LO is just over 4 months old, and I am no-where ready to even think about #2!
How old was your LO when the next one entered your mind?

Ummm I said to my mom at 4 weeks pp with my first, DS I could do this again... I got pregnant again at 7 mos pp. I said to my DH about a week after DD was born that I was ready for one more.
He's still sitting on the fence. LOL

We are planning to wait a while, but I sometimes want another already. DS is 4 months, so that makes me feel like I must be crazy, haha.

DD is 10 months and we still feel like she's more than enough, although we can't shake the feeling that we "should" give her a sibling. Although I'm not sure how'd ever manage two! We decided to hold off deciding until she's around 2 years old, so we have another year to figure things out. My age makes it hard to not think about it though, I'm turning 36 this year.

Immediately. Then from 7-9 months the baby fever subsided a bit. Now it's back in full force!

I'm nowhere near ready for #2! LO is 12 weeks. Maybe once he's a year I'll feel ready. I do find myself all wistful lately because he seems to be growing up awfully fast.

I've got my LO snuggled in my arm while she sleeps and it is FAR too easy to want another lol. She's so chill, I bet the next one hits is like a freight train

LO is 7 weeks and I can't even think about #2 right now. I have an appointment for an IUD to make sure it doesn't happen. We have said that we would talk #2 when R is 1 or 18 months.

I had a really rough pregnancy (bed rest for 11 weeks) and delivery so I think the second thing I said after I woke up from the c-section (after I asked if it was a boy or a girl!) was that if I had known it was going to be that hard I would never have done it in the first place. Obviously now I don't think that since time has passed and can't imagine life without my sweet little boy, but I have to admit, my body is not ready for another pregnancy. We both agreed to give it at least 2 years before we would even entertain the idea of having another. So, no baby fever for me!! Although I am looking forward to giving Owen a baby brother or sister some day

@blackbird: I'm with you! We have such an angel baby I worry the next one is going to be a rude awakening...
My LO is 9 months and although there is a want of another in the FUTURE, I'm not there yet. I mostly don't want to be pregnant and deal with the initial post-partum body changes again. I am happy to be "me" again for the time being. I didn't like being pregnant!

When LO was about a year old. Prior to that, I loved the idea of another baby but I wasn't ready at all.

I always had baby fever for #2 Even before #1 arrived. I knew I wanted an 18mo - 24mo age gap... so even though I thought about it constantly... I finally got hubby on board at 9 mo pp. Took a couple months and LO's are 23.5 mos apart
I have baby fever for numbers 3 4 and 5 too.... BUT I also kinda know our family is just right with 2. Does that makes sense?

Not trying to hijack the thread, just curious...
For those of you that wanted one within a few weeks pp, did you have an easy pregnancy and/or delivery? I wonder if that has any correlation? @beebug @weagle @blackbird @artbee @oliviaoblivia @belleoftheballe @autumnlove
