Help! How did you feel after your second child was born?

After having my second child it was a very hard adjustment period since my other son was clingy as your daughter is. You really have to try to get her used to the idea of another baby. Maybe buy her a baby doll and tell her that is her baby and try to teach her things that you will be doing for your own baby. Also try to schedule time with other moms with babies and toddler so that she can start spending time with other children and their brothers or sisters so she can lessen the clingy attitude towards you. I felt more scared then guilty because my husband and I really tried getting our first child used to the idea of having another baby in the house. I did love my son right away but as I said it was hard at first getting a schedule down that worked for both of them. Now we have three boys and a girl due in two weeks and it is much easier. Hope this helps! Good Luck!
