Definatly is. Better to work at all your problems in the relationship than going to start something new i believe. @morganmommy79 youll figure out all the tricks eventually lol.

@queen_bee, thank you! I'm learning his triggers. It's hard but worth it.

No problem. And thank you for saying that. Everyone that meets me and knows me says the same exact thing. That is really good he is trying to be the opposite of him instead of ending up like his father. Some people do which is difficult because that is all they know and dont know how to be positive about it. With me i pushed it all aside and hold it all back.. which some times catches up with me and gets me so depressed i break down for the day. Helping him is going to be to be a challenge. Everyone is different so maybe try to see what makes him happy and calms him down when he is upset? Im not sure tbh.. hopefully he will figure it out and do it for the sake of your family. @morganmommy79

@queen_bee, yes thank you. And you seem mature for your age. Some girls that age have babies and don't take care of them. You have a good head on your shoulders.
My husband has a bad childhood too. He said he'd never be like his dad and would love and cherish his children. He really wants to try one more time for a baby, hoping for a boy this time. I honestly wouldn't mind if he'd straighten up. He has a lot of anger issues from his past. I don't know how to help him. Maybe someday tho... idk :)

It goes by so fast. I bet it can get on ur nerves lol. Everyone seems to be so close in age with another family member and you are all close it sounds like. Thats awesome. But its good you know what the experience will be like lol. You are prepared. My biggest fear is everyone making me feel like crap for being 18 with 2 kids. My childhood was aweful. I was forced to grow up. I was 5 or maybe younger.. i had dcf in my life. And i was dealing with alot of bs. I dont remember anything good from my childhood. So to me i wanted a family of my own that i could love and take care of. I wanted that one guy to love forever and my babies. Age is just a number. It doesnt state how mature you are. How financially stable you are. It just doesnt and shouldnt define you as a mother or person. And thats my biggest problem. And that is all up to you girl. Dont let no one talk you into anything. Go with your gut feeling and decide what is best for you ya know? @morganmommy79

@queen_bee, I know what you mean. My daughter is trying to walk too. She's growing up way too fast also. My husband and his brother were a year apart and they are like twins. They are very close sometimes that gets on my nerves ha ha! I babysat my nephews A LOT so it was like having two sets of twins. My nephew and daughter are 3 months apart. My other nephew and my son are 6 months apart. They played really well together and still get along great into their teens. I have a niece who is also the same age as my daughter and nephew so I know what it's like with that many car seats and diapers and bottles. lol it's actually not too bad but I was younger then. Idk about now. If you have it in you do it! As a mom tho with older kids I'm glad I have a baby now. I won't handle empty nest so well. So now after the older ones move on I will still have her LOL I'm just not sure if I'm going to do it again or not.

Lol i get that. 2 in diapers is tough. But im hoping as soon as she starts walking which i know is any time now because she is trying.. That we can get her potty trained. That way if we decide to have another within a year she will be out of diapers. Maybe not completely, but for the most part ya know? Girl i believe you when you say they fight lol. My brother and i are 3 years and we constantly fought. But we werent raised to be close and loving ya know? Thats why i want to raise our kids differently than i grew up. Yes there will be fighting and arguing, but hopefully for the most part thete will be love and support. Thats what we want to aim for. As well as chloe having someone to grow up with. That is definatly a tough call though for you. As you are getting older and dont want to deal with crying babies im guessing. But hey if you can handle 2 babies go for it! I just think having 2 not so far apart will give them someome to play with instead of always wanting mommy and daddy ya know? But it can turn out anyway. You never know. Just depends on the kids and parents basically. @morganmommy79 sorry if this all sounds stupid lok

@carolina_mamma

Oh okay. Stupid of me i could of seen the ages right there lol. But they most likely will be as long as you raise them to be ya know? But defiantly a plus that your oldest helps you out.

I have a 13 and 16 year old. I loved having them 3 years apart because I didn't have two in diapers at once or on bottles at the same time. So much easier. But now that they are older they fight all the time because the younger one hasn't hit puberty yet and is immature. But, siblings fight. Now I have a baby, 8 months old, and they are a huge help with her and love her to pieces. But now she won't have a sibling to grow up with. My hubby wants one more. Idk if I do. I'm 38 so time is limited if I do so they would be about 1-2 years apart if I do. I can't imagine two in diapers and 2 little ones at once. I'm just torn. Lol

Not sure yet bc my youngest is 2m but my oldest is such a big help! I hope that they are close when they get older!

I am just curious.. do they get along well? People keep telling us that theor kids usually dont get along or want to hangout together and it is because their age differences. Thats why i think 2 years apart is perfect. Not a big difference. @carolina_mamma

Mine are 6 years apart! I wish I had mine closer!
