How long did you wait to have your next baby? Someone I knew got pregnant with her second baby 5 months after giving birth to her daughter. After hearing that, it made me curious the time frame other people had. I know everyone is different but I figured I would ask Chat Icon

My two will be 18 months apart. We were planning for a wider gap, 3-4 years, but didn't work out that way :)

3 years, I was not ready after 5 months. Are you sure it wasn't an accident? I didn't even feel like I was healed yet at 5 months post partum.

Found out I was pregnant when dd1 was 16 months. My girls are exactly 24 months apart.

But, you have no idea how long or fast it will be.

Re: How long did you wait in between children?

My DS is 22 months and I would say I am just starting to feel ready to try again. If we decide to have a second, we will start trying next summer (with the help of a RE). My DC would be 4 years apart.

My girls are about 2.5 years apart.

I didn't get af back until dd1 was 15 months. Now my second is almost 16 months and still no af. Clearly I'm not meant to have kids closer together, not that were looking to try again!

My first are 4 years apart which is much longer than I had hoped. I was hoping for 2 1/2-3 years. My 2nd and 3rd will be 15 months apart. The thought of that makes me think that 4 year age gap isn't so bad after all. Chat Icon

Re: How long did you wait in between children?

My first two are 2.5 years apart. 2 and 3 will be 2 years 9 months apart. I wanted the gaps to be closer to two years, but I had several miscarriages. I don't think I could have handled less than a two year gap, but it works for some people!

Re: How long did you wait in between children?

We wanted our kids 2 yes apart but due to IF issues, miscarriages, etc my DD and DS are exactly 4.5 yrs apart. To be honest, I kinda love the bigger age gap..........it was easier when my DS came along to have a more independent and self sufficient kid in the house. Chat Icon

I got pregnant with my 2nd when my DS was 5 months old. They are 14 months apart. My 2nd and 3rd are 2 years 2 months apart. I didn't plan on having my first 2 so close together!! But I love having them close. The beginning was hard though. When i look bad at pics and I can't believe how little my DS was when I was pregnant again!
