How do you cope having 2 babies so close together?

Question

I just found out I'm pregnant so I went for a dating scan and I'm 17 weeks, I already have a baby he is 7 months so I'm due 1 week after his first birthday, I don't know what to do!! How are people coping that have had babies that close together??

Answer

It's actually not that hard it seems harder then it is but I had my daughter and then when she was 3 months old I got pregnant with my son I thought it was going to be super hard but always remember to spend time with your oldest baby because sometimes they can get jealous so what I would suggest is always including the older baby to help you with the younger baby and make it fun for them that's what I did for my 2 😊 they are super close they are 3 and 2 years old now and let me tell you terrible 2s ain't no joke 😂 and I'm pregnant with baby #3 it's a roller coaster but I wouldn't trade it for the world you'll get use to coping with it newborns are easy they eat sleep and poop 😂 once they are in their mobile stages like crawling or walking that's when it gets a little harder but you can do it 🙏🏼👍🏼

Answer

Wondering this as well, I’m 18 weeks today, I’m due 10 days before my daughter turns 1.
