i really cant wait to start trying for another baby but my bubs only 8 months old what can i do to stop the urge of trying again? everytime i walk past anything new born assosiated i go all goo goo! and if a pregnant women walks past me i melt... im still having problems with my sister in law! (ill inform those who dnt know what its about) she is jelouse of everything i do or have its like i cant buy a packet of chewing gum without her going sick with jelousy. We both started trying for a baby 3 years ago and i got pregnant and know have 8 month old, but shes still trying, so i guess thats why i really want to try and wait. mainly because i dont want her to ruin it (prgnancy) with her jelousy like she did with my first one. im in a bit of a pickle!!!!

I am sorry to hear that your sister-in-law is really jealous. That can throw a wrench in things, however it is your life not hers. If you and your husband want to have more babies then you should try. I think it is great having kids close together, it is harder in the beginning however, when they get about 2...they have a blast playing with each other and it actually makes things easier on you. I say, if you are ready why not? If it really matters to you what your sister-in-law thinks then maybe you should tell her that you are thinking of trying again and tell her how you are concerned with how she will handle it. It sounds to me though, that she is focusing on the wrong stuff. She should be celebrating the fact that you have a baby, not making you feel guilty because she hasn't yet.
Good Luck

haha, the reason i laugh i have the same issue, Except, when I got pregnant the first time, she said she was pregnant untill she got pregnant. Now I have a 3 week old and shei s due in August. Why compitition for some people I dont konw. But im not going to stop doing what I want to do for someone else that acts immature. Sorry if she is not rude and immiture like my sister in law. Thats just my part. I would go wit what you want to do. If your ready to have antoher baby so be it. She should be happy for you no matter what. Good luck

Do what's best for you and your family, forget about your sister in law. What you need to worry about is how you are going to divide your time between an 18 month old and an infant. That's where the problems will come in. Both age groups are EXTREMELY demanding and it'll be like having two newborns to deal with, only one will be mobile and louder! If you can handle this, then go for it. Think of your first child, think of you and your husband, and factor your sister in law in last. It's not your fault that she can't get pregnant. You shouldn't have to put your family on hold just because she can't have one right now.

If another baby is what you want, and your husband agrees, and you are ready for another baby as far as financially and time wise, then go ahead! Don't worry about your sister, if she is meant to have a baby, then she will. Good luck!!! Congrats on the new baby!!

If you want to try for another baby then do it!! Who cares what your sister-in-law thinks. She can't ruin your good thing if you don't let her. Good luck!
