mommies with 2 kids or more

Hi mommies who have 2 kids or more!

How's it going? if you even have the time to log into the bump anymore...

so how has your life changed since going from 1 baby to 2?

how many months apart are your kids?

what is the biggest challenge?

DH and I are planning to start trying for #2 very soon and I just wanted to get a heads up on what to expect... if all goes to planned then our kids will be about 25months apart or more... 

TIA!

Re: mommies with 2 kids or more

  • I don't have 2 just yet, but I will in a few months. I got pregnant when my son was around your son's age. DS will be around 23.5 months when #2 gets here. I'm a lurker over on the 2 under 2 board, and from what I gather, there are hard times in the begining, but once a routine is established things get easier. But then I also heard that once #2 becomes mobile things get a little crazy. I'm a worry wart so I worry about things like how to navigate shopping/outings with 2 kids, but I know I'll manage. Good luck!

    Honestly, for me going from 1 to 2 was SO much easier than going from 0 to 1.  That just totally rocked my world and I was a mess.  The second time around has really been a breeze for the most part.

    My kids 3.5 years apart and of course I don't know any different but for us this age difference has worked out so well because Maddie is older and a bit more independent and loves to help out with her sister, etc.

    The biggest challenge for us is scheduling... everything!  Sort of the same as when you have your first like trying to figure out how the heck to get everyone ready at the same time to leave the house, timing feeding, naps, etc.  Up until now the nighttime sleeping hasn't even been a really big deal but the past few weeks has been sort of tough.  I'm sure it'll get better though.  Good luck!
