Brett and I decided to get married. And as he is a year away from 30 he wants another baby. Rylan is only going to be 5 months on the 2nd. im affraid that my body will never look okay again if I go from one baby to another. But we are trying anyways. Im aslo young enough I think that recovery will be easyer now rather than waiting. Brett already has a 7 year old son, that LOVES Rylan. He asked me the other day "what time the baby was going to grow so he could play with him" and he helps get his bottles and cereal and diapers. He just one buys happy helping little guy, but im afraid he will be jealous of a new baby, as he is jealous of me and his dad. So just wondering what you all think. I will up date you all soon, as I should be able to find out if im pregnant soon.

megan i know he wants a child but they reccommend waititng at least like a year to get pregnant again. brett may be almost 30 but he should want you to have a healthy pregnancy. it can be very dangerous to get pregnant again this soon not only for you but also for the child. have you told him this? im sure that if he knew he would want to wait and give you time to fully recover. -- Kyra

No problem Megan. your such an active and caring part of this community and i would hate for something to happen to you on account of something like that. Its good that you are talking to Brett about it tonight. since its only 7 months, im sure he will be willing to wait a bit longer and not take the chance. Good luck! --- Kyra

My friend spaced all three of her children 4 yrs. apart and it worked out for her. Not only was each child old enough to understand and help out but she was able to let her body heal and get back into shape to have a easy preg. and a healthy baby. 30 isn't old now if he was say 50 ..lol... that would be a diff. story. You guys are still on the youger side and you've got time. Haveing two little ones in diapers at the same time is hard and expensive. Why not wait until your new baby is two...then try. That gives your body plenty of time to get back in shape...and give you two time to have nights alone before adding a new additon to your family.
