Totally personality dependent. Our oldest was super chill and the second was extremely energetic so for us it did feel like going from 1 to infinity 
. We still wanted a third though and that was a blur of exhaustion. Now youngest is 16 and it’s awesome having three!!
Some parents have told me the second kid feels like 1.5 and others say it’s like having 10. Metaphorically speaking.https://twitter.com/kickeye/status/1081454498499817472 …

I love the description you used for your youngest. We have a wonderful blur of exhaustion but what a ride!

The second one is easier than the first because the older child will distract and entertain the baby. Three is a bigger adjustment-you are outnumbered!

Surely these parents aren’t also “experts” that oppose the negative consequences of instituting steel tariffs

The biggest difference between having 1 child and 2, or 4 as my wife and I have. Is with just 1 child, you can choose to keep your priorities the same with minor adjustments. With multiple children, your children must become your #1 priority if you wish to raise them well.

Parenting a second child is somewhere between not giving AF and really appreciating how kid #1 has it together.

You just move from double team to man to man coverage. #3 child starts zone coverage but the older siblings eventually help out. It’s all about mindset which you know very well. We have 3, raising a family is great work & fun!

We had twins when we went for child number two, so we went from one to three overnight! They’re a handful but it’s so great when they all play together and keep each other company.pic.twitter.com/siKonea4Uf

Have 5 and it is an adventure. Literally meet new people and watch/guide their development. Up and downs of daily family life but I have never felt more whole or had more focus.
