You don’t realize how easy one child is until you have two.

I've got a boy who jus turned 2 and a second boy due March 1. I'm pretty pumped that they will grow up so close in age, but I'm dreading the lack of sleep for a while

First one is a 10 month old son. Needless to say it was not planned at all. Any parents out there with any advice or insight???? Thanks for the pull out jokes in advance.



Kids are a good thing. My advice is to raise them right.

Our two girls were 22 months apart. First 6 months of our second were rough. We waited a couple years for number three, and it is was much easier with our third than it was our second.

You will adjust, and a couple years down the road they will be thick as thieves. Our girls are constantly entertaining one another and cracking each other up (and driving each other crazy).

Also I didn’t read through all the replies, but at least you’ve had sex this year unlike that other guy.

Nah, huge difference in being out-numbered vs. having 1 parent for each kid.

As a father of twins, you've got it easy.

It's the same shite you've already done, now you've just have more of it.

HAVE FUN!!

Mine are less than 2 years apart. I don't remember ever being that busy with 2, granted I was drunk all of the time. But I still don't remember any problems.

And my 2nd one was born exactly 9 months after my birthday.

2 is so much harder than 1. We wanted 3, but nope. No more.

Mine are 16 months apart. 3 and a half year old boy and 2 year old girl. We divided daily duties and regularly attacked them so we could have some free/parent/couple time at the end of the day. Date night is pretty awesome now that they are old enough to be with a babysitter. Do this when yall are comfortable leaving them. We dont live near any family so that was tough. Its crazy for a while, but its getting easier each day. Glad to be done with bottles, formula, and diapers will be in the future. $15k/year daycare does suck but hey, I get a raise in 3-2 years! (good public education near me) And with having a boy and a girl, I got snipped in October

Wow, 10 months after the first child and your wife is already putting out? My twins are two now and we're up to once every two or three months now.

Congrats!

2 is easy. Man to man defense. The wheels came off for us at 3. Not kidding. Zone defense, 14 years of chaos, but it is a blast. Right now one is in college, 2 in high school. They are very close and will be for life, and that is cool.
