Decided to TTC again

Danielle

Long post sorry. Little bit of back story> me and my husband have been married 3 years in August and have an 18 month old daughter and I have an 8 year old daughter that is not my husband's. The last couple of weeks have been really emotional for me , baby is 18 months old and I have been really wanting to start TTC again. Me and my husband have talked about is but never seriously (more in a joking/flirting way) . But this last week 3 coworkers have gone on maternity leave and I feel like everyone I know is pregnant and it had been hitting me very hard. We 100% plan on having at least one more baby but never set a timeline. Well today we took the girls to an arcade and hung out with some friends and when we where out I was fine but as soon as we where back to just us I was back to not feeling myself. My husband kept asking if I was alright all day . After the girls where in bed he sat on the floor next to where I was laying on the couch and told me he knows what is bothering me. He ask me If I feel like im really ready to handle a third child, all I could do was nod. He assured me that if I think its time that to start TTC that he is with me 100%. He even told me to make the appointment this week if I could (to have my IUD removed). I have an extremely hard time asking for things I want because of a past abusive relationship so I tend to just shut down when things bother me, I can't even begin to say how lucky I am to have this man. A man who took on a broken woman and a child to raise as his own and is willing to help me Express what I want and need when I am unable to ask. So we decided that I will start taking vitamins again tomorrow and then in a month I will make the appointment to have my IUD removed . Thanks for reading I just needed to post somewhere
