Back to Back Pregnancies!

[pennysbored]

So it seems like there are more of us back to back pregnancy ladies on here than I would have first imagined!
What everybody's experiences so far? Any one living the dream already (already had your second)? Planned or Oopsie-baby?
Whats everyones stories?

My doctor really pointed out the bright sides for me. I was expecting the lecture too, but actually, the whole office was pretty reassuring.

all the docs/midwives/HVs have tol dme all the positives too, i dont think i got a single negative thing said by them!

the doc even told me about a GP friend of his who got pregnant like 7 weeks after giving birth...cos she thought cos she was BF she couldnt get pregnant

6 weeks! That beat me out! I only had 8 weeks, I thought that was about as close as you could get!

My story?
Well, I had my daughter December 26, had my first AF March first, and it would seem that its my last for awhile. I didn't realize right off the bat, I figured that a) I was exhausted because I was up in the night with LO, hadn't had a really good rest in weeks, and b) my Af wouldn't come back on schedule right away because of hormones regulating and all that.
Was I wrong.
After about 7 weeks I started to have my suspicions, so I bought a test and what do you know? Haha, the positive line came up nice and bright before the control line. That was new. The doctor confirmed it, had a dating scan 2 weeks later (dates were smack on, guess it wasn't that long before I was back on schedule) and now, well, I'm going through the all too familiar motions.

I want stories here ladies!

Wow! High five to you, hon! How have you found it? whats your story?

 

[mummy to be]

wow you ladies are awesome.... i wanted to have another baby when Layla was about 10 months old... but i am not sure that i can do it anymore..... eeeep i am just to scared to go through the labour again.... It was a long and very painful process for me.... 34 hours!!!! OUCHY!!!

I wish you all good luck and hope that you have soooo much fun with 2 or 3 little ones I cant wait to see pics

 

[pennysbored]

Thanks not so Mummy to be!
I still tear up a little when I think of giving birth again. But on the other hand, I'm also considering not using any pain killers this time around because I didn't have time last time, and I didn't die, so maybe this time I won't either. I had a REALLY fast labour though, so I'm not shutting down the option.
