Baby on the mind

mercedesbenz802 · January 2015

I can not get the thought of having another baby out of my mind. i really hope i am not the only one having this thought. My DH thinks i am crazy with what is going on in our life right now to want another on this soon.

Check out the 2U2 board. We had our two 18 months apart (DD was a bit of a surprise for us), but looking back, it's manageable and I love how close they are. I pick DD up and hold her in front of me and chase DS around the house and they both giggle like crazy. Melts my heart.

Thank you

I know how you feel. I absolutely loved being pregnant and the newborn phase. But at the same time I want to enjoy DS without worrying about another little one. I think a part of me would feel guilty if I got pregnant again so soon.

We are planning to start trying when DS is 9 months, assuming I get my period back by then. You're not crazy!

Nah totally understandable! If the hubs and I agreed, I'd definitely be right there with yah!

I think about it all the time. We're waiting until he's 1, but if I wasn't nursing I would be tempted to go for it earlier.

Not crazy!! I'm in the same boat and we would be trying right now if it hadn't been highly discouraged by our midwives due to my c-section. That being said we are only waiting until May to start trying again and midwives were ok with that plan. I loved being pregnant and I desperately want our LOs to be close in age and actually get along

You can get pregnant before your period comes back.

Having major baby fever. It took us 4+ yrs and ivf to get pg with ds and I'm already thinking about going back $:\$

I miss having her in the infant stage to cuddle, so those times it's on my mind. But I don't want anymore tenants in my uterus. Like... ever again. Lol

becominggold · January 2015

I go back and forth. I just got my period back, but I don't want to do anything to mess w breastfeeding until the one year mark. Also, I still don't feel like I have returned to normal physically. I still have 15 lbs to lose...ideally would like to lose 25 before becoming pregnant again. I need to feel well again first because i did not enjoy pregnancy and did not feel great during it, so i dont want to start already at a disadvantage. We are waiting on some news with DH job that will solidify our financial situation. I have a great part time job right now though...and would like to have #2 while I have that opportunity. I get overwhelmed with all the factors.

You're so not alone!! We went off birth control this month. We're not trying...and I think I'm going to see if I can figure out NFP for a month or two... but I'd be ok if I got pregnant next month.

My SIL is expecting her second in a month and has a one year old.... I've seen how hard it's been for her to crawl around with a huge belly after her DS and how tired she is. She has admitted she hasn't been able to enjoy the first year of her DSs life. Everyone's different I know.

I want to wait until LO is 2 to start trying and hope him being a little more self sufficient will help. I also agree with @addysmama222‌ and think it's hit or miss if they will have a close relationship and not much to do with how close in age they are. I was close with my sister when young but the teen years we weren't and until recently we've gotten closer again, we are 1.5 years apart. I have always been close with my brother who is 10 years younger than me.

@jenniferurs‌ I'm going to be totes nosy.. Have you been to the doctor yet? While I in no way want another for like 4 years, in weirdly jealous just because I loved being pregnant lol.

Not yet. First appointment is on the 22nd. You can live vicariously through me. For the good parts, that is

aly&sam · January 2015

I really want another but BF doesn't:/ I'll revisit the subject when DS is 1(:

tamarar5 · January 2015

Same as @Rosebean‌. We were actually on the same Feb13 and Au14 bmbs. Love my 2u2 but would I do it again? I'm too old for this most days... Lol!

I vomited all day for 8 months. Not doing that again any time soon.

RoccoBabyK · January 2015

I had an awesome and very easy pregnancy so it's easy to say yes in that aspect. And my labor being absolutely awful actually makes me want to do it again sooner. However, I feel like I want to enjoy just DD for a good while without adding in another just yet. But it is on my mind a lot!

This was me too and that was my mindset at first. Then I realized I'd rather just get all of the suckage out of the way, rather than fall back into some semblance of a normal routine and then have to go through hell all over again.

I definitely see your point! Keep telling me this, I'm a weenie.

We have 2 19 months apart. We stopped preventing at about this age and found out I was pregnant when DD was 11 months old.
