you are a mother even if you just one kid. Your first child is the one who you experience parenthood with for the first time. A mom of two just makes you a mom of two kids it doesn't make you a better mom. We don't have our parents to help at all . Going through once was enough and we love having just our daughter. I am an only child my self and i am not alone. I have my husband and my kid. My husband doesn't even talk to his brother and they never played together.
