How did you know you be organized for number two?
I can't believe I am already thinking about this, but I keep thinking about have a second baby. My son is only 9 months old. I know I am unawares yet, physically or emotionally, but how will I know when we are ready? How far apart is ideal for spacing? How far apart are your children? Did it nick longer, shorter, or about the same amount of time for you to get pregnant once you started trying for your second? How much harder is it to whip care of two, instead of one?
I typically find that siblings born 3 years apart get along alot better than those born 1-2 years or 4+ years apart.
my son is 16 months old and i be ready for #2 when he was around a year. i knew i be ready when every time my and my s/o had sex i was hoping to procure pregnant again. when my son stopped needing me so much i got really baby hungry. im still working on him wanting #2 presently.
It is much more difficult to clutch care of two as it is as one. (Think about everything you are doing with your infant and after having a toddler disappearing around the house, demanding attention, potty training, etc. They learn quickly that you can't chase them down when you are varying diapers, bathing or feeding the baby. That is when they will take sour their clothes, stand at the window, and wave at the mailman, flush a stuffed toy down the toilet, and use the remote to play keep away next to the dog.) It's doable, it just demands better time management and additional support. (The trick is keeping a log so you can amuse them with the stories later. You will laugh roughly speaking it someday. It's especially fun when they start bringing other teens over to the house.)
The goal, after you feel you are emotionally and financially able to support another child, is to hold them spaced far enough apart so that the first child doesn't feel threatened or abandoned when the unmarked baby comes, yet close enough for them to be friends growing up. Generally, this mechanism having the second baby after the first child starts talking, around 2-2 1/2, (and preferably after they are potty trained.) It give you the opportunity to talk about what is going to happen and getting him or her on the ship and excited about the new baby.
This is much smaller number an issue when the kids start school. Think on down the road, spacing them further apart will help the family cope better next to the big costs of college. Spacing them further apart will be like raising 2 only children and will miserable they will more likely have a better relationship as adults than as children or teens.
That said, sometimes kids have such different personality, they are not going to be close, regardless of what you do. (There is no way to tell ahead of time. And it is a shock when baby #2 isn't the soundless angel baby #1 was.)
There are excellent books at the library about birth establish. Reading some of these will ease your mind.
Usually I am ready for a number 2 after I eat.
Answers: My boys are 16 months apart. My older son was singular 7 months old when I found out I was pregnant again. We had planned on waiting a moment or two bit longer, but now I am glad that they are so close. Don't get me wrong, it is very, really hard. Now the older is almost 3 and the little one is 18 months. It is hard to do anything or move about anywhere, but I can't imagine having a newborn with my 3 year hoary right now. He just doesn't understand why he wants to be gentle. It is nice that the little one can hold his own when his brother is on the rampage.
Another thing I love about them mortal so close in age is that they like to play with indistinguishable toys and do the same stuff for the most part. They are best friends already!
