Expecting to have another baby

Currently preg with my 2nd n my 1st is 16mo, I honestly wished the age gap was closer as my ideal age gap is 1yr, I hate big age gaps n although I am still feeling a little sad that it isn’t my ideal age gap I’m still glad it’s less than 2yr. I feel bad sometimes for my daughter as yes she is gonna have to share the attention with a new sibling but I believe she is ready for it, she loves babies n little animals n is always trying to “help” her aunt with her baby cousin. Honestly hoping for multiples instead of a singleton so I can focus on them all at once instead of constantly going through this process n I know I can handle them all without help

Hi.. similar to you I was pregnant when my first born is 15m old. they will be exactly 2 years apart. for me it was a planned pregnancy and I felt that it is a good thing to have siblings closer in age gap and it would be a good thing for my older child as well. he can have someone to share his joy and also a playmate, a confidant when he is older. although sometimes I feel sad knowing he will not be the only child anymore but I believe that our love for the 2 kids will be 200% and not 50% each. can't wait for my second child to be born to witness the sibling bond. although challenging but it should be fulfilling ♡

hello. I'm in your exact boat now. I found out I was preg when my firstborn is 13 months. it was a planned pregnancy but I still can't help feeling sad. sad that my time with my firstborn will be very limited soon. I'm now trying to spend as much time as I can with her. I'm currently at 8 weeks, and im gradually getting excited at how she's gonna be a great big sister, and that she will have a playmate with a close age gap. hopefully they will remain close throughout their lives. I do understand how you feel that she might get less love and attention, but I'm sure we will love both the same, if not, more! ❤️

similar to my case but mine... i got to know that im pregnant with #3 (unplanned) i wanted to focus on my #1 & #2 instead. at first, i couldn't accept the fact and even considered on giving up for adoption. i did emailed the adoption center too but at second trimester i changed my mind because the moment i heard her heartbeat (it's a girl) my heart melt. god's gift. i accepted it at last. my 1st just turned 2 years old and my 2nd is 8 months old :) i thought i couldn't handle them but i did thou...

Thank you mummies for your replies. It was really nice to see all this positive replies. After much consideration we decided to just keep the baby. Im at my 20weeks currently and my 1st have been such a loving sister. We have been telling her abt 2nd and she is constantly touching my tummy to “sayang” her lil sister. Once again thank you! I pray may all of you here have a smooth pregnancy. Stay strong mummies! ❤️❤️

I'm having my 2nd child and my girl is 22 months old. Its a planned pregnancy as we want her to have a companion and someone to play tgt. We often see her playing alone and find it sad. I can't wait for my 2nd child to be born and watch them bond tgt. I believe all will be well. 😊

U May can think positively as she got accompany so early .. instead of playing alone . Ur daughter will turn 2 by new bie comes so don’t worry .. just enjoy the phase

I'm pregnant when my baby girl is 11 months old. I'm excited for the two kids to mingle together. you can still continue loving both. love unconditionally

Baby is a gift from the heaven. We should embrace it and give our very best to dote and shower with them lots of love. I am sure you can do it mummy
