I have no specific advice on managing 2 kids as I only have one child. I will say that mothers guilt will be there no matter what! I'm sure you're a wonderful mum, the fact you worry about keeping both kids happy shows this. Mums are so hard on ourselves, you don't see dad's getting daddy guilt nearly as often as mum's because so much is expected of mum's. I sometimes feel guilty that I've chosen to have one child and he won't have siblings. Be kind to yourself mama and just do what you can do, your kids will feel your love.
