I would wait a bit if I were you. Most experts agree that waiting 18 months between pregnancies is ideal.

I've gone back to back to back to back 😅. Being pregnant with small kids/ babies was really tough, but it was the right choice for us.

Being pregnant and having a toddler is tough,. There are good days tho. I had my first at 34 and my second at 36.

It depends, will it be harder to be pregnant right away with a younger child, or pregnant with an older child but you yourself are also older? There are similar risks between waiting less than 18 months and waiting 5 years or more between pregnancies. Also, new studies show the risks of a 12 month wait were basically equivalent to those at 18 months. There are also different risks for being pregnant after 35. I was cleared at 9 months pp to start TTC (internal/external ultrasounds, etc.).

Just had baby number 2 at 36. My first was 2.5. I think this is a good age gap cos first baby is a bit more self sufficient, can help out etc. I feel like 2 under 2 would be torture 😂

I conceived my 1st baby naturally when I was 35 years old and I got pregnant again when he turned 8 months. I hired a nanny to look after my 8 month old baby while I was mostly resting coz my first baby was delivered through c-section. This made me lose substantial amount of quality time with my little baby. But I was excited to give him a sibling. However, God had different plans and took away my 2nd baby from my womb when I was 38 week pregnant. I am still trying to recover from this pain.

3 years between at minimum is ideal to deeply heal and replace lost mineral stores and ensure better health for your next baby, but that being said, you get to decide 💓

My mental health, remineralization, quality time with my first that’s still very much a baby and needs me, rebuilding the relationship with my husband post baby - all reasons why 2 under 2 is not for me. Waiting until she’s 3 will mean I’ll be 38+ if we have a second, but I’ve decided I’m fine with that.

I had first at 34 second now at 36 (just turned 36 one month before birth) and that second pregnancy was roooough but … incredible baby … if I could go through that pregnancy without it being so hard I’d have a 3rd.

That depends, I had my first at 35 and second at 38 and the recovery was faster with my second, but I was more tired, because need to take care of my 3 year old as well, but with help husband or partner it is possible. They have 2 and 5 now and I love to see them play.
