Ok so I just found out that im pregnant with baby number two. My due date is oct 14th which is my hubbys bday and my son landyn will turn two the end of nov. Now im lucky bc I have everyones support but im nervous bc they will b so close which in a way I think is great bc me and my bro are the exact same anount apart n we are so close but I.feel bad bc I feel like hes just a baby and that im forcing him to grow bc he will b a big brother. I knw I can handle this bc I do daycare and take care of alot of dif ages just afraid bc they will both be mine and my son is full of energy all boy and a bit rotten so I guess im just looking for advice or insite thanks :)

    I will be 22 next month and am 17 wks pregnant with my 2nd child. My 1st baby is only 6 months old. I think that things will be hard at first but I look forward to them being close and liking the same type things. These kind of situations wouldnt have been handed to us if god didnt think we could handle them. Lol everything happens for a reason. U will make it and be a great mommy to both.

    my first and second are 27 months apart, and my new baby will be 33 months younger than my second. I felt so guilty before my second was born, but I got over that quickly once he was here and officially a member of the family. It's sad when your baby isn't your baby anymore-they suddenly look so big compared to the new one, but it's an exciting time for them, too. Keep him updated on what the developing baby looks like, let him help with the nursery and have him pick out a doll for the baby. Then get him something special (from the baby) to open when he meets him/her. Just play up the big sibling role. It will be ok, and the age difference is really fun.

    It's so nice to hear of someone being in the exact same situation lol. Honestly I agree with you.completly about god giving us what we.can handle it will be very special to watch the bond they will have I'm kind of hoping for another boy bc I just think that would b so special to b into the same things but then id love a girl n again my bro and I were so close so I dnt think it matters as long as its healthy what are you hoping for?

    @magcaw thank u so much for ur advice while it made me cry it was really.good to knw im not reacting in a bad way bc by all means im excited for another beautiful baby I feel like I cnt help feeling guilty and bad for my son and taking away his "babyness" lol so im incredibly relieved to hear its normal and will go away lol

    @praying4our3rd that is sooo true it will be nice to not,have that my sister in law had her kids five years apart and she is having a real hard time with jealousy but her daughter can b a big help and is pretty self sufficient so that wud b nice to hah but im happy with the way things turned out I always.wanted my kiddies to b close so I just got what I wished for I guess hah
  • magcawmagcaw
    Yeah, you're fine. I had a scheduled c-section w my second, and I dropped my first off at my sister's house the night before and cried all night bc I felt like I was betraying him, or like he would somehow feel like he wasn't good enough so I needed to have another. All sorts of stuff that, in retrospect, was fueled by my hormones and nerves about having a new baby (and none of which happened, my older son was thrilled about the baby). Then again, what isn't? Lol! I wasn't any less excited abt my new baby, but things just spiral when you're prego and emotional.

    I am no longer with the father of my son and now have a new partner who has a daughter who is almost 4 and a son who is 2.5 and with my son at 19 months and another one on the way its pretty hectic ... but I love that they are all close in age and love to play together... I'm nervous about having 4 kids in total but so excited to give our children another sibling

    Im hoping for a lil man. But it would be easier if the baby is a lil girl since my 6 month old is a lil girl n her stuff is practicaly brand new lol. I dont care as long as the babys healthy tho.

    Im only 21 and my son will be 2 next month on st. patties day. My daughter will be 10 months on the 26th of this month and im due with this baby march 12th. I dont feel like im forcing my other kids 2 grow up. I will try my hardest 2 pay attention 2 my kids the same even tho I might pay a little more attention 2 the new born a little more cause they are a little more needy. I will still try 2 make them all feel loved the same.
