Want another baby - but when???

[leonsmum]

I'm ultra-broody at the moment. DS is 1 in 12 days and am feeling very nostalgic about the whole pregnancy, birth, little baby thing. I really want more children but would I be making life unneccessarily 'hard' for all of us by having a small gap, not the least DS. Am in no rush to return to work and want to really enjoy DS but am so broody and keep hoping that I will have more.

I know you can't always choose, but is there such a thing as a good gap? Is it very hard having two or more children close together?

Yes and No sometimes it feels like you have twins(total respect to mothers of twins!!) mine are 18 months apart and I'm glad they are(sometimes)

My sisters and I are all 18 months apart and I think it made us very close (annoying but close!) we also all grew up together... my mother feels the same(we all left around the same time!!).

I would have another if I could afford it!

If you want to go for it as long as dh/dp is okay with it!!
