Sadness before first birthday?

NerdyMama2

DD is turning one in two days and I'm really sad! This is most likely our last child and she's not going to be a baby soon. Anyone relate?

Im going to say you're probably on the more normal side of this than I am. 

Last year, I couldnt give my baby one too many bites of the cookies I made, or watch him light up on Christmas, or watch him get down to commercial jingles.

 

I love that he's more of a person now.

I have a harder time with DD2 growing up than I did with DD1. DD1 just turned 7. I am cool with it. When DD2 does? Not so much. I miss my babies as babies....sometimes.

I feel the same! The milestones DD hits are much harder for me than when DS started walking, smiling, etc.
