Singer Elton John and his partner David Furnish say parenting the second time round is much easier.
The couple, who already have one child, two-year-old Zachary, became parents for the second time in January when their youngest son Elijah was born, reported Telegraph.
"It feels a lot easier, a lot more comfortable - the routine is already in place with Zachary in a way, and all the stuff that was so scary the first time around isn't quite so scary the second time around," Furnish said.
The duo said that having "great support" around them in a good nanny and paediatrician has made parenting a lot easier.
The couple made headlines around the world when they became parents for the first time in 2010 with the help of surrogate mother. Their civil partnership was formalised in 2005.
