When does it get better?

I have a just turned three year old and a 15 month old and it’s getting easier now. She’s started walking and they play together.
I’d say it was hardest whilst she was tiny because she needed me all the time and was breastfeeding a lot and my toddler was jealous.
She still breastfeeds but my toddler knows it won’t take long now.

The juggling is the hardest part and honestly you will have easier days and harder days. I have a 18 month and a 5 month, it’s difficult as they are both very dependent on you at that age so it feels impossible to split your time. I try to make a lot of time for my toddler and baby just slots in. As my son is the one who has the routines set in place already so it’s easier for baby to just go with the flow. Do you have anyone around you who is able to help? If so lean on that, I am very fortunate that my partners mum will have my son one morning a week so that I get 1-1 time with my daughter at a sensory class. It’s definitely not easy but the juggling will seem less daunting and overwhelming in a few months, it’s a big adjustment so go easy on yourself I’m sure your doing a fab job❤️

I felt exactly the same! The first few months were so hard adjusting. It was so hard to juggle wanting to be there 100% for them. I think when my youngest started to sit up and play it got a lot easier. It’s my youngest 1st birthday today and honestly I feel like it’s the best thing I did having a second. Hang in there it deffo gets easier ❤️❤️
