Mothers of three was it hard going from 2 kids to 3?

Question

i am soon going to have my third just wondering how your experience was

Answer 1

well i went from 1-3 lol.

i had twins!

yes it was hard, especially because i was only 17 but you manage.

im now pregnant with the forth and i dont think i will have anymore for a while if not ever.

but we'll see how it goes.

overall i dont think that it changes that much.

good luck and congrats :)

EDIT: ok guys now as for the thumbs down yes i know i was a young mum BUT i was still with my HUSBAND (the father) and he passed away 1 month ago, so cut me some slack.

Answer 2

ive got 4.... when you get number three i is no harder really, just another set of clothes to iron and another plate to fill with food. dont worry , i went through the same thoughts as you as having 1 child to 2 can be ALOT harder but having 2 children to 3 is a piece of cake as you'll already have a routine going and number 3 just slots right in!!

hope this helps, chin up as its not that much a difference (after 2 kids your head is moosed anyway lol ;0)

hope all is well x*x

Answer 3

i'm still in the transition from 1 to 2. we're ttc with lots of anxious feelings!!! so i'm not very good in this section! i'm sure that you'll be fine! most of the stress nowadays is because we set unrealistic goals and limits to our everyday life - your kitchen won't always be **** n span, your bathroom won't look like those in magazines - but who cares. do whatever you have to do and feel like doing, and when it gets tiring, sit down and have  a coffee!!

Answer 4

awesome, breathtaking, extroadinary.

i am 12.

Answer 5

It was hard at first, almost as tough as going from 1 to 2, but mine are really close in age, so that makes it harder.

Once you get into a routine things settle down, it's a matter of finding your feet.

It's also really variable, it depends on the age of the kids, how clingy they are, etc.  You'll be fine, don't worry.  Congratulations and good luck!

Answer 6

In all honesty, three was no big deal.  The switch from two to three was hardly noticable to my husbnad and I.  

Looking back I would say that going from one to two was more of a change, even though I don't really think that was a big change either.

I think you'll find it to be a pretty smooth transition.

Answer 7

hard at first.. but you;ll enjoy it at last....

Answer 8

I found it quite an easy transition personally. I think once you are used to two kids, then one more really isn't a bigger deal. It is a lot easier than going from one to two.

Mind you, I have 3 boys, so maybe having all the same s*x makes things a bit easier, but overall I think you will do fine! As long as you are organised and can get things into a bit of a routine it should be fine.

Congrats and lots of luck!  

Answer 9

I guess it depends on the ages of your other children, but I found my life turned to chaos adding the third one to the mix.  My other 2 were 4yo and 19months. For me it was a much tougher transition than it had been from one child to two. It didn't seem to take too long though to get used to it.  Now I have number 4 on the way and I am wondering what that is going to be like!!  Good Luck with your bub.
