Two under two is to too bad. You'll do great. Sometimes it's a little hectic but the older ones really do just go with the flow </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574578 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 09:02:25 +0000 Honeybee 574578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours are 21 months apart and I think it's the perfect age gap. DD and DS are great playmates and I think they'll get even closer as they get a little older. Having two under two has actually been much easier than I thought it would be. Yes I'm tired all the time, but otherwise it hasn't been nearly as hard as other people said it would be. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574420 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 07:48:29 +0000 mrbee 574420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StbHisMrs: 22 months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574361 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 05:01:07 +0000 StbHisMrs 574361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: cute cute cute, thank you for sharing :) How old was Charlie?</p> <p>@Mrs. Superhero: Boy I hope that is our case, she gets really clingy when her step-sisters are here! She does try to share her toys with Chloe (4.5) but Chloe doesn't want to share :(</p> <p>@Mrs. Jacks: Our situation is a bit chaotic now, I do expect it to get worse, ;) Hoping for some fun to be mixed in too!</p> <p>@mamabird: That is exactly my reasoning, he thinks the three years between our youngest two is too much. I'm beginning to see how right he is. On the flipside our oldest (11) and Maddy (16 mo) are very very close, nothing comes between them :)</p> <p>@Mrs. High Heels: close enough!! Ours will be 22 months apart. </p> <p>@chopsuey: that's good to hear :)<br /> I'm wanting to start potty training her, but I'm kind of worried about a regression. She sleeps poorly already no regression wirry there though!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574357 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 04:27:47 +0000 chopsuey 574357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was worried about having 2 under 2, but our transition was really smooth. :) My kids are 21 months apart and DD is great with her brother.<br /> She has the occasional freak out when he cries and I try to get him, she mimics his cry, wants a diaper change when he gets one.. but 90% of the time she's good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574306 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 01:36:50 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 574306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StbHisMrs: Ours won't be two under two... they'll be 25-months apart, but I also have the same worries! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574299 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 01:22:22 +0000 mamabird 574299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want my kids super close and this also makes me rethink our decisions every so often. I know lots of people who do it and its crazy for a while, but then you have kids that are close in age, hopefully best friends, and great playmates :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574294 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 01:20:06 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 574294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our two under two thrived. It was a bit chaotic for a little while, but a whole lot of fun! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574289 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 01:16:19 +0000 autumnlove 574289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Superhero: @mrbee: Good to know! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574286 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 01:12:13 +0000 mrbee 574286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Superhero: I totally agree! At least, that was our experience.</p> <p>I think if we had baby #2 now (when Charlie is 3 years plus), it'd be so much harder. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574284 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 01:10:07 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 574284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think that having them close is easier for the older sibling initially. They aren't old enough to be jealous and can't express themselves well enough to be hurtful about it. They just kind of adapt and go with the flow. At least that was our experience. Older kids seem to get more upset about the big change in their lives. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574279 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 01:07:43 +0000 autumnlove 574279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm worrying too! My girls will be almost 16 months apart and I hope it is a easy transition for my LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574278 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 01:06:58 +0000 mrbee 574278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StbHisMrs: Charlie loved his sister right out of the gate!</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0IIyC9Vlro" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0IIyC9Vlro</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/worried-about-two-under-two#post-574269 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 01:03:54 +0000 StbHisMrs 574269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maddy is the star of the show so to say, I'm worried about what's going to happen when this baby gets here.<br /> Actually I'm worried about all the aspects! Feeding, sleeping, my sleep, space, all that stuff.. Dh thinks I'm crazy for worrying! </p>
