16 months apart and a little scared

Hi everyone!

Well just found out over the weekend that i am going to have another baby in Jan, I have to admit i am pretty scared. We were actually done having kids and we were talking about permanent birth control, and then surprise! So obviously i am a little in shock. I have an 8 year old boy, a 4 year old step son and a 7 month old son. Anyway just thought i would introduce myself and let you know what was going on with me.

 

Thanks

Leigha

    It will be okay!  Mine are 16 months apart to the day and I would do it again in a heart beat!  It's not nearly as bad as everyone made it out to be.  Sure, there are days it is hard but overall I love having them so close in age.

    Mine are 16 months apart and I love it! I found the beginning hard (first 6 months or so), it took me a while to get the hang of things with two kids. But now it is wonderful. My boys are 3 and 4 now and we have so much fun. They are best buddies. And it makes it a little easier on me because they play together and I can actually get things done!

    I wouldn't change it.  It was challenging at some points, but it has gotten awesome now that they are both a little older and really play with one another.  You'll be fine.  My husband was deployed most of my DS's first year and I still managed to survive the 16m age gap :).
