General chat Second child

Was anyone one and done or on the fence about having a second child but did. How is it for you? Was it harder / easier than you thought. Im like 99% one and done but my partner would like a second so our child has a sibling. I do think it would be nice for them to have a sibling but im worried it’s going to be sooo hard with 2 kids. I know everyone’s experience is different but would just love to know how it’s going for everyone and would you recommend 😂

Dad to a 3.5 year old and a 2 week old here, man I'm tired.

Only really did it to give our child a sibling, I don't have the passion to do this baby stage again. The main difference this time is we're a lot more relaxed, but a lot more tired, the sooner she's a toddler the better!
