Am I crazy to want another baby already?
My son is six months old and my husband and I have discussed trying for another or just "letting things happen". I go back and forth with it. I just started my second period. I'm worried about not letting nature take it's course because what if it takes us a couple of years as it is now. You never know. We could wait and then when we try not be able to have another for a while. I'm an only child and don't want my son to be an only child. Is it doable to have two kids so close in age-if it does happen or am I crazy?

My daughter is only 9 months and I am almost 3 months pregnant! I say, Go For It!!!!!
It will be tough, but people do it all the time!

I don't think you're crazy! If we weren't having twins we would be trying soon after the first so they'd be close together in age. If you feel ready for a second, there's no harm in trying. Good luck!

Mine are only 16 months apart, so yes, it can be done. I'm not saying that there aren't difficult days, but my friends who have kids 2 or 3 years apart also have hard days. I think that no matter what the age difference there will always be challenges, just different ones.

I'm in my 30's so I probably will wait at most a year before TTC again after my baby is born. I know it'll be hard work, but like someone else said, I think it would be hard work regardless of the situation. So if you feel that it's something that you truly want, I would go for it.

I don't think you're crazy! Ask me again once I have this baby and I have 3 kids under 4.

Not crazy at all! My little ones will be 15 months apart. I'm glad they'll be so close together in age. While it will be hard at first, I know it will have advantages in the future

There a lot of 2 under 2 moms. Mine are 22 months apart (pregnant when the first turned a year). I wouldn't have it any other way. If you're ready & your ob says it's a go, I see no reason to wait.
