Second Pregnancy and Career?

How important is it to you to have kids close in age? Maybe give yourself a few years to get some momentum going at work.

I was thinking the same as Taylor. What if you did wait another year???

I think for sure we won't be pregnant this year, but I'm a planner and like to think ahead 😁
I say your son is 10 months. Maybe wait until after his 2nd birthday to try? Depending how okay you are with a 3 ish year age gap.
I say go for it! It’s easier honestly when they’re babies. I just had two little ones back to back while completing my masters. My hubby is also SAHD and so it was very tough on me but I did take a very abbreviated maternity leave and kept chugging along. I feel like the most important piece is communicating the extra needs you’ll have (emotional and otherwise) to your mans.
There’s never a bad time to have a baby, and you’ll never regret having one- but there are some times that are better than others so you need to consider your age, other aspects of your life, etc. Good luck!
I'd like to ideally have them 3 years or less apart - my husband is in his mid-forties so we don't want to wait too long!
