Confessions of a Rockin mom #28: Fears related to having more children

We were overjoyed when we found out that I was expecting a sibling for Everett. And when we learned Liam was a little boy, we couldn’t believe how blessed we were. Two little boys…brothers! For 9 months we waited patiently and happily for little Liam’s arrival. But I’ll have to confess…the night before I was induced with Liam, I broke down a little bit.

After 9 months, it dawned on me that it wouldn’t be just the three of us anymore. How would I manage a newborn and all of Everett’s therapies and school activities? How was I going to balance work and family with two little ones with different developmental needs? Would a new baby take away from Everett’s quality of life? Will I love this baby as much as Everett? What had we done?!?! This fear makes me lol now, and was totally unwarranted (and probably hormonal). Even though these sweet brothers have their ups and downs (no pun intended!), they complete each other and our sweet little family. This photo is one that marks the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Here’s to brothers :).
