Answer 3

I think it would be wise to wait a while for your own sake and your daughter's.

Having two kids who are really close in age can be a problem sometimes. It is also really hard on YOU! If you have a one month old who is completly incapable of taking care of herself, then having another child who can't take care of herself, it will drive you NUTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I swear. You will be running all over the place and driving yourself crazy!

I think you should just enjoy the child you have now! With another child you can't give as much individual attention to the older daughter. This isn't far to her. She needs her special alone time with Mom.

Having an older child who can babysit your younger child is always helpful. The eldest daughter doesn't have to be like 6 years older. More like 2 years. This is nice because your daughter knows where everything is and you wont have to triain her or anything like that. She also knows the kids vs. a babysitter who doesn't know them. You can also trust your daughter.

Answer 4

every womans body is different, so health wise i cant advise you on that, but i have four children, 10,5,4, and 2.
There are twelve months and six days between my middle two kids, and as hectic as it was with two in diapers, they are very close. waiting too long (5 years) between my first two, there is a lot of conflict between them they do not get along at all and are not close, on the other hand the difference between my two year old and the middle two, they are close to her as well however they dont want her messing with there stuff. I will tell you this though, the only negative thing about having your children as close as i had the two middle ones, is that sometimes i feel as if i cant remember certain things that she done as a baby, because i was too preoccupied chasing around a toddler. my advice to you is to enjoy your 9 month old, wait until she is at least 18 months before you have another one. that way they can still grow up together and share similar interests, and you can enjoy both of your babies as babies.
good luck!

Answer 5

I just asked my doctor this same question, I had a c-section and she told me it would be best for my body to wait 2 years, that there is a higher risk of difficulties if you don't wait the full two years. In my case I only want to wait a year before we start trying again. She told me that I better be in good shape before trying again. meaning loosing the baby weight from the first pregnancy.. good luck....

Answer 6

I got pregnant just three months after i had my first baby. My daughter are 1 year and 3 days apart. They are extemely close. However it is hard at times having 2 small children. Only you know what is best for you.

Answer 7

mine are 5 years apart. I got to spend the 5 important years with each before they went off to school. By the time there 5 they want other friends besides mom. It was nice to have all time in the world for them...
but only you can decide. my grandmother had 14 kids in 10 years....yes twins..... i think she was glad to die... just kidding. the lady washed alot of diapers

Answer 8

If you had a c-section they recommend waiting 1 year, vaginal 6 months..... so any time after that if you feel ready, then go for it. There are both pros and cons to having 2 close n age, so concider both and make your decisions. Good luck!

Answer 9

Atleast let them be 2 years apart. Babies are hard work and having two at a time crying is tough.

Answer 10

u should wait til ur daughter is bout 2years,right nw she'l require a lot of attention n another 1 wil not help,n it wil giv ur body time 2 recover properly.
