Hi Jenny, I just thought I would share my parents' story of having kids and med school/residency. So my mom was in medical school and my dad was doing his residency when they had my two siblings and I (all three of us have a 2 yr age difference). Growing up I never had an issues with feeling lonely while my parents worked long hours and were on-call because I had my siblings. My parents also made it a point to attend our school functions and spend quality time with us so everything worked out just fine. Im just amazed at how my mother and father handled going through med school and taking care of 3 kids!!!! God bless them ♡

I have four kids and am in med school. My thoughts are this, don't feel guilty thinking you aren't giving your kid enough attention. If you have siblings you'll probably remember how so much of what you learn growing up comes from the relationship you have with your brothers and sisters. It's healthy for kids to have independence and they'll love you all the more when you're around.

Chad Richards Nice to hear from another non traditional! Plan on making a vlog covering this. I am not in Med School yet, have to complete a Post Bacc to get more Sciences. I took a lot of Math because I was originally a Math major before switching to Accounting for the sake of graduating faster. Realized I hate Accounting as a job and wanted to pursue what always wanted to do, Medicine. I thought having kids was pretty much a no go for med school but realized it didn’t have to be. God bless!

Maybe wait till you finish your residency and when life slows down a bit , have two kids close in age then? That way you can concentrate on your son now and in the future when you have more time, have more babies. I grew up as the only child and I wouldn't trade it for anything. I'm sure Wyatt would love having all your attention now for a few years and then get siblings down the line.

So my only sibling, my brother, is 5 years older than me and we've always been best friends. Maybe that's not normal cause people do always seem surprised that we actually like each other, but I wouldn't change the age difference at all. When I say "always been best friends" I literally mean that we have pictures of me days old laying on the couch with my brother, pictures of me 2 years old laying in my brothers race-car bed with him reading to me, and we also played wiffle ball together legit every single day for as long as I can remember. We're 23 and 28 now, I live alone in NYC and he lives with his wife in Seattle, and we're still really close even though we live totally different lives. So many people think that being close in age is what makes siblings close but I really don't think that's true at all.

I like how you talked about something so real. I feel like most people in grad school/ residency that I follow on youtube never talk about these things, so I feel alone in wanting to have a demanding job and a family at the same time. Really, the way you manage life is so awe inspiring. About your dilemma- Personally, I'm the second child of five. My first older sister is 4 years older, and my closest younger brother is 5 years younger. I never have felt that I wasn't close to them because of our age gap. I don't think that is something that you have to worry about. If you are ready for another child now, I say go for it. If not, then you can wait awhile. I think you'll be fine either way.

I can't say I know what it's like being a new resident and having kids, but with three kids of my own that are about two years apart, I like that they are close in age. However, you will give most of yourself to them and not get a lot of time to yourself for a little bit. lol! It wasn't too terrible because I knew they needed me, but there were times when I didn't think I could go another day. BUT I took it one day at a time and found ways to have down time, even if it was only five minutes. lol! Having a husband that helps you, though, I imagine is tremendously helpful. :)

Hi Jenny Firstly, I love your channel I don't typically comment on videos but I wanted to give you some positive feedback on the baby venture. I am currently on baby number three, he is two weeks old, my older kids Diana and Zac are 14 and 11 respectfully. I am a premed student and full time Nurse and officer with the USAF. I want to say I was fearful of a large age gap since D and Zac are so close in age 2yrs and 8mths apart and my current son Jackson is clearly much further from them but they love their little brother so much and spend so much time with him that I forget how big of a gap there is. As you know working and having a newborn is tough but when it happens no matter when it does your such a confident person and Wyatt is such a great baby he will love his new sibling now matter what the age difference is. I can see they will be super close siblings especially from watching his interaction with the little girl in this video. He was so patient and seemed to enjoy being around her. Best of luck to you and I am sure the new addition will come at the right time for you and your family.

Hi Jenny, I dont know if this is helpful or not, but im a younger sibling of 5 and just wanted to let you know im extremely close and best friends with my siblings (both brothers and sisters) who 4 years older than me and more! I actually love that they are older than me because I get to learn so much from them! I guess what im trying to say is my advice would be to just do it again whenever youre ready, a 3 or 4 year age gap is not too much, tbh seems like just the perfect amount!

