Hey mama! It can be scary at first. I found out I was pregnant again 5 months pp and unfortunately it ended in a loss. I didn’t want to be pregnant anymore till at least later next year. Well I just found out I’m pregnant again I was 9 months pp when I got pregnant and now I’m 8 weeks. My babies will be 18 months apart. Honestly it’ll be tough for a while, but eventually with love and growth it’ll get easier. They’ll play with each other and have each other for the rest of their lives. It’s scary at first, but it can turn out to be so beautiful. Some things happen for a reason 🤍 feel free to message me.
Hi cienna ! Well congratulations all i want to say is make the best decision for yourself. Forget about your partner/ your other baby/ family this sounds harsh but make a decision for you. I also got pregnant by accident 6mo pp and while i was so scared and considering an abortion when i first found out since i love my first born so much and i felt so bad to be adding a sibling when he still soo needy. While considering my options i realized my baby is growing every day and is in a different stage than the new baby . Which makes me feel a lot better. I asked my partner wat he thought was the best idea but i let him know from the jump i will only consider it but will not base my decision just on his opinion. Now im 6 months pregnant having a baby girl and my son started day care last week. Planning to keep him in day care while im on maternity leave so i dont get overwhelmed. Im sure life will be a bit harder with two kids but it will also be beautiful to watch them grow up together
Congratulations! I have a 14 month age gap between mine & best thing I ever did! You’ll be fine, it’s amazing xx
Yes your oldest will have less of your time but will have a sibling to love on her. If you don’t want to have another baby right now girl, you absolutely have the right to make that decision. If you’re very early along there is a pill that’s available to terminate. But if you have family, friends, and a supportive partner, then you should be able to do it if YOU want to. You can love both your babies. What makes it difficult with them so close together is that your older one isn’t really old enough to understand hold on mama is with baby right now so can be pushy. Other than that hiccup they’ll both get plenty of play and love. And lastly if you were planning on having more children in just 3 years you might as well get it over with now. I spaced mine apart a bit and now I’m 31 with a newborn. It’s late, I’m tired so I know I’m back and forth and wish washy in this comment but basically dig deep down in your heart and follow what’s in there. You’ll be an amazing mother either way.
I also found out I was pregnant again when I was 3 months pp. It was also unplanned but we decided to go ahead with it. I completely understand your worries and it is your decision. You have to do what you think is best for you and your family. That being said, my two little ones are soo close. They love playing with eachother. At the beginning it was a little hard because my firstborn was jealous but after 3 weeks it was as if his little brother had always been there. They still get plenty of attention and love from us plus they get love and attention from eachother. If you need to talk, feel free to message me. I know this can be a very hard decision.
Same boat as you chick . My daughter is 6 months & im already pregnant with my second due march next year . This was me & my partner thinking at the start . Was literally looking at different options . But you’ll love it . If you can manage you’ll be okay . If you got a good support system you will be okay .
