Got a new one on the way :) question for parents of 2+ kids:

- what are the highest-impact logistic hacks I can think about in advance?
- especially in the first few months, what was your experience with childcare (babysitter v nanny v inhouse etc)

Apologies if this was asked already but how old is the first?

I have 2 adopted children that my wife and I brought home from the hospital after birth. For context, the 1st (boy) is 11 and the 2nd (girl) is 4. This is a little different from your situation, but it should work.
1. The firstborn will feel less significant no matter how hard you try to not make it so; its just the nature of the situation. Try to include the first child in the baby duties (obi not babysitting) like feeding, helping with the bath, story time, etc. This makes the first child really feel connected and responsible for the care of the baby. This helps to make them feel significant and have less animosity towards the second.
