Did having a baby make your baby fever harder the next time your got it or easier?
(I hope that question makes sense.)
I'm not ready to have another baby any time soon (if ever at all) but I think it makes it worse because now I know how wonderful it all is. TTC, pregnancy, the planning, the excitment of waiting for that little one to arrive, the newborn stage, the growing, and watching them develop each day. Before when I was WTTC without a baby/child I didn't know how everything would REALLY be. I could only imagine it.

It definitely makes it harder. Even when I have days like today has been with them, it's still hard.

I found it easier to deal with baby fever the second time around....I was often too busy or into DS to obsess over TTC. However, it makes it harder to DTD (HE HE HE) at times when you have a little one already in the house!

With Edward, I was willing to wait. After Preston, I wanted another immediately. I'm so ready to be pregnant NOW! And Chris is ready to knock me up, but now just isn't time. Plus, I want to find a doctor who will work with me through a v2bac.

After having Abby, it was easy to wait at least till she was like 2... She is a wonderful child but an awful sleeper so I was never in a hurry to add more sleepless nights to the mix, LOL. But after that I started wanting another because it seemed a little easier.
Now I have no baby fever whatsoever. I know we are done, and I am totally cool w/ that.

It was much harder once I was a mommy, BUT I started really young (23 when first was born), so my baby fever never got really high before we got pregnant.

This is hard, I dunno... I had a VERY demanding first child so while it was still incredible and amazing and all that, it definitely made me scared to have another. I knew I wanted my kids close together though so we started TTC when Taylor was 8.5 months old. 2 weeks later I got my BFP and here I am with Rylie  She's the sweetest, calmest baby in the world... what I really needed this time around I think. I would love to have another baby but not for 3 to 4 years due to financial reasons. If it were up to Andy we'd be TTC in 10 months or so LoL!

It's easier for me, because before my first, I didn't think about all of the hard parts of having a baby. Now, I see more of the reality.  I'm sure when the time is right for us to start TTC a 2nd, it will hit me hard again.

I'm the same as Jess. I started young as well at 21 years old. I never had strong baby fever but I did want to start my family young, didn't know when though! Curty made it happen when he wanted haha. So it was never threw the roof... like it was when I already had him and how I am now. I dunno my boys are SO well behaved... even on grumpy days haha I just can't help but want another
