Ready for baby no 2?

Did anyone struggle with going from 0-1 baby but cope okay going from 1-2?
I’ve found it really difficult but I definitely want more than 1 so not sure when to decide about having baby no 2 & if I’ll cope ok?

1-2 was 100x harder for me. My second baby was much much easier than my first thankfully but my toddler took a good 2 months to adjust to having a sibling and you get very very little downtime if one doesn’t need you the other does.

I guess it depends what specifically you struggled with going from 0-1? I’d say the bigger the age gap the better x

Period delay

Took period delay last month but this month my period is late. Took test negative anyone had a similar experience.

Prolapse

Has anyone got a prolapse? I'm 99% sure I have one starting to protrude. I'm going to get checked out by the doctor. What can I expect? How is it managed? Has anyone got one and managed to conceive without issues still?

Co parenting

How do you co parent with a 2 month old? I can’t bring myself too let my baby go stay with her dad and his family but also don’t think it’s fair if she is away from him just because we couldn’t make things work🫠 navigating, postpartum and break up is fucking hard

The waiting game

Even tho it is going by so fast it just feels so slow :(. No labor signs. Patience is running low. I know it could be any day now but I’m so mentally and physically exhaustedddddd. I’m thinking of trying the castor oil soon 🥲
