I will have 3 children soon 4 years, 18 months and of course my newborn. My concern is that my 18m will still be needing me for so much and is already showing signs of aggression towards me when I cannot give him 100% attention. When I had my 2nd my first was nearly 3 and I could reason with him and he was such a super guy. How does it work with close together babies?

Mine are 11 months apart and I was terrified of how I would juggle them. There were definitely rough moments where it seemed like everyone (including the dogs) needed me at the same moment, but it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Elena wasn't aggressive toward the baby, but she didn't know to be gentle. I knew I couldn't leave them together in the same room by themselves ever, so I would just take one of them if I had to go to the bathroom or get something from another room. I think it helped some because Elena loved being with me, so would have no problem following me.
I hope it goes smoothly for you and your kiddos adjust easily. It does get better and it wasn't nearly as hard as I had imagined it would be! Good luck!
