Is anyone else pregnant & have a baby?

Cherbare · Oct 11th, 2011, 20:24 PM

I'm pregnant with my fourth but there's quite a large gap between my first 2 and these 2. My oldest are 9 and 12 and I have a 5 1/2 month old baby girl. We wanted to have our babies close together, I wasn't really expecting this close but more 2 months from now but we're super happy!

It took us over 2 years to get preggo the first time and then we lost our baby boy at 22 weeks, we ended up getting pregnant first cycle after that with our baby girl. This time we were told that the best fertility is within the first 6 months and then it's still pretty good up to the first year. We decided September to NTNP but there was only one possible chance it could have worked and amazingly it did. I was really expecting it to take a few months and I actually thought we would have missed ovulation but apparently not! LOL

So anyway I'm really just looking to chat with some ladies that are having babies close together. It would be nice to have someone to talk to, especially since my whole family thinks I'm crazy and aren't suportive ever anyway. Is there anyone out there in a similar situation?

i am pregnant with baby number 4 too, i have a 9yro, 4.5yro and a 3yro, we are keeping this baby a secret till after xmas which will make us 18weeks plus pregnant, we are hoping to have another baby straigt away after this one is born to have them close together like the other 2.

there is 19months between my 4.5 & 3yro, and that was a great age gap, i found thoug as i was raising my 2 deaf sisters at the time which meant i had 5kids under 6 in the same house, that we had a very strict and solid structured routine with the children which we have still followed through with to this day. if it werent for the routine, then i honestly have no idea how i wouldve coped.

I do... or did. Can I call him a baby now he's 1? :Cry:

Fin was 10 months when we fell. There will be a 19-20 month gap xx

I would have been due in 4 weeks and there would have been a 2 year gap between my boys and with this one there will be a 2.5 year gap x

Oh wow it's great to hear that I'm not the only one! I've been getting a lot of crap from people who've already found out we're expecting so it's nice to have people to relate to. I wasn't planning on telling everyone until a lot later but my belly popped out so fast everyone started asking questions, now most people who are close to me know just because I couldn't hide it. I think it'll be great to have them so close together! My first 2 were 3 years apart and my daughter was so upset to no longer be the only child. We went through a lot of stress with her acting out while I had a bratty baby boy that woke up every 2 hours for 8 months and then still didn't sleep through the night till he was 2. I'm hoping that at this age my baby girl won't be so jealous when the new one comes along and that they'll be able to play together instead of being enemies from the start.

Good luck with everything ladies! How is everyone feeling? I've been a little nauseaus with almost no appetite, luckily my little Caelyn is an amazing baby and sleeps 11 hours straight at night so I'm atleast getting some sleep.
