Thank you all so much for your support and thoughtful responses.

little_O: DH says he wants to wait, but we do both want another baby. He's also feeling overwhelmed with everything we're managing at the moment, not the least of which is feeling like we don't have a real "home" yet. But he's open to discussing it.

OP, Mumma T, chody47: I do agree with you. "Planning" a pregnancy and a baby is really up to mother nature, so who knows what will happen with TTC this time around? I think if it took longer than with DS (we were lucky and fell pregnant the second month of trying), I'd always wish I had stuck to my original plan and TTC now.

MissesMac: I think in all scenarios, a baby would give me fulfillment and joy and focus. I felt with DS, that once I fell pregnant I was so focussed on him that all the other "life stuff" became trivial and nothing mattered more than being a mum. Thank you for reminding me of feeling that way.

Reet: I think that's a beautiful way of looking at it. And I've also just looked at my calendar and I was due for AF yesterday... I've been so busy and distracted I didn't even realise. I've been a couple of days late before and we aren't trying yet (using rhythm method/withdrawal/occasionally condoms for contraception) so I don't think I'm pregnant... What are the chances, really?!

Thank you all again for your posts. You've been such a big help.
