So I'm newly pregnant with #2 (about 7 weeks 4 days), and even though I did want a second , I'm honestly already feeling anxious about being able to manage two small children at the same time . Our 19 month old is a joy but takes a lot of energy and time as it is, I'm honestly where I'm going to pull the extra energy from to cope with a newborn - especially taking sleep deprivation into account.
Any tips or experiences to share? Is it very stressful? How do you manage it all?
Also, was your second pregnancy very different from your first? Mine has been pretty similar so far, but I'm definitely showing a lot earlier this time. I didn't start wearing maternity clothes until 6 months last time. Yesterday I tried to put on a fitted shirt and I'm already sporting a small bump! When did you showing/wearing maternity clothes for your second pregnancy?
