To Procreate or not...that is the question!!! Help!
My hubby & I have baby fever again like crazy...but im scared of adding another baby to the mix and im pretty sure my fears are silly but im afraid it will be SO much more work with 2 rather than one and they would have to share a room (is that super dufficult?) Also i have this weird thing in my head saying "wow i love my daughter so much how in the world could i have room in my heart for another child?" Did any of you have that fear? That maybe youd be taking something away from your first child by having a 2nd? Also do any of you have kids about 2yrs apart or less and how do they get along? I know i want more kids and i dont want them to be more than 2 years apart so that means i gotta get on it! Lol

When our son was one we decided to go off birth control and see what would happen, since it took ten months to get pregnant with our son after I had miscarried, we thought for sure it would take awhile. To our surprise within about three months we were pregnant. I was really worried about how I would feel about that baby and for most of my pregnancy I felt very detached from her, but once I realized she was coming either way, there was no way I couldn't love her just as much as I love him. I still find myself sometimes, feeling like I pay a little more attention to her but I think it's just because she's still small and he's so much more independent. So I just make sure I make one on one time with each of them everyday, so neither one ever feels left out.
As far as them being close together, mine are all either 1, 2 or 3 years apart. Each set of kids close in age are really good friends with each other..plus they can share a lot of things like same age appropriate toys, similar level books, same age movies, etc.
And the love.... There is no love like & mother's love! You will love each child "the most" & they'll each be your "favorite"! Lol That's the only way I know to explain it.
Good luck!
