Caleb will be 2 weeks tomorrow. His pregnancy was more exhausting and harder. His birth was harder. Having 2 kids and being pregnant while my husband travels 5 days a week would be insane. So HOW do I have baby fever already??
It was about the two or three week mark when there was a pregnant woman on tv and I was completely overwhelmed with baby fever. Everyone told me I was nuts and I didn't have a toddler at home in addition, like you. The overwhelming feeling passed, but it still pops up a little bit now and then.

H and I talked about the time of #3. We (I) are/am hoping not to have to move until late next year. I think we'll TTC in January, in hopes that we can have one more baby with our midwife here.
you are nuts!! i already told H that we are going to need to wait 4-5 years for me to forget this suckage before trying again lol
Trust me - you'll forget long before then!!! In fact, you'll likely forget right at the same moment you look into your baby's eyes. I was already talking about #3 before the midwife left my house after the birth. And she was only here about 4.5 hours after he was born!
I forgot about most of my labor. But then, I feel like my labor was breezy (I didn't get the epi until transition).
I have not and never will forget the suckage that was heartburn for 5.5 month, how disgusting and ugly I felt, nor will I forget having to roll into bed because Amelia was shoved so far down in my pelvis, I couldn't lift my legs. (srsly, she was far down there. Her head came out weird shaped. No worries. It's normal now.)
But my kids are pretty cute. Very worth it. Just not worth it right away. I'm on Team Alzi with 4-5 years between pregnancies.
Girl, you crazy! I love my baby girl and all, and definitely want more, and do get that twinge of "awww so little" when I look at her newborn pictures already...but NO. I am in no rush to do all that business again.
You do make wicked cute babies though, so I get it.
