Desperate to be pregnant again but not ready for another baby

[Blah11]

I really, really want to be pregnant again, but I don't really want another baby just yet. I'm enjoying Amelie too much to even think about having to share my time with a sibling.
Its so annoying Why do I have such an urge to be pregnant again? Do you think its just the excitement of being pregnant and the attention you get? Idk Forcing myself not to TTC as OH would quite happily try for another right now. He actually said to me the other day 'how long do you have to go back to work for before you go on mat leave again? Better to get all our kids out of the way'

I feel the EXACT same way

I want to be pregnant, and I wouldn't even mind another baby. It's the taking effectively 12 months (post natal too) out of your life that I don't want right now. The only part about pregnancy I disliked was feeling like my life was on hold. I never minded the sleepless nights, discomfort, etc.

OH wants to TTC now too, it's just me saying no! (for reasons I've posted on here really. career and home stuff)

the funny thing is I hattttttted being pregnant at the time and did nothing but moan!

If I accidently got pregnant right now then I would be delighted but its really not the right time for us at all. Not to mention BFing Amelie means Ive only had 2 periods since she was born and Im not ready to stop BFing her either. Oh well, just a year until I can TTC. Not long...

i think it is the excitement and all the wonderfullness thats comes with pregnancy and birth hon. i no i can't wait to be pregnant again, and experience the labour (even though mine was awful) and newborn stages again! though like you, i am so not ready to have anyone! i too don't want to share maddi yet and i enjoy the fact that we have our own routine and i'm not ready for the change yet! i get so excited about baby no 2, and sometimes i think, yeah lets have one now! then my reason takes over i remember while i'm waiting

I could have written the same post, in fact i was about to. I can't wait to have another but know its the wrong time. I think i'm just impatient!

See I was a nutter who loved being pregnant, and dreaded it being over

Hmmm well i'm at the kinda wanting another one, but i also dont want to share my time with Tabs I hated being preggers and am still dreading it

 

[Blah11]

Seems as if its quite a common reason for WTT. Ah well, our LOs are still so little we have plenty of time. I'm only 21 afterall so atleast I cant hear my clock ticking!

I'm not actually worried about sharing my time, I think Savannah is going to love growing up with a sibling close in age. I'm scared about having a toddler and a newborn though... and the labour, lol

 

[lauren-kate]

I think I'm the other way around.. I'd like to have another baby, but really want to skip through all the being pregnant and labour stage.

Im sooooo broody atm and would love to get pregnant but another part of me thinks... looking after two children with such a small age gap would be soo hard!! But i also would like to have a small age gap between them!!

We want to get married, move house too so not an ideal time but i cant stop thinking about having another!! xx

LOL.This is the same as my feelings and love the time spent with my youngest, who's not in school yet. Still struggling with WTTC to, but when I think about the reasons for waiting it puts all them feelings to rest. So glad their are others here that feel that same eagerness yet patience. Love being pregnant but could do away with the m/s.

I loved being pregnant and can't wait to be again. It is soo special, and just such an amazing feeling. A friend of a friend just announced she is pregnant, and I am a bit jealous.

Just found this thread and am dragging it back up to post!
I am feeling the same way. It is far more practical to wait, but my body is really craving another baby.
I think practical is going to win, though!
