kids back to back?

my partner and i are discussing trying for another baby and our first is only 4 months right now. i want another one so bad but is it going to be detrimental to my health? i had a very healthy pregnancy my first go round.just wondering how soon is too soon for another one? id like 4, at least somewhat close in age. 🥲

DO IT!! Mine are 14 months apart and I was so scared but it was the best thing I could have ever done my second is 6 weeks old atm

you do whatever your heart tells you mama, but i’ve heard that having babies back to back is really hard on your body…i’m sure every woman is different, but me personally, im going to wait atleast a year before i try for my second child

it’s hard af on ur body. but i think it was worth it

My OB said getting pregnant sooner than 18 months after having a baby comes with a lot of risks. In my opinion, those risks are not worth me rushing another pregnancy while my body is still recovering.

Mom of three here. Their ages are 4,3 and 14 months old. And absolutely I say DO IT! IT would be the best gift you give them, expect brining them to life. You are giving them a friend for life. I have a lot of family around that have kids with age gap 3 years and up. While it can be easy to manage, because the older kids they do help, same time they will not share the same interests or games together, and this will affect their connection and relationship. But first I do think that a healthy mind, body and heart is way better to start a new pregnancy after a 1 or so, than to start now from excitement and have an overwhelmed body and mind.
