Any FTWM have 3 kids? Pleas tell me...
Is it ridiculously crazy juggling it all. My DH and I think we're going for e 3rd, but I have to work. I'm also nervous about the change from 2-3 kids. Was it really hard or harder going from1-2? TIA!!

i have 3 kids and work full time - i never went from 2 to 3 because i have twins and went from 1 to 3. For me getting a nanny was cheaper then 3 in daycare and a nanny made my life easier.

Re: Any FTWM have 3 kids? Pleas tell me...
Well by #3 you know a lot of tricks etc you didnt know before hand, but juggling can be tricky. My kids are 3 different ages so they do 3 different things at 3 different schools, have 3 different sets of friends etc. I wish I had them closer in age. Anyway, its an exhausting morning, but it can be done :) My grandma had 11 and was a nurse! LOL

Re: Any FTWM have 3 kids? Pleas tell me...
I have 3 and work FT. My husband travels a lot for work. We have a nanny. It was cheaper then putting 3 in daycare. She also helps me keep my sanity..... I think it is a lot easier having her. I don't have to get 3 kids out of the house in the morning. I'm lucky and can work 7:45 - 3:45. I'm not sure what I will do when I have 3 kids in sports, but right now it is manageable. You just do it. Somedays are rougher then others. Somedays everything gets done when/how you want it to - most days it doesn't. I just deal with it, and make the priorities the priorities.....

Re: Any FTWM have 3 kids? Pleas tell me...
I went from 1 to 3 (twins)... All go to daycare. A nanny would be cheaper and easier for me however me and MrDrMatt feel the benefits of daycare outweigh everything else (for us. many disagree).
I am super organzied, that is the only way to get through the first years of chaos.

We have 3 - going from 1-2 was tougher for me then 2-3 -the boys are 10,7, and 3 - the older 2 are very involved in sports - so the little guy has learned to make lots of friends -- my job is demanding at times - lots of hours at set times a year - but it works.

This has been me for the last 6 months. I just want to know and I'm afraid I'll regret not having a third!
