I can't stop thinking about having a 2nd baby

[AnnabelleCos]

I'm a first time mum to the most wonderful 9 month old boy and enjoying every moment with him, however, every day at multiple times, I feel the desperate need to have another baby and feel saddened that I'm not pregnant.
I had the most wonderful pregnancy with him, no morning sickness or anything like that and being pregnant even cured the acid reflux I've suffered with since I was little.
I've expressed these desires to my husband who thinks I'm crazy and that I should enjoy our Son until we're ready to grow our family.
My question is, am I alone feeling this - the desperate need for another baby so soon?
It's literally the first thing I think about when I wake up. Not only that, I'm still on maternity leave from my first baby... I'm not due back until July!

Your DS is 9 months, if you got pregnant straight away there would be 19 months between them. It's a pretty standard age gap. However, remember that pregnancy with a baby is a totally different ball game to a first pregnancy where you can rest and enjoy your pregnancy without having another little person needing you. Personally I wouldn't want such a small gap but many do

There is 16 month age gap between mine, totally planned, wouldn't change it for the world. 2nd pregnancy was actually way easier, I had less time to dwell on niggles and worries etc.

Yes I'd agree it's a perfectly fine age gap.

However, I really didn't enjoy my second pregnancy or maternity leave because it was so different to just having one newborn to look after. I went back to work early because I needed the rest!!

Felt like this whilst still on the maternity ward with dc2, and the feeling never left me! Had to wait a couple of years though!

Many people do small age gaps. I returned to work already two months pregnant with my second. I have a 20 month gap and while it was initially a lot of work, they play so well. And its not crazy to want more babies while you still have a baby. While I was pushing my second baby, I was talking about having a third baby lol. The midwife could not believe it. However, my first two close in age kept me busy, so only now when my youngest is 5 that we tried for and am pregnant with a third.
