2nd son and nervous! help!

So today my mother in law texted me that she was trying to find things to buy the baby but she just gave up and ended up shopping for my first son. Im really nervous people arent going to show him as much love as my first son. Im 33 weeks and suffered really badly in the beginning with wondering if I could love him as much but once I seen his little face I was in love. Im just worried he wont get treated fairly I guess. Is it normal for family members to not be as excited about a second child? Its both sides of our family.

My sister told me that it's always different but usually the 2nd would get more attention since they are so little but I find that odd but I'm pregnant with my 2nd and they haven't really acted different about it

Everyone was so excited with my first and always asking me aboht him. This time they hardly pay attention. Im glad they love my first son the way they do, I just want them treated equal. My friend also told me its different with your 2nd child. Maybe im just being emotional! Lol
