I miscarried MJ at 5 1/2 weeks on November 8th '06. My ex left on Jan 2nd '07. I started dating the most amazing man this year; we've been together for 9 months now.
My ex and I started TTC again right afer I lost MJ. I really really wanted DD to have a sibling not too far different in age. I worry that by the time DP and I are ready to have a child together that DD will be so much older than her sibling. She'll be turning 3 in February and DP and I have discussed that neither of us want children for at least another four or five years, partly because I've told him that whoever fathers any more of my children will be my husband/life partner. I want to have that committment before bringing another child into the world.
Despite this, I can't help thinking of babies and although I'm not ready for another one yet because of the way my life is going (financial situation improving, studying, more free time with DD going to preschool more, DP not living with me yet as neither of us are ready), there's a small part of me that can't help hoping I might be pregnant by accident.
I'm not sure whether this is because I'm still coming to terms with losing MJ or because of hormones/biological clock or what but its really confusing and I just had to vent.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
anyway-- what i am trying to get at is just because you feel the timing may be off in a few years, it's probably best for you, your partner, your daughter and the baby. it hurts i know...
p.s. i secretly hope i miss a pill or it doesn't work and i get pregnant too. we're only human.
