The transition from 1-2 kids, ACTIONABLE tips ✨🤍🍋

So you're having baby number 2!😍💜 How exciting! And nerve wrecking, I KNOW, trust me 😂. That's why I decided to share some tips for second time moms, as a mom of two kids myself! I wish more people talked about the transition from 1-2 kids because it completely rocked my world. Way more than having my first ever did.

🫶🏾I hope these tips help if you're currently pregnant with your second child right now! Make sure to swipe to that last slide, I feel like that's the most important one!

🚨Also, I will say this, lower your expectations, and then lower them again. Especially during the 4th trimester. It's all about survival mode. If everyone is breathing, ate something, and comfortable, you're winning. The house can take a break from being the normal standard of clean, or have someone come help. Really during that first year, I would lower all expectations until you learn to find your groove again. (and you will, one day!) It will start being easier to leave the house with both of them, you will be in somewhat of a rhythm, and the siblings will actually start to bond during that first year. 💜🤍

It will happen mama. and don't worry, your love isn't all taken up by your first child. Your heart literally just doubles in size and grows for the love of your second child. You will love them both equally as much. I know it seems impossible, but you will! 💯💯.
