Before you had a child, did you wonder if you could be as good a parent to a boy as you were to your daughter (I did), or could love #2 as much as #1 (a friend mentioned that), or anything like that?

I'm not sure yet... I have one, and I never doubted my ability to love her - just to parent well. I think I'm doing at least okay on that count so far... but a second intimidates me. I feel like I'd have a lot less time for my first, and like she'll be jealous and neglected just because babies take so much time!

- Our daughter was 4 when we had our son, old enough to explain to her that babies take a lot of time. Plus, she's very easygoing and happy, so there was a minimum of "you spend too much time with him."

- Thanks! Actually... that makes me feel better. My daughter's 3 1/2 and will be a bit over 4 when the next one shows up. :-D

No not really, I did worry about being a good parent, and I still do even though I know I am a good one!
As for the 2nd questions, well I am finding out right now! I must say I did find it hard to take the new one into my life, but now I have no problem and I love them both completely!
