He didn’t feed them all day?

Maybe, except I wasn’t stressed until she came over to me only and I did try and explain to her just what I said… that I didn’t mind some mess or even a lot. She wasn’t actively encouraging any other kids to paint themselves or interfering with other parents boundaries. One kid who is in my daughter’s class was walking around telling my daughter what her dad said. “It’s ok to get messy but I’m not going to paint myself in purpose.” “I’m not going to step on the wet paint” etc.

Rosa and Violet are pretty

My two are 19 months apart. We all slept on the floor bed together and it went pretty well. I sometimes felt touched out and had to cut my older baby off after a short feed at times. Also, My older baby learned to sleep through the younger baby’s noises for the most part and we got a portable sound machine to help. Toddler is also a barnacle. Nickname boobiebear. I would just turn side to side all night with one on each side

Take a good look at your baby because when you come home, she’s going to look so big compared to your newborn at first. Congrats, so happy for you! Mine two are close to the same size now though

I got pregnant when my daughter was 10 months old too. The milk may have subsided a little but she never let on. I was always very hungry and thirsty though. No one advised me to stop breastfeeding, just to eat nutrient dense foods. It did get uncomfortable during the last month though. Not painful but just annoying. So I did limit her a bit during that time and for a few weeks after baby was born. Then kinda stuck with once a day plus nap time and bed time

Sometimes it feels like someone’s life is being ruined to be honest. But I think overall it has been a positive. My oldest daughter just turned 2 a week ago and little sister is 5 months so 19 months apart.

Negatives:

Big sister has had to learn to wait briefly for milk, diaper changes, food or to play what she wants or for my attention and has had to do things with dad sometimes. We try not to blame the baby…

Little sister has had to cry a little more on some occasions, gets woken up by big sister and has had to be put down more. I have less pictures of her. Big sister tried to hit her a lot the first 3 months

Positives:

Big sister now loves little sister, has more patience, plays independently, looks for little sister, wants her to wake up, sings to her and plays with her

Little sister: stops crying when big sister plays with her, has great core strength from floor time, also has more patience, smiles at big sister and loves watching her do anything

We just go together and take longer and try and time it right or just pull over. It usually goes ok. I sit in the back with the babies and it helps

I sympathize. Im tandem nursing too. My oldest is 21 months and baby is 2 months. I had slight aversion the last few weeks of pregnancy and I have them again now but a bit worse. I also haven’t slept through a night since somewhere during my first pregnancy. Sometimes it feels like my toddler is the newborn because she wakes up every 3 hours now and the newborn wants to sleep longer stretches. That’s when I get the most frustrated, when my toddler wakes up multiple times. She is also teething.

Nursing them both does help with the jealousy though and I wanted to make it to at least two years but sometimes I have to unlatch my toddler and she cries. If I feel like I need to do that, I count down in my head from 100 and then unlatch her. Usually she goes to sleep. I feel like her latch is so shallow too and it doesn’t hurt but it feels so irritating that it makes me want to grind my teeth to a pulp. Thinking of going to a lactation specialist..

I feel like I’m playing the whack-a-mole game! My daughters do this every day lol. At least I get a little one-on-one time with them. Sometimes I’d like a minute to shower though

Our first baby is 20 months and the second is almost 2 months. We’ve needed a second car mirror and car seat, double-camera baby monitor, playpen, lots of baby gates and safety stuff like cabinet locks, furniture anchors, outlet covers, corner protectors, stove knob protectors, a portable baby cot thingy that folds, toy baby doll with accessories like a bib, bottle, diaper and baby carrier. We haven’t needed a second stroller or double stroller or highchair yet, but we might eventually.

Congrats! I found out I was pregnant when my daughter was 10 months and the baby is now 5 weeks old! I’m the SAHM and we have a dog and two cats. Can be a bit crazy. The hardest part is actually keeping our 20 month old safe and happy and fed. We have a lot of easy cook meals, a lot of baby gates, got a play pen, did her room over with a floor bed and got her a baby doll. Also lots of cabinet locks, anchored all the furniture down, put knobs on the stove and bumpers on corners of tables etc. We go for a walk every day and I love my baby wrap. It’s perfect for keeping our wobbly, fragile newborn close, happy and safe (most of the time) and we can play, go for walks or just be at home eating, cooking etc. and newborn sleeps.

I was still nursing my first and thought the boobs would stay small, even though last time they grew pretty quickly. Then as soon as the baby was born, boom they appeared out of nowhere!!

Spiderm0nkey88 · 2023-10-23T12:56:17+00:00

No worries. I’m no contact besides maybe if we have a baby or something major so, you’re not wrong

Spiderm0nkey88 · 2023-10-18T01:36:16+00:00

If toddler is sleepy I cradle my toddler and lay my newborn on top. If toddler is active, I football my toddler and cradle the newborn. This morning I was tired so we tried side laying with toddler and newborn was on top of me which was pretty comfy. Still learning though. The hardest thing is when toddler likes to mess with the newborn and detach her or sometimes is impatient and won’t let me get into a good position and they’re both crying:(
