Will try not to make this really long....DS is 2.3 and DD is 3 months. From day 1 loved being a mom to DS and have always had a great time with him, doing lots of things, seeing people, etc. Now that I have 2 I feel useless at keeping them both happy and it makes me panicky and anxious when I know I have a full day with both of them and nothing planned. DS is in nursery 3xpw so it's not even all week but I just don't know what to do with them that will be entertaining and keep DS happy and will fit in with DD feeding, sleeping, etc. I seem to find it much harder to think of things to do with DS now when before it didn't seem to be an effort at all.
I know it sounds trivial compared to lots of things other people deal with but it is really upsetting me that I feel that I can be a great mom to one child at a time but not to both of them at the same time.
If anyone has any advice I would really welcome it.
