Baby 7 months and trying for another....

Question

My first baby is 7 months old now and I am already trying for another baby.....has anyone tried so soon for a second baby, and if so have you found that you have fallen pregnant quicker than the first time or around the same time, or longer!

I had heard that it's usually quicker the second time around but I'm not finding this to be the case, which is causing a little stress head like my good self to worry!

Thanks all....:o)

Answer 1

you should wait a least a year to have another. You need to give your body a rest. And if you have another. u will have two screaming babies.

Answer 2

well i didnt try to get pregnant... i was actually trying to avoid it but SURPRISE! i got pregnant when my son was 8 months old... i nursed him til he weened himself at 5 months... we thought we knew when i was ovulating but i guess and egg or 2 sneaked out a week early so now we are expecting twins likley the end of november, when my son is just shy of 15 months... i was hoping at least a 2 year difference, oh well :)

Answer 3

You go girl!  If you are ready for another baby so soon then more power to ya!  Just make sure your doc checks you out first to make sure your body is ready for it.  

Most people I know got pregnant fairly quickly when conceiving soon after the first baby.

Good luck to you and your family!  :)

Answer 4

i think u should wait it will be better for the baby ur body and less stress

Answer 5

My second cousin was pregnant at her 6 month check up! All went well.  But I wouldn't recommend that.  No two pregnancies are the same.  Some people have the first baby without a problem and never are able to conceive again.  If you can't conceive, just relax.  Maybe your body is trying to tell you something.
