Anyone with a young baby in the tww?

Hey,

Anyone else out there?

DS is 4 and a half months nearly and we were a little careless this month. Dtd is still tender so it's only been the once but it was about two days before ovulation.

We'll be over the moon if I am pregnant but it feels weird to think of juggling another. 10 days to go until AF is due!

Not sure really, tbh. I'm going to try to hold out till af is due. Might test after the bank holiday. Maternity leave takes away the money to buy millions of tests EnvyGrin it's going to be a long wait!

With my first two pregnancies I had quite sharp implantation pain. That should be over the next day or so

@purpleviolet1 I feel your pain! We've had continuous problems with reflux and silent reflux but thankfully things are starting to settle now he's on formula free of cows milk.

@beekeeper17 I really hope so too! It'd be nice to have a friend for the journey! I've had so many stomach cramps this month it's unbelievable! And last night had a sip of wine and promptly spat it out! My taste changes so quickly when I'm pregnant so I'm hoping it's a good sign and not just my imagination. AF due in 8 days!!

Let us know what happens @DoubleCarrick I'm secretly hoping you do get a BFP so I'll have someone else going through the same thing as me!

Hi carrick! Recognise you from the staying positive following mc thread .. nice to see you are doing well and potentially another on the way!!! Keep us posted. LO is 9 weeks and has quite severe silent reflux so things are really difficult at the moment. Just trying to get through each day

I have 13 months (and 1 day!) between mine (girl then boy). Bloody hard going at times, but as they get older it does get easier (they're almost-4 and almost-3 now).

They're too cute when they're saying they love each other. And nightmares when they're fighting! 😂

I'm all for close age gaps!

Congratulations to you both Smile I'm very hopeful! We're thinking of the third when ds is 4 and the second is 3

I'm going to have a 13 month age gap, just had my 12 week scan a couple of weeks ago and can't really believe we're doing this all again so soon. People aren't sure whether or not to believe me when I tell them I'm pregnant again! Good luck!

My DC2 is 10 months and I'm 7 weeks pregnant there will be 17 months between them it's a little nerve racking but I'm sure it will be fine I've got a 3 yr old to contend with also. Good luck x

Thankyou. I'm excited but nervous - ds has hit the four month sleep regression so it's a crazy time to be trying! There would be 13 months between them

I had 15 months between ds2 and dd1.Best age gap I had .
Both napped at the same time,activities and groups worked for both of them and toddler is still at the stage where they like to do 'jobs' for you.
Congrats if you are.I went on to have another 18 months later and wouldn't have done anything differently.
