Do I want another baby now?

[Cherry85]

So DH and I have been 'trying' for a couple of months now but we rarely have sex....there is always something else going on.

If we really wanted another one surely it would be the priority....not watching football or going to tescos when I'm ovulating?

I think I feel pressured as I am 36 and scared if I leave it too long it won't happen but on the other hand don't feel ready after having my 1 yr old.

You have plenty of time. Don't stress yourself out. Maybe have a chat with your dh and tell him how you feel.

I don't know, I really want no 2 but sometimes the thought of sex is just a bit meh. I suppose the difference is that we do though, and I do always enjoy it once I'm doing it!

Is your 1 year old closer to 12 months or 23 months? Either way it's still quite early days. I didn't want a huge age gap but DH and I weren't ready to consider trying for a second baby until after DC1 turned 2. FWIW I think a 3+ year age gap is good because you get the 15/30 funded hours so you can keep DC1 in nursery for a bit after having DC2, which is a godsend! (Of course you can still do this with a smaller age gap but would have to pay obviously.)
