Has anyone had back to back pregnancies and had two healthy babies? SCARED!!!

I have a 9 month old at home and just found out that we are expecting baby #2. My kiddos will be 17 months apart.

Everything I’m reading says I’m putting myself and this new baby at a big risk by having my kiddos so close in age. I wasn’t taking a prenatal before conceiving this second baby, but started taking one the day we found out (which was 9DPO). I am breastfeeding.

Has anyone in this boat had healthy children? Dr. Google has me scared shitless!!! My son was such an effortless pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period. He is in perfect health and ahead on his milestones. I’m hoping I can provide the same for baby #2.
