Subject : Having another baby??? (Also in baby, toddle)

For those of you that have more than one baby, We would like another but worry bout attention getting taken away form lo - I know it may sound silty but I am so torn! I would like another but worry about finances too! Oh don't know what we'll do!

Also was it really difficult going to 2? Was it hard on finances? How did your 1st lo react to the new baby?

Thanks!

Don't worry too much about your finances they do sort theirselves out, in a way it is harder, having to get a lot less time to yourself than before, and your coping with a newborn and a toddler, but for me the pros outweigh the cons.

I'm lucky because daniel really took to sophie, they adore each other and even though sophie's only 6 months, they play with each other in their own little way.

As for the attention given to the older one, i just make sure that couple times a week i have sum time alone with just daniel, even if it's just focusing on his bath, and his dad looks after sophie.

It's really not as bad going from 1 to 2 kids, at least this time around you'll have a better idea of what to do.

Hope it helps xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks for replying!

I think I do want to have another cause I think that I wouldn't want to be an only child but my main worry really is the financial side. Getting the calculator out and maybe start trying next year....
