Good age of first baby to have a second??

Question

So I'm already wanting a second baby (CRAZY I know!) my sons 2 months old. From experience, what age was your first when you had your second??
If we tried now and got pregnant right away (not likely but!!) they'd be 11 months apart. (Which i know we aren't trying just yet)
But I do want them close in age!! So I need other mommas advice & experiences!

Answer

I'm 13 weeks pregnant and have a 17 month old. I've been really sick so far this pregnancy and even though I had crazy baby fever for months, now that I'm pregnant I'm just not excited at all. Anyone else feel this way? I feel so so guilty.

Answer

I found out I was pregnant again right about the same time as my first turned 6 months old. That means 2 months after he turned one I had a newborn. IT WAS HARD! My first was still a baby and I had a needy newborn. It was hard for me because while I wanted to be able to baby my oldest he had to learn to wait because mama was busy with the baby, and when he wanted me I couldn't always attend to him and I found that emotionally really hard for me. I didn't like that. I would not recommend having them so close together.

Answer

I'm 4 months postpartum and 4 weeks pregnant with #2 LOL

Answer

My girls are 3 years 4 months apart and I love it!

Answer

My LO is 7 months and we are going to start trying for #2. I feel like my body has been given a chance to heal and I also want my kids close in age (plus I just turned 38 this month so time is a ticking!)

Answer

I found out I was pregnant the week after our daughters 1st birthday. I am 10 weeks, due February 6th and our daughter will be about 19.5 months when baby #2 arrives. We wanted another baby next year, just weren't expecting it to happen so quickly (or naturally!) So thankful for our little miracle!

Answer

My daughter just turned 11 months today and I just found out we are expecting number 2 in March! They will be 19 months apart -- we were shooting for 18 months. :)

Answer

I wanted to give my body 1 full year off from being pregnant or breastfeeding. But we started trying a bit sooner than that and it took 7-8 months and 1 miscarriage. Now the kiddos will be 35 months apart, which is a little further apart than I'd like, but I'll take it! And if you're ready for baby #2 sooner, go for it! Why get comfortable? 😜 My sister and I were 1 year apart in school and I loved it.

Answer

When my daughter turned 1 we started trying and immediately got pregnant (as we had hoped) that's the age gap we like 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

my second son was born before my first sons 1st birthday and they are soooo close
