Am I crazy?

Question

Came here to ask about anyone’s experience with having babies back to back! Like getting pregnant within the first 5 months after having a baby. Is it super hard? Did you lose your milk supply? Was it a successful pregnancy? I want to know everything!

Answer

My daughter was 2 months old when I got pregnant with my son. She never latched so i wasnt breastfeeding her. I have high risks pregnancies due to GD, Thyroid issue and preeclampsia. The deliveries went great they were healthy and happy. The key thing was my GD was worst with my son as they were so close together but my blood pressure from pree was actually better not sure why. They are best friends and I found the transition was easy. All the best to you!

Answer

I got pregnant when my daughter was 7 months. For the first 12 weeks of pregnancy i had no issues with milk supply but between 12-20 weeks my supply dropped and by 20 weeks it was gone. Luckily I got my daughter to her first birthday with my limited supply and my freezer stash.
I’m almost 34 weeks now and haven’t had any issues besides being more tired this time but prob just cuz it’s hard to chase around a toddler when in 3rd trimester haha

Answer

My first two babies are 14 months apart. So we got pregnant with baby #2 when baby #1 was about 5 months old. Everything went great! I stopped breastfeeding my first baby around 2 months though because it was painful & I think he had a lip tie that I didn't know about. So I don't know about milk supply during the 2nd pregnancy. 
They're 4 & 3 years old now & the best of friends! The only tough times were that newborn phase with a young toddler & when my 2nd was crawling & I was trying to potty train my 1st. That was rough. But now it's amazing!
