Should I have baby #2 soon?

Question

I have a 7 month old baby. I want at least 2 kids but I'm 35 now. I don't want another baby too late in life. I know you don't know me or my situation but your opinion please, should I have another baby soon?

Answer

I am pregnant with my first baby at 37. (I actually always wanted to be a young mum but circumstances got in the way.) I’m thinking - without prior knowledge - that I will probably try to get pregnant within a year of the first being born. 
However, it’s worth noting that when I spoke to my midwife about wanting to find an NCT class for older mums, she was quite surprised. She told me that I was the low end of average in the hospital and that she saw lots of mums in their 40s/50s. 
I just wanted to tell you that so that you can make a relaxed and informed decision. Have the next one when you’re emotionally/physically and mentally ready - not because of some fear of a ticking time bomb. 
Good luck.

Answer

I want to start trying when my son is 1 because it can take a while to conceive and not just that pregnancy is for 9 months so either way he will be 2+. Other people's opinions doesn't matter as long as your stable and ready then go for it!

Answer

I won’t try until baby #1 has turned one if not more. I want to enjoy my little girl for a bit longer but I don’t want a massive age gap between them if I can help it. Don’t stress about being older. A lot of people now are waiting longer to have kids
