You're not alone with those thoughts! I'm feeling exactly the same! My DS is 17 months and we'd like to start TTC our 2nd when he turns 2 but I have moments of excitement and moments of fear. I think it's perfectly normal!
Awww thanks so much everyone for your wonderful (and positive) replies! We are definitely going to have bub no.2 and I know that there will be tough times, but nothing beats the unconditional love you give and receive from these lovely little cherubs :-)
DS's first 2 years where full of sickness and sleepless nights for everyone, lots of screaming etc.
just after I got pregnant with dd, we were due to move into our new house. Choose to move DS into a bed at the same time he was 2. due to his sleeping issues we got a king single for him so there would be room for one of us if need be.
his sleep has dramatically improved, not 100% yet, but much better.
We just take one day at a time here, and DS is at the stage where if i'm exhausted in the mornings he can play by himself or watch tv, while I snooze or do something for me. He can also help a tiny bit, by picking things up for me that are on the floor, 'cause it's hard to bend with a new born.
I will mention though, I wish i had more help or had ds in creche more in the weeks leading up to the birth, 'cause I was more exhausted then, than I am now.
