Hey IM'S,
I'm wondering people's experience going from 2 kids to 3? We've just been totally surprised with baby number 3 and my youngest son is 14 months - big brother is 3 years old. I always wanted a third but I guess it just couldn't wait and wanted to join us super earlier than planned ;) I'm excited, nervous, shocked, worried, every mixed emotion possible I am feeling. I'm interested in time management, how you coped and just how much interference a third baby made if any? I want the raw truth lol. Anything you wish someone had told you before the 3rd bundle of joy joined your family? Coping mechanisms, I want to hear it all haha!
Thanks xx

Its alot easier to go from 2 to 3 than 1 to 2. The first few weeks are the hardest to get set into a routine after that its fine. I find the hardest part is finding a car that fits all the car seats
We've already got the car lol love my big cx-9. I'm hoping it's easy, I found 1 child to 2 was a breeze so this gives me good vibes haha. Thanks x
My mum had 3 kids. I was 4, next was 18mths when number 3 popped out.
This was back in the day when you only had cloth nappies (so two were in nappies for at least awhile) and you had to rinse them by hand to get the poop off before putting them in the washing machine. There was no dryer so had to go on the line.
There was only one car, so mum used to have to walk into town with the three of us to do the shopping and catch a cab home with the three of us and the food!
If my mum did that, you've got this!
