Starting to try for the next baby

Hey

Anyone else ready and what are you doing to prep?

I’m 6 months PP and just totally in my element so in love with this phase of my life and have been mentally ready for a little while now to start trying for baby number 2 but know it’s best give your body a break and the last few weeks my baby’s been sleeping really well too so I feel SO GOOD!

Hi, I’m a second time mum. And I would never want to dampen anyone’s spirits. But I would seriously let your body heal before trying for another baby. Unsure how you had your baby via section etc. but if you had a section you need to wait over a year. Your body takes a long time to go back to normal and obviously it is your choice but I have a 3 year old and a almost 7 month old and I can only speak for myself but I’m so glad I had that gap between them so I had lots of time just me and my son. What works for you works for you but please remember that your body has been through something so mega, you should let it heal ❤️
