    =) here are my middle of the night musings, whilst feeding my little girl.

    its very odd... i always wanted hundreds of children, and we will deff have more one day, but atm i am truely happy with just DD. I never thought id feel this way. after experiencing a want and a need and a longing for so long its really nice to feel content =) her and i have been searching for eachother for so long, and times when i was ready, she wasn't and vise versa, i really do feel complete with her. ive never felt this truely content before, because ive always just experienced that empty want feeling.

    does that make any sense? im typing one handed too... and it did come to me in the middle of the night.

    Just catching up. It's nice to have a few people around who understand.
    We no longer have any embryos left (as of about 5 months ago). I always wanted more kids, and i still do actually. I'd do it all again in a heartbeat still. But as time passes i'll get used to it. And i'm not sure if our relationship could cope. DH has embraced his new 'no babies' lifestlye somewhat! Nothing ever quite turns out as planned. I watch as my SIL is going through TTC with Turners Syndrome and i think how lucky i was really.

    My endo has gone mad though since breastfeeding stopped. Now, ironically, after TTC for so long - i just wish i didn't have to endure AF every month! I am now hating my 'fertility', ITMS.

    MadB - i'd stick with your current clinic.

    lise - my number 2 has his own plans when it comes to sleeping. It never seems to matter anymore. But it's tiring when they are so little. I feel for you!

    It's true that there are good points to not having babies. But that doesn't help much if you really want one. I hope it does get easier

    Happy Birthday to him JBM
    9 years.... sweet! If I were younger I'd go for 4-5 year age gaps, I reckon Get through the first hard years and into school, then go back again after some sleep!

    I'm not sure I would want to go back after sleep MadB, probably a good thing my boys are only two years apart

    Happy birthday to DS JBM, can't believe he's one!

    I figure I need the break before starting over again! It would be all-round awesome to have the baby and the sleep, of course....

    Hi Saffy - great to see you in the Parenting side! Congrats on your DD

    Yogi Bear - sometimes we get some chatter going on and sometimes its very quiet. DD is nearly 11 months. Time flies.

    How are you going TT40?
