Just had a baby!

I had my baby just 7months ago and know I'm about to have another one! I'm scared but at the same time I know that   this baby is still a blessings! I haven't told anyone yet but I know when I do I'm gonna get criticized. On top of that I just started a job after not having one for almost 3 yrs! I really didn't have a question just wanted to vent but if you have anything that you would like to say or any advice please post! Thanks reading!

Well CONGRATULATIONS!! I couldn't do it, but my mom did. My brother was born April 22, 1979 and I was born March 31 the following year. Both full term babies. Not even a year apart.

Oddly. Im 33 week along right now with my 4th and we are talking about and planning on another quick pregnancy.
My husband and I pay for all our kids, are self sufficient and most of all it our choice. Dont worry about what anyone says.
Until they pay or care for your kids they dont get to have an opinion about your life. Congrats mommy! !

My two youngest are only 10 mo apart. Should of been 1year and a day but she came early. Due to stress on my body. So i say take it easy N worry about having a health baby first who cares what others think as long as u feel blessed. Im due again in march with my 6 kids and family and friend act the same asking stupid ?s and telling me how i dont need any more. But i feel as u every child is a blessing and im happy god chose this blessing for me. Just hoping my body can handle it better this time around. Then my tubes are being closed.

No criticism, just a question.  I heard that it's not healthy to have babies back to back, that you need to give your body time to recuperate.  Is that true, I don't think I could do the back to back, I'd like to have them within two years or so, but this pregnancy is wreaking havoc on my body as it is lol.

Thanks b4b, this will actually be my 3rd child and you are so right. I'm trying to keep negativity away from me but its hard when the people that you know you have to tell are possibly your parents and they are the ones that will criticize you the most!

Don't let anyone steal your joy in your baby. I am expecting my fourth and we received a lot of criticism with our third, so I am not telling those who stress me out or were ugly the last time. If they want to know why they weren't told later the answer will be easy, 'you spread misery not joy and we didn't want to deal with your unfortunate disposition.' Best of luck, keep your chin up and enjoy your babies!

Thanks a lot! I guess I just feel overwhelmed right now. I'm a receptionist so I won't be lifting or doing anything to stressful. Thanks for your take on this.
