The transition to two kids HELP

So I've recently found out I'm pregnant, I already have a little boy who is three in January, he will be exactly 3 and a half when this baby makes it arrival, I struggle with him sometimes, hes such a good boy but i have an illness that holds me back sometimes. Now I'm pregnant and I'm terrified, I'm excited deep down but all I keep thinking it the transition to two kids, please tell me it's not as bad as I'm thinking 😩 I'm also very outgoing so I'm having to put my life on hold which is fine, its selfish to see it like that but I was just starting to have abit of freedom again

You will love it! My kids are 4 years apart, enough that we didn’t have 2 in diapers at the same time! The older one will help with the younger one and will love being an older sibling! Try to relaxxxxxx the more you stress the worse you’ll feel! Everything will work itself out.. it’s really not as scary as it sounds!

I think people with any type of illness find ways of making it work. I have an autoimmune disease and trying for baby #2. My son is currently 3 yrs old and there will be mornings were I need an extra hour of sleep from a flare up and he does his best at being good and quiet. And the days I need even more rest my husband let's me take a nap before he heads to work for the night shift. And then there's days were I have to push myself extra hard till my husband has a day off. It's never going to be easy for me; that's why I find comfort coming on here knowing I'm not the only one who juggles being a mom and having a disease.
