• (later) 2006: Pregnant with second baby!  Still nursing first baby!

• (early) 2007: Stop nursing first baby!

  Buy brand new (non-nursing) bras! Preferably ones that are pretty and sexy. And maybe matching panties.

  I went through this same thing! I had my boys 11 months apart, and now that I lost all the weight and am feeling good, what do I do? We are TTC again!

  I am a glutton for punishment:)

  Ha ha ha, I love the responses. Sharon, your advice is great. I do need to do that. (Now if only I could find some extra room in the budget for it…)

  Amelia, wow, I have baby fever, no question about it.

  And yes, I am planning on going for that half-marathon in November, McKenna. Officially my training schedule starts next week. I feel very much like that’s on my to-do list for this year.

  Finally, Brittany, that’s awesome!! I hope it works out for you all soon. I am a glutton for punishment as well. For the first week after weaning my son, I was like, “MUSTGETPREGNANT NOW!!” But I’m trying to temper that with some reality.

  We shall see!!

  Omigosh! That’s a CRAZY timeline!!

  As for ‘now what?’…since you’re done breastfeeding, I say kick back for a few seconds and enjoy an Appletini or three!!!

  GOOD LUCK on the half-marathon! I was hoping to do the Philly half-marathon in November, but something came up that may prevent me from going for it. I can’t wait to read about your training and race day…

  Wow! I had babies in Aug 98, Jan 00, Mar 01 and my last Jul 05. After doing the three in a row, the last little straggler is a piece of cake! Good luck with the half marathon.
