[quote=Anonymous]I have a 5 year old and 8 month old. Baby was born when older one was 4.5. We waited so long to have #2 because she was such a hard baby - colic, reflux, didn’t sleep well, generally grumpy/unhappy temperament, impossible toddler, always fussy, got into everything, super clingy to mom and dad, and more. Everyone told me that the second would be easier, that we were “due to experience the joy of an easy baby” the second time around. Nope, second baby is great, but is the first one reincarnated.

Pretty much the same issues so far (colic has finally passed but such a difficult personality) and the older one is so much easier now, but still not easy compared to others and can be a handful. The hardest part is sleep - they both have low sleep needs and we are beyond exhausted. The baby is sleep trained, she just does not sleep as much as others do, and neither does the older one.

Did anyone else have two really hard kids? Does it ever get better? I am really hoping they end up being relatively easy teenagers because we so deserve it, but man, as of now it seems like they are slowly killing us.[/quote]
