DD1 is 2.8, DD2 is 5 weeks.
I'm not loving this. I don't think I'm cut out for it.
With dd1 it was frustrating to be stuck on the sofa feeding or battling with no naps but I was elated... This time those things are just driving me to despair.
Everyone says your second baby is more relaxed.. Well dd2 isn't. We've had fussy evenings for a couple of weeks and she's fussed from 11-2 today.
It took forever to get us out and now the fucking thing on the car is telling me a tyre is flat. So I've driven home and I'd left the front door open.
I can't bear to go back in the house. It's a shit tip and would feel like ultimate defeat given how long it took to get out the door in the first place.
I guess I forgot about this newborn bit. Hopefully this is just a bad day but man I'm not loving this at all. There's no elation this time around. Sure, dd2 is lovely, but it feels more frustrating than anything else.
