[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We went through the ringer with #1, from infertility to a traumatic birth to colic, unexpected serious health problems, sleep issues, breastfeeding problems, and more. Despite that, DH and I still very much want a second child and we love #1 with all our hearts and can’t imagine life any other way. But I don’t know how to overcome the fear of it being just as awful or worse the second time around. Anyone else been there? How did you decide what to do? [/quote] multiple people told me my first was one of the hardest they’ve seen due to colic, reflux and not sleeping. I accidentally got pregnant with #2, freaked out (I think I had PTSD from #1) and it’s turned out to be the best thing that’s ever happened. We knew we wanted more than one but were too traumatized (and still busy) to even think about it at the time I got pregnant. [/quote]
