Second pregnancy

Please no judgement, I’ve just found out I’m pregnant again, this is something we wanted but I can’t help but feel absolutely terrified!!

I have sobbed and sobbed and sobbed!!!

Any advice for two babies so close together? And due in the same month too!! I feel so scared!

My first 2 boys are spaced literally 2 years and 2 days apart. My second and 3 baby are 2 years and 2 months roughly apart. I was so scared too! The hardest part of it all was figuring out a new routine, but my biggest advice is go with the flow of things for the first couple of weeks. Try not overly stress things like naptimes and bedtimes. Finding a good baby carrier and baby wearing as much as possible! Utilize your support system if you have it.
My boys are 5 and 3 now and theyre crazy and rambunctious but absolutely best friends and dont like being separated. Congratulations!!

I’m new to 2 babies (I have 2 under 2 14.5 months apart) I was terrified with them being so close, best advice I have been given was if the older one is crying tend to them first they will remember it the baby won’t, give your self some grace try to go with the flow, baby wear when you need to, definitely ask for help and use your support system when you need it, also don’t stress about the little stuff, add the new baby into your routine you have already with your toddler so they aren’t getting upset with so many new changes. I hope this helps and congratulations!!

I have a 2 week old and a 16month old! I do what needs to be done for my toddler and go stop crying and then I will sort the baby.
It is amazing but it’s been hard work behind closed doors x
