Sorry I can't help but I'm in the same boat so following this post 🙈

This is similar to me my kids are 18 months apart. For us now my kids are 3 and 5 and they play together and are best friends which is nice. It was hard at times with a newborn and one year old but just take each day as it comes and try and enjoy it all x

Mentally your much more prepared and it kind of feels normal but it’s sooo hard to give the other one attention while dealing with the a newborn ! I got a 4 year old and a 6 week old and wow it’s tough on another level but mentally I am stronger x

Following as my second is due in 5 weeks and my son is 15 months 😅

14m between my first two! It can be hard in the early stages but there’s a lot you can do to prep/make it easier xx

It is good, there is more love and chaos but it is a lot of fun. Like with your first you figure it out and just enjoy the process, I am much less worried about things going well or a specific way that with my first. That has been the biggest change for me, I am more flexible now 😊 congratulations!

it’s a difficult adjustment at first, and can be quite stressful having to run around after both all the time, but it does get easier as time goes on ! my eldest will be 2 in 2 months time, and my youngest is 6 months today, and it’s still stressful and draining, but it’s definitely easier than it was 6 months ago ! you’re more than welcome to pop me a message at any point !😊

It’s an adjustment as your tot won’t completely understand why they don’t have you the same way anymore. I would just encourage you to keep your tot as involved as possible so no jealousy or behaviors start. After the first couple of months it’s starts to get less foggy. Get out of the house as much as possible we got a ready to grow graco stroller and it is a lifesaver I was taking them to the library story times as much as possible or walks to keep my sanity and keep them occupied. They eventually become besties it’s so beautiful to see. You’ll do great mama 🫶🏼

Your be fine I’m a mum if 5 you adapt like we have to everyday in the life we live. The bond your two little ones will have is amazing though it’s worth everything. Your have your off days of course but you got this. It’s a magical moment in your life enjoy it run with it lol x

It was easy. It might be hard at times with needing attention but otherwise than that everything will get better with a routine etc. I'm a mother of almost 6 lol

To answer your question, by having sex, right?! 😂 all love. ❤️ But me too, almost. I’m about 4.5 weeks pregnant and I have an almost 11 month old. I’m excited though! My husband and I were going to start trying in January, but we did the deed just outside of the fertile window and it took. God’s plan. We got this mama! 🥰

I have a 4 year old and 6 month old and really struggling atm 😩 my 4 year old is always being naughty and not listening and answering me back and my 6 month old is going through separation anxiety and teething and only naps for about 15 minutes in the day so really fussy and wants 2 be held a lot 😩 yesterday for nap time I put her in a sleeping back and she napped for 1 hour and 15 mins so gonna give that a try again today and see if that helps x

@Sarah you have got this some days and phases are harder could you try a reward chart for your 4 year old

@Sharon it doesn’t feel like I have at the minute feel like I’m abouts 2 have a mental break down 😩 my 6 month old just never seems 2 stop screaming and it’s driving me absolutely mad and I could try it but I don’t think it will work as I’ve tried similar before and she just doesn’t care 😩
