2 under 2

I had 2 under 1 lol! About to have 3 under 3. Def exhausted and exhausting. I'm honestly just surviving. How are you doing?

@Taylor I'm just so tired towards the end of the day. Third trimester is kicking my ass 😭

I have a 20 month old and I’ll be 32 weeks on Sunday. It is very hard keeping up with him and surviving pregnancy, but we have no choice but to push through 😮‍💨…it’s definitely not for the weak lol

@Victoria my babies will be 13m apart 😭
Any tips on getting them to nap at the same time?

@Shadé not 👏🏽 for👏🏽 the 👏🏽weak! 👏🏽
Lord help us 🥲

I know you didn't ask me about them napping at the same time, but I do have some advice! My 2.5 and 1.5 year old have to share a room since we moved. My 1.5 yo still cries for her pacifier at night. But they get used to one another and their cries. Try putting the down the same time. Whether that's putting them to bed a few min later or earlier. This will help to sync their schedules. But just like said, the transition from 1-2 was the hardest for me. I truly am not worried about adding a 3rd to my circus here. You get a routine and established the more you have, then you just add the rest in on it haha

@Taylor I didn't even think to ask until Victoria mentioned it 😅
The plan is to have at least 4w of help split between my husband and mom. It's just a matter of getting them to help me the way I need. My mom would let my baby sleep all day if he wanted to. 🙄

Honestly, I let my babies sleep as long as they want. Especially if they are newborns. They will wake if they are hungry. But, longer stretches mean the closer they'll be getting to sleeping through the night! I personally don't have a problem woth that but it is so very hard to have help the way you want. Just remember no one is mom other than mom. They can't and won't do it the exact same, but they can try to get close! You'll be just fine I promise

thanks 😊

My son just turned one on July 12 and I'm due September 17th. It's a struggle.

@Victoria on a good day my baby naps 2 hours straight, on a bad day he might take 2 30 minute naps 😭

I'll have a 4 year old and a 16 month old, and adding a newborn in September. I'll have 2 under 2

@Isabelle how did you survive? How was your transition?

@Mariah lots of family support and routine is how I survived. The transition from 1 kid to 2 kids wasn't bad, just had to learn a whole lot of patience. I think the transition from 2 kids to 3 kids, especially 2 kids under 2, will definitely be harder, but I'll eventually find a routine that works and it will get better. My oldest son has a developmental delay so I had to learn tons of patience very quickly. I just try to take time to myself every day and try to stay calm

@Isabelle part of my motherhood plan was to have my mom here she keeps saying she's going to move closer but something always happens resulting in delays. I never imagined doing this journey without my own mother 😭

My son will turn 2 about two months before I’m due with his sibling, so they’ll be 26 months apart. I’m in my 2nd trimester so thankfully the nausea has slowed down but I’m always exhausted. Luckily my son sleeps well at night but during the day he has sooo much energy..it’s hard to keep up 😩

@Kayyy✨ do 2 year old still take naps? Cuz if not. Idk how ima survive lol

Yesss, he naps for 2 hours but it literally recharges him so he can wake up & run through the house like a tornado lol. Luckily as he gets older I’ve noticed he’ll sit still for small periods & watch something educational on tv or play with his toys
