DH just told me

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months
That he wants to start trying for baby 2 now. I was always thinking next year, when k is closer to 2. Yikes...will need to think/talk about this! I can see the draw of having them close in age (my sis and I are less than two years apart, and being done with the baby stage is appealing, but two seems like a lot right now. Hmmm. Anyone else thinking of trying now?

    Technically next year is a week away... Wink

    We're thinking not this summer, but next summer.  I wanted them 2 years apart, but would prefer to have a baby in the first quarter of the year. This summer seems too soon to TTC (that may change)...so that means next summer would put them 3 years apart.

    Either way, it's still pretty exciting.

    We're going back to our original plan of them being 3 years apart or more. We'll start trying close to Noah's 2nd birthday.

    We were getting used to the idea of 2u2, but it's still so scary that we're just going to hold off.

    Mine informed me we are going to start around his 1st b-day. I told him good luck with that. I don' know if I want to be pregnant again.

    We're going to address it around Jacob's first birthday, but if that's the case we won't start trying until at least later in the summer though DH thinks we won't be ready til 2011.

    we have two girls 17.5 months apart and I am so glad that we did it this way-hopefully the girls will be good friends as they grow up and we will be all done with bottles come the summer and we can do things with both girls instead of having a toddler and a new born...It is hard but I think that no matter the age difference it is hard...We are two and thru though...

    I stopped my BCPs for health reasons so we are going by the "if it happens its ment to be" frame of mind, I am all for it, we thought I was KU at the beginning of the month and both DH and I were sad when 2 test came back BFN. So we arent TTC but we are not preventing it either. I want kids close in age!
