Do you ever feel fully ready?
My son is 18 months old and I feel like I'm finally fully back to myself again.
I'd also like to have another child though, not too far apart in age, and I'm 35...
I was anxious for a lot of my pregnancy due to a previous miscarriage, and the birth of my son was pretty traumatic so the idea of diving back into all of that again is quite daunting.
Do you think I should just bite the bullet and did you ever feel 'fully' ready to try for your next child?

I didn’t feel fully ready but we knew we wanted to have them close in age and did just feel like it was time - so so glad we did! 💕
I felt fully ready because I wanted them close in age and to be honest I wanted the hard first part done and dusted 🫣 that way I could get back to feel myself again.
I totally understand though, I’ve had a similar story and it is hard. But for me seeing my little ones faces make it so worth it 💕
I wouldn’t say I felt fully ready but knew I’d be okay if it happened. We started truing when my son hit 1 year old. I knew I wanted a short age gap. Took a little while and I fell pregnant when my son was 2. Now his sisters due in 8 weeks🩷
