Feeling bad for DS

So poor DS 2, I feel like I can't give him a solid routine for naps because I am constantly having to do things for DS 1. His morning naps I am constantly having to wake him from to bring my other son to school. Then the same happens when I have to pick him up just three hours later. Then he he has soccer some days and I have to pack up the baby and shuffle him there. I just feel bad. When my DS 1 was little my schedule was built around his needs and this poor baby's needs aren't always tended to it feels like. Excited for summer.

    I am sorry you are stressing about this. While things are a bit different for me because my first son is still so young (almost 22 months), I still often feeling like they both get cheated. I don't give DS1 the 1:1 time he was used to. I can't always play with him, and he even ends up waiting for things like meals, refills on milk, and even simple snuggles. And I also feel like I have no way to get DS2 on any kind of schedule (especially when DS1 has a bad habit of waking him up all the time.) I just try to constantly remind myself how much we are enriching their lives by giving them the gift of each other. There are so many positives to having a sibling that I try to forgive myself for the day to day moments when they seem to be cheated. But you are definitely not alone in your feelings. I am sure every single mother of 2 or more has felt this way at times,
