I’ll let you know in June! My daughter just turned one day before Valentines and I’ve been going through the same thing 🙃
It's a LOT for the first couple of months but it continually gets easier and is the best thing ever ❤️ I've had age gaps of 22mo, 23mos, 29mos and 13years 😂 I prefer the closest together in the long run although the 29 months age gap was much easier on me during the newborn stage I feel it was harder on my toddler at that time.
Hii I have an 12 month old and a 2 weeks old NB. So far it hasn’t been to bad. My baby carrier is my life savor tho since my 12 month old still wants to be carried sometimes and loves attention. I’m barley going to stay home on my own this week so I’ll update lol or feel free to message me
@Michelle you carry your 12mo and the newborn or how do you do it? Mine is used to being carried all the time she’s always in the carrier she really doesn’t care for the stroller unless we’re outside so I’m nervous on how she’s gunna be once the baby comes
I’m not about to sugarcoat anything for you like people did to me it ain’t easy at all especially getting two ready for appointments etc I have help from my partner and my 12 year old and I’m still exhausted I have a just turned 1 year old and a now 3 week old and hopefully it gets easier but right now it’s draining but I stay positive so I don’t go nuts 🙃
Is abortion not an option? (Not trying to sound rude here, genuinely asking. I know it’s hard on some states )
Also happy birthday to your babygirl! Mine also turned one on valentines!
@Nikole Thankfully I live in one of the few states where womens reproductive rights are safe!!! We always knew we wanted our kids close in age. We actually started talking about having another one last week. I had quite the surprise this morning 😂
@Jasmine thank you for the bluntness. I’m honestly scared to go through the first trimester with a 1 year old. With my first I was soooo sick for the first 12 weeks of pregnancy I’m hoping this pregnancy will be easier for everybody’s sake 😂
That’s good! And that makes sense. Well I know everything will work out for you guys 🩷
My babies just turned 1&2 over the weekend. They were both 1 for 2 days lol. It was difficult, but as they get older it gets easier. 8/10 diffulty from ages 3 months to 10 months, now it's pretty chill most days. *knock on wood*
Congratulations! When my youngest was born (who turns 1 this Friday), my oldest was just shy of 3. I had been reading big sister books to her and tried to prepare her best I could. Thankfully, we never had any behavior issues & she’s been an amazing sister! That being said, the hardest part for me was that my partner became the default parent for her, per me breastfeeding etc my youngest. I wasn’t aware of how much I would ‘miss’ my oldest while being under the same roof. I don’t think it’s talked about very much! I’ve since come to learn it’s a very real thing (and it has gotten better) ❤️
Hey mama! I’m in the same boat. My son turns one today and baby number two is coming in late July! 🥰 We got this!
Hey, I’ve got just one baby (so far) but of all my friends I’m the only with one kid. And I always ask this question and they all said that from zero to one is the hardest one and that from one to two is easier, and gets even easier with more, of course any new born come with challenges, but I heard everything else is easier on the second time. Congrats !!!! I can’t wait to get pregnant again 😍
