Our son is now 8 months old, and i've always wanted my children to be as close as me and my sister, we're best friends. But how do i convince my husband???? i have just come off the pill, our daughter is 9/10months old now, so when the next baby arrives she will be 18+months depending on how quick it happens. we have also been worrying about if she will feel left out or jealous, but keep reminding myself of friends with kids with similar age gap and how much they get on and how much the elder loved the new baby soo much. also this article has really helped put my mind at rest about it all and can look forward to hopefully falling pregnant again soon :) ey all im expecting my second child and feel a little worried that my 1st boy of 5years will feel left out! i abosulutly love him dearly and ive got enough
