Sorry if you feel this is a pointless thread, but I am just interested!
I am now 8 weeks into parenting DS2. DS1 is 3.3.
Initially, things were incredibly parallel. One labour a blueprint of one another, both kids diagnosed with tongue tie / jaundice / struggle to gain weight. Mixed feeding introduced for both.
The early weeks were incredibly / scarily parallel, down to the level of getting stuck in a huge traffic jam on the first trip down to the parents in law both times...
However, now the first differences are emerging. DS1 was on one wakeup per night from 6 weeks on, this one still two most nights. DS1 overslept his first 20 weeks of life, this one is quite chilled as well, but overall much more alert. DS1 was incredibly cuddly... I spent most of my mat leave with him snoozing on my shoulders and read an incredible amount of Kindle books. This one... far too interested to engage in snoozing, the world is just too interesting....
