Congratulations.
My first two were 16 months apart,then two years exactly between 2 and 3.Then 27 months between 3 and 4,23 months between 4 and 5,then 15 months between her and 6,then 14 months between her and my youngest,who'll be 25 months when the new baby is born.
I think you have to be prepared for being busy.If you treat yourself to a good sturdy pushchair with room for two babies and all their gear,there's no reason you can't get out and about as you would with one baby.I had a new baby before the older baby was walking with three of my babies,which was hard work.Changing two nappies is extra work but it just becomes the normal thing to do.You find a routine that works for you all.
Above all take time to enjoy it ,however busy you are.Although it was hard work when my youngest was tiny,I've a lot of very happy memories of that time.
Oh wow Del CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tom and Jc are 17mths apart,all good fun! Start saving though,2 in nappies is expensive business!! And yes Jo is totally on the money yet again,a good double makes life easy with 2 little ones!
Oh I'm so happy for you! x
