Hi mummies,
I have a very strong feeling I'm pregnant with baby #2. I know most mummies will be over the moon but I am freaking out!! Reason being is my little boy is only 10months old and my finance and I are planning our wedding which is supposed to be November next year and we have so much going on with our house. I haven't take a test, not sure why I thinks it's coz it will confirm it all and make it feel soo much more real. I guess I'm scared coz of the age gap between my little boy and just not being the right timing. Has similiar situation happened to you and how did you cope with your babies age gaps if they are fairly close together? Thanks in advance

I found out I was pregnant with number 2 when my 1st was only 6 months old. In That same day my partner lost his licence (points) and his job. It was hard to process at the time but it all works out. And your little man will have someone close to his age which is always a good thing. Together you accomplish anything :) good luck beautiful IM
i found out i was pregnant when #1 was 5 months old. i was already 4 week pregnant at the time, and we had started our wedding plans. that was 2 1/2 years ago, and we had to put our wedding planning on hold (we're STILL not married lol). so our two boys are 14 months apart, and it's hectic, but we manage, and so will you =) it sounds cliched, but you will find a way to make the craziness all work.
as for the wedding thing, we had to put it on hold as with a new baby coming, we just couldnt afford it. and now that we have 2 children, for me, it's changed the whole marriage thing - i feel like we have this awesome little family, and there's no need to get married. if we didnt have any children, then i'd still probably want a wedding, but its like kids put everything into perspective and ive realised getting married or not getting married isnt really that important or that much of a big deal. just wait and see - you may change your mind also, or you may still want to get married, in which case, again, you'll find a way to make it all work, it may just take a little longer.
good luck =)
I have a gap of 11 months between my youngest 2 kids. They have grown up almost like twins.. Their bond is very strong and they know that they always have someone to watch out for each other... As for your wedding and anything else if it is meant to happen it will and you will find a way to cope.. The best advice i can give is have a routine and stick to it as best you can.. Good luck with everything and enjoy.
My boys are 21 months apart they don't always get along but that's what brothers do. My daughter and eldest son are 3 years apart and they fight just as much. It is hard at times but its great seeing how close they are. No matter how much of an age gap it's always going to be an adjustment but don't worry it gets easier as time goes on.
I'm in the exact situation you are right now. I have a 9 month old and am 10 weeks pregnant. My wedding is set for March 2015 and can't be changed so we are just going with the flow and taking things as they come :)
