My baby is 10 weeks old. Is it selfish to want another one already?

Question

Answer

I wouldn’t say selfish. Is this your first? It’s a good idea to let your body heal longer before trying to get pregnant again. There are health risks for you and baby if you get pregnant again very soon.

Answer

I voted yes, because I think that your baby deserves his parents all to himself for a little bit longer than just a year. Like, he's just 10 weeks old and you're already thinking: next! But this is just me being brutally honest!
That being said having kids is always selfish. I mean it benefits nobody else; you have them because you want them.

Answer

No. But I’d wait a few months bc babies go through a lot of changes. I got pregnant when my daughter was 7 months and it’s been rough with morning sickness, early mornings and she still doesn’t sleep through the night (11 months now).

Answer

Not medically recommended. Your body needs time to heal. I’d wait even if just another month or two. My doc said “don’t even think about it for another year”.

Answer

Your reasons for wanting another one so soon would be what makes it selfish. Since I don’t know the reason I can’t answer

Answer

When my daughter was smaller, I felt the same. I wanted another one like right away lol. But now she’s almost 8 months and I think it was just the hormones because I don’t want another one for awhile. I’m so exhausted! I would say wait until your baby is a bit older and let yourself heal. But it’s also your life and you decide what’s best for you. I like my daughter not having to share me with another sibling yet since she’s so little still.

Answer

I had my second 18 days after my oldests' first birthday 😅 it's hard but it's so worth it
