Oh geez...elle.jay 03-19-2006, 01:02 AM Okay, so my boyfriend just found out that his 19 year old daughter is a month pregnant. Now I am just freaking out because that makes him a grandpa!! And if/when we get married, I'll be a step-grandma!! Oh geeez!!! :rolleyes: I just felt I had to share that with the rest of you all... :o lj missymissus 03-19-2006, 01:39 AM I hear ya. Being a step-grandma is strange to think about. Momma Nessa 03-19-2006, 01:40 AM not as strange as being a regular grandma... Emzak 03-19-2006, 07:07 AM Wow. I see more DRAMA in your future! :( ((((HUGS)))) How's your bf taking the news? elle.jay 03-19-2006, 11:54 AM Wow. I see more DRAMA in your future! :( ((((HUGS)))) How's your bf taking the news? He's actually excited!! Its with the guy she's been dating for 5 years, so, its not really bad at all...so, he's excited, and I'm jealous. I want to be able to just "have" a baby...Emzak, you know what I mean!! lj missymissus 03-19-2006, 12:26 PM He's actually excited!!

I want to be able to just "have" a baby...Emzak, you know what I mean!! lj Thats great that he's so excited! I know what you mean about being jealous and wanting to be able to just "have" a baby. I'm in the same kinda position. Emzak 03-21-2006, 06:21 PM I want to be able to just "have" a baby...Emzak, you know what I mean!! Yup, I totally know what you mean. Have you guys talked more about it? We've been officially trying since Christmas and it's been stressful. Every time Aunt Flo comes, I get upset. :( missymissus 03-21-2006, 06:43 PM Yup, I totally know what you mean. Have you guys talked more about it? We've been officially trying since Christmas and it's been stressful. Every time Aunt Flo comes, I get upset. :( I bet thats really stressful. I'm going to be in the same place in alittle while. Although for me, its stressful right now just trying to decide when we want to start trying. fos4snt 03-21-2006, 07:32 PM Stress will be your biggest nemesis. My sister and her husband tried, literally, for over 5 years to have a baby. Got checked out, each of them, and were SO depressed. So much so, that my sister had a hard time talking to ME at all. :( Then they both gave up, focused on their careers and figured they'd never have one. Then she got pregnant. :eek: 18 months later, she's pregnant with TWINS. (GIRLS!!!) 3 kids, under 3 years old. :eek: ~phos Emzak 03-22-2006, 08:36 PM I would LOVE to have twins!!! Hubby thinks that our first child will be a girl. :) Missy, you and I should chat sometime. GriffinsSabinne too. We are all TTC. missymissus 03-22-2006, 10:20 PM Hubby seems to think we'll have twins, just because there havent been any in his family for awhile. He also thinks we're gonna have a girl, since he's had all boys. We did decide to get him a vasectomy reversal this summer and start ttc around august/september. Emzak 03-23-2006, 10:47 AM We did decide to get him a vasectomy reversal this summer and start ttc around august/september. That is so exciting!!!! Be sure to pick a specialist who ONLY does vasectomy reversals (i.e. do NOT just go to your local urologist or the one who performed the vasectomy). A VR is an extremely intricate procedure and you need a doctor who performs it on a daily basis. Some doctors only do maybe 1 or 2 reversals a month, yet they call themselves "experts". Puh-leeze. missymissus 03-23-2006, 10:55 AM We have the phone number of the guy who did hubby's boss's reversal. He says he's really good, does at least 150 a year. He actually taught many of the guys in the area. Hubby is WAY too careful with that part of the anatomy to go to anyone other than an expert. When he the vasectomy done, he went to the guy who was teaching other doctors how to do it, since it was a fairly new procedure 25 years ago. It is exciting to talk about it, now that its almost a reality. Right now, hubby wants to get it done, he just doesnt want to go to the appointment where they tell you exactly what they're going to do. He doesnt want to know. But yeah, just the thought that we're almost to the ttc part is exciting. elle.jay 03-23-2006, 04:03 PM We have the phone number of the guy who did hubby's boss's reversal.

My boyfriend needs a VR as well, and we've only brushed the surface about it...but...right now, money is our biggest obstacle. I just talked my boyfriend out of getting a Duramax Diesel that cost $9000 more than the truck we were considering getting. That and I know I don't want to have a baby right now. I'd like to get my career underway...I just want to know that I CAN when the time is right. missymissus 03-23-2006, 04:20 PM How exciting that you're actually really talking about it.

Its kind of scary to think that we're really heading towards having a baby soon, I sometimes think it would be nice to get the career going and all first. But, family is both of our top priorities, he's never really had one. So, we decided why wait, we CAN do it now. This way, we might be able to have a couple without him being a REALLY old dad while they're still pretty young. Emzak 03-24-2006, 11:35 PM Girls, I know what you mean. I, too, would love to wait a few more years so I can finish school and get somewhat established in a law firm. But with Hubby hitting 50, how much longer do we want to wait??? As it is, Hubby will be 60 when the kid is 10. :eek: elle.jay 03-25-2006, 12:20 AM Girls, I know what you mean.

As it is, Hubby will be 60 when the kid is 10. :eek: I know. That's the hardest part, isn't it? I feel totally pressured because I know my boyfriend doesn't want to feel old when our kid is still young. And I want him to be a part of the baby's life... I'm not sure how he feels now that his daughter is pregnant. I know he still wants to have a baby with me, but...one of his kids will be younger than his grandchild. :eek: LOL...oh well. The things we do for love. lj missymissus 03-25-2006, 10:19 AM Having a kid younger than a grandchild does seem to take some thinking about. The one realy positive thing about having a baby with an older guy, is he'll retire fairly soon, so the baby will spend alot of their time at home with a stay at home parent. But, especially wanting to have more than one baby really does seem to put alot of pressure on to get things going soon, so the daddy will have a chance to actually raise them. SierraNevada 03-25-2006, 11:20 AM I was a step grandma. Its nice, you can play with them...load them up on chocolate and candy...be the favorite grandma...and then send them home to their parents!
