Waiting before getting pregnant. Dealing with the wait.?

I am studying for the next year and a half. I am married and 26 and I am keen to have a baby. I don't want to get pregnant just yet but I can't stop thinking about it. Why is there only literature about ovulation and waiting for pregnancy results and what you need to do pre-conception? All I am looking for is something to read that can tell you how to put this biological clock on hold until the planned time arrives, where is it? Good luck to all those trying!

    I know exactly what you mean. I'm going through the same sort of thing. Me and my partner are in a stable longterm relationship and recently I've been obsessing about babies. Everytime I'm anywhere near when I should get my period I start wondering what would happen if i just didn't get it this month and then when i do get it i'm always a little bit dissapointed!

    My partner is really understanding (and used to me being insane and obsessive!!) so one thing he's helping me do is start to look at baby things. Not with the intent of having one now but because we know we want one early next year, so just looking at the price of things and starting to work towards stuff- saving up is a big part of this. Knowing that the pram you want cost £200 and a cot and mattress another £100 makes you think that maybe saving and waiting is a really good idea! We're starting to put £20 a month aside from now on- this means that I can see the money growing and I know we're working towards the goal. I don't think theres any way to stop yourself from thinking about it and waiting for it but, for me atleast, saving makes me feel like we're at least heading in the right direction..

    Hope you're feeling better and if you ever wanna chat don't hesitate to email me!

    When you can't get pregnant, and things look good from the outside, it can be extremely frustrating.

    The first thing to consider is how long have you been trying. About 80% of couples will get pregnant after six months of trying, and about 90% will be pregnant after 12 months of trying to get pregnant. Anyway this is a great methid to get pregnant fast https://tr.im/a276e

    i might want to watch for yet another 3 hundred and sixty 5 days because it particularly is how lengthy it takes the body to heal.yet,in case your physician tells you very a lot earlier than that then bypass for it. yet,make sensible you supply your body some time to heal. you'd be very weak if, you've been to grow to be pregnant so quickly.
