New Here...Question About Family Size
| Tue, 05-29-2007 - 9:46pm |
Hey everyone~ I am a SAHM to two little girls (and a third due in July). I was wondering for those of you with four or more children, how different is it going from three to four. With this third baby coming we have really been talking about wether we are done or want to have one more (we get pregnant very easily), and so I was looking for a little advice from you ladies. What are the biggest differences between having three and four children? Is it that much harder? (I mean you're already outnumbered, right?) What are the best parts and hardest parts? Any special considerations when there are more than three kids that we might not have thought of? thanks so much!!!

Hi there!
I am due w/ #3 in two-ish weeks, so this is a great post for me to find. I have always wanted a larger family, coming from a family of seven. I keep asking mom how she did it once we outnumbered her and she says, "Oh, you guys NEVER outnumbered me." (Which is true.) Anyway, my first two were 15 1/2 months apart and this time I have a 3 yo and a 2 yo, and I expect it to be a bit easier. The two I have now play very well together and keep each other occupied, so I'm hoping that will continue once the baby is here. It was just way too hard to have two (basically) babies at the same time. The two yo is so much more independant now than his brother was when he came, so I'm hoping for the best.
Anyway, I've always wanted at least four, now I keep saying Let's just see how things go with three for a while first...
