I feel guilty, I admit it. Since I went off the pill, I have been wanting to have sex more often than we used to. This is because I absolutely want to get pregnant! Joe is on his way home from work, and he was yawning, so I asked him if he was too tired to have sex. He immediately said that I only wanted to have sex because I want another baby. He didn't say it in a mean way; he was simply matter-of-fact about it.
Here's the funny thing though; in the process of going off the BCP to prepare for TTC #2, I truly have discovered how much I miss regular sex with my husband and how much closer I feel to him. Now that I am making more of an effort to have sex, I am realizing that it IS worth the effort, babymaking as a goal or not. So many times, I am just too tired or had a stressful day. When I am able to put all that aside and focus on J and I, things just seem to go so much smoother.
I am so hoping to get pregnant this time without months and months of trying. I'd like to conceive without all the months of getting AF and being disappointed. I know that I am probably setting myself up already for a bit of disappointment, but how do I prevent that? I am so incredibly ready for another child...how do I convince Joe that waiting a few more months is just too hard for me?? Have any of you been through this before? It seems like most of you have DH's who really pushed for Baby #2...I'm jealous of that attitude! LOL
Oh, in non-babymaking news, I was down .4 at Monday's weigh-in for a total of 16.4 pounds. I am back on track this week and have not snacked at all. I am hoping to be down at least another pound at my next weigh-in.

I've had that "you just want to do it..." sentence thrown on me before too. I wouldn't let it bother ya if he's saying he's wanting #2 as well! He just would rather do it when HE wants to not when YOU want to. I'm glad to hear you are doing so well with your weightloss!
I remember those days, too! Where Nate would call me on my unusual desire for sex at certain times on certain days. LOL. I guess it goes with territory. Sigh. Once you decide you're ready for the next baby, desperation creeps in!!! Here's to hoping it's quick timing like you want!!
Love,
Sara
