Two Under 2
LO#2 isn't here yet and I am already annoyed with the comments!-Vent
And it seems like its mostly family! Like I don't know it is going to be hard? I need my mom telling me that I am going to have to neglect my DS because the new baby will need me soo much. Or my MIL telling me that before DS we must not have known how to make babies (because it took us 4 yrs-we faced IF) but now we can't stop making them?? OH my that should make me laugh right??

People are so dumb...having 2 under 2 is like having a target on you that says please comment on my sex life and supposed lack of knowledge on how babies are made. I have learned to ignore people, but my DH still gets pretty upset. His boss actually recommended that "he learn to keep his d*ck in his pant!" We also struggled with IF when concieving DD. It took us 2 years and lots of trying to get KO and with DS I got KO the first time we had sex after DD was born using a condom that broke and following up with the morning after pill that failed. I honestly don't have the patience to tell everyone our detailed story, so I just smile and tell people how happy and lucky we are and how amazing my kids are. Good luck and congrats!
My Mom did this a lot at first too... mine are 23 months apart. I thought 2-3 years was "normal spacing". My brother and I are 2.5 yr apart!
She said that we hadn't had enough "alone time" with DS1 or something like that, to which I replied, "well #2 will NEVER have the alone time we had with #1"... that kind of shut her up.
Totally feel your pain. I have a seven month old and found out last week we are around 6 weeks pregnant. Took five years to have our little girl and now seven months later....here we go again. My sister has been the only one with the comments. She actually told my daughter (I'm sure in her own joking way) to enjoy being the only child for a few more months because we won't have time to spend with her when the new one gets here. It's all in how you parent. We have already vowed to make it a point to not change anything we are doing now when it comes to parenting.
I am getting ready to just start telling people this pregnancy was an accident. It has to be easier than answering all of the questions about why the hell I would possibly want to do this to myself.
