Positive stories of Second child please :(

[Thewrongdirection]

Currently 30 weeks pregnant with DC2.
Very much wanted pregnancy, TTC for 15 months including a horrid miscarriage.
Over the moon when we found out I was finally pregnant but throughout my pregnancy all I have been told is negative stories about having a second child..my DC and I have a very close relationship, DH sadly isn't around very much due to work so it has always been DC and I for days / weeks on end at times. Many friends have had their second child before Us and honestly not a single one has anything positive to say - They seem insistent on telling Me how badly my relationship will suffer with DC1, how he will feel neglected most of the time... my heart is honestly breaking at the thought and now I'm terrified.
DC1 is a Boy and I'm also pregnant with another Boy, this seems to be the main factor as to why it's going to be so difficult!?
Does anyone have any positive stories for me please?

"how badly my relationship will suffer with DC1, how he will feel neglected most of the time"

Oh I don't think that's inevitable at all. I firmly believe in the network effect - more intra-family relationships increase the strength of all the individual relationships.

Biggest difference with a second child coming along is that you stand to lose more or less any remaining "spare" time! :)

But the upside is that you get #2 out the way and then you can focus on #3, and that's when the fun really starts.
