Ours won't be quite that close, but I'm 38 1/2 weeks pregnant with a 16-month-old. I'm a little nervous about how my first will react to not being the baby any more,  bur I guess it's like everything else in parenthood. You just figure it out as you go. Haha

I'm 40.3 days pregnant with baby #2. Our first is 17 months. We planned it this way. We'd like our kids to be close together, and we'd like to be done having babies by the time we're in our early 30's. Since we'd like 4 kids and I'm already 26, we don't have a lot of time! Haha

Everyone plans their family differently, and there's no wrong or right way to space your children. The next few years may be crazy for you, but I'm sure once they're grown you wouldn't wish it any other way.

I am 6 months pregnant and I have a 15 months baby. At frost I was sacred that she would not like the baby when it comes because she won't be the only baby anymore. But after a while she start to pull up my shirt and say baby and hug and kisses my tummy. I think you will be fine.

Yes. I found out I was pregnant when my baby turned 8 months old. And I'm happy but at the same time nervous by having two babies that young.
