Baby #2

So our daughter turned 2 last month and I really don’t want her and her sibling to be far apart. I want to start trying for baby #2 soon. My husband wants another baby but he wants me to start working first (I graduated recently). Right now he’s our only income and we live pretttty comfortably but still a little struggle some times, and he works hard to provide for us. The best scenario would be for me to get pregnant soon, stay home with the kids til they get a little older, and then go to work. Or even work a couple days a week. I don’t see the point in starting to work now if I’ll get pregnant soon. But I also don’t want to wait so long to get pregnant either. Part of me feels guilty because he has to work extra hard and takes overtime hours and side jobs to be able to provide for us. I don’t want him putting that stress on himself. But I also know that if given the chance to stay home and raise the kids and still be able to pay bills, I’d take it. (No offense to any working moms at all- you’re all amazing too!) I just don’t know what choice to make. Any advice or similar situations? Thanks!
