Not the favorite parent anymore

I’m having this too 😥 I have two boys 13 months apart and the eldest one is all for my husband now and does not care about me in the slightest because of our newborn needing me so much as I’m also breastfeeding 😓 it’s really sad isn’t it but when she gets older she will know who to come to for a cry. Her favourite will constantly change so don’t worry about it x
This is a very normal part of having 2 kids. You don't have the same time to take care of the eldest. It's a phase. The younger they are when you have the 2nd the better. In your case I believe 22 months means the eldest is knows you are busy. Perhaps get her helping out. My kids are going to be 15 months apart and I think it's young enough they won't know anything different.
I have 14/15 months apart he's now 17 months and I have a 8 week old. Since my bf works 2 jobs my toddler have been attched to my bf now that I love bc it have me spend time with the newborn and sometimes with my toddler. It's a temporary stage and it'll be ok. Try to get her to do stuff or help you like to get a diaper or wipes. That helped my son or watch a movie have the tot sit next to you and you hold the baby on the other side etc ❤️
