I don’t necessarily have experience yet but I have a 2.5 year old and 19 weeks pregnant! I was nervous to have a second as I dont want my son to loose my love and our bond, will miss it just being us three etc. So many emotions with this pregnancy and trying to soak in all the love with my son. One thing weve done is sign him up for preschool, he just started and hoping this will give him some type of 1. Socialization with other kids 2. Some support besides us. We dont have any regular family that comes often so he really knows mama and dada. But now he knows his teachers names and speech is improving. Hes so confident leaving me now compared to the first week. I think it was an important separation for me to make to allow time to process a new family member coming into our lives. Also makes me feel less guilty that I cannot keep up with him all day and can save my energy for the parts of the day we are together and put lots of energy into making special memories. I am hoping this

Will help with our transition when the new baby comes. I feel your struggle. My heart strings feel tugged at everyday as I grow a bond with the little kicker inside me, thinking but what about my baby (2.5 year old) but I know itll all make sense when they get here. ❤️
