My oldest two kids are 1 year apart to the day and my younger two are 1 year and 9 days apart. Right now they are 4 years, 3 years, 17 months and 4 months old. It is hard but when they get older besides the normal kid fighting they are like best friends. (all my kids were conceived using birth control and condoms not planned) But they are my miracles since I was told I would never have children.
With just two kids close in age not a problem when you have 4 kids close in age its a challenge. :)
My biggest problem is that my 4 year old is going into kindergarten and we are getting him ready. But my 3 year old doesn't understand that he won't be going and he will have a hard time with it. If you think you can handle it go for it.

if you have help...if you don't don't try. I would personally wait at least a year, so your body can replenish lost minerals and even hormone levels and muscles go back to pre pregnancy strenght

Hi Katie, congrats for your baby.. :-)
and my opinion is, your health should be good as your baby is only 6 mnths old, but it doesn't mean that i am in favour of abortion, no never. go for secont baby if you are pregnant right now, but you will have to be more carefull about your health, i am saying all this by my experience!!
ALL THE BEST!!

Its nice to have them so close together and that way you get the baby stages out of the way instead of having a 5 year old and then a new baby. Then your stuck with nap times and what nots all over agian. My daughter will be 3 in Dec and I wish I could have another so they arent so far aprt but we need to move first:( Good luck to you and your family!!

i have a friend whose daughters are 10 and 1/2 months apart so yes if you can do it

Rachelle - posted on 08/15/2011

Yes it's fine. My first 2 are 21 months apart and my last 2 are 10 months apart. So I got pregnant when my daughter was only about 1 month old. It's pretty common for kids to be close now a days

Toni - posted on 08/15/2011

My sil has 8 kids and they are all around 10-13 months apart. She is fine and they are fine...

They say it takes your body 6mo-1 yr to recover from pregnancy and birth but I fell pregnant with my son when my daughter was just shy of 4 months old. They are both fine and healthy and so am I. but it can get very stressful the first few months because you basically have 2 babies that want all of your attention. But it gets better.

Deborah - posted on 08/15/2011

Yr heart can only convince you to do what u desire. But on a sobering note, I did exactly that, had my second while my first was just 6 months, it was planned but everyday is a challenge and I wish I didn't because my first needs so much more attention now that he is a toddler, ie potty training, reading, writing and coloring and simply playing with him is so hard to do and often he is neglected in this area. I love my no. 2 and I thank God for her everyday. But if I knew better, I would have her a little later like when no 1 was three at least. But unless u have a maid then consider this, if u have everyday help, then go for it. God bless.

Keri - posted on 08/15/2011

Why wouldn't it be? It would probably be extra stressful to try to manage a pregnancy AND a 6 month old, but having a second or third or whatever number after 1 is going to be a juggling act in the first place.

Adrienne - posted on 08/14/2011

I got pregnant again when my daughter was about 6 months old, I am due September 1st and they will be about 14 months apart. My husband and I also split up when I was 3 months along, thank God I have a wonderful and supportive and VERY helpful family! I know I will need the help and will be very busy and sleepless for quite a while, but they're so worth it! They will be best friends growing up I think and there are pros and cons to every situation! I think it's all how you look at it, if you think you can do it, you can!

my sister in law have 2 boys - 10mths apart

Altara - posted on 08/14/2011

my second son was 6 months old when I got pregnant with my daughter. In some ways its hard cause they were only 13 months apart and it seemed like I would finish one thing with my son and then my daughter would start and then buying 2 different size diapers was expensive. but If you think you can handle two babies that close then go for it. My son and daughter are really close with being so close in age.

My husband and I have two boys- Will and Gabriel- and they are 12 months apart- we wanted to have two very close together and I was able to get pregnant again 3 1/2 months after Will was born (and yes I was also breastfeeding). I love it! If you want to, and you can afford it financially and have the support of a strong family and husband, i say go for it! You WILL need help though, so make sure you have the support system in place first!

It will be a major challenge thats for sure! I personally love having a few years between my kids. But I know people that like having theirs close together. Its all a preference and if you think you can handle it awesome! Go for it! I know I wouldnt be able to handle it. haha

Nakeia - posted on 08/09/2011

my personal opinion is no! i would never do it my kids are four years apart almost 5 and still find it hard but to babies in pampers at one time wouldnt work for me! but if you think you can handle it have fun...

