From the beginning we knew we wanted a 2yr age gap, so when DS was 1 we started trying. They ended up being 19mths apart because we fell pregnant on the 2nd attempt and DD came early.

Maya - my cycle returned after 3 months, but I don't think I'd trust nature on that score.. no way would I have wanted another that soon! hehe.

BabyMama - I wouldn't worry or think about it too much, you'll know if the cluckiness returns Age gaps don't really matter, so just do it whenever you're ready

FWIW my DS wasn't sleeping through and was still feeding to sleep. We coped. I ended up feeding him through the pregnancy and tandem feeding for about 6 or 7 months. That's an experience the kids & I wouldn't have had if I'd waited until he'd weaned before TTCing the next. So there's pros and cons to every situation, you just have to go with what feels good for you

Mel - we're still deciding what to do about #3. We'll probably have a bigger age gap between #2 & #3.
