Tell me how things changed when you had your second baby

[bornninthe80s]

What's life like with two? How did this affect your first born and your relationship with your OH? How do the siblings get on now? Any regrets? Did you always know you'd have two or was there a point you wanted just one?

I want to know everything

Mine are 4 years apart. The first month after DC2 was born was very difficult for all of us. DC1 had a hard time adjusting, and was throwing tantrums all the time and pushing boundaries constantly. I was miserable and depressed and felt I had made a big mistake having another baby. But after the first month it got easier and easier and more enjoyable. Now 6 months down the line, it is lovely and the DC1 just adores DC2.
