Default TTC while breatfeeding my 8 month old

HI Ladies!

I'm so excited to have found this forum! A little about myself. I'm a 28 year-old stay-at-home mom to two boys. My oldest just turned three last month. My baby will be 9 months on the 17th of this month. I'd really like to have #3 in '09. I want to enter graduate school in the near future and need to consolidate my time at home. I've always wanted a large family (four kids!), but am realizing that I'll probably need to be content with three.

Anyway, i'm still breastfeeding my 8 month-old about three times a day. I don't want to completely wean him to get pregnant. He eats a lot of solids and rice cereal mixed with formula as well. I've had one post-partum period that came last month. But it was strangely light and came only 5dpo. I got a positive OPK last Friday, so we'll see what happens this month. I highly doubt pregnancy will occur, but I hope that my cycles will be getting more regular!

I''m looking forward to chatting with all of you!

Audra

That is awesome that you are ovulating so soon! Good luck! Are you charting?

Not yet, but I'd like to start. I'll probably start after AF arrives this month. Good luck to you!

Well, the fact you've had even one PPAF is probably a good sign that your fertility is coming back. Good luck with this cycle, and looking forward to getting to know you better!
