Ok, at first things will change of course. You will be quite wrapped up and busy and everything will be new - and you'll be trying to establish a routine for your little one. You will probably be tired out to the point of zombie-ism!

But new babies do tend to sleep a lot, and I'm sure you'll find time for your 'other babies'! Everything constantly changes and you will work it out - because you want to. Good luck to you all! Sally + Harry x
Totally agree. By necessity - newborn babies take up MOST of your time.

But, if you love your dogs, and I'm sure you do - you will MAKE some time for them.

My son was born in July and we were out strolling the neighborhood as soon as possible - with my little Maltese in tow. When my son would sleep - I would throw the ball down the hall for Casper. So, it definitely can be done with a bit of juggling. I didn't have much help either; hopefully, you will.

Casper wasn't my baby anymore though; he was the older 'big brother'. He did have to take a big backseat early on. But newborns don't stay newborns forever and wasn't long before we were all going for walks, picnics, etc.

Good Luck.
