I didn’t realize I had a difficult baby!

We just had our second baby last week and we have been enjoying it so much! The transition from 1 to 2 has been way easier for us than 0 to 1 baby.

I had a c section with our son and he was colic. He would literally never sleep, or lay flat EVER. I would cry all the time, wake up with severe night sweats and chills, and really missed my old life. (Obviously this all got better eventually and we love him SO much.)

I had a smooth sailing VBAC with my daughter and such a good birth experience. I was way more active this pregnancy and hardly had any swelling. The recovery has been a million times easier than a c section. She is such a good sleeper and is already doing 4 hour stretches, her demeanor is so much more calm. I already feel so used to my role as a mom now and we already follow a baby schedule and are used to not sleeping in lol.

I wouldn’t change my experience with my son but omg it just feels so much easier this time!

I would love to hear other women’s stories or if you have experienced something similar. Which of your babies was your easiest?
