considering a second

So my baby is 14 months and i have been considering a second child for a while. Im thinking of trying again around the time she is 18 months which would mean a 27 month age gap. My first baby will be 2 years and 3 months. Has anyone got a similar dynamic and how hard is it. what are the pros and cons?

My girl is 14 months old too, I personally am going to try for a 2nd baby next year as for me it's a bit too soon...and I didn't have a good experience last time 😅

I’ve got this age gap between my two. Now they’re getting older it’s the perfect age gap - I found it hard at the start as my eldest wasn’t attending childcare so I had them both with me full time for the 9 months of maternity (as my little girl didn’t attend nursery until she was 3). If a grandparent looked after her some of the time or she went to nursery it would’ve been fine!

Ive been thinking exactly the same age gap wise so following to see what everyone says 😊

I have 23 months between mine. It's so lovely. I am so glad I had them close together. The hardest part is not having two pairs of hands and mum guilt if they are both crying that you have to do one before the other. Also missing alone time with your first born. They absolutely love each other though. Xxx

I’ve got a 13 month old and a 3 month old and I thought it was gonna be harder than it has been😂 but it’s been a dream!!! Having them so close in age was probably the best thing I could’ve done. My 13 month old don’t have a scoobies so he doesn’t get jealous but he’s so affectionate towards his little sister at the same time. They’ve both had a night time routine so from about 2 months (for both of them) they’ve slept through from 8pm-8am! My advice? Do it!đŸ„čxxx
