Congratulations! My kids are 14.5 months apart and I have really enjoyed it so far. I honestly think that it is a good age gap because the older one is still quite young and ignores the baby when he/she arrives.
I didn't have a tough pregnancy with either child, so the hardest part for me was the fatigue. I just slept whenever my son went down for a nap.

ITA. Mine are 14 mo apart, and pregnancy kicked my a$$ but you just do what you have to do. I developed hypothyroidism while pg with #2 which was the worst fatigue I've ever experienced. DH was super helpful with #1 and being busy with #1 prevented me from having time to dwell on how miserable I was. Congrats!
It was not bad at all for me. I was on 17+ weeks of bed rest with my first. I was just really scared I would be put on BR again. But I was not. I was just on "Light duty". But it was still fine for me. My kids are just 12 months apart so my oldest was still little. I will say the hardest thing for me was having to carry her up the stairs but that was only the end. -
Congrats! Honestly being pregnant with a LO at home wasn't that bad... 2u2 hasn't been that bad either. Like everything you will have good and bad days. H&H 9 months:)
We are ttc and I was wondering this myself! I am very excited about getting pregnant again and having children close together in age, the only thing I'm worried about is the fatigue, especially in the first few months!
A few of the pp said that they napped when their LOs napped... but what about those of you who were at work? I go back to work in May (when DS will be 6 months old) and I am nervous about getting back into the work thing, not having a lot of time with DS and being first trimester exhausted!

Welcome and congrats!
I didnt think being pregnant with an infant was all that bad honestly. I napped and rested a lot when he napped.