Thanks for talking about this! I’m planning on getting married this year, and we’ve talked about having kids and don’t know when we would have them with me being in med school and then being in residency later! I did have one physician tell me that residency can be an okay time to have a baby, so long as you’re in a family friendly residency where hopefully you can take some maternity leave. It sounds like you do have a pretty family friendly residency if there are several residents who are having children right now too :).

Oh goodness, I’m a mother, and I’m 30 years old, and I’ve been in school since my daughter was 2. I was also a single mother up until 4 years ago. I’ve been in the position where I’ve worked 2 jobs while going to school, and now I’m working full time and going through a very demanding full time nursing program. I have also felt so incredibly guilty that I’m not spending enough time with my child, and I also have put off having another child that we all want so badly. I’m going to say this; it’s normal to feel guilty, but remember why you are doing what you’re doing. You are setting a wonderful example for your child/children. I’m also going to say that there is never a right time to have a child. You have to do what feels right for you and your family. You’re doing a wonderful job, and I have to remind myself constantly that I’m doing all of this work for my daughter and my families future, and I’m loving her. That’s what you’re doing. You’re being a good mom. Stay strong, we will get through this and it will be incredibly worth it.

I have a 2.5 year old and a 10 month old. They are 22 months apart. It definitely is a lot of work but there are some things that almost seem easier. The baby will play with the toddler a bit and it’s amazing to see them love on each other. Everything you’re feeling is totally normal. I felt guilty for being pregnant and not having the energy to keep up with my toddler, I felt guilty about taking time away from one to give to the other and I felt like I couldn’t love another child as much as I loved my first but as soon as my son was born all of those worries went away. My daughter is so so happy to have a little brother and now I wish I could go back and tell myself not to worry.

You learn as you go along, and I am close to the both of them. My sibs are 5 and 7 years younger, and they are closer to one another. I miss my kids’ infant and toddler days - it goes by so fast!

Hi Jenny! Those are very thoughtful things to consider when having another baby! But I think that Wyatt would not have a lesser quality sibling bond simply because of an age gap of 4 years or such. It's all about how they're raised at the get-go (for ex, when Wyatt is participating in games or activities such as yoga or music lessons, he could learn to include his younger sibling (regardless of whether it's a boy or girl) and I still think they would have a splendid time!) And in terms of best friendship, siblings that learn to respect and love one another very often grow up to be best friends forever, especially when high school or university comes around. I do think it is possible to be best friends with somone that is even several years older than us, I've definitely seen it happen 😉. Love you and cutey little Wyatt ❤️. And I'm sure that regardless of whatever decision you make, you'll succeed at it!

My mom had me and my sister Sophie 13 months apart and worked full time as an MRI Technologist by herself as a single mom. She would work 80 hours pregnant with my sister while i was in the care of my grandmother and aunts. she still worked her regular 80 hour+ work week while also being on call after giving birth to Sophie and for a huge chunk of my early life but i still remember her being there for me and my sister. She tended to us both and i think me and my sister only being a year apart made things easier as far as entertaining and spending time with us. I know you might want it to be the perfect situation but honestly growing up and with my mom being at work i was able to keep myself busy and entertained with my sister all the time since we could play together and do the same things. So i know you’re thinking about going through your residency pregnant, but if Wyatt’s best interest is at hand, i recommend having a baby before he turns 3 so that he can have someone to play with while you’re working and he won’t seem so alone to you. It worked out fine for me and my sister and our family dynamic is perfect and we’re in college now. so at first it’ll be kinda hard but it’ll be worth it in the long run. You can do it momma!

I know this is late but my brother is 3 years younger than me and we are very close but not so close we are on top of each other. It was nice to have a few years in school by myself then go to high school my last year together. I'm pretty sure we will do undergrad at the same school for a year or two. I had a single mom who's a nurse and we are very close and have a good relationship even though she worked all the time. She feels a lot of guilt about it but we both turned out just fine. Don't stress too much about it you will have a family full of love!

HI Jenny! You are always inspiring!! I always watch you videos because I also wanna have a family and I feel like your friends are right. There is never a correct time to have a child but if that is what your heart wants, then you guys will make it work. As long as you guys love and try to spend as much time with you children it will work! Good luck with your decision!! And my question for you is... If you wax for a long period of time is that bad for the skin? I currently use European Wax because I hate shaving. How does waxing affect you skin? and does it make it saggy over time? (rumors I've heard of) Thank you soon much and you are amazing!!

