You could have convinced later then you thought. My first was 5lbs 12oz when she was born at 38 weeks 6 days. They tried to find anything that was wrong with her but it was my first baby and she was healthy. I carried my second to 41 weeks 1 days and she was 8lbs 2oz.

And the othet thing im worried about is with my 1st the doctors thought i had growth restriction where my daughter stop growing they said after doing an ultrasound that she was healthy an would be a good size 7 pound baby...my daughter came out on her due date weighing 5 pounds so the doctors at the point do tthink she did stop growing so my concern is this baby is going to stop growing im already 21 weeks still not really showing and this is my second so i feel i should be showing. With my first i never even got big i looked about 6 months pregnant so i really hope this baby keeps growing and that being pregnant back to back wont hurt him

Yea it took me until last week to tell my family im grown and have my own place but yet i still feel like everyone has an opinion even though its my situation i know my family will love my son the way they love my daughter just wasnt quite sure on how tough it will be. I can only imagine 3 im so tired the last few weeks and with my daughter she still wakes up in the night and is learning how to through tantrums lol im also in school on tuesdays and thursday i feel like i just rather sleep all day then do anything. But then my daughter will smile and all i see is her huge dimples and reminds me of why i love being a mom. Its also frustrating because the town i live in has a lot of racism still and my kids are mixed, im white and dads black so we hear things alot due to our color and now just giving people more reason to hate since im back to back pregnant. Very judgemental place we live in.

I got pregnant with my second when my first was 3 months. That's what I meant to say. Also I am 21 years old and will be turning 22 before or after this baby is born. My due date is September 2nd and my birthday is August 21st.

After I had my second I got pregnant when she was 3 months old healthy pregnancy healthy birth. I got pregnant with my third when my second was 9 months old. So I will have 3 kids under 3. Two back to back pregnancies. Lots of women will probably get judgemental but that's life. Everyone is judging/thinking they know everything. You just got to hold your head high and ignore nasty comments.

Omgness yes i have herd so many negative things and no im not happy to be pregnant back to back but babies are blessings so i cant wait to meet my son im just so worried about how hard it will be. I grew up with my best friend having 3 before she was 21 and she made it look so easy but even she broke down and lost her kids so im scared of being a failure to my kids. I have an amazing boyfriend who is so wonderful with our daughter but two babies omg im losing my mind already lol

Well I have a 2yr old son and my daughter is 6 months. Im currently 15 weeks pregnant. Theres not really much I can say. I seem to wonder if anyone else is having a baby back to back. People can get very judgemental.
