This time around, I'm more go with the flow. Consequently, DD seems more go with the flow. I should probably try to be a bit more consistent with her schedule but honestly it's really hard to when I have her big brother to keep up with. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-more-laid-back-with-lo2#post-1928198 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 00:18:12 +0000 Corduroy 1928198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope I get more laid back. I'm only 8 weeks pregnant with #2 and I'm way more worried/anxious about everything this time around. Last time I don't remember worrying about anything during pregnancy. Lots of rules but no worries. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-more-laid-back-with-lo2#post-1928174 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 23:29:09 +0000 mrs. wagon 1928174@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolutely!!!!! I think her first taste of real food was a honey dipped donut. I don't think Wagon Jr. tasted sugar until he was past 2 years old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-more-laid-back-with-lo2#post-1928172 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 23:26:04 +0000 autumnlove 1928172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Way more. I was crazy with LO 1. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-more-laid-back-with-lo2#post-1928148 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 22:50:25 +0000 Mamasig 1928148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes - I think parenting wise I'm pretty laid back in general. But with the 2nd, I don't worry as much. It's such a great feeling. Honestly, I'm enjoying him more because I'm not worried about how he sleeps or eats. I just enjoy every bit of him! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-more-laid-back-with-lo2#post-1928096 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 21:48:08 +0000 MamaChin 1928096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolutely more relaxed. Still a stickler for sleep schedules but that's for my own sanity. Way more relaxed about what she eats, about putting things in her mouth, etc. She stole her brother's juice yesterday and I just laughed. Big bro didn't even have juice until he was 1.5! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-more-laid-back-with-lo2#post-1928089 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 21:42:47 +0000 MrsRcCar 1928089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was pretty laid back with N. I am still pretty laid back with E too. My kids are pretty great most of the time. I will admit that N sometimes gets way more screen time then I would prefer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-more-laid-back-with-lo2#post-1928070 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 21:26:47 +0000 winniebee 1928070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope I will be! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-more-laid-back-with-lo2#post-1928053 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 21:13:24 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1928053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>WAY more laid back. WAY. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-more-laid-back-with-lo2#post-1928041 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 21:06:19 +0000 matador84 1928041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>WAY more laid back. I was really high strung about feeding, sleeping, scheduling, screen time etc. with LO1. We still have rules and restrictions, but both my kids are easy and super well behaved so I have loosened up a ton. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-more-laid-back-with-lo2#post-1928037 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 21:00:08 +0000 cmomma17 1928037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope I am more laid back in the first three months with LO2! That was definitely my most high strung time with LO1! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-more-laid-back-with-lo2#post-1928036 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 20:58:26 +0000 Sparkler 1928036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, definitely. I took myself and parenting too seriously the first time around. There are a lot of ways to raise kind and respectful kids.</p> <p>And the amount of Halloween candy my 1 year old has eaten the last week would never have happened with #1! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-more-laid-back-with-lo2#post-1928016 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 20:39:49 +0000 Bao 1928016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With LO1 I felt I was pretty laid back, but a little bit more "by the book" than I am with LO2. There are things I do with LO2 I wouldn't have imagined doing with LO1. Maybe it was me just being a first time parent and feeling a bit more nervous about parenting, since it was all so new. </p> <p>On the other hand, there are a couple of things that I'm actually more conscious about the second time around. I've learned a little bit more over the past couple years by talking to others or doing research.</p> <p>If you have more than one child, do you feel you are more relaxed about certain things with your second LO? </p>