Anne - posted on 08/08/2011

I got preggers again when my lil girl was 3/4 months and its been hard. Im due in two weeks. if you think you can handle it then go for it :)

Christina - posted on 08/08/2011

If you feel like you can handle it, then go for it!

Janessa - posted on 08/08/2011

It's totally up to you, as far as physical problems there shouldn't be any, some women might have a hard time still nursing and being pregnant, but it was never an issue with me, but the youngest one I've had while nursing is an 11 month old, so you never know. If you think you can handle it and want to do it, go for it.

Bonnie - posted on 08/08/2011

By the sounds of it, it sounds like you are already pregnant and asking for reassurance that it is okay. If you are already pregnant, there is nothing really that you can do at this point. If you are not, it is probably best to prevent it for at least a little while if you can, to let your body fully heal. Whatever happens good luck.

Wendi - posted on 08/08/2011

I have 3 daughters... 3, 2 and almost 1. It is definitely a challenge, but well worth it. If you feel like you are capable then you can do it. It is difficult though when you are nursing one, and the other is demanding attention. On the other hand, they get along well, and I am told by others that as they grow up, they will have close relationships.

Mikayla - posted on 08/08/2011

I think its alright, my oldest was four months when I got pregnant again... Its like having twins somedays but its great in the long run they will be best friends... Iif this is what you want go for it sweetie

i did i fell pregnant with my second when my son was 6 months old now my eldest joey just tuned 3 n my second kelsey will be 2 in october n they r very close n really good friends - most of the time

Jenni - posted on 08/07/2011

Sure! It *may* be a bit harder than waiting. But people manage twins/triplets as well as children close together. You'll adjust.
Keep in mind though it's pretty common to feel the urge to have another right after your first. I don't know why, but I had a strong urge to have the next one or another one immediately after birth. I've also seen many women on here claim to experience the same thing. Also, keep in mind that pregnancy is hard on your body and it is good to give your postpartum body time to heal.

I used the time inbetween my first and second child to get back into shape and build strength for my next pregnancy.

My son was just a little over 7 months old when I got pregnant with his sister. Everything was fine.

Christine - posted on 08/07/2011

I was preg by the time my daughter was 12 wks there will be a year between them :) x

Angie - posted on 08/07/2011

I did! My first was a c-section, had a VBAC with my second, they're 15 months apart. And just had a third. Found out I was pregnant a week and half before # 2's first birthday. So my second and third are 21 months apart. It's completely up to you = )

Jordan - posted on 08/05/2011

If you are already pregnant, Congrats! That is exciting *smile* And of course it is OK. *smile* Just check with your doctor if you are worried.

If you are not, then if you are wanting a baby. I would check with your doc still. And if you can take care of two babies, then yes. My sister and I are 18 months apart and I loved having a friend so close in age that was always there, until I was a teenager *smile* But that's years down the road *smile* haha, and we love eachother now, haha *smile*

Jodi - posted on 08/05/2011

Also, if you are breastfeeding, you may want to hold off, because often pregnancy will change the milk and this put some children off and they will self wean.

Jodi - posted on 08/05/2011

Wow....even after an early miscarriage they recommend you wait for 3 months. 2 months after a full term pregnancy and live birth is just nuts.

Having said that, Katie, if you had a c-section it would definitely not be recommended. I can't remember the exact time frame, but I believe they suggest waiting at least 18 months after a c-section.

are you already preggo or thinking about trying? there are risks to getting pregnant that soon after the last google it.

TANIS - posted on 08/05/2011

Tah - posted on 08/05/2011

If it's okay with you, if you are ready go ahead, I wouldn't but it's not my decision, I'd probably pull my hair directly out..lol..

My kids are 16 months apart and I admit it was an adjustment in the beginning, but I'm glad we did it. They are best friends and its so amazing to see them play together. I'm pregnant with our third now and contemplating the same thing. (we want 4), once you get a routine down your good to go. Good luck!

Katie - posted on 08/05/2011

I became pregnant with my daughter when my son was only 6 mos. They are a little over 14 mos. apart. There are some difficult parts with having them close but there are also some good ones!I love that I had them so close together.I'm expecting my third child and my kids will be 3 and 4 years apart from this one. I say if you think you are ready to do it again go for it, just be prepared for the added stress!

Erica - posted on 08/05/2011

I would wait. But if you think you can handle it, then go for it!

Alesha - posted on 08/05/2011
