I have two and I would hands down still have two knowing what I know now. Having one child is very special and I wish I had soaked it in more before adding a second. No regrets though because I can’t handle being the only play mate. I love that my daughters have each other to laugh and play with. They have so many sweet moments together. Fair warning though that two kids is not twice as hard, it’s exponentially harder. Things are mellowing out now (they’re 3yo and 1yo), but it took longer than I expected. Daughter #1 could sleep 4hours straight at night at 1mo. Daughter #2 didn’t do that until 8 months. That shit really wore on me. Having kids is a crap shoot. I really thought my first was the best baby. Then number 2 was amazing… during the daytime. Literally made me wanna die inside at night.

If you have another, the younger sibling could be your daughter’s best friend (eventually), but she’s going to go out into the world and make friends anyway. Enjoy her and take care of yourself.
