Rant
Yesterday, I spent 30 min crying at 1am because I realized I only have 19 weeks left of being the mom of only my son. Today, I spent the day playing with him, and I couldn't stop myself from thinking when is bed time? Full of contradicting feelings, motherhood

Message me if you want about any tips from me. My toddler loves his little sister and does not feel jealousy and has a very close bond with me even still with the new baby

It will be okay. I went through this too (my 2nd is now 4 months). I spent most of my pregnancy spending real quality time with my son as much as possible. Get into good habits and closeness with him now and it will pay off when the 2nd is here. Eye contact, really feel his feelings with him and really listen to how he's trying to communicate with you. Give him your all and he will notice. Play with him as much as possible and chores later. Bond with him so closely. This will be best for both of you and will help the relationship between you both after 2nd is there too. You will have established a very close bond and he will know he's important to you after adjustment too. Of course take care of newborn all the needs but also pay close attention to your 1st. If you're with baby doing anything and toddler is talking to you, pay close attention. Put your hand on his cheek and gently rub it for close affection, it is often easier with one hand for toddler and the other having baby. That way they both feel love
