Looking for stories on mama’s who had their babies back to back. I currently got pregnant a little over a month after having my 1st baby… I was wondering if you held your second pregnancy to full term or if had your baby early ? Looking for stories… I’m due with my second child when my 1st child will only be 10-11months old.

Mine are 1yr and 1 month apart… its hard not going to lie lol but wouldn’t change it for the world… they are going to be 2 and 3 this yr
I got pregnant with my last baby when the one before was 8 months old. Went into labor at 37 weeks. Ended up having a c section. But he was healthy as a hoarse.
Wow you mamas that can handle that are incredible. I had a friend that had Irish twins too (sibling born less than a year apart) she carried to term both times and had two healthy baby boys. Wish you all the best!!
I had my babies back to back one born November 12 20018 at 35 wks in our car on way to hospital and the other born November 3 2019 at 37 wks both girls
My two are 11 months apart! They’re gonna be 6 and 7 this year. It is hard some days having them so close but I love it. The first labor was horrible for me as it was my first ever and she was 9 pounds lol, the second was a breeze and she was 8 pounds. I carried both to term and even passed the due date although I had gestational diabetes with the second. Everyone is different but keep up with your appointments and voice your concerns! 
My mom had my sisters 11 months apart
One was August the other was june
My girls are 12 months 1 week apart. It was def hard at times. Especially being pregnant with a baby. However now they are about to turn 3 and 4 and the bond they have is indescribable. It’s so adorable. They’re bffs literally, and fight like a married couple.
I don’t have any advice but I’m right there with you. This will be my third baby but I found out I was just about 2 months pregnant when my daughter was 3 months old. I’m so nervous. I’m going on 18 weeks now and my body has definitely hurt a lot more than my last pregnancy.
Mine were born less than 60 seconds apart. 
Lily was right on time😁
I had mine 1 year and 6 days apart. My son just turned 4 and my daughter will be 3 in 5 days.
My son was 5 days overdue and my daughter 4 days early 
And I have six back to back.All on time none enduced none premies.All happy and healthy

I have two 5 year olds and one 15 month old 
The older two are 11 months apart. It chaotic. They fight all the time lol but routine is key! I wouldn’t change it for the world 
I fell pregnant 2 months after my second was born, so now 10 months apart. It was really hard at the beginning, but it soon settled down and we managed just fine, and I have no family around. Can’t imagine life without them all now. I had mine at 38 weeks 2 days, but he was a big baby. No problems throughout pregnancy or labour 
I got pregnant 3 months pp and I had twins 12 weeks early but I got pregnant again 3 months pp and delivered at 38 weeks. No complications with any pregnancy
My 2nd and 3rd are 11 months apart. I got induced at 38 wks with both because of diabetes. But they are happy and healthy babies.
My first two grew up pretty much like twins. As for birth. I went over due dates with both of them only difference is I went into my own labor with my 2nd, my 1st I had to be induced for low amniotic fluid. Since then I’ve had other babies, not so close together (I’ve learned my lesson) and every single baby and birth is different. There will be no actual answer for you for this one, it all depends on your pregnancy and baby. Mine are now 14 and 13 years old. And I think because they are of the oposite sex, they don’t really hang out as much as they used to.
I’m about to have my 4th in 4 years… My kids birth years are 2016, 2017, 2018 and now due in June 2020. All my pregnancies have been low-risk and full term and all my babies have been healthy even though it’s really taking a toll on my health

For me it was similar to having twins! My girls were a year apart,but about the same size at 1 & 2 yrs old. Recommend a dbl stroller.make sure it’s something you can fit in ur car and take down quickly! Mine was a life saver!
My son will be 1 May 24th. And I’m due June 11th with my second son.

