I don't know how to phrase it better to be honest. I am pg with number 2, and dd will be nearly 4 when it is born. I am excited, but I am also really worried about how my relationship with dd will change. Because I have bought her up on my own, we have a very close bond. As much as I am keen for her to have a sibling, I am also worried that I will regret how this changes things- it will no longer just be me and her. I have heard that this is quite a common worry, but is it one that is easily overcome, or does a slight feeling of regret stay with you? I suppose I am just worried about upsetting the status quo- we have it pretty good, and I'm not sure how another person will fit into the mix.
