If you had kids close together do you feel like your oldest doesn't get enough attention or is left out? My daughter will be 1.5 when my second daughter is born and I've had so many family members say it's sad that she won't get any attention when the new baby is born. I know it will be hard with a newborn and an 18 month old but I plan on involving her in everything possible and I would have never tried for another baby if I didn't know I could handle 2 close in age.
