stanleygirl replied: Congratulations!!!!

Kieran was 25 months when Brady was born, so not quite as close, but ya it has it's own challenges, but there are a lot of positives as well. The hardest thing for me is that if one kid wakes up, the other wakes too, just to see what is going on I think
The best part of having them closer together is the bond they share, Kieran is a great big brother (most of the time!)
And that I can use all Kierans baby stuff with Brady bc it is all almost brand new.

Josie83 replied: I don't have experience of this but I just wanted to say congratulations and welcome to the board I think there are are a few ppl on here who have kids close together in age, so they should be able to help you? I think Lisa (Katy and Matthew's mum), Kimberley and Jeanie had kids close together but I'm not sure . . . xx

Tamatha replied: Congrats!!! I only have one baby right now, and he'll be a month old tomorrow, but DH and I are planning to have a second baby pretty quickly. I've heard that, while it can be challenging to have two in diapers at the same time, the bond they share is so much stronger because they are closer in age. And besides that, after number 2, DH is planning to get "snipped" so we won't have to worry about any "accidents" later on!

Good luck, wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months!

kimberley replied: congrats! my boys are 18mos apart and while it is challenging at first, you do get used to it.. and eventually it is a great thing. because they are so close in age, they often keep each other amused which takes the pressure off me to be mommy the clown all day lol. good luck and keep us posted.

iluvmysweetiepies replied: Congratulations!!! I have 2 close together, as well as twins. You'll be able to manage, it's not that bad. It's all worth it in the end.

Mom2Boyz replied: Congratulations!!!!!
Mine are exactly 19 months apart, but my youngest is only 3 weeks old, so I don't really have much experiece with 2 just yet. Ask me again in a couple of months lol

mckayleesmom replied: To be honest...Im pretty sure I concieved Russell on Mckaylees birthday...lol.....although I didn't know it until I was 4 months along. Its actually alot easier then I thought it would be...it just takes a little more planning to go places.

lisar replied: Congrats!!!! You will make it with them that close together. My aunt has them that are 10mths apart and she managed just fine. And if she could do it then anyone can.
