How young is your youngest child?

[bluecathy1978]

Hello lovely ladies!

Just wondering how old your youngest child is?

I am pregnant with baby # 4 and my youngest is 6 and a half months old!

I sometimes feel like I must be mad and worry about how I will cope with two children so young but then I think how lucky I am to have these children bless my life

How old is your youngest or have you had children close together and what are your tips on survival???

boy 4 and girl 16 months, the 4 yr old has just started school which helps a little, im struggling with the sickness but know i can cope once it stops.

I have one, he's 21 months. I already am struggling. Too ill to give him enough attention and jealous of DH playing with him and taking care of him.

I'm not pregnant but I had my second when my eldest was 21 months old. I found it pretty hard work but it has been worth it! Maddy is 4 next month and Sophie is 2 and they are so close. They have their arguements but they have an amazing bond. It is just getting easier now (sophie has been a madam sleeping!!).

Congrats to you who are pregnant xx

Lo is 10 months old! To be honest I'm struggling, had hyperemesis since week 6 and I'm so drained constantly!!

I only have one daughter, she's 9,5 months old. She'll be 18 months when this one arrives. She's in daycare though, as I am back at work, so I think her being in a good daily routine helps.

I am pregnant with number four too and I also feel crazy Anabel is 10 months, Meg is 2 and Fleur is 7 when this baby is born Meg will be almost 3, Fleur almost 8 and Anabel well not even 18 months

We are on #7! Kids are 14, 11, 9, 5, 4 and baby is 8months. Dont worry we find ways of coping. Congrats!!

 

[Tryingfora4th]

My youngest will be almost 8 when this one is born, thats my biggest age gap.
My smallest age gap is between my 1st 2 kids, the gap is 11 months! lol
My son was born before my daughter turned one and I was only 18 at the time (oops hehe)

Please try not to worry about how you will cope, because you just WILL because we are the stronger sex!

This one is #5 for me. By the time the baby comes, my kids will be 18, 14, 8 and 7. My youngest 2 right now are 10 1/2 months apart. It was a little rough in the beginning but we managed. It'll be nice having the 7 year gap between my youngest and the new one. It's like starting all over again.

 

[Sevenladybugs]

Oh wow Canadianmom we're in the same boat LOL. My youngest is going to be 9 1/2 when this new one arrives.

 

[gemm]

my youngest is 4 in November, and my eldest is 6 next week!

Having two close together is magic!! They grow sooo close and play together well! (and occasionally fight like cat and dog ) It'll be tough to start with but it does get easier... (or maybe you just get used to it!)

My little guy is also 10 months old. He will be 17 or 18 months when baby #2 is born. Hubby and I reasoned that it would be a little easier having them in diapers at the same time. That way, when one is potty trained we won't have to start all over with the second. Also, my hubby and his brother are a year and a half apart and they are super close!

 

[bluecathy1978]

Wow!

Thanks for all your replies. I am looking forward to this pregnancy now I feel a lot better. M/S and fatigue just about subsiding now.

The only thing I feel guilty about is maybe not having enough time to spend with Isaac once the baby is here. He is quite hard work at the moment and likes lots of attention and cuddles from mummy. Think he is in for a shock
