I'm mum of twins who are now 2 and a half and I've just had another baby (6 weeks). I really thought that after twins one would be easy (or at least a bit easier) but I'm really, really exhausted and feel that I'm failing miserably in terms of looking after all 3 properly now.
I'm EBF but finding the time to feed calmly and properly is almost impossible with the DTs running around (I EBF the DTs for 8 months so I'm used to exhaustion - but I thought feeding a single baby would be SO much easier...)
Also (and perhaps this is the main issue) DS is such a demanding baby. I literally can't put him down so spend most of the day holding him while he screams and trying (and failing) to spend proper time with the girls. Oh and getting out the house seems like an impossible feat only to be managed when DH is around!
Not sure why i'm posting really - just would love some tips/encouragement from mums who've had twins then another....
