Positive vibes… are 2 really worse than 1?

Our son will be 2yo in October, we’ve always spoken about having another but waiting for the right time. The other day my husband threw me a bit by suddenly saying:

“Why don’t we just start trying now?”

And I suddenly realised that I’m terrified! All the conversations over the years came flooding back to me…

“2 is much harder than 1”

“They’ll love each other but fight like mad”

“You just won’t sleep”

“If you have a good first one, the second will be horrendous”

“It’s just so hard”

Etc. The negativity is crazy!

Our son is great, he’s a smart, kind little boy that sleeps through the night. So that’s not helping the anxiety.

Does anyone have any good things to say? Good experiences? The negativity is just so 🤯 I love my son so much, but I’m having a hard time feeling enthusiastic to try again.
