Well you are married. A parent, and can do what you want.

i think you should wait until your kid is at least potty trained. my sister and i are three years apart and there is nothing wrong with that. my best friend had her kids too close together and now she has a five month old and a two year old still in diapers because she doesn't have the time to potty train her correctly and do you want the same thing? can you afford all the money it will cost in diapers for those two? really think about it.
i also think that your mom helping with a first baby is fine, but you shouldn't need her for a second one because you should be experienced enough to be able to take care of two kids without momma's help.

It sounds like you have everything figured out then. Don't worry about what people say on here, it is your life after all. If you and your husband want and can afford to support another baby, then get to it.

Do what feels right for you, but 17 seems awful young. Here's the thing you may be fine, but society...well western at least..will look down of it. It's not right, but it's the truth. Just do what's best for you, your child, your husband, and your futur children. Good Luck

Let me give you some straight up advice. Try to babysit 2 kids near the same age for a few days. After that you will probably tell your husband forget it we can wait.
I have 2 kids. 8mos and 2 and it is hard for me sometimes. Especially when they get sick together.

If you have another child then make sure you do not have any more. then by the time you are 37 years old. they will be grown and gone

No. You're not old enought to be taking care of two kids. And don't be tempted just to dump them on your mom. that's not what a good parent would do, just because they want their one year old to have a sibling.

It sounds as if you want to get pregnant so that your daughter can have a real live baby doll. Great! That's a good reason.
