Wanting to try again

Rylie's Mommy - 08:03pm May 17, 2012 EST

My first pregnancy was nothing short of a surprise. I went in for a doctors appointment and less than 2 hours later I had a 3 pound baby girl. My husband and I are thinking about having our second child. (Our little girl is 16 months, beautiful and completely healthy) Can anyone give any advice about the road ahead and what to expect. I'm one on 12 children and I thought that I would have the whole baby thing taken care of. But as any parent to a preemie knows; nothing you know about a term baby applies to a preemie. So, I'm anxious because even though I'm a mother now I find myself again going into the unknown with a second pregnancy. Any advice would be much apprciated.
