i haven't been on MN for a while...

i have two dd's ( dd1 2 in july, dd2 1 in august) and just found i MAY be expecting number 3. i did 3 test, 2 were faulty and didn't show anything, and a tesco test which showed a faint line at 3 mins. just done a clearblue test and im defo pregnant.

im scared shitless, how on earth will i cope with 3 babies, i struggle with my two and am soo sleep deprived it isnt even funy anymore.

just when i was in a good place, where i had my figure back, my girls were beginning to play together.

please tell me its going to be ok.

I had 3 ds in 3years, 3 months! Yes, it was tough, they were very very active boys, sometimes I wonder how I coped with the first few years - but you do, you get through it, and once 1 or more start school/pre school, things do get easier- and you get all the totally dependant baby stages over and done with quickly - and they always have other kids their own age to play with.

My 3 ds are now 16,15+13, and about to be joined by ds4!

Good luck!

i had a similar dilemma 20 weeks back when i found out i was pregnanct with DC2...at 24 and a year before emigrating!
like u said, just got to a point of sort of sanity - he just turned 2 and was becoming a lot easier and i was back to my normal thin self! then bang...its all up in the air again, after we had sold everything apart from the moses basket cos i was convinced i didnt want another one, not yet anyway!
like the others have sed, it will be really tough for a few more years and then u will be able to reap the benefits of having them all so close! just gotta get our heads down and get thru those tough years!
good luck!
