It is really hard. My son was had just turned two when my daughter was born. If it wasn't for him being so independent, I don't know what I would do. There are lots of times though when he wants me to hold him & play with him, but I have to hold his sister 24/7. He gets jealous & hated her at first but has learned to be better about it. He knows I love him & I give him special one on one time whenever I can & include him in playing with her. The newborn stage was so hard. Luckily she slept alot during the day. Hopefully your new baby will be easier than mine. She is not independent at all, very whiney & fussy. Clingy, hates being put down & if I'm not right next to her at all times, she screams & won't play on her own. She's almost 7 months now & doesn't sleep through the night still waking 2 or 3 times to eat. I can't wait till she's crawling so she'll be less dependent on me to play with her. It's hard now but I just think about how she will be walking & playing with her brother b4 I know it. I don't know if I'll have a 3rd after her. I'm afraid to have another one like her lol. You'll find your routine though it'll be okay😊
Advice?
Any advice on becoming a second time Mom? My son will be two when my new baby boy is born. I feel like I just got my independence back (no bf, able to shower, he plays nicely by himself, nap time is my nap). When the new baby comes, I know I’m going to be overwhelmed, exhausted, no time for me, back to one day one night at a time. My son and I are joined at the hip, I’m a SAHM and we play and cuddle all day. I’m scared he’s going to feel like mommy is not there for him fully when my attention has to be split. Any tips on how to get into a new routine once I have two? Any ideas how to make life easier? I’m nervous fir this huge life change!!!
