All I can say is yes its normal, I've been going through this for a the past year since Dh and I got married. Its only since last Christmas that I've had no doubts at all and finally accepted that yes I want a baby and now is the time to go for it.
It probably doesn't help that I'm a planner and babies are very difficult to plan for as you don't necessarily conceive when you want to, and once you are preggers they'll arrive when it suits them to. I think its a way of planning for mother hood with all its uncertainties and challenges
I'm with you sweatpea - I have feeling like that all the time it has really only been this year that I have had more times of wanting a baby than not so I guess that's a good sign.
For the second time today I am with you 100% sweetpea It's a HUGE decision and one I'm not taking lightly. I started this thread awhile ago that might give you some insight into how others feel about it.....
I am definately with you on this sweetpea, I keep thinking am I doing the right thing, are we really ready for this. It's such a life changing decison though I think it's normal to second guess yourself.
littlesal, i still feel the same way. A few things have happened since then namely i hurt my knee which isn't 100% yet and may never be and i have a predesopsition to hurting my joints i have ligamne laxity. I wonder if this is making me feel the way i do.
I am sure everyone has little doubts while they are starting to plan or think about a family.
I have been looking forward to TTC for ages, and now that is just about here I keep on thinking of things that DH and I normally do that we won't be doing once we have a family. But, the joy and the excitement of our own little person will far out weigh anything we might be missing from our previous lives.
I am soo glad lots of people feel exactly the same way I do!
Here I was expecting that everyone on here would have no doubts and be 'full steam ahead' so to speak...
Ill have a day where Im all clucky etc then the next Im thinking ooh an overseas trip would be nice in 6 months.... Im all over the place.
