Wanting another baby

Faith 21Faith 21 member
in Babies on the Brain
I have a 3 month old and I am already wanting another little baby. I am not sure how my husband feels about bc I am afraid to ask really. I know my family does not approve. I just enjoy being a mom so much and want to be pregnant again and feel the excitment that comes along with it. I want a little girl so bad.

    I think everyone with a baby goes through this to an extent. Trust me..it will pass. But a good starting point would be to sit down with your SO and talk about when you each would want another baby. Having a solid plan/idea about when you can start trying for another will help you too. GL!

    I felt like this right after C was born. Now that number 2 is cooking, I've decided that if I ever want to be pregnant again, someone needs to slap me.

    Enjoy your LO for now and think about number 2 in a little while. It's so much different to be pg and have someone to take care of.

    Just my 2 cents.

    I think some of you got this wrong. My little boy is my life. My everything. He is what makes me so happy and NOTHING will change that. I just want another little one that's all. Oh and if I have a little boy then it was ment to be and I will be thrilled to have another little boy. Little boys smile and are so funny to watch. What I mean is I would like a little girl so I could experience bows and dresses and stuff. Not that I don't want a little boy. I don't think I am being all about me. I want my son to have a sibling close to age.

    WE have are finances in line. We have anything and everything we need. The only reason my family does not want me to get pregnant again is because my hubby and them dont get along all the time. Not because they would not like the joy of a new baby.

    I think a lot of people feel this way when your Lo is so young. It is a lot of work with a newborn but once they become crawlers or walkers it is a new aspect that I found to be a lot more work. I couldn't imagine having a newborn and a Lo who just started to get on the move and was into everything.

    am I not allowed to want another LO in our house?? My little boy is more than I ever wanted and I am absolutly proud and happy that I had a little boy and that I am his mommy. I just would like a little girl next time I am pregnant so I have the best of both of best worlds. I think you did read my post wrong and took it the wrong way. Even if I had another little boy. I am okay with that. They are wonderful. What I am saying to sum this all up is I just miss being pregnant and I want another baby regardless if it is a girl or boy. Hope this clears it up.

    No I just don't want people thinking I don't love my son and that he is not good enough bc that's not the case and let them know that they read my post in the wrong way. That is all.

    OP you sound like you're 12. All people are saying is enjoy the baby you have for now. You're still a new parent. If you really want another baby right now, talk to your husband. This has to be a joint decision. You have to talk about finances and the logistics of 2 kids. 2 is a different story than 1.

    I think having children close in age because you want to be pregnant again is a bad idea. While there are many benefits of kids close in age, it's not a decision you should make for that reason. I think a lot of women with babies your age miss being pregnant--after all that was your identity for nearly a year of your life and now that pregnancy is over/brand new baby is not so brand new you miss that excitement. Since this is something that you clearly didn't talk about prior to having kids, I would give it a few months and see if your feelings change before addressing this issue with your DH.
