My body feels fully healed and my body is craving another baby biologically!
I know it is not the best economical timing nor the best timing spacewise when we live in a 2-bed but part of me is urging for another child
I absolutely hated being pregnant and I am not looking forward to it whenever we decide to have our second baby - but my biological clock and my own baby makes me say; YUP, COME ON GIVE ME ANOTHER ONE!
Does anyone else have this at 6 months postpartum? 😂 best way I can describe it is like when I was addicted to smoking and craved a cigarette (horrible comparison but it is the best way I can describe it)

I feel the same!! I had such a traumatic birth with a emergency c-section and a preemie. Yet its like my brain has forgotten that and is begging for a second 🤣🤣 my very scarred husband is like nope I need recovery time and wants to wait at least 2 years to even have the chat for the second. But that addiction is screaming at me 🤣🤣 i totally get this!!!! If we could do the baby part without the pregnancy and birth bit I would have a house full 🤣🤣

haha yes, same! i just had my second, there’s 23 months between him and my first, but i’ve got such an urge for a third 😂 we’d agreed on two but i keep telling him “you never know!” 😂 my sister in law is pregnant and i’m actually jealous!
hormones are ridiculous!

Im not sure if im the odd one out here i not, but had my second and thought nope, im definitely done😂

I was 6 months pp when I got pregnant with my second and now have a 15 month age gap. Please for the sake of your body wait until your at least a year pp. You might feel healed but two pregnancies that close together are really hard work and you can't even rest the way you did the first time as you're looking after a baby still.
I wouldn't change it for the world but I'm aiming for more of a 21 month gap this time to let my body heal and get healthier again

Absolutely not! 😀 My February baby is my second and they have a two year gap....if i was younger I would have waited at least 4 years for a second...it's very hard if you don't rely on relatives or grandparents nearby because essentially they are both babies. But everyone decides for themselves ☺️ if that's what you want then hope it works out!

I have a lot of respect for people who have kids with smaller gap than 2 years, truly superheroes 😁.
My husband and I are very much done with our two little ones, don't gete wrong we absolutely adore them and can't imagine our family without them but it's just hard at the beginning at least with two very small children, now I see glimpses of things getting a bit better but there are still days when I go to bed absolutely shattered 😁
The transition from one to two is tough. Now I feel like I can look after one with eyes closed 😀.
Good luck though, it will happen how it's supposed to happen.

I had that urge at 6 months pp with my oct 24 girly, currently feeding my 6 month old boy back to sleep 🤣

My Feb baby is my first and I have felt the same since about 2 months pp 😅
