It's weird.
Before we got the coil removed and got a go ahead on the baby front, I quite possibly could have won an award for the most broody woman in my area, maybe even the world.
Even the word "baby" kick started the aching yearning for another child of my own. I'd see one little booty, and my mind would be on bundles of joy all day long.
Now, I see a baby and get a flutter of excitement in its place. It's butterfly inducing to think, that soon I'll have a precious little baby all of my own. A sister for DD and OH's other 2 girls (from a past relationship). It's so exciting, and its taking all of my might not to get carried away and start shopping and naming. Especially since I'm not even pregnant yet.
OH is getting excited too. He keeps making the odd comment about names, or "when #2 comes..." It's really endearing, because he doesn't get excited easily, or at least he doesn't show it.
We're still not mentioning anything to DD, because we feel she's too young to have the excitement and worry. Hopefully we can keep it quiet for as long as possible when I do finally get pregnant. There's no need to stress her, or overexcite her.
So now, its just a case of waiting.
I had the IUD (hormone free) coil, and started menstruating straight after the removal, so we need to wait until that stops and then we can do the fun part (insert blush).
Here's hoping our wait is a short one, the excitement is killing me.
