Having another baby?

Question

Hi I have just had a baby 14weeks ago, and i love it... I loved being pregnant and I love being a mum. I would really love to be pregnant again at Christmas time. I was wondering to all the mums out there with two bubs, what it's like, obviously more work, but did you manage better second time round? Any opinions/ suggestions welcome.

Answer 1

Why do you need another baby?

Or do you not think of the reason why, instead just do it till you can't do it anymore?

Answer 2

its a lot easier also having more than two kids are even better.. they got play buddy..

Answer 3

i had it worse with my 2 and Evan worse with my 3 rd we lost the 3 at 23 after birth! i have a vary hard time with 2 boys running around they ar 2 and 5 !!

Answer 4

I have 4 children and the 2 youngest have only 16mths apart and it was difficult. My son was still a baby when the youngest was born; he still woke at night (occasionally); still in nappies still needs his bottle; still needs to be in a pram.and he was extremely jealous we could not explain to him why he should not hit; bit and pull the bbaies hair. My other children are 3 years apart and that was fantastic because they understood more; they were more independant and no nappies. I think it is  nice that my son and daughter are close in age but alot of work. I think you should enjoy your baby because before having a second  theyare small for such a short period of time; it a shame to miss out on that.

well its normal to want to be pregnant i think its the excitement the support an love you tend to get an the attention an special treatment!!! i dont know how a second pregnancy would be i only had one an got twins i am gettin the sad feelings about wanting another baby now or maybe in a few yrs bc right now we have what we can afford an handle an thats ok my boys are great an i enjoy them an dont think another baby now would be the best so im happy but i get upset when i think about there 1st bday soon it hits me that they only grow up an all kids an babies will thats what i keep in mind when i think i want to have another thatt it dont last!!! i loved it as well ppl were great to me an i got plenty of attention!! but i am way happier being mommy right nowan twins is work but more so fun!!! would def like another one day but u will see once they start gettin mobile an crawlin an stuff!! it is mayhem!!!

Answer 6

okay, my testimony on this, I had my son in February of last year, we moved from Germany to Georgia (air force) in July last year and in November I found out i was 5 months pregnant with my second (he was my big surprise child) My second son was born March 12. I now have 2 boys, one is 16 months old and the other is 3 1/2 months old, they are 12 months and 2 weeks apart to be exact, i recommend waiting until your first is a year, but I absolutely love being a mom of 2, it gets frustraiting but its great to see my oldest giving his little brought kisses!

Answer 7

i had a daughter december 14th of 2004 and got pregnant 4 months later. my son was born january 3rd (a year and two weeks later!). i wanted them close, but i had had issues conceiving her, and i thought it might take longer. in any case, it's great. now my son is 2 1/2-- out of diapers-- and you can adjust. closer is difficult at first, but they help each other and bond. the first two years of the second one's life will be a challenge (of any child's life- not just the second) and then the physical aspect of caring for them eases up a bit. good luck!

Answer 8

I remember feeling like I wanted to be pregnant right away too.  Honestly, it's best to wait at least a year.  Let your body heal.  Give your baby all the attention he/she deserves.
