Hello, I have posted here before, now I am expecting a second little one on the way. I am not sure if I should feel guilty only because i don't feel the joy or excitment i did with my first baby. I am 20. And my oldest is about to be one next month. I don't know if I should have waited but not sure if it would have matter, I was on BirthC. And yet I still had one. So yeah. also, I feel as if I let my family down, cause my mom was not happy about my first. But I just knew I wanted a family, to be a mommy, to have a husband and do all that stuff. Now that i have another I dont think she want to talk to me anymore, she doesnt now. But I dunno, again. My hubby is going to be gone next year, being deployed. So Im kinda worrid cause itll be me and two little ones, instead of one.
does anyone have any advice? It will help, I know I should talk to my husband, but I don't think he would understand, EXCATLY how i feel. Also, if anyone else had a young child and expecting another, could tell me their expreience it would be great.

Honestly, to me it didn't feel like that much of a change. It was way more stressful going from none to one, but not so much going from one to two. However, mine weren't that close together. I wanted to make sure my oldest was out of diapers, not as needy and that we got to spend a good amount of time with him before I had another. So they are about 4 years apart.
With your hubby being deployed, I'm sure it won't be easy, but just try to maintain a good relationship with your family because you will need someone to lean on during those stressful times. Your mom may be upset, but hopefully she'll get over it, like you said, you were on BC, so I'm sure it was a shock to all.
Good luck!!!
