Another baby

Im currently 29 weeks and my boy turned 1 last Tuesday. I cant say it was planned🥴 It was a big shock for us. But by now i am so excited to have a tiny lil baby again🥰 im bit worried about having 2 under 2 though!😅

Do it !! I love watching my boys grow up together 🥺

I have always wanted two children but I honestly couldn't think of anything worse than having another baby at the moment. I have seen so many posts about July 23 mum's having or wanting another baby now and it's worrying me that my boy is harder work than others and there is something not quite right. He still doesn't sleep through the night and I am exhausted. He has split nights where he can be awake for 2 hours- I have no idea how I could do his wakes and the babies wakes. He needs me ALL the time and I can't leave the room without him screaming , even when his dad is home from work. He wants to be on me or with him on the floor playing ALL the time. He has to be held and rocked for naps. I just genuinely don't know how I could cope with another baby with him like this. And it's worrying me that other 1 year olds aren't like this!

@Jess yep my 1 year old is the same,its 100% normal ! My first born didnt sleep through till 2 and he still sometimes wakes up!

Honestly it’s a battle In my brain everyday 😂 one minute I’m like yeah okay.. the next day I’m like no way this is hard work 😭

@Jess honestly your not alone! My little boy is so so hard work my health visitor has even mentioned the possibility of ADHD he is very difficult but I love him so much and wouldn’t want him growing up an only child. It’s totally normal how you’re feeling! I’m split in 2 minds half of the time I’m like there’s no way I could do this again and be pregnant when he’s so difficult then the other half of me just wants another one lol x

@Jess and my boy is the exact same! He is extremely difficult I cannot take him many places as he’s so hard work he will not have his nappy changed, he has to be rocked to sleep which sometimes takes me HOURS. He won’t stay with my partner or other people either as he always wants me and to make it worse he’s started to hit and bite, he will even try to bite himself if he is told no or something taken away from him that he shouldn’t have! X

@D3nizx yeah I know the feeling🤣 their so hard work then I see a pic of him so small and I’m like yeah I’ll have another one please😂

I’m 7 weeks with my second and while I’m nervous I’m also very excited and am looking forward to having another small baba again ❤️ I think the thing that helped me to decide was I knew that scared feeling would never go away no matter the age gap as there are so many unknowns and no matter when I conceived I would still be anxious so I decided I would rather my children be closer together as my first little one is such a people-person that I know he’d be thrilled to have a sibling ❤️ xxx
