My baby was just born one week ago. Before he was born I had always wanted two children. But now, I am seriously thinking I can't handle going through raising a newborn again. I am also scared to have only one child. Help! Really depressed.

Hi dear I feel you totally. My gal is 9mo already. She has been a very fussy and bad tempered gal since birth who is also a light sleeper. In her second and third month she had never nap on own lying down anywhere for more than 20mins. I have to carry her all the time. Things are much better now as she can take longer nap but she is still someone who doesn't sleep easily. She also can't sit still for long. If I carry her I have to be walking or moving else she will cry. I have two nieces and a nephew at home so I know my gal is fussy compared to them. For you your baby is only one week old! Things are never easy in the first three months. For the first month they keep pooing and wanting to drink milk everytime they are awake. I can guarantee you it will easier to handle her after three months. Just hang in there and see what happens after this. Really have to get through the initial tough months first. Plus you are still recovering from delivery , hormones trying to balance out. It is not easy but won't be as bad later on. By then you probably want another kid :) For me one is enough because my gal is really fussy. Even my mom says so and she had looked after several babies before :p
