Babies: 0 - 3 Months

I want another baby :-X!!

I'm really hoping this feeling goes away...because I had a rough pregnancy and a pretty hard delivery and yet I still want another one.

We are both "ok" with one, but we would rather have two.  I don't know if I should just get my IUD put in at 6 weeks..or use condoms..or let nature take it's course.  We had to take fertility meds to get pregnant so it might not even happen on it's own.

I'm hoping this is just a phase and soon I will be completely happy with our family of 3 (+3!)

Anyone else feeling this way?

  • I would love a 3rd right now but I just couldn't handle 3 at the moment so we will wait until DD is a year to start trying - only 7 more months!! LOL.

    Personally if it took fertility treatments to get pg with your first and you would like a 2nd - I would honestly let nature take it's course and see where it takes you =)

    I got my BFP for DD when DS was 5 months old and did not go back on BC after having him, so it still took several months of trying. 

    GL!!

  • I think if you used fertility treatments with your first you should definitely just let nature take it's course if you'd be thrilled with more.

  • Wow, you are awesome!  

    I had a great pregnancy and delivery and we are still not sure if we want another one.  Definitely not at this time!  Our decision is more financial and the fact that dh has three kids (who are teenagers now) from his previous marriage AND he says that he's too old to do this one more time...he'll be 40 next Sept!

    Personally, it's too soon for me.  I'd like to enjoy dd and at the same time I'd like for our kids to be close in age, but if they are 3-4 years apart that's pretty close in age also.  

    GL with your decision.  Like the pp have said, I'd begin to try now naturally.

  • DH and I always planned on having ours about 18 months apart, so we will most likely try for the next starting this spring and summer.  If we have a girl, we'll stop at two.  Even if we have another boy...I might want to stop at 2.
  • After this newborn stage, I don't know if I can handle another one! I just imagine this newborn exhaustion and energy drain with a toddler running around.

    We always planned to have two but now we're going to play it by ear.

  • My brain is telling me to get the IUD at 6 weeks..but..Dh is like we can always just use condoms if you're not sure.

    I was an only child so I have no problem with it, and I know that 2 years apart won't be that bad.

    I don't know whats wrong with me, i think it's just horomones!

    I do want to enjoy every minute with Peyton as well and not cheat her out of anything.
