Baby no3

[Luru24]

Hi,
Im new to mumsnet, so please be kind.
I have just found out today I may potentially be pregnant with no3! I say potentially because I am only 8dpo, I'm not sure what really made me test this morning, but I did and when I brazenly looked at the test I nearly fell over, a very light obviously pink line
I have spent my day at work panicking about it and I'm not sure why, I have two beautiful children already ds1 is nearly 6 and dd1 is nearly 2 (Christmas baby!) so they would be well spaced. I am young nearly 29 and in a happy long term relationship. We are financially stable, house etc. I suppose my question is.. Did anyone else freak out? It's not like we haven't thought or talked about a third but it was always a maybe not a when. We have started to feel like we have a bit of us time again recently and have really enjoyed it (obviously and im scared we will lose it again. Any advice on your journey with welcoming a third would be welcome

I'm feeling the exact same I'm having baby number 3 and scared that my happy little family or 4 might change, and itl change in ways we might not like, I have started to see all the positives though like I will love being a mum to a 3rd especially when the other two are at school and I have that time to bond just me and baby no3 and I no they will love having another sibling to play with, I'm usually such a negative person but recently Iv really been trying hard to look at the positives of having baby no3 because I might aswell get used to it now before its born no what I mean. I even keep showing my two children the scan pics and telling them they are going to have a sister or brother and I'm just generally trying to get us all used to the idea so when the baby does come it's not so much of a shock to the kids because they have got used to me going on about baby no3. I no itl bring us all closer tho and we will all adore him/her when it here and Ino itl make us stronger as a family, through good times and bad. Positivity is the key I guess :) x

By the way I did freak out majorly and I cried for a few days lol but eventually I got used to the idea and seeing the baby at the scans and preparing for baby no3 has lifted me so much and now I'm so excited to have a 3rd, we all cant wait for it to get here xx
