Two kids

Stephanie

We just brought our second girl home a couple days ago. Our first is almost 22 months. She's so sweet with the baby and it's amazing to see. But I'm having a really hard time dealing with the guilt of not being able to play with her as much I used to. Luckily, my husband and her are literally best buds and have always spent a ton of time together so it's not a huge shift for her.. But it is for me. Especially because I can't physically do a lot yet and I also have a baby attached to me most of the day.

Any tips on how to still engage with my toddler while caring for baby? I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually, but I'd like to hear how other families manage it.
