Am I the only one who seems to feel at their most broodiest when baby is tiny?

DD nearly 6 months and I have been broody since about a week after she was born!! I remember feeling like this with DS too, but am sure I was over it by now. Is it just me?!

Me too. I'm far less broody now ds is 11 months than for the first 6 months! I think now the reality of how I'd cope with another baby is kicking in . He has been the most easy-going adorable baby ever so made me horribly broody but I'd probably end up with another baby like dd instead - colicky non-feeding nightmare!

Me too. Thats how I ended up with a 16m age gap..

Me too!

Really thought that after having DS2 (6 months now) that would be it for us. I went through pregnancy thinking how I would never be pregnant again, but now spend a lot of time thinking how much I'd like another one..

DH not at all keen though, so I'm hoping I'll eventually feel the same, but I dont think I will!
