Why did I do this?

All I wanted was 2 children. My husband and I decided that our little Ivf miracle one was perfect and then agreed we’d try for another naturally. We conceived quickly and here I am with 2 under 2. I got exactly what we wanted. Now I’m sitting here, a week in, in tears thinking what have I done? I’m back to square one with sleepless nights and friggin nappies. Tell me it’s just the baby blues mixed with mummy guilt of taking time away from my toddler. I’m seriously so devastated that I made this decision. I love the new baby but why wasn’t I satisfied with what I had? I cannot stop crying.

Please contact your health nurse, what you’re feeling is normal but you need to talk it out :)

I agree with above person. It is normal but it is really good to talk about it.
