I have a 13 month old whom I adore and would love to have a second baby. He slept through from 4 months but for the past six months he has woken up during the night on and on off for one reason or the other - teeth, illness, whatever. I now regularly exist on just 3-4 hours a night and although I am surviving and feel surprisingly reasonable during the day, I am wondering how I would survive with the night feeds of a newborn on top. I might add that I have no family nearby and my husband is a pilot and so he often has to leave me to it at night to make sure he gets enough sleep to function.
I'm 38 this year and aware of time running out to have another one (especially as we needed help for DS1).
Would appreciate thoughts of anyone in similar situation!
