3 kids under 4?

Anyone experience this? Because it looks like this will be us. I got a BFP yesterday, 1 day before my missed period. But I had every symptom under the sun so I tested anyway. It looks like my DD will be around 3/29. My oldest DS will be 3 yrs 10 months, my younger DS will have just turned 2- literally, his birthday is 3/25. This pregnancy was planned so we know we want this, but 3 very small children just seems so daunting, and just wondering how others handled it. TIA!

Me!! Almost exact same age difference. My oldest was 3 years 8 months, middle turned 2 12/29, baby born 1/2. . I survived and also worked full time (partially from home) It is so doable, especailly since they are all still into the same stuff when they are little. My DH and I divide and conquer a lot, especially when they were little, he would bath the older two, or keep then occupied while I tended to baby or vice versa. DH is also very hands on and daring (like take all 3 food shopping when they were very little or anywhere by himself- I secretly think he loved the attention he got!) They are now 5,7 and 9 and somedays I miss when they were all babies. Congratulations!

I had 3 under 3 and soon will have 4 kids ages 4 and under.

My first was 2 years, 2 months when my twins were born.

My twins will be 2 years, 6 months when my 4th is born.

I also work FT outside of the home. It's definitely difficult but I wouldn't trade it for the world. They are all at really fun ages now and have such an incredible friendship and bond.

I have triplets which is a little different than having kids at different stages but I think you will be fine. Mine are 2 now and I love it. The hardest part for me was transporting three non walkers - backbreaking! Your three and two year old have some independence and can get around and I to their car seats etc and the baby will be immobile for a while :) congrats and good luck!
