I have 4 DC - 7,3,3, 2 months. So many things are wonderful and I love them to bits.
BUT the workload worries me a bit... at the moment DC4 kind of just gets toted round in the sling like a parcel. I probably don't get quite enough 1:1 time with the twins because they'd mostly rather not be separate. At the moment I cope with the household stuff, but I'm on maternity leave. How on earth will I stay on top of the mountain of laundry that gets produced during school term when I'm back at work?!?!?
So please, mums of large families. What advice do you give for staying on top of everything without neglecting your kids?
(DH is NOT great at household stuff - he grew up in a really disgusting house and honestly can't understand why I mind what he sees as "a bit of mess"... this does increase the pressure on me somewhat and is not likely to improve much. It's not LTB territory though)
