Welcome to You Plus 2 Parenting–the ultimate second time parenting destination for information, education and support as you prepare to expand your family. If you are visiting this site, it’s likely that you have either added a new baby to your family or are pregnant with #2 and are experiencing all the exhilarating and exciting feelings that come along with parenthood. You’re also probably feeling a bit exasperated about the idea of managing two children while trying to maintain some semblance of sanity, structure and routine in your life. It can all feel extremely overwhelming!

Going from One to Two is a BIG CHANGE in so many ways!

Second time parents feel like they should already know how to “do it all” when really it’s a massive adjustment and there are new logistics and challenges to think about that are rarely discussed.   Many second time parents ask themselves:

• What can I do to help prepare my older child for the new arrival and ease the adjustment of becoming a big sibling?
• How will I manage the dinner/bath/bedtime routine when two little ones demand my undivided attention?
• We have no bedroom for a second baby!  How can I teach my children to sleep in the same room?
• My older child is potty training or starting school right when I’m due with #2!  How do I navigate all these changes at once?
