I'm not going to lie to you and tell you that it will be easy.  It will be really challenging.  2 of mine are that close in age as well.  But once you get through that difficult period, your 2 little ones will be the best of friends.

One suggestion I will make is to get some type of sling so that you can "wear" the newborn if you need to.  It will free up your hands to help take care of your older child.

Good luck and try not to worry.  I know it's hard but I promise it will be okay and you will get through it.
