Hi there ladies,
I was just wondering whether any of you had experienced an 'easier' time with your second (or subsequent) child/children?
I love my son dearly, he is my world, but boy is he hard work to look after. He doesn't sleep well, doesn't eat well and is somehow always on the go. He has well and truly broken my husband and I.
We would love to have another child and give our son a sibling (he adores his cousins and pretty much any other baby he meets) but we are so put off with how tough we find absolutely everything (and always have). We literally have no energy left. Everything seems to be such a huge monumental effort for us but it appears to us that others have it so much easier with their children. Could it be that we just have a particularly demanding child or are we just pathetic light weights? What are your experiences? I'd love to hear from you!
Thanks in advance,
:) xXx
