I am 37 and found out that I'm pregnant with baby #3. It wasn't planned (which is ironic considering it took over 3 years to conceive our first). I love my two boys (ages 2 and 4.5) more than anything but there are (often) days when I feel like I can hardly handle two so I am really stressed when I think about adding another baby. My husband is trying to be supportive but I know he wishes this didn't happen, as he is already stressed with work and juggling our boys. Just wondering if any ladies with 3 felt overwhelmed when they found out they were pregnant (whether it was planned or unplanned)? I feel guilty that something that should be happy news is causing me so much anxiety and that I am currently wishing it didn't happen. Any others who have felt this way?
