how long should i wait to have another baby?

Question

my son is 14 months old when do you think is a good age to have a sibling or to get pregnant???

Answer 1

My oldest and middle child are 2 1/2 years apart and my middle and youngest are 1 year apart. I like the age gap between my oldest and middle child. There are 2 1/2 years so they aren't too far apart to play together and they still like a lot of the same stuff. They are 2 grades apart in school and even have a couple of the same friends. I wouldn't have it any other way. But, if you go ahead and have another one, be prepared b/c it can be tough having two toddlers, but when they get older, it's nice!!

Answer 2

I think everyone is different and there is no right or wrong answer to this question. You should sit down with your significant other and talk about what you both want. I have 3 children, ages 6, 3 and 1, and we are very happy with the age differences. I say if you feel content the way you are and you feel like you want another now and your spouse does too then go for it!
Best of luck!~

Answer 3

Whenever you think you're ready to support another baby is the best time. My son is 9 months and I'm dying to get pregnant again... but there are too many things I want to get done before the birth of another child-- like do my basement... so it all depends on where you are in life.

I think the younger the age gap the better.

Answer 4

a year or 2

Answer 5

I got pregnant when my daughter was 14 months old. My two kids are 22 months apart and get along pretty well, for the most part.

Answer 6

That depends on you. There really is no way to figure out how far apart your kids should be. My kids are 11 months apart and they get along great. They are going to be 1 & 2 this year. Most people say a year apart but I think that you should be the one to decide when to have kids.

Answer 7

Doc's usually say atleast 6 months. But if you think you are ready now, go ahead. All ages adapt to a new baby differently. So if you think your 14 month old would adapt okay, go ahead. Good Luck!!!

Answer 8

I would say wait until your baby is at least 2 to start trying that way you should have the potty training out of the way. I have a 3 yr old and a two year old, and even though it is very fun to watch them interact I would love to have them potty trained. It is just easier and cheaper when you get out of that stage.

Answer 9

Well I don't know what your budget is like but most people Waite until there first child is potty trained to save on diapers. So you could conceive if when you are about to start the potty training. That is also not to far apart but enough that they still like to play with each other.

Answer 10

For health reasons they are now saying to wait at least 18 months between pregnancies. I say whenever you feel ready. I don't think you'd end up pregnant unless your body is ready and willing.
