30 a week now that Riley is a toddler. Whew! I'd like to give it another year or two before we jump in that boiling pot again. :-)

  8. If I were 10 years younger, I'd definitely have another. But I'm old and tired ... one is more than enough for me!

  10. I guess I will step up to the plate here! I am totally willing to deal with everything if it means I don't have to have 8 years between my kids again. C is SOOO spoiled...and definitely has the only child syndrome. BUT...we have been "trying" since October. Hoping for one before E turns 2!!! Cross your fingers and say a prayer that we get a healthy pregnancy going soon :)

  12. I definitely, without a doubt, call NOT IT!! I definitely do not want Jack to be an only child because I am one and I hate it, even now. But I'm not even going to start thinking about it until he is 3. I'm hoping I can have another when he is 4. That way he's old enough to do things on his own and he can help out more. I don't understand the whole, "have them close together so that you only go through diapers, bottles, etc. once." I don't think I'll mind going through it all again but wouldn't want to have 2 in diapers at the same time. But, like I said, it's going to be a few years if at all!!
