Struggling with emotions today. DS is 8 months on Friday and I'm 6 weeks pregnant. We had planned a short age gap, there's only 17 months between me and DB and we're very close, but I didn't expect to fall straight away based on last time TTC (I know this was stupid). We will have a 15 month age gap and I'm just all over the place emotionally right now.
I was excited at first, but now DS just seems so young. I can't help feeling like I'm cutting his babyhood short and feeling so so guilty. He's at such a lovely age I can't help feeling like I wish it was going to be just the three of us for a little bit longer. Is feeling guilty normal or is it just that DS is still so little? Urgh.
I saw there was a very similar thread posted but didn't want to hijack as a decision had been made there.
