Baby no. 2

I’m due my second any day now and my boy is 14 months old. I’m definitely anxious about the idea of two so young, but I know we will settle into a routine and when they get a little older they will keep each other busy. Sometimes I see my boy playing on his own and he looks so lost, he’s made to be a big brother! You got this ❤️

Going through the same thing! 2 under 2 just seems crazy but I like knowing they can grow up together

I have three under three and obviously middle girl is 15 months and a newborn so I found it a bit tough in early days but believe me it’s so cute to see them grow together and they gonna be very good friends.And by times it gonna be more easier. Best wishes for you fingers crossed mama

I got a puppy when my little girl was a week old. Seeing these two together is adorable but i totally fele like it's gonna end up feeling like a 3 under 3 😂😭

I’ve been in ur situation and still am it’s hard but does does get easier overtime I still struggle here and there I’ve got a 1yr old and 2month old

My son is 2 weeks old, and my daughter is 22 months. At the moment, we’re just surviving, I’ll be honest 🤣 I’m hoping once my son is a little bit older, we can have more of a routine going!

I’m due in the next few weeks here (maybe sooner since I’m already dilating) and currently have a 14 month old- I’ll admit, the 1st and 3rd trimester have been rough, especially having a baby/toddler in the higher percentile already. My bf has had to step up and help a lot during those trimesters and now more than ever because of all the aches/pains I get. I go between wondering how I’m going to care for 2 because I already feel SO tired all the time, to thinking it’ll be easier when they’re both here because I won’t be pregnant and will have more energy and ability to do things once I’m healed pp. The reality is, it’ll never always be easy, even with 1 child. You go through phases, and you slowly get the hang of it until another phase comes around- it’ll be the same with 2, but you need to remind yourself the “hard” days don’t last forever, they’re temporary, and one day you’ll have 2 kids playing with one another and keeping one another a bit more occupied! Hope this helps, congrats🫶🏼

@Destiny thank you ❤️ these words are really encouraging

I have an almost 2 year old and a 9 weeks old, 21 month age gap. Don’t forget your baby has 9 months to change and mature, plus you have 9 months to prepare. It’s one of those situations when you think about it and the thought of it seems impossible but it’s amazing how you adjust. I also kept my daughters day care routine so have 2 days a week jusy me and baby too

Also it’s so wonderful seeing your eldest interact with little one, and really just adds to your life in a positive way.

The difficulties I would say is both needing you at once ie crying, but it’s still early days for us and still adjusting. But I think it’s a lovely age gap and so glad we had baby no 2 when we did (even if he was a little suprise) d

we’re not doing too badly to be fair! My daughter goes to nursery 3 mornings per week which gives me time with my newborn, and my husband is still off work. The times that I’m alone with them at the minute is minimal as I still can’t lift my toddler so my husband is helping with that, however when he’s back to work I’ll just have to crack on. Generally time alone with both is fine, until the toddler has a kick off then it is that bit more exhausting 🤣
