I swear I could have written that myself! We struggled to get pregnant, even going through three rounds of insemination. We finally got pregnant on our own. When we started thinking about having our second, we knew that it had taken so long with the first and we wanted our kids around two years apart. We started thinking about thinking it and wham, the first try I was pregnant again. Our kids are a week short of sixteen months apart. My oldest is now twenty-one months and we're in the midst of toddler hell. I enjoy reading about other people out there in the same predicament, it helps me stay sane! I can't wait until my kids can play and entertain each other, I know that's when it will all come together and the closeness in age will pay off. Thanks for the post!

I love your blog! I have a 9 yr old boy, 18 mo girl, and am expecting my third (another girl) in December. We also tried for over a year to conceive our daughter and suffered a miscarriage. We knew we wanted a third and I wasn't getting any younger so we decided to "not try but not prevent." Very unexpectedly I got pregnant immediately with our third. I've been babysitting a friend's baby three days a week which has been awesome practice but the idea of leaving the house however still scares me. Also my girls will have to share a room so I'm not sure how that will work. I very much appreciate all the advice and understanding. Thank you!

My sister and I are baby bunched--18 mo. apart with a brother 4 1/2 years older than me and 6 years older than my sister. When my husband and I got married, we got pregnant quickly. My OB joked that my husband had super sperm. Because my mom struggled with fertility issues, I figured our first speedy conception was a fluke--it wasn't and our 2nd son was born 18 mo. after our first son. Fast forward 3 years and I am due (hopefully!) within the week with our third. Her conception, although not long by many books, took a lot more time. It was all I thought about. I finally one day just put away all of the fertility charts and then we got pregnant.
Now there will be a 3 and 4 1/2 year difference between baby girl and her two older brothers. Although I worry about there being a bigger age gap between baby girl and her two older brothers, I am glad that fate had us wait to have our third. I love that the boys are so close and their favorite part of their school days is seeing each other on the playground. I wonder if our daughter will feel left out. Maybe we should try for a 4th? Nah....my husband has promised me a new wardrobe after nursing if I promise this is our last. Sure, honey...can you put that promise into writing?

My husband & I tried to get pregnant & after many months we went to a doctor & he said basically my eggs were 'old' (I was 36 at the time) & it would be next to impossible to get pregnant without fertility help. We decided against fertility treatments & decided to adopt. We met our daughter in Guatemala in May 2007 when she was 3 weeks old but had to leave her there untill the process was finished. The process was long & hard. In December 2007 we found out we were pregnant. In early march 2008 we were given the ok to go pick up our daughter & bring her home. I found myself preparing 2 nurseries. Our daughter adjusted beautifully & her baby brother was born a month early in July. I love being a mom but it has been quite the culture shock. I worked full time as an accountant until Feb this year. Now I have the hardest job I could imagine. With 2 I have found routine & schedules are my life savers! I feel so fortunate but also often overwhelmed. I can't wait untill they can interact with eachother & I look forward to each day since they are changing so quickly. It really is a miracle!
I LOVE this site! It really helps to hear that I am not alone & that is will get easier:-)
