Too close together?

Question

My daughter is six months old and I just found out that I'm eight weeks pregnant. If my due date is accurate there will be less than 14 months between them, is anyone else in the same boat? I'm worried about coping with two so young!!!

Answer

Well darling next month I will have a three year old a set of 16 month old twins and I'm 24 weeks pregnant! So at the beginning of the year I will have four children 3yrs and under! You will be fine.

Answer

I have an 11 month old and am 31 weeks tomorrow with twins. So I know exactly how you feel. Congrats btw!!

Answer

I just wanted to say that u are strong and capable!! There will be days I'm sure that will be long and challenging... And tears.. But there will also be days that you will be so overwhelmed with love, it won't matter💜💜
I'm due in Jan with #2. I found out I was Prego when my daughter was only 8/9 months old. I was scared and I felt like I let My daughter down in some way.  But as time went on and the idea settled in, i realized it's ok. And believe it or not there's LOTS of moms in our boat!  Playmates, best friends, and guardians to each other is just some of the great things that come with the closeness. Also excited for maybe 2019...maybe I can sleep then!?!?

Answer

My boys will be 13 months apart I'm due in December... I've been mentally preparing myself for the good and the bad.. It's definitely  going to be hard at first but as they get bigger it will be easier! And your little one will now have a playmate they'll entertain each other :) good luck mama

Answer

My oldest was 14m when I had my youngest in August. It does get hard because of how dependant on you they both are, but it's starting to get a little easier. The first couple of weeks has been the hardest so far. Just trying to get in a routine with my youngest, and making sure my oldest doesn't feel left out was difficult, and it didn't help that my oldest didn't like the new one at all. Now, he loves him more than anything I think lol. He constantly comes up and gives him kisses, and rubs his head. Also, dealing with recovering makes the first couple of weeks that much more difficult. Just remember that everything will get easier! I hope everything goes well. Good luck!

Answer

There are only 17 months between me and my younger sister. My mom cried when she found out she was pregnant again (not happy tears-- I wasn't a good sleeper and she was terrified she'd never sleep again). But she survived the first few hard months and I grew up with a built-in playmate.

My oldest is will only be a couple weeks from her second birthday when her little sister gets here, and I'm a little anxious about even that close of a gap honestly!

Answer

Yes it will probably be very hard at first, but coming from someone who was close in age to my older brother, we became the very best of friends! I know a lady that had 12 kids and got pregnant with each one once the baby was 9 months old. Not the same gap as yours, but if she could do it 12 times soon after I think anyone can! 😂
