[quote=Anonymous]As someone who was exactly in your position and is currently a couple months in with #2, I think what you’re feeling is completely normal and I have to say that so far #2 has been so much better than I imagined. Yes it’s hard and our family dynamic is a bit different (we also have a 4 year old) but you get into a new groove pretty quickly and it becomes your new normal. Since my older one is a bit older I was really worried about going back to sleepless nights, diapers, naps, etc but the second time around at least you know how fast time passes and that it’s all just a phase.

DH wanted a second and I was pretty ambivalent but I am so glad he pushed me and I truly can’t imagine life without #2. The fear of the unknown is so much scarier than the reality of it. And for every challenge the good far outweighs the bad.

I was pretty negative/freaked out/ambivalent until the baby was born, and then I fell in love immediately. That isn’t always the case but I think you will find you worried for nothing. You got this!! Congratulations.[/quote]
