So my little man will be 9 months on November 1. I’m now thinking about a 2nd baby soon as I want my kids close in age of at least 2-2.5 years. However I can’t help but feel guilty. I almost want my son to be my only little one 😭😭 yet I don’t want him alone and I love the idea of a little family of 4. The idea of him no longer being my only little baby makes me feel so sad, yet I get excited at the thought of another baby. Anyone else experience this?

Get excited! It's great! I think a lot of women feel guilty, but that's not going to change the situation. I guess it's easier said than done, but think positively!

I think everyone feels like that or most people anyways.. our first baby’s are just the most amazing thing and the thought of having another is a guilty kind of feeling but siblings are a gift in my opinion. And trust me when the second one comes it will be like you’ve always had two! I wish I would have had my first two closer together. They’re 3 years apart and I wish they were a bit closer

I got pregnant when my son was only 3 months. To be honest I was heart broken because like you I wanted to be just him and I for a while. I was scared he’d feel alone but he’s now two and she’s one and they absolutely adore each other. Having them close is great! :)

Yes, especially while I was pregnant with our second. I felt like I would be taking something away from him. Like me and my time and attention. But he loves both if his baby brothers. He has been an amazing big brother from the start. And I am so glad I get to watch them grow up together and be so close.
