We started to TTC for #2 right after DD turned one (she was born in March and my IUD was taken out in late March). At that point I was done BF and AF was kind of coming back. It took three tries and I actually love love love the age difference. DS was born with 23 months difference (though it should have been almost exactly 24 months, but he came early!) and it was great. DD was sort of self-sufficient, she could amuse herself for small periods of time, and she mostly understood what was going on. But, most importantly, she was young enough to not remember a life before him and old enough to feel like she needed to protect him! We are expecting DS #2 in late December, which makes the boys 22 months apart, and I'm really hoping for the same experience!

@cmomma17: we have just started and LO is 16 months. Having 2 under 2 isn't possible with my profession and daycare is expensive here.

we never really TTC for #2. we were NTNP from right after LO the first was born. we knew we wanted more than one, so there wasn't really even any discussion

I got my positive at 7 months PP. I noticed some ewcm out of the blue, after having little to no cm before that (despite AF returning at 3.5 months PP), and saying to dh "hey, wanna make a baby tonight?" (just told this story on @PrincessBaby: 's TTC thread!! kinda feels like i'm over-sharing, telling it twice! haha.)

DS was 12 months when we started TTC. We got pregnant on our 2nd cycle so my due date has them being 22 months apart when DD comes, but with my history of delivering early our Dr & midwife expect me to be early again so they will probably be 21 months apart. We wanted our kiddos to be close together, around 2 years apart so that's why we started trying then. We did expect it to take a little longer to get pregnant than it did though, but we are super excited. I hope they are great friends growing up!

My LO is 23 months and we just started TTC this cycle. I don't have the fever at all but we always wanted to have at least 2 kids and wanted them less than 3 years apart...my husband waited very patiently for me to be ready and so here we are trying for baby #2. I have a feeling as my LO becomes more and more of a big girl I will get the fever bad and hopefully I'll already be pregnant by then

My DS is 16 months now and we are on cycle #2 TTC#2. I breastfed DS exclusively for 12 months, so my period didn't come back until recently.

I'm 10w pp and have baby fever already! I think it's because she is growing so fast and I miss the newborn stage already!
We would like our LO's about two years apart and took us about 5 months the first time, so I think we will start trying when she is about a year old.

@cmomma17: We also wanted to wait until we were extremely financial stable before having 2 LOs. We have no credit card debt, a good amount in savings, max our 401k plans and max LOs 529 plans. I think with 2 LOs you need to be financially sound, since babies are expensive.

I wanted to start TTC for #2 when Xander turned 6 months. Currently we're NTNP, but AF still hasn't shown up for me, so we're not full-on TTC.
