3 under 3 anyone???

Does anyone have 3 kids under the age of 3? I found out I'm preg and when I have this baby, my oldest will be 2 1/2, then my other one will be 17 mos.  I am kind of starting to worry. Is/has anyone gone thru this before? Any suggestions to make things go smoother??

I have 2 under 3 right now so not quite the same boat but this is what's helped me.

Accept all the help that's offered.

Ask for help when you need it.

Find some small way to treat yourself every day(flavored coffee creamer in my morning coffee- yum)

Remember that you are a strong capable woman and you CAN do this!

If they are not already, get your two little ones on a regular bedtime before the baby comes.

Hope this helps! Congrats! and good luck!

Hi,

I currently have a 25 month old, a 10 month old and we're having #3 in July!! We had hoped to wait for a while before expanding again but were told that if we did our chances for the family we want (4 kids) would not be possible.

Hubby works 2 jobs but he does so much to help around the house too, which is a blessing!! Get your husband to help you as much as he can and don't worry if he doesn't do things exactly the same way you do...at least he's making an effort to help!!

Also get other family members to help you whenever you need it don't hesitate to ask for help!!

Good Luck and congrats on your new (soon to arrive) bundle of joy!!

Hi i have three under 2 rght now.  At first you may be a little tired but them you just get use to it and it all seems natural and you just would have it no different.

since i have gone throught it before with three under two is just right off hand make everything a schedule...... its o lt easier that way, and when nap time comes nap them together. Also take a little time each day just for one on one evern if its just a cuddle or a story in mamas lap. Oh and nap when they do thats the best time to rest. even tho there will be a million things to get done. good luck and congrats.....

I don't have any advice but I find myself in a similar situation.  I have a 28 month old, an 11 month old and I am pregnant again.  My oldest will turn 3 right when the baby is due.
