Expecting with my third , feeling so uneasy!

[Amy990]

Hiya
Today I have found out I'm pregnant with my third about 7weeks . I have two girls 3years and 14months. With both of my pregnancies I've been happy & excited from the start but I'm a mixed bag of emotions :( . I'm not sure how I will cope, what people will think as I'm only 23.

Would love to hear some peoples situations like mine to make me feel at ease.

I'm currently carrying my first, but I work with a remarkable lady who is 27 & is the mother of 5 children; she's just back from maternity leave with the fifth now. She works full time hours and manages all of her children beautifully - there's a lot of room-sharing etc. but the main thing is they are a stable, happy family & with a bit of compromise here and there, they get along perfectly fine. As far as I'm aware, nobody has ever commented negatively about her age or the size of their family because they're obviously content together

So don't panic! It's perfectly manageable, and nobody has the right to judge you; if you feel like you can make room in your family for another child, sod what everyone else thinks. Just because they wouldn't cope, doesn't mean that you can't!
