Baby Fever Tips

Hey all

My boyfriend and I have discussed for the past year about when to have kids after I came to the realization of what I want in life. So the original plan was after I graduate college in May 2022. Then we both got excited and moved it up and further incentive when I realized I’ll be graduating this December. We agreed on Once in July for his birthday and then seriously try in October. Well July got changed because we want to get the house renovations and furniture stuff completed a bit more. I’ve also gained weight(which he doesn’t care about) but I do and it’s affected my outlook on myself. So the time is good for me to work on myself. I know it makes reasonable sense to not try for baby before October but the instant gratification(of at least trying) part of my brain is having trouble with waiting until October. I tried avoiding it which only leads to me obsessing over everything baby from clothes, food, and education. I just yearn for it more.

Tips on how to stay focused and not obsess over it until October since it isn’t far away?

Thank you
