Any mommas have a newborn and a 2 year old?! We are working for #2 and my daughter is only 16 months, by the new baby she will be 2! How do y’all do it?
Just had my second daughter and my first is 20 months old. Thankfully newborns sleep a lot in the first couple of months. Honestly, I take it day by day. She throws more tantrums now becuase I can't just drop the baby or whatever im doing to play with her but it helps to get them involved. When I feed the baby from a bottle she likes to help hold the bottle or if I need a paci or blanket that is near I ask if she can get it for me. Just using words of encouragement and not getting frustrated. It's tough but women have don't it for hundreds of years. Its ok to be nervous. 👍
We got pregnant with our second a month after she turned one. So she wasn’t even two when we had our newborn. It honestly wasn’t that bad, she was a great sleeper and we had her on a great schedule. Only issue we ran into was she was transitioning to a toddler bed and it was rough for a few weeks. But now they are super close :) we got pregnant with our third a month after our second turned one so we will be in the same boat again
Try having a new born & a 1 year old 😯😯 Its work but were making it . He's a great kid which makes it easier . also my husband has been a HUGE help idk what I would do without him .
Thanks ladies. I just want to be a good mom. Your encouragement means a lot. I guess we will just see when God wants to grant us another child...and go from there.
