So my baby is 11 weeks old in Friday. :. I have been trying to convince DH we should get pregnant again August or September. He thinks I'm crazy.
My siblings and I are all super close in age. I work at a school so timing wise this would be great. I would have that summer off to be with my babies.
I also am afraid of being super sick and tired and not able to play with my LO while I am pregnant.
Why do I have such baby fever! The problem is my baby is sooo good and sleeps throufh the night, so I feel a 2nd wouldn't be too hard. Which I know is wrong and that one probably will be up all night or something.
Anyone else have the baby fever?
It also took over a year to get pregnant due to my pcos so I think that's part of my fear too
Oh, I have it, too. And DH wants another one soon, too, haha. I want them close in age, and we both want 3 or 4. I had a pretty uneventful pregnancy and DD is a great, easy baby.
Sorry...I'm not talking you down, haha, but at least you're not alone!
Ha I'm the exact opposite. Since DS has been such a handful, I'm thinking I may not want another one EVER! I originally wanted 2, but I'm now thinking 1 would suffice.
My older kids are 18 months apart. Our daughter was a super easy baby. We both wanted another right away. My doc had me wait 6 months because I had a section. We waited 10 months and got a BFP the first time! Our second is a boy but they are super close. We wanted four doorsteps...but it took 7 years to get a BFP FOR number three. It is fun to have th older kids to enjoy the baby this time. We had such a traumatic pregnancy and delivery but I would be lying if I said I would love to try for number 4!
oh, i am right there with ya! dd is about seven weeks old, and we'll be ttc again in sept! we want our babies close in age, and probably won't stop at 2
Oh, I have it, too. And DH wants another one soon, too, haha. I want them close in age, and we both want 3 or 4. I had a pretty uneventful pregnancy and DD is a great, easy baby.

This is me and DH exactly. I am at least rationalizing since this is our first that I want to wait until she is at least 6 months so we will have her whole first year to enjoy her, but we aren't exactly preventing it happening sooner than 6 months.
Yes, you are crazy! We might start thinking about it in another year or so, but not right now! Both my husband and I were 18 months apart from our siblings. I don't know how our parents did it! Our LO was not easy and the first 4-6 weeks were very rough. That might have something to do with it. I also want my body to take a break and for me to be able to get back in shape before putting the lbs back on. I am also focused on my career and want to achieve a few things before commiting to another one. I got preg right away so am not worried about it taking a long time.

Well, glad that if we couldn't help talk you down, we could at least help you plead your case with him, haha.

All are Welcome!
Oh you are so not alone! We have already started talking about baby names and lo is 2 months old today!
I think though for me it is because I have had 2 m/c AND it took so long to get pg because of my pcos.
Or maybe I just have perpetual baby fever... lol
