Is anyone already thinking of having another? It hasn't even been three months and it's as though I can't wait to do it all over again. Anyone else feeling the same.
For those ladies who have 2+ children, how far apart are they spaced? I was thinking that I'd like to try again in two years or so.
congratulations on your LO. I had to post a reply because everyone thinks i am bonkers!
my little boy was only 3 months old when i found out i was expecting again - it had taken us 2 years to have him and so our 2nd was a complete surprise. My daughter is now 1 (my son is 2) and we are ttc again. hope this makes you feel a bit more "normal"!!!!!!
we have had this talk many times over the past few days, im still really struggling as to what to do.
Jase, Charlie and Ethan wasnt another, i do one min, then i dont the next min.
I really dont know what to do, Jase has cancelled his snip so im pleased about that, since its been cancelld i feel alot more relaxed about it, so maybe we wont try just yet, just dont know how long to wait untill we do, i dont want to get some life back(by that i mean full nights sleep more inderpendance etc) then have to give it up to have another baby, so i think i might as well do it now, but then i think that it will be to much and i want to enjoy Adam more.... confused!
EDIT: it took a while to get Adam so it might take a long time again, plus we are so tired at teh end of teh day that we go striaght to sleep most nights lol
think maybe we wont actively try but not prevent and just see what happens
Well, I was only going to have one child...and that was it! My first one came along and then I thought, well, she really should have a sibling. What if she was left all alone in the world....at least she'd have someone! When she was nine months old I became pregnant again. My daughter and son are 18 months apart and have always been very close. Sure, they bicker but they love each other to pieces.
The first few years can be quite stressful with two young ones, but you manage. And, eventually, you have more time to get things done as they keep each other occupied.
But we have to wait 1 year before we can start trying again after the c-section...
I feel sad about it... but I also feel good about waiting too as sometimes money is a stuggle with only MA and child benefit being the only money I have coming in at the moment and then over half goes on paying my loan, car insurance, and my phone bill. Then the other teeny weeny amount I have left I have to buy food, nappies, milk, diesel etc...
So perhaps it is better to wait get some more money under my belt and then have another... and I dont ant to miss out on Olivias first years

Did your doctor tell you that you had to wait 1 year before trying again? Just curious.
I've had C-sections with my prior pregnancies. After my daughter was born via emergency C-section, I became pregnant with my son when she was 9 months.
I suppose they say to wait so that your body could get back to normal and heal before getting pregnant again. Is this the reason why one should wait a year?
On another note, I feel a bit bad about my second child. With my first, I kept a pregnancy journal etc. However, because my daughter was still a baby, I didn't have time to keep any record of my pregnancy with my son

Yeah Ive been told to wait a year because the scar tissue and if I do concieve I have a very high rate of miscarriage because its hard to attach to the scar tissue and stay there, I think I ve got that right. And also for my skin scar to heal so it wouldnt be damaged by stretching.
