Pregnant with second way sooner than planned.

Hi mamas!

I just found out a few days ago I’m pregnant with my second, my son is currently 8 months old - as grateful as I am Im super overwhelmed with the idea of them being so close together, I really was hoping to have them more like 2 years apart.

Any encouragement / advice / experience of having two so close together?

TIA!

Jordann

    My kiddos are 13 months apart (ages 5 and 6 now). They are both adopted, so I can’t speak to being pregnant while taking care of a baby. As for parenting kids that close in age, there are certainly difficult times (having a two year old and three year old at the same time was tough), but for the most part I love it. They have a lot of the same friends now and they can do extracurriculars together, which is super convenient. And they definitely enjoy being close in age. They argue sometimes like most siblings do, but otherwise they are pretty much best friends.

    Hey! My twins are 6 months old and I just found out I’m 8 weeks pregnant with my second pregnancy, totally unplanned.
