[quote=Anonymous]I was in your shoes 10 years ago, except I was about a year older. We had tentatively planned on only having one, but we loved the experience so much that we quickly decided to have another. (We were exhausted and had lots of trouble with breastfeeding, etc. but we were high on baby love!)

Anyway, with my Dr approval, we started trying at 6 months pp and got pregnant around her first birthday. They are 20 months apart so I did have two under two. Those first 6 months or so were hard, but not impossible. And they were so cute! I loved snuggling both babies!  Now that they are both older, it’s the best. They are two grades apart and are really good playmates.

To put it in numbers: I was 36 when we started trying, 37 when I got pregnant and just turned 38 when I have birth to my first. I gave birth to my second just before my 40th birthday.

Until you start trying, you have no idea how long things are going to take so I suggest talking with your husband and figuring out the minimum age gap you would be ok with and start then. The rest is out of your hands. [/quote]
