I never felt that guilt. I would think if anything the guilt would be for the younger siblings as they will be sharing you from day 1! The first child is the only one that gets you all to themselves for a while

In reality, I don't think anything was taken away from DS1 at all. We still co-slept til he was ready to stay in his bed all night, he still even breastfed for 7 months with his sister We all sat together to read books etc. I dunno, we just didn't have any issues of him attention seeking because there was a new little person in the house. He wasn't ignored or told to wait all that much.. it's amazing how you can carry on with things when bub is tiny. You get good at fetching food, drinks, toys etc with bub attached to the boob LOL.

Fingers crossed we have the same with this next one Different age gap this time, so it'll be interesting!
