3 under 3?

[babymartin2]

Currently have a 22 month old and a 10 week old and I think im pregnant again!

First two were planned, this time we've just not been careful enough (our own stupidity)

I wouldn't get a termination, I was forced into one by an abusive partner when I was younger so I wouldn't do it again, and would feel so blessed to have a third child

I think I'm just looking for experience/positivity to let me know that I can do this!

Will he look at a 2.5 year old, 10 month old and newborn!

Any stories of 3 under 3 or even just two within one year? Thanks in advance!

4 under 5........mad joy, complete chaos and so much fun....and exhaustion!
whatever happens you will cope
Mine are nearly grown up now......try not to sweat the small stuff and enjoy whet you can, it's over in a flash (or as my wise friend said the days are long but the years are short!!!!!)

3 under 2. Twins when eldest was 1 year old. Ex-husband worked long hours and was dangerously useless at parenting when he was around (eg left knives lying around, left one DC alone on edge of a table when changing them so they rolled onto a hard stone floor, etc etc), no family support whatsoever.

It was v v tough and I got sick of people constantly asking how I did it, telling me how strong I was etc when I really felt at times I couldn't cope. But I DID cope and it got gradually easier.

I ditched the ex when the DC were 7 and 8 and the whole thing was so much easier and I loved being a single parent to them. They are now 13 and 14 and I still love every second, even though it's hard work (no support at all from ex and complex medical and special needs involved) but they are my world and I really enjoy being their mum.

@Imperfect10 @alargeoneforme

thank you both! sorry to hear about the troubles with your ex, glad you're rid of them!

I'm worrying because we only have a 2 bed flat at the moment but will be looking to move next year so will only be making do for a couple of months or so, but we'll see!

thanks again! x

I had a 3 year old, a 21 month old and a newborn and was on my own by that point

It worked out fine

I was the middle child of 3 under 2. My poor mother!
She went on to have 3 more but with bigger gap between them.
We all get on really well.

Well good luck. I'm due in September when I'll have a 33 month old and a 19 month old. I enjoyed the first two close together, and keep telling myself it will work out in the end.....
