Hi Mums,

3 UNDER 3?!?
I have just found out I am pregnant.

I have been on the pill so this definitely wasn't planned.

I have a 4 month old and a 22 month old and I'm terrified and an emotional wreck. I haven't told anybody. ( incl husband)

Does anyone else have 3 under 3 ( 2.5)

Very nervous and scare mumma x

been in your shoes it's tough but doable if you areorganised and can get support, hope dh is on board with this aspect and not a mn dodgy dad.

No, but had 2 under 2, moving house, a full time job and no family support in this country. Doable - the crisis point is short lived and at least you'll be an experienced mum and dad.

Congrats. I havent but I have 13mth age gap between my children and it was harder going from none to 1. Early years are always the toughest but you'll be fine once out the other side. 😊 good luck.

Well I don't have my own but I am achildminder and usually have 3 under 3 most days. I know it's not the same, because I get my weekends and evenings to myself, but it is manageable if you are organised.

My mum did and a friend of mine did, tough but doable. this it,s nice when they are older to be close together.

My dp and his brother only have 10 months between them and his mum managed with both of them and 2 other children.
If its what you want, you will manage because you have to, but think very hard about whether it really is what you want.
