Already have a 26 week old but 7 weeks pregnant

[Jusnaa]

Hello ladies. Just needed some advice as I am currently 7 weeks pregnant with my second child but have a 26 week old baby boy. Not sure how I will cope? Has anyone else had such a small age gap between their children? What are your experiences? X

Hey, congrats theres a 16 month age gap between my boys. My oldest was around 6/7 months when we found out. . Tbh it wasn't much different to having the one, just two nappies to change instead of one, Josh was firmly on solids by the time LO arrived so cooking was difficult but it was difficult anyway cos Josh was such a demand child. LO was a doddle in comparison. We made baby work around Joshua's routine as much as possible cos we didn't want to disrupt him too much, it worked for us. It can be challenging at times but you find ways to cope. They're now 8 and 7 and the best of friends, I'm thankfully I had them close together cos they always have each other. You will be fine, just follow your instincts x

congratulations, i found it easier with two close together , my gap was 17 months. the night times were similar and now they are older they are the closest brother and sister pair i know. i would rather and stand by this now, have close together and be use to being up during nights ect, then to get use to being ' normal' and then thrown back into the routine. Im sure you would cope fine, follow your instincts and enjoy them as time flies. My two are now 5 and 4 , with one on the way. so its going to cause a shake up since i was use to sleep again lol x
