To think going from 1-2 kids must be harder than 0-1?

People say the second slots in but I can think of loads of reasons why it must be harder. Sure, your first makes you a parent and there’s no bigger change to your world than that. However, the second totally changes your available time, finances, mental load, organisation and pretty much everything else! Or AIBU?

I don't see how. You go from a household with no baby items, completely unprepared, into the brand new world of parenthood. While I've no doubt going from one to two has its challenges, I don't think you can compare.

First was definitely harder! Absolutely traumatised! 😂 Second came along when my daughter was 3 & a half and life got a bit harder again but now they are 4 & 8 it's actually much easier because they play together and entertain each other.

I found 1-2 much harder than 0-1
