[quote=Anonymous]Yes, I regretted having #2.  For the first couple months, maybe.  This was the time when #1 hated me.  She pushed me away and say "I no like mama."  I felt like I ruined the great relationship I had with her and why did I rock the boat when things were going so well.  Also, the first few weeks were painful breastfeeding wise and the memories of going through the newborn phase came rushing back at me, only they were not memories, but the real thing.  It was not much easier the second go-around.  Add to that #1 being jealous and demanding my attention, especially when #2 needed to be put down for a nap, if you can call it being put down when really I had to hold her all the time because she had reflux and cried a lot.  And then... things started falling into place.  #2 learned to sleep on her own.  #1 started to try to play with #2 and calm her when she was upset.  #2's vision got better and watched #1's every move adoringly.  #2 is now 6 mos old, and it's still not cake, mind you, but I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.  The girls are starting to entertain each other, and #1 is as fascinated with #2 as vice versa.  In another 6 months, I think things could be great.[/quote]
