I'm sure the idea of having two kiddos just 12 months apart is pretty daunting. However, it is perfectly doable if you decide to pursue it. I have two daughters who are 18 months apart... and we are expecting our third daughter when my oldest two will be 27months and 9months old. We are scared to death, but definitely excited at the same time. Our initial plan (before we found out about our pregnancy) was to adopt a toddler when our youngest dd was 2 - so we were hoping to create the situation you just described.
Sharing for a two year old is never easy. My dd refuses to share anything with her sister and takes all toys away from her. I just keep correcting her over and over again. Eventually she'll get it.
As for attachement disorder, it could be a sign, yes. However, if she has successfully attached to someone before, then chances are really good that with some effort and support, she'll attach to you as well.
Good luck!
