Have i lost the plot??

I'm seriously wondering if i'm losing the plot lol !! I have a 5 nearly 6year old and a 6 month old and I really want to get pregnant again 🙈 !! Since i had my baby at the end of June i've not stopped thinking about when I can have another !!! My partner isnt opposed to another baby but would like to wait until our daughter is about 18months old. There are a lot of newborns and pregnancies around me at the moment from close friends and family and im wondering if that could be why i have babies and pregnancy on the brain so much !! I go back to work in March which im looking forward to but im also working out when i will have worked my maternity back again 😂 !!!

I’m exactly the same !! I swore I would only have one as I was shit scared of giving birth/don’t want to struggle with money etc and get 16weeks on I would love another! If money was no issue, I would do it now if I could. Is it a hormone thing? I had a pretty crap labour as well.

Im the same i dont want money to be tight or constantly knackered- also at the minute theres always one parent per child which obviously makes life easier haha my partner also worries we'll never get a babysitter again 😂 silly things aside though, like you if money was no object i'd definitely go for it now !!!

Do you mean your DP would rather wait until your DC2 is 18 months before having DC3, or before trying for DC3?

Because 6 plus 9 is 15, so you're basically there already.

I have a 3.5 year old my new baby is 20 weeks old and over the last month I've been daydreaming about having another one

I told my DH how I was feeling and he told me that he'd rather chop his penis off or get divorced than have another baby
