As others have said the excitement of newborn cuddles, the proudly showing off their brother at daycare and to family, all bring lots of joy into the house. There is always a lot of laughter. Our girls are 20 months apart and they were doing nudie runs around the house and giggling together. Ds is 18 months younger than dd2, she adores him she loves getting his dummy and makes sure he has his blankie and a toy. She was a bit rough to begin with but she is learning. Ds would only roll to see what his sisters are up to until today.

There are so many positives. Dd1 has regressed in tt but I was in hospital for a week then Ds was born and we moved house so she has a lot going on. There have been no sleep issues though, and i swapped to cloth nappies as two in nappies full time and one part time got too expensive.
