Hi BekZ
My eldest daughter was 9 and a half months old when i fell pregnant with my second. I was still doing a couple of breastfeeds a day when she was conceived.
My hubby was really keen to have them close together, but I kept thinking 'How can I love another baby as much as i love this one?".
My eldest was 17and a half months old when her little sister was born. I don't remember it being difficult, although i am sure there were hectic days. I just made sure that i always had plenty for my eldest to do when I was breastfeeding etc.
I can't seem to remember having any difficulties being pregnant, except maybe going to my ob appointments. She would always try to touch everything, and we would often be in the waiting room for up to an hour, (it was a very small waiting room!!!) I just made sure i had lots of snacks available.
My youngest is now 3, and we are TTC #3. I have thoughts of ' how will my girls feel with me having another baby? will they be jealous?
In the end though, if you love your children, and let them know how precious they are to you, it will all be ok.
