WDYT of TTC 6 months after birth

[YoYo]

I wouldn't call it selfish, just your choice.

It's not my idea of a good time, but hey, that's my choice

Go for it if that is what you want

My sister and I are 18 months apart and so are my brother and I, we loved it growing up, we were always together, having adventures and my sister and I became best friends as teenagers. We are planning on ttc number 2 when this bub is about 6 months old, saying that though I may change my mind depending on how the birth goes!
I say go for it, it's not selfish at all.

Go for it! It isn't selfish at all. Actually I loved having a sister around my age (13 months apart). Good luck with TTC!

if thats wat u and ur hubby want to do then do it! stuff everyone else.
We have and we're so glad we did

Tell them that's 16 months of one-on-one time that baby number 2 will never get! I think the benefits of having a sibling WAY outweigh any negatives.

Everyone has an opinion, wish some would learn to keep it to themselves! Do whatever makes you happy!

My nieces are 12months apart and they are so close....she said it was hard at the start because they were both in nappies, both on bottles and said it was double of everything...but now she loves it...

Dont worry about others...you just do what suits you and you're partner and what you're happy with because at the end of the day its you're lives....

My 2 are almost 19 months apart. I didn't once consider it selfish - how very odd! I considered it a gift, to give to my child a sibling. My DD will be 3 in a few weeks and I'll have a 3 year old and a 4 year old - until DS turns 5 in March..LOL!

If it's right for you then Woo Hoo bring on bubba number 2

We have 4 years between ours but that worked for us.

If your DH and yourself want it, go for it! It's not selfish and you will know what's best for your family

[Enchanted]

I don't think it is selfish at all! It sounds like you and your DH have had a good chat about it and are happy with your decision, so go for it!
We do things for us, not anyone else. So don't let anyone try and tell you that you are doing the wrong thing.
Listen and take on board what you want but discard the rest