Hi Jenny! I’m a mom of two. 4 year age gap between them, a boy and a girl. I can honestly say, I sometimes regret waiting so long to have baby #2 (our son). The age gap alone, makes my attention more towards my son than my daughter because My son was the youngest and needed to be fed, changed and what not. My daughter Kaylee, being 4 at the time.... needed not as much. I am in school for radiography so it is hard to manage both school and mom duties but I don’t think there is ever a good time. Life is too short and time flies, and in the end things always work out Xoxoxox

Either way here’s some internet support hehehe :) and hello Wyatt!!

Wyatt always makes my day 😍 Oh thought I’d add that my brother and I are 4 years apart and it pretty much feels like I don’t have a brother because we are so different. But my mom had 8 miscarriages and we had a sister pass away very young so she is happy with the 2 she has!

Ha! Let me know when you figure it out. ;P Nursing student here. I'm in a similar situation as you (when you planned for baby Wyatt). You are not alone! I have the exact same fears, feelings, emotions as you do. My husband and I are very career driven yet we both want kiddos. It's a difficult choice any way you slice it, however, I do think the fact we are both in the medical field may be useful when issues with childcare come up. I recently came across a video by ZdoggMD and it was a mother's day edition (I think it's about a year or so old). It discussed the disparity that women working in healthcare face. While it didn't reduce any of my fears/feelings it made me more sure in my decision. It gave me ideas on how to tackle the Choice.

My brother is 9 years older than me and my sister is 5 years older and we're all very close with each other. I personally don't think it's necessarily the age gap that affects the relationship or closeness but rather just always having spent lots of time together growing up (whether this was my parent's "forcing" us or not :p) So I personally don't think the age gap should be as big an issue as whether you are personally ready. I realize having a baby anytime during residency will be a struggle, so I think it should be based on your mental preparedness for the physical and emotional changes at this specific time. This is just my opinion, but no matter what just know that you are doing great! (Mom guilt is real!)

I'm in a very similar boat! My daughter is 2, and my husband would LOVE to have another, but I'm not sure if I'm ready. I'm applying to medical school this summer, and I'm currently doing a masters program, so there's anxiety lot going on. I feel many of the same fears and hesitancies you do, especially considering that getting stuff done while pregnant can be a nightmare at times., let alone doing everything pregnant AND with a toddler! Then I feel selfish for not wanting one because it would be harder on me, but then I rationalize that I wouldn't have time to spend with each child. The back and forth never ends. I also ended up with postpartum ocd/anxiety, and it was terrifying and debilitating, so I'm afraid of going through all of that again. Ugh, it is definitely not an easy decision.

My situation is somewhat opposite but perhaps relatable. My husband and I have 2 girls, aged 8 and 4 years old. We are both Pre-Med students with former careers in EMS. I've mostly stayed at home and been a student while they've been little. They are 4 years apart but play very well together. Occasionally they clash because of being on different age based behaviors but the oldest is very understanding. At these ages they have very similar interests and share all their toys. My advice is have a second child when you and your body feels ready..don't rush it for silly reasons because mentally and emotionally you need to be ready for the second one AND you WILL know because all the sudden you will just be ready. At least you got medical school done already. And no there's never a perfect time when matching up a career with children...there's pros and cons to every situation. You'll make the right decision!

I’m a mom of 2. Boy then girl. They are 2 years and 8 months apart. Perfect age gap for us. My son was potty trained before my daughter came but they are super close and have a lot of fun together. 3 years apart in school which I think is good so they are together but have some space. They are 4 and 6 now and I have loved the age gap the entire time.

I am also a student and I struggle with this as well. My son is almost 2 and between work and school, I feel so guilty. I often times feel like I don't give him enough time. I totally understand. I am the only girl of 4 children. My older 2 brothers and I are 4 years a part and we are close, of course we had little sibling spats but I feel that's normal. My youngest brother and I are 6 years a part and still just as close.The decision is ultimately yours. Do what makes you content because that will ultimately determine your kids happiness. If I do know anything is that women are totally super heros 😊

My sister is 9 years older than me. That wasn't intentional (my sister comes from my moms previous marriage but she was raised in the same household with me, rather than with her dad). We were definitely not close growing up lol. But when I got into high school and we became friends and now we have a good relationship! I personally would like to have my kids closer in age so that they have someone to grow up with because it was kinda lonely being the only kid in the house at the age of 9, but kids farther apart in age can still have good relationships even if it takes a little longer!