My girls are 11 months apart second one was easier than the first one Both full term
I have seven children. My two oldest girls are only 10.5 months apart so I had them within a year. They are the same age right now until the other one’s birthday comes around.
Happy healthy girls 10 months apart. Both were born at 36 weeks but that just seems to be what my body does 
My 2 youngest children are back to back. My Irish twins. I had my son on October 2nd 2012 & my daughter was born September 27th 2013. They are the “same age” for about a week. I have 6 children total. 3 bio & 3 step. My 3 bio were all almost exactly 1 week early. I did have complications with my youngest daughter. Placenta previa. But everything turned out amazing, considering.
My first two are 11 months apart. No issues during pregnancy and delivery went well
My babies are a little over 10 months apart. Both babies are full term I had preeclampsia with my first at the very end and with my second my Placenta was not growing properly I had a rough labor with my first one causing me to have an emergency C-section and I had just gotten pregnant too soon I also carry her to 39 weeks nothing really ever did not just had to have you for monitoring and I high chance of My Placenta detaching.
How scary! Good luck mommy!
Had my son at exactly 40 weeks, it was a traumatic birth (we both almost died) then got pregnant with my daughter 6 weeks later, she arrived at 35 weeks (was a breeze! Dr almost dropped her cause she came out too fast, guess everything was like a slip and slide for her 
) keeping them on a schedule was key, they’re best buds on most days, they’re almost like having twins, i would not change a thing! And raised them as a single mom since they both turned 2.
Three babies within 25 months of each other

My babies are 9 months apart. And my youngest was born at 30 weeks. He spent about a month and a half in NICU.
I have Irish twins
I had my first baby on February 23, 2019
My second baby on February 20,2020.
She was due on February 25th however I had to be induced as she had cord wrapped around her neck.
She spent a few extra days at the hospital as she spit up bright green, and her bowls were inflamed.
She’s doing well now just has very bad reflux (however so do I so she probably just inherited from me)
My first was/in pretty independent. She was walking at 11 months and plays on her own lots during the day so I feel this has helped a lot with the process.
She is also obsessed with her sister. Wants to sit with her all the time, kisses her all the time,holds her hand and tries to cuddle (as much as I’ll let her as she still doesn’t know her strength)
My second pregnancy was way worse pain wise. By the last month I couldn’t sleep laying down. However it was a pretty easy pregnancy other then pain and delivery went great.
Hope this helps. Feel free to message me any time if you have questions.

I had my son Jan 1st and my daughter March the next year 13 months apart they were full time babies and they are now 50 and 51 half and they were good babies they have been real close since they were younger and now they talk to each other often and live 3 houses apart I hope this helps you congratulations
My 3 oldest are 15g,14b,13b. I wouldn’t have changed having them close together for anything. I loved it. They were/are never lonely. Now they are bigger and as strong as me and help so much with everything. It was a blessing!
Right here 
my sons are 11 months apart and I was only 4 days early with my second lol longestttt almost 2 years of my life 
I have a 17 month old and a 4 month old. It’s hard at times but somehow I manage with help from my 7 year old. But to be honest I wouldn’t recommend it.

No experience but my girl is 9 months and I couldn’t imagine chasing her around with a big pregnant belly lol! Congrats and you are one strong woman. 
I pray it’s easy for you.
13 months apart. Both overdue and healthy. Felt like I had twins for awhile. Didn’t get as much one on one time as I hoped for with either one but they grew up best friends
My sister and I are 9 months apart. I was premie.
We fought alot growing up but now we are as close as ever.
My first 2 are 8 months apart
Mine are 1 year and a month apart. My first was a week early while my second was a week late. Definitely challenging at first but now theyre best friends and are 8 and 9. 
Always getting asked if theyre twins lol 
My kids are exactly 11 months apart . Is was so hard when they were younger with breast feeding , nights and days where hard but they will be 3 and 2 in may and they are best friends and do everything together. Our routine has become so much easier bottles gone at the same time . Bed time the same time they can interact on the same level . I honestly wouldnt change it for the world
My first two are 13 months apart and I was lucky enough to carry both to 38 weeks. I am currently pregnant (31 weeks) and our youngest is now 19 months. So far everything has worked out great for us, thankfully. Our kids always have a playmate or wrestle partner-depending on the day lol. Good luck and I wish you well 
Shew my oldest two were a year and a day apart
Had baby 2 (
) and then got pregnant within 3 months… had baby 3 at 38 weeks (longest pregnancy ive had) and with no complications. Doctor said they wished i had waited atleast a year just because the chances of problems r higher with back to back. Just get checked regularly and take care. Congrats and good luck 
My brother and I are 10 months and 2 days apart. I was 2 weeks late. I had breathing problems because I was allergic to everything.
