2 kids in a 2 bed house

I just don’t think realistically we will be able to move anytime soon. Also aware we’re not getting any younger. Such a hard situation to be in. Thank you for sharing your experience- I hope things have worked out ok now? Xx

will you then have two children in the house? That’s the same as us really. I just am struggling with not having another baby just because of our house size. Surely in today’s situation with house prices etc others must make it work? I’m trying to find positives 🤣 xxx

The problem we have it’s really unlikely we will be able to move anytime soon, our house needs work kinda thing too. Ahh this is hard, and completely why I’ve been worried about it. It’s hard enough with a new baby and a 4 year old let alone being miserable eek xxx

I hope you don’t mind me asking but what’s your living situation like? As in rooms vs kids kinda thing? We have work that needs doing in the house too and just feeling really mixed emotions about everything at the moment with the house- but we know we want another baby so hard xx

We moved into our home in our early 20s... no plans on children ever... then boom ten years later, 2 kids in the space of 18 months.... we live in a 1 bed terraced back to back right now and just can't wait to move. We're hoping that in the next 6 months it will be possible. So yeah, right now we're in a situation of just making do for the best...

The housing situation just seems to be a thing of nightmares at the moment

thank you for sharing. That does sound tough, but I hope it’ll all work out well for you guys moving etc. I think ultimately it hasn’t put anyone else off having another baby so am going to do it. I think we’re lucky in the sense my current bedroom is big enough for the kids to share if needed and me and the husband can have the smaller room. I think you guys have all made it work although harrrrd! There’s no reason we can’t too, and just look at moving in the future maybe? I’m trying to be positive but know it’ll be hard if that makes sense? 🤣 xx

My friend has 3 kids in a 2 bed house - you just make it work x

thank you for sharing! Yeah I’ve been thinking about it and tbh I don’t think it’ll be AS bad as I’ve been worried about as we could always swap bedrooms as ours is bigger than our child’s so that can work better, it’s seeming more positive which is great! Thank you again xx

thank you for sharing this, yeah people just make it work don’t they. And hopefully one day in the future we will be able to afford somewhere bigger 🤞🏻 xx

I shared a room with my sister growing up. 3 bed house 3 kids.

Could you extend the property?

I have a 19 month old and pregnant with my second and they will be sharing a bedroom once baby needs to come out of my room. As someone else said i have a kallax unit for toys in the living room and just use clever storage in the bedroom so it isnt cluttered for example a wardrobe with 2 rails rather then 1 so u only need one, storage boxes to go under the cot etc it is possible to make it work. If u really want another baby i wouldnt not have one because of them having to share a room or space. U can make it work and when ur able to u can move. For the first few months baby can stay in with u anyway and u just adapt xx

Please don't let "stuff" stop you doing what you want with your life.

Does it mean it's harder and you have to be a bit more organised, yes. But there are FAR more important things to worry about.
As long as everyone has a bed and a few toys to call their own, kids don't care 😊

If you have a garden I would focus on getting as much good outdoor play stuff as possible and then outside they go 👋🏻
Unless it's properly freezing or chucking it down(or very hot) the garden will be your best friend 😊

Me and my fiancee have a 6 year old and I'm currently due baby no2 in December. Our house is tiny however we are making our bedroom 2 rooms eventually. You just have to make it work I wouldn't put life choices around it because life isn't supposed to be timed. I would just aim for a bigger house in the future and declutter as much as you can 😊x