I have three siblings. My oldest sister and youngest sister (5 years apart) love each other but the relationship is definitely different than the rest of ours. I’m the third child and I’m very close to all of my siblings, even with my oldest one who is 3.5 years older than me. We hangout all the time and always have, even when I was a weird middle schooler and she was in high school. My older brother is about 1.5 years older than me and we are also super close, and my younger sister is 1.5 years younger and we are best friends. I’m a huge advocate for having your kids close in age, because we are all so close and it doesn’t feel weird to hangout with all of them because we aren’t in very different stages of our lives!!

My siblings and I are 9 and 11 years older than me. It was weird growing up, because it always felt like we had two different sets of parents with how much had changed in the 10 years between us. I usually felt like my siblings were closer to each other than they were to me, but as adults, we’ve gotten closer. I always wished that I had had a sibling closer to my age, but my parents were about 40 when I was born, so they were done having kids.

I have 4 kids, my first 3 are each 6 years apart, my last 2 are 17 months apart (15, 9, 3, 1 1/2). The two toddlers are definitely best friends, but the balance can be hard at first. My older ones don’t really get a long because they are in different phases in their lives. I worked two jobs for my last two pregnancies (which was essentially like being pregnant for two years straight lol) and it was tiring but doable. I miscarried a few months ago and it was really difficult, we had thought we were done and were surprised to be expecting again and then devastated by the loss. We are trying for another at this time. There really will never be “a good time” but I believe things always work themselves out.

I don't have any kits, and I'm starting rotations in a few months, so I wanted to be proactive after Step 1 to just get some of my psychomotor skills down early so I can rock some of my suturing skills!

Hi Jenny! I personally am an only child and although I had a great childhood I would have loved to have the opportunity to grow up with siblings. My fiance, however, has 2 brothers close in age and one that is 11 years younger than him. I do think they all get along nicely but I do find that the three older ones have more in common due to their age gap. I think it's important to give Wyatt a sibling he can share his life with and although it might be hard for you because you are so busy, your family is forever and I'm sure you will be happy with your decision down the road. Either way, I'm sure you and Stan will decide what is best for your family.

I have a question, I shop at a store called Sunrise Japanese Supermarket on 41st street in NYC and there is this petite woman, I guess around thirty years old women that I always talk to that works there and I have known her for around two years. We are friends. When I first started going there her face was clear then it started to break out in a acne form type butterfly rash and hasn't changed in over a year. I got upset when some people said she had herpes and then some people said she had Lupus. I asked her if she had any other symptoms and she said no. I ruled out Lupus. I think that herpes is out also. The acne form never suppressed. I think it's diet/environment related. I don't want to lose her friendship. I only see her when I go to this store around five times a week but, feel she is one of the few friends I have made since I moved to New York City. I think she doesn't go to a doctor for lab work. I don't know what it possible is and I don't know how to approach her. She has answered my questions on symptoms without offense and really is a very beautiful woman except for this acne form on her face. It looks like a Malar rash but, it isn't lupus and there is no rashes any where else on her body. Dermatology is real tricky to me but, I do like it and find it amazing on how so many illnesses are determined from Dermatology.

My brother and I are close of age but we don't really have a bond where as a couple of my friends have siblings of 4 or more years apart and they having amazing relationships. It really depends for each family. How many more years do you have left of residency? Maybe wait towards the end of your residency like you waited during your 4th year of med school. Even if you decide to have another baby, I am sure things will work out and fall into place.

Hi Jenny. First, I want to say I love your videos. Second, I would like to share my experience with kids closed in age. This will be long....sorry. I have two sons who are 18 months apart. I got pregnant of my second when my first was 10 months. I currently work full time and go to school part time (pre-med). I believe this is a very personal choice since you and your husband know better than anyone how much time and support you will have. But, this is what I have to say about my experience. First, if you decide to go ahead and do it, I would say it will be easier on you of Wyatt is not breastfeeding anymore. I know some mom's breastfeed two babies, but I honestly didn't want to add to the natural jealousy that comes with a sibling. Plus, breastfeeding is a bonding time and I wanted to have that solely for the new baby. Plus, once I got pregnant of the second, my milk supply cut to a third or less. Second, it was hard to adjust innicially. My oldest was 18 months when my second was born. So, he still needed a lot of attention. I felt i didnt focus on the new baby as much as I wanted it did with my first. It's like the newborn phase of my second was a flash that went by very quickly with not much concrete memories. Third, make sure you do the same things with your second (pictures, videos, growth chart, etc) as you did with the first. We tend to not do as much with the second because they are the second, but it is important to do it. With two young kids, I have much less time to myself. In the beginning, I did get exhausted a lot. I was out of work for 4 months. When I came back to work, it was another adjustment time. It was very hard at times, especially when I was by myself and they both started to cry for different reasons. Or when I have a test coming up. The awesome part of it is that, now they are older (3 years old and 20 months) they play all the time, and fight. It's very cute to see how their relationship grows and how they enjoy each other's company. I'm not going to lie, it is a lot of work. But it is easing it out as they get more independent. Please let me know if you would like more specifics of it. I hope this helps :)

