Aa
overwhelmed!
I just found out I'm pregnant with my 4th baby, which is a complete shock. My youngest is only 7 months.... I feel so distant and not happy this go around. Not to mention completeley scared to have kids this close in age. Anyone else have kids this close? I should add my middle child has lots of medical issues and is Autistic as well...
Thanks. Im more worried about my wild child (my daughter lol)
She is the center of attention. And she says no baby lol. My son wants a baby. He actually thinks he has one in his belly as well lol

My son is almost 4 and he has done great with his baby sister! He was a little hesitant at first but now he is SO protective of her, and loves to help out.. and I'll say its a GREAT help having someone run to grab a diaper or wipes (and loves to do it, because I sure don't haha), I think the age gap between my kids was great so I wouldn't worry about that!
My son has needs. And I got pregnant when he was 8 months old.
It worked out just fine. They are best friends and he loves his sister. They are now 3 and 4(nearly 5) and I'm pregnant with my 3rd. I worry at times I will be stretched thin cause my son needs me so much. But he learns a lot from his sister it was the best thing for him. He picks up tons of her speech.
Its going to be really hard but you will get threw it.
I'm more worried now having a baby when their so old.

You'll get through it, at the end of the day it's probably going to be super hard and exhausting, but you'll do great. If you can deal with the struggles of having a child with a disability, you've done the toughest job there is, you can get through anything. Everything happens for a reason and although I think things through TOO much, I get too scared to think of two children so close, but if it happened to me I think it would be a blessing to have children super close in age, they grow up closer and it makes the family closer. I have two sisters really close to me and we're best friends, I'm so grateful we're close in age. I'm too much of a chicken **** to actually do it though, I'm too much of a control freak, haha! Good luck!!
My sister in law became pregnant 2 months after her 2nd. She struggled but lives her kids and they are well behaved
Right now we aren't planning on telling family for awhile so no support as of now. My fiance and his brother are literally 1yr apart... So his mom has done it. My oldest is only 5...
My fiancé mother had all 3 of her children really close, my fiancé is the youngest and when he was born she had 3 children under 3. His eldest brother is also autistic, and she never regretted it, all of them are really close in age but are also very close emotionally. If me and my fiancé decide we want more then one child I hope I fall pregnant soon after having the baby so they can be as close as my fiancé and his brother and sister are.
