2nd baby

For those with 2 + children, or pregnant with second, did it take you longer to conceive the second time? With our first we got pregnant the first month of trying, this time we’ve been trying for 3 months without success. Even though I know it’s not a long time I can’t help but feel a bit disheartened :(

Were you ready to have a baby at your age?

What age did you have your first child? Comment below your experience from when you had your first child to having your second( if you have more than one) or you can comment if you have just 1 like me.

Wanting another?

Anyone else starting to really want another? I couldn't do 2 under 2 so I've planned on holding off until this baby is 2.5-3 years old before starting to try again.. but part of me also doesn't want to wait that long

Do you ever really feel done with having babies?

I’m a mum of two and ever since my second was born (she’s 7 months) I just don’t feel done. After I had my first I was 100% sure that I would only have one more but now that I’ve had my second I’m just really enjoying my role as a mother so much and I feel very much like I want to have a third! Do people really eve...

Never thought I'd make it this far

With my first, I lasted a month because of the severe engorgement and latching pain. But I've made it past 4 weeks and I'm so proud of my body 😭❤️

Did you tell children you were trying for another baby?

Another mum asked if I was 'one & done' today and when I said no, she then asked if I had told my 3 year old, we were trying for a baby. I said no because we haven't and it's got me thinking, is it something people tell or not?

More children?

I was so set on one and done, but I guess what they say is right.. eventually you might want another one. How many of you “one and done” mamas are considering another baby?🥹 I definitely wanna wait until my daughter is three to try. She is almost 15 months now. It goes so damn fast. But then part of me is scared to…

Unable to settle baby

I feel I've tried everything to settle my baby over the last 5 weeks since I had him and nothing seems to work. I'm feeling down and like a failure as I'm unable to settle my own child so if anyone has any tips for settling a baby that very much hates to be put down, please let me know x
