Baby #2

I have 2 under 2 and thought it was going to be hard but honestly it was like a walk in the park compared to my first

I wanted another one but everyone told me it was hormones. Yes, yes it was! Dear god.

Honestly, you just do it and learn to adapt. My oldest was 10 when my middle was born. So I basically started over. Then when he turned 1 we decided to have just one more. Well one turned to two and then I had a 12 year old, an almost 2 year old and newborn twins. 3 under 2 was insane but we made it work. I accepted (and still do) any help I could get. I wake up each morning and start with one and move down the line. I also EBF my twins so I have to work everything around that schedule. They are all fun though.

Im going to be a mom of 2 under 2 😂 tbh the second baby was a surprise baby! I was breastfeeding at the time and hadnt gotten my period, had an odd bleed for a day or 2 but thought it was my period coming back. If I wasnt pregnant right now, i probably would have waited maybe 5-6 years to have another 😂

My daughter is 7 months old and I’m 14 weeks pregnant 🤣 I had these thoughts before getting pregnant and then I was absolutely mortified at first now I’m just sooo freaking excited. Truthfully though most people have like a dream job and mine has been to be a mom so I’m living my dream but I get my life is not for everyone I just really enjoy every ounce of motherhood even the hard days !

I have two under two and I think it would be 100% worse to wait and start over. Plus it'll be more difficult to foster a relationship between the kids with an age gap. My cousins (siblings) are 6+ years apart the second oldest practically raised the three younger. The oldest (who is 7+ years older) didn't have much of a relationship until recently (they are all adults now). I watch my two under two entertain each other a lot and know I made the right decision.

Plus there is a 23m gap between me and my older brother and an 18m gap between me and my younger brother. We have a fairly close relationship and shared a big portion of our friend group. Infact I married one of my older brothers friends and he married one of mine. (Neither of us started dating them until in college 🤣).

I have a 14 year old 3 year old and 3 week old!! However my family is 100% complete and definitely no more from me!! X

2nd baby has been so much easier! The hard newborn stage flew by in comparison to my first (who’s 4 now). I’ve been shocked how easier it’s been so far!

I've got 5 and wouldn't trade em for the world!!!!
