Looks like I'm *oficially* joining up here too! DH and I had a sort of "reaffirmation" talk about our desires for our family... we hadn't talked about it since right before Eliya was born... and we both still agree that we should leave our "birth control" in God's hands... we're going to try for another now.

Watching how close the twins are makes us wish that the others were closer in age; granted, Emma and Helen (the two oldest) are very close even at two and a half years apart. Anywho! I'm excited to be on this journey... a lot has changed in my body with this past pregnancy and recovery, I'm unsure of how long it will take us to have a BFP but I wanted to share this with you all~

I'm excited to see how things progress! I want to start charting, but I need to buy a thermometer! Do I have to buy a special one to track my BBT temp? Or will a regular oral thermometer do the trick? I have *a* natural family planning book (forgot the name) but it isn't as good as what I've heard about TCOYF~ One of these days i just need to hunt down a copy of that. Anywho... off we go! :)

You need to buy a basal body thermometer. It's like $8 or $9 at walmart.
Here is a copy of TCOYF for $2.10 plus media mail shipping. Its used but in acceptable condition. http://product.half.ebay.com/Taking-Charge-of-Your-Fertility_W0QQitemZ340925609837QQprZ1245772QQtgZvi details

Wow, Jen! That's exciting...it's so great that you and your hubby are on the same page about babies. That doesn't seem to be the case over here but God is bigger than that:)

Well, Jill, it wasn't always so... it took God speaking to hub repeatedly for his present state of mind to come about~ It was the DAY before my tubal that he came home and said, "Let's try for one more..." That was pre-twins, and the rest is history~ ;) I just kept praying that if *MY* heart was the one that was right, that the Lord would change Tommy's, and if *I* was wrong, that the Lord would change mine~ Ultimately, I wanted God's will done and I wanted peace~ I'll pray for you, Jill!!

That's so exciting, Jen! We feel the same way about having babes close together....ds1 and dd are so close! They are 16mths apart. Dh and I would like another close in age to ds2, but we are not quite ttc yet. Both because my body is not ready and it depends on the day of the week whether or not dh thinks he wants another. lol. Anyway, sorry to ramble. I'll be watching for your BFP! :D
