Pregnant with my 4th baby.

I have 3 children...and my youngest is just turning 10 months.  Yesterday, my husband and I just found out we are pregnant again...my calculations is that I'm about 5 weeks into my 4th pregnancy.  This 4th pregnancy is a complete  surprise. We are very worry...being that we have a 10 month baby that needs our full attention.  My question is..can getting pregnant too soon cause some complications with this pregnancy??

I think the main concern with getting pregnant quickly is that you tend to be deficient of nutrients compared to what you normally would be. Make sure your eating a balanced diet and taking vitamins. I wouldn't be worried. Congratulations :)
