Introduction

Current status: married 30 somethings, double income, no kids, want kids.

After much discussion we’ve decided we’re going to go for it. Next year – aka in one month’s time, we are going to start trying to conceive. So I thought I’d blog about it.

Here’s some background info about our situation. We’ve been together nearly three years, married 10 months. We’re both in our thirties so we don’t have all the time in the world. Neither of us have had children before. We both have good jobs but quite frankly, I’m ready to take some time out to be a stay at home mum.

Recently we decided to shelf buying a house in favour of starting a family first so as not to increase the pressure/stress we would be under – after all we can buy a house any old time, have a baby, maybe not.

So here it is: us trying to have a baby!
