I have been p so many night lately trying to figure out the spacing between kids, (which I ABSOLUTELY AGREE WITH YOU IS FUNDAMENTAL TO ENJOY THEM ) I also thought I wanted them 2 years apart, and I feel EXACTLY LIKE YOU DO I´M NOT READY!!!! to make matters worrse, I have just been offered what seems to be a great job (kindergarten principal) and my daughter gets to come with me, of course!!! but I worry so much about the next one!!!! OMG!!!! .. to tell you the truth, I have also just decided to wait another year, let´s not forget about having just reached your ideal ideal ideal weight!!! going rigt back ai it????

Funny ... we are in the same dilemma. We keep pushing back our "Next Baby Date." First, it was summer 09 ... then fall 09 ... then ..... A large part of our thinking is that we don't want a pregnancy to influence a future work assignment (uuggh ... work politics) and then we'll be on a family trip to Sweden and then we'll be in the middle of a move and then I'll be starting a new job and then I'll have to study for a licensing exam. But, we don't want to wait too long so that that my son and his sibling are too far apart. My "gut" tells me that life will keep happening and at some point you gotta just go for it. So, we're not actvely trying but also not actively preventing pregnancy. I guess it what works for you.
