I have defo found 1-2 the hardest, trying 2 juggle 2 is very hard, mind u my youngest is only 7 weeks old so hoping it will get easier as time goes on.

0-1 hard
1-2 fine, not so tough for me (and DD was a very easy baby compared to DS) but came as a bit of a shock to DH...

Haven't tried 2-3 but everyone who has seems to warn us off having three...

0-1 Was wonderful. DD was a very easy,sleepy baby so apart from 1st time mum wobbles, it was fab.

1-2 Worse than 0-1 but only as DS is not as laid back as DD.

2-3 We are trying to decide at the minute about 3 but I think the 3rd will just slot in.

It obviously depends what type of babies they are and age gaps (there is a 3.5 gap between mine) and babies are always more work than older children so by the time a 3rd comes along the 2nd is more independant. This might just be wishful thinking though.

1-2 esp with a small gap.

0 - 1 was the hardest for me.
1 - 2 was tiring at times, but not too bad.
Have no personal experience of 2-3 though!
