Honest question

When my son was approaching 18 months old. He was understanding a lot and things had gotten easier and I just definitely wanted another, always have done. He has just turnt 3 and our daughter is 3 months old, it’s a great age gap with how good my son is with her x

My daughter is 3 and I feel as if this is the perfect age and I don't want to gap to spread any further. The thought of the newborn stage is just 😭

I got pregnant 6 month pp, planned, I felt I was ready and wanted my kids as close together as possible. I've got a 17 month old and a 2 month old and giiiiiirl it isn't easy. I don't think it's 'easy' whatever age you decide, and sometimes you never feel completely ready. But seeing my oldest give the newborn kisses and run to her when she's crying is just bliss ❤️

I chose to wait till my first was 4/5 years old so that he was in school full time meaning that if my second pregnancy was difficult I wouldn't have a toddler to chase around and I could rest when he is in school.

We always discussed having two and the ideal was the second to come when the first was 3. As the time approached we still felt the same. Our first is quite independent so doesn't rely on us as much. I'm 23 weeks with our second and our first is 3 in 3 weeks 😊

I was hoping my eldest would be sleeping better before thinking about another one, but then realised I'd be waiting forever if that was the case 😂 so probably when she was around 18 months I felt mentally ready. There's 2 years 8 months between the two 😊
