If it was up to me, I would start trying now.



Me too! I would have been pregnant again right after I delivered DD if it were up to me!

ETA: As it looks now, I'd hope to have our next child when DD is 2 or 3.

I got pregnant when DD was a little under one--so they're 20 mos. apart. Love it! By this point a 3rd baby would be at least 22 mos apart...and probably several more than that! Chat Icon

I really wanted to be part of the Two under Two club since I am 38 but it didn't work out that way. Hoping they will be close to two years apart though...Chat Icon

We like the idea of having our kids two year apart (or so)...with the oldest and youngest hopefully having no more than 4 years between them. Chat Icon

So...we are going to be TTC sometime soon and hopefully have our BFP before the end of the year.

we would like to start trying next spring or summer, when DS is around 2. We are trying to sell our condo and buy a house before TTC #2 (its on the market now) but with the market so bad i dont think its happening anytime soonChat Icon so may have to push it back another year when DS is almost 3 (and we hopefully have a house!).

Re: How Long Will You Wait Until Having 2nd? POLL

we seriously considered trying over the next few months, which would have made our kids 16-19 months apart, but i've now had a change of heart and want to wait a couple of years so that they would be about 3 years apart.

i've decided that i wouldn't be able to handle 2 under 2. i think i would be way too overwhelmed and wouldn't really get to enjoy this time with my son (especially if i have another terrible pregnancy...).

I was going to start trying when DS was a little over a year. However, my DS is a horrible sleeper and it is wreaking havoc on me! If he doesn't start sleeping better soon its not happening yet! I keep telling DS - Do you NOT want a brother or sister??? Chat Icon Chat Icon

We are done, but if we were going to have another one, we have to wait til Christopher is 4, then get pregnant as we can't afford 2 in daycare.

My kids are 5 years and 2 months apart. We did not want the expense of having 2 in daycare.
