I freaked out when I was pregnant with my 3rd (not planned) and now, of course, we can't imagine our lives without him. Your third helps you appreciate all the amazing things about a newborn. And the sweet cuddliness of a little baby. You will love it, I promise!3XMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08714963008876367395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25630313.post-59128163130918939832008-05-14T17:07:00.000-04:002008-05-14T17:07:00.000-04:00I never only had two kids, so I have no idea how t...I never only had two kids, so I have no idea how that would be. I do know for a fact that going from one child to three is a huge adjustment...but that is because twins are hard no matter how you do it!

BUT, I have witness many many friends with 1, 2, and 3 and some even 4 kids..and from what I see, the key is to have the older kids a part of the baby's life. Dur! That sounds stupid. What I mean is have them involved..have them help out..ok if that makes any sense..It just isn't coming out the way I want...My brother and sister-in-law I'm sure are goign through the same exact "thought" process you are!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02934698044637715137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25630313.post-60087951733629584682008-05-13T15:14:00.000-04:002008-05-13T15:14:00.000-04:00I only have one, but we are starting to plan for t...I only have one, but we are starting to plan for the next one soonish. I am freaking out about how I am going to handle and love another as much as my daughter. Have to say it is comforting to hear that it is apparently a 'normal' thing to wonder.<BR/><BR/>Don't worry to, you are a wonderful and I know will continue to be.Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11513684432169094797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25630313.post-89694834226220317782008-05-13T13:25:00.000-04:002008-05-13T13:25:00.000-04:00I think the hardest part of going from 2 to 3 kids...I think the hardest part of going from 2 to 3 kids is when I go grocery shopping! It is hard to find a cart that will hold 3 kids and groceries! Other from that, it wasn't too bad. Now that my youngest is 2, I'm finding it harder only because there are 3 now that are fighting for my time AND energy! As much as I try to make everyone equal someone always seems to feel left out. Knowing you and how you are, you will be completely fine.

I have 3 kids, but I went from having one 4 year old, to having one 4 year old and an 18 month old when Chris and I married and then 7 months later, Alyssa was born. The transition was probably easier for me since Haley was not a baby, she was a toddler, but even after Alyssa was born, it wasn't that bad. <BR/><BR/>Your kids are older so they will be a big help to you and they are more independent, so all the attention that a newborn requires will probably be a bit easier.Rachel (Crazy-Is)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05786360241354496729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25630313.post-46758009934048782142008-05-13T11:58:00.000-04:002008-05-13T11:58:00.000-04:00Hmmm...probably not what you want to hear, but 2 t...Hmmm...probably not what you want to hear, but 2 to 3 was the hardest for me. My husband and I were outnumbered and going out got much tougher. Now, though, a few years past the baby stage, and it is back to being easy.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16478675174493369122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25630313.post-67745617193733667722008-05-13T10:07:00.000-04:002008-05-13T10:07:00.000-04:00I'm terrified of going from 1 to 2 so, the thought...I'm terrified of going from 1 to 2 so, the thought of 2 to 3?