I forgot to add : My sister and I are 11 months apart and we had an amazing time growing up. Being so close in age, we shared friends, hanged out together, fought like cats and dogs. But she is still one of the people I trust the most. The experience I had played an important role in our decision to have the boys close in age. Keep in mind that being siblings doesn't necessarily mean they will like each other. The close age helps them to have common interests, though.

Honestly, 4 years seems like a large age difference between siblings but it’s not. My older brother is 4 years older than me and we were close growing up and are even closer now (I’m 23 and my brother is 27). The age difference between my younger sister and my brother is 6 years and they are just as close. All that to say, don’t worry about age so much. Sibling love is something amazing and is something that can overcome years

Don't trouble your mind about a 4 year age gap being too much, if you decide you need more time. My sibling group (3 of us) is all four years apart- it wasn't by design, just happenstance My mom didn't get pregnant as soon as she expected the second time, and kept the trend going. We were in different life stages growing up, but we were still close. Bigger age gaps are kind of cool because there isn't so much comparison and rivalry. We each had our own identity. And now, that we're adults, I don't feel any age difference, we're just friends...wouldn't change it. Plus, I remember my sister being born, and that's really special to me.

I think you should go for about a 2,5-3 year age gap. By then, Wyatt will be in preschool and much more independent. You could also take off a bit more time so that you can still spend time with both children. And I think part of the reason why you weren't able to look after Jane and Wyatt simultaenously was that they aren't used to being together all the time! Sibilings will be different.

as you've mentioned you're afraid you're not giving wyatt enough attention and I've found that even though my parents would plan time to spend with each kid they ended up spending way more time they thought they would on one kid, at the expense of their health. When we were younger it was about taking care of our basic functions like feeding but when we got older it was about getting help with schoolwork and extracurriculars, which I think requires about the same amount of time, but ultimately I think it comes down to the kid because each kid is different and some are more independent than others and maybe you won't have to spend as much time. And there's no guarantee that siblings get along that well as my dad's five siblings (age gap of 1.5-2 years; lots of fighting when they were younger, now they are adults lots of passive-aggressiveness on who is better) could attest...

It will be challenging regardless of age gaps bc you will have a newborn and Wyatt. But Wyatt will gradually become independent. If you only want two kids, I say three years.Think about it: when one is a freshman in school, the other will be a junior. Or when he's 8, baby #2 could be 5. yrs old. It's not that big of a gap. I think one year is too quick because it will be hard for YOU. Those are just my thoughts.

A second child will take a lot off of your hands. Only children fully claim you, whereas when there's a sibling, they entertain themselves pretty much (with supervision of course). It's going to be rough the first few years, but then it will get easier, whereas with an only child they are always going to need your attention more.

Personally, I feel like you should have another baby because he/she would be close Wyatt's age. I'm a twin and my sister and I are inseparable, but if you ask me about my other sisters who are 10 and 6 years apart respectively, we are not as close. I know I'm a twin and we are the same age, but I honestly wouldn't have gotten through some tough times without her. Also, I have 2 nieces and a nephew. My niece is 15 and my nephew is 13 and my youngest niece is 7 and the 15 and 13 year old are inseparable, they are best friends, but the 7 year old they see her as if she's too young for them. They have different interests and play in different ways. They don't really like to hang out with her, which is why I'm always reprimanding them lol

I say if she wants, wait until he’s around 2 1/2. That gives her approximately 2 years more of completion of her specialty program. Not sure which PG she’s in.

Last note, in conversations try not to reduce a topic to an individual perspective live saying "as a black women." That tends to reduce the amount of ppl that can relate and chime in on the topic you're bringing up. Try keeping things more general, more inclusive that way.
