Pregnant too soon?

JM

before I even had my son we talked to my doctor about getting pregnant again very quickly. She explained the risks to me about not waiting 12-18 months between pregnancies. at my 6 week post partum check up she told me that she was fine without birth control and that if I got pregnant again it was only between me, my husband, and God. a few weeks later we found out I'm BRCA+. my husband and I agreed that I would have all of the preventative surgeries when we finished having babies. after finding out that information, we decided the risks of getting pregnant too soon outweighed the risk of cancer. so, here I am 5 weeks pregnant and my son is 8 months old. I'm terrified I made a bad decision. all I do is worry about the new baby and if he/she will be healthy. anybody elae plan their pregnancies close and now scared?
