I want a boy. I'm too scared that if I have a girl she would end up like me, plus I adore my nephews.
I woud like to be able to breast feed (I know this isn't going to happen but I can wish right?)
I want h to get over the idea of having a Goddess themed name if it is a girl, actually now that I'm really thinking about it I think I want a boy more so I don't have to have this argument.
I would like to have 2 kids
I'd like to be able to have my dream job and be a huge part of my kids lives.

I want one healthy kid. I agree with the never getting thrown-up, peed, or pooped on. If we have a boy we are getting those little cup things to cover the penis when you change the diaper. Healthy and easy pregnancy.

Sorry if you have mentioned it before, I don't recall! What are his ideas? Could they have a twist to make them masculine and something you like? After I have the baby I'm going to have to start taking the meds for my brain tumor again and I can't breast feed with it. He doesn't have any real ideas. He just thinks it would be neat if we have a girl to name her after a goddess because my sister and I are named after goddesses and he wants to carry on the "tradition"

Yup, some of those are possible dirrtybutter. I want: - one more healthy pregnancy - I want it to be a twin pregnancy (one of each) - I want to post-pregnancy breastfeeding to take away all the BC weight that I haven't been able to shed since coming off the pill - I want H to agree on a boy name that isn't Dominic. It's not that I don't like the name, it's just too close to Nick, DS' name Cross it all for me ladies. My clock is ticking. I have heard that breast feeding sucks the fat off of the body! I agree that Dom is really close to Nick. Twins! <3 Fingers are always crossed for you!!! I'll never be sprayed with baby body fluid, right? DD peed on me when she was just a week or so old. I was giving her a little sponge bath and wrapped her in a towel and carried her to another room. She peed all down my shirt. Other than that, I've only had to deal with spit-up. Fingers crossed BB2 is so kind.
My wishes/wants: -I really hope for H's sake this baby is a boy. I don't really care either way, but I know he really wants a boy and this is our last child. -I want this baby to look like me. DD looks just like H. She doesn't resemble me in the slightest. -If I decide not to breastfeed, I want the nurses and family members/friends to keep their mouths shut about it. -I want BB2 to be a good sleeper. DD has never been a good sleeper. She's 3 and still almost never sleeps through the night. I want one of those babies that starts sleeping through the night at 2-3wks, scaring the crap out of mommy. -I want to find a job with enough flexibility that I can take off time for my kids when needed.

Same here. I am glad my friends that have kids did not breastfeed, so I know I will have their support when I complain about my mom hating the fact that I will not be bf.

I always get super pissed when people are shamed for not BFing. I did BF, and I ended up loving it, but it was stressful at first and my motivations for doing it were not "health and bonding" but "JFC formula is expensive and I am cheap." I imagine that would be flame-worthy among the "breast is best" crowd. Everyone has different reasons as to why they do or do not BF, and as long as the baby is being fed properly, who the fuck cares, honestly?This is how I feel exactly. I didn't breastfeed with DD. I tried, but the medications I had to take after DD was born dried me up. I stressed myself out trying to constantly pump to keep my supply up. It was exhausting because I was so sick on top of taking care of a newborn and trying to pump. DD was getting formula from day 1 because even with the pumping I wasn't producing much. The day I decided to give it up and just do formula was so freeing.
I'm still on the fence about BFing BB2. I know it will be MUCH cheaper, but I'm just not sure. I think the decision would be easy if I didn't feel like I was SUPPOSED to breastfeed. I need to decide before BB2 is born because if I choose formula I want to have the confidence in myself and my decision to not be intimidated by hospital staff.

I love this thread!
I want a quick and easy delivery. I want BF to come easy for baby and me. I want cloth diapering to work well and have everyone on board who cares for baby when I go back to work. I want 4 kids. 2 Boys & 2 Girls with any 2 of them being twins. In a more realistic world where we will probably have 2 kids, I really want at least 1 girl.

In a perfect world, I would have 1 boy & 1 girl (boy oldest). I would have the easiest delivery that will not scar me or H for life I will have all the drugs so I do not feel a thing-- I am seriously terrified of the idea of child birth. I hope I never have to experience a "blow out" I hope I do not strangle my MIL once we do have kids..."her ways" are waaaaaay different from what H and I will do. I would really like H to stop teetering on when we will start TTC. There are all these things he thinks we have to do before we have kids, and in reality it will never happen so he needs to let some of them go--we are not getting any younger.
