[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]By the time your baby cares, the teen will be independent. I have a competitive athlete and a 6 year old and the drive and determination the 6 year old witnesses is only good for her. [/quote] Exactly, between the 9 months gestation and the infant year, it will be 2 years before the baby knows night from day and isn’t sleeping most of the day. Then another year before real talking etc takes shapes. In 3 years I presume teen daughter will be off to college and living her own life. For the next 2 years mom and baby are one unit, then baby is portable and sleeping a lot. So the busy schedule and “equal” time won’t be an issue. Unless as others pointed out, you don’t not plan to parent either of these children. While Mom is pregnant you should be prepared to take over dance chauffeur duties if she doesn’t feel up to it and of course stay home with the baby if Mom plans to resume full freight afterwards. Breast feeding will be the major issue if she chooses that the first year and doesn’t pump. [/quote]
