When did you start TTC for baby #2?
I'm 4 months pp and husband is ready to start trying for baby #2. It took us 9 months to get baby #1 so we don't want to wait to long to start trying for baby #2. My hope was to breastfeed baby #1 for at least a year. When did you start trying for baby #2?

I just logged on as I'm TTC #2 and went to your page because I remembered you from my last pregnancy - and saw you're trying for #2 as well soon! Yayyyyy!! I would ideally like to conceive in October or November, but we just plan to not prevent but not try for this month and next month, then I will start what I used when I got pregnant with my son in October and hopefully that does the trick!! So if you're waiting a couple more months maybe we will be getting pregnant around the same time!!

Hi BB2018! I remember you too! I am waiting a couple more months. I want to make sure my milk supply will last my daughter until she is at least 1 year old so we might start trying in November or I might just stop taking the mini pill then and we'll see what happens. How old is your son? Was he born in October of 2018?

First of all, congrats on your Valentine’s Day Baby! I was really feeling ready to try again when our first was 5 months. My husband was ready too, but we did not expect to fall pregnant on the first month TTC since it took about 5 months to conceive #1 and I’d had chemicals in the past. Then factor in #2 was also a preemie. Girls are 13 months apart, and we’re doing alright. So if you do TTC now, be ready for anything! I have a friend who breastfed her first until she was about 20 weeks along with #2. Your Dr will be able to tell you more about breastfeeding while trying/pregnant

Thank you sonata! I feel like waiting to try more at 9 months so that I definitely get a whole year of breastfeeding in with my DD. Breastfeeding is also how we finish our night time/bed time routine and I really really like that time I spend with her. We'll see how we do the rest of the year breastfeeding. My DH is ready and willing to try for #2 anytime now. He's just waiting for me to say go!
