Question

34 weeks today I have a scheduled c-section for may 16th, I have a son who is turning four in June. How many of you moms were nervous bringing in baby number 2? I'm so excited to see him and hold him, but on the other hand I'm very nervous at the same time. Nervous in the sense of how everything is gonna change, I'm so used to our normal daily routine (I'm very much a creature of habit). Wondering what you ladies felt beforehand and how you felt once your second little one was here?

Totally normal.

I was nervous for the if change too, my daughter is 3.5, so she is already set in her moody toddler ways as an only child, and the center of mom and dad's world.

So I did a lot of stuff to prepare her. She got a stuffed unicorn, then we found a mini one, so I got it for her and " her unicorn  had a baby". Every time I dropped something I would ask her to help pick it up, making her feel needed, because she was mommies little helper. We got books from a family member about the new baby, being a big sister, mommy breastfeeding.

I ended up spending an extra 2 days in the hospital, so she didn't get to meet the baby right away, and she didn't get to see mom for 2 days because I was hooked up to a few machines and we didn't want to scare her.

Don't stress to much, people have been having multiple kids forever and kids adapt. ❤️ best of luck mama.
