Sara! She’s beautiful!!! There’s absolutely no judging here! I will say however that breastfeeding is not a 100% sure birth control method, my sister is evidence of this, falling pregnant straight away after her first. I got pregnant when diapers was 6 months while I was breastfeeding.

In reply to Sarah. Thank you, Sarah! I think I've broken every rule. All the things I said we wouldn't do, we're now doing. Lol

Rock and I were JUST talking about this yesterday. I feel like I was just taking her for her first walk in the stroller and here we are 6 months later and she’s crawling and eating all sorts of foods! It is so awesome.

You are so brave with thinking about #2 within the year. Knowing we needed some fertility assistance, I don’t want to wait too long. But I don’t think I can handle another one before she is closer to 1 1/2 or 2! You are a super mom.

Also, one thing I have learned is that there is no way to judge any mom, ever. Rules are meant to be broken. People ask us all sorts of things we are doing or not doing, and I don’t care. It is working for us and I am so proud of our family. When we transitioned to the crib she did it easily so it wasn’t a big deal. Had it not, who knows where we would have gone! You’re a great mom!

A friend of mine got pregnant naturally somewhat shortly after having a baby with “help” (not sure exactly what they did). Good luck!! 🙂 Allie is so cute!! That’s funny that she likes loud noises. And adorable that she likes holding hands 🙂

Look at that sweet little nugget! She is so close to sitting up by herself.
I can also attest to the extra fertility of the first year after a baby. I got my period back when Swede was nine months old and got accidentally pregnant immediately after even though I was still breast-feeding. I did miscarry at 9 weeks but the super-fertility is definitely true, so hopefully it will work out for you naturally for #2!
