I think it's probably about a bit of everything... I don't have any other children obviously, but it's always more difficult with the second one... You have less time to spend with your other child for one, and yes, most of the moms I've talked to who have other children are much less worried all the time about little things. I'm sure not dealing with hormones helps, too, and the worry you might lose her...
I know I worry all the time, but again, I have no child experience, I've lost a lot of people in my life and I'm used to having bad things happen, so it's probably understandable. I never went crazy about every little whimper, but I think it's a twin thing. Having two, you know one of them is going to end up crying at some point while you tend the other, and there's just so much you can do about it, but finish tending to the first baby asap first or you end up with two crying babies.
