Answer
There is no problem with having a baby and then having another baby in a few months. Many women have done this in the past and now in the present time. Why would you not want to have your little baby boy or girl? They will be almost 2 years apart. That would be ok, in my opinion. My grandchildren are close apart like this. They will be friends and growing up together. So yes, I don't recommend abortion. Abortion can be dangerous to your health in many ways. Physically, emotionally and spiritually. It also kills your little baby boy or girl. What sex do you have now? Do you have a little girl or boy? What would you want next? Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and we will talk more. Can you get a pregnancy test? Let me know how you are feeling. Write soon.
